May Day Basket

I clearly remember the May Day of the year that I was in fifth grade. That year I was faced with a challenge because of my best friend, Pam.

A new family recently had moved into our small town, and Pam was spending more and more time at their house. I felt ______ and left out.

When my mother asked me whether I would take a May Day basket to Pam’s house, I answered angrily, “Of course not!” My mother stopped what she was doing and ______ me in her arms. She told me that I would have many other friends in my lifetime.

“But Pam was my best friend ever,” I cried.

Mum told me that circumstances (环境) change and people change. She ______ that one of the great things friends can do is to give each other a chance to grow, to change and to develop into what they want to be. And sometimes, she said, that friends would ______ other people to spend time with. It’s nothing wrong with that.

She went on to say that I needed to forgive Pam for hurting me and that I could express that forgiveness (宽恕) by giving her a May Day basket.

It was a ______ decision, but I decided to give Pam a basket. I made an extra special basket of flowers with lots of yellow because that was Pam’s favorite ______. I asked my two sisters to help me deliver my basket of forgiveness. As we ______ from our hiding place, Pam picked up the flowers, pressed her face into them and said ______ enough for us to hear, “Thank you, Susie, I hoped you wouldn’t forget me!”

That day, I made a decision that changed my life: I decided to hold my friends in my heart, but not in my expectation of them, allowing them space to grow and to change – with or without me.
