5.A nurse of 78 this weekend celebrates 60years of walking the wards-and she has no plans to retire.
Jackie Reid was 18 when she started work in 1953-when the National Health Service(NHS) was just five years old-and is believed to be the oldest nurse in Britain.
The diabetes(糖尿病) specialist had to retire at 65 but returned as a nurse within two weeks and still does up to four seven-and-a-half hour shifts(轮班)each week.
Mrs Reid said:"Nursing is hard if you do it correctly but I love my job.Working for the NHS has been my life.I have no other hobbies because I have worked all my life.

Jackie has lived alone in Grays,Essex,since her husband did three years ago.
The couple have two daughters Michelle,50,and Karen,54.
Jackie added:"My youngest daughter worried about me-she doesn't think I should work as much as I do.I constantly say'don't worry about me,I'm fine',but she never believes me.I don't like the thought of giving it up and will try to keep going forever."

19.A voyaging ship was wrecked during a storm at sea and only two of the men aboard were able to swim to a small,desert-like island.Not knowing what else to do,the two survivors agreed that they had no alternativethan to pray to God.
However,to find out whose prayers were more powerful,they agreed to divide the territory between them and stay on opposite sides of the island.
The first thing they prayed for was food.The next morning,the first man saw a fruit-bearing tree on his side of the island,and he was able to eat its fruit.But the other man's parcel of land remained barren.
After a week,the first man became lonely and decided to pray for a wife.The next day,another ship was wrecked and the only survivor was a woman who swam to his side of the island.But on the other side of the island,there was nothing.
Soon thereafter the first man prayed for a house,clothes and more food.The next day,like magic,all of these things were given to him.However,the second man still had nothing.
Finally,the first man prayed for a ship so that he and his wife could leave the island,and in the morning he found a ship docked at his side of the island.
The first man boarded the ship with his wife and decided to leave the second man on the island,considering the other man unworthy to receive God's blessings since none of his prayers had been answered.
As the ship was about to leave,the first man heard a voice from Heaven booming,"Why are you leaving your companion on the island?"
"My blessings are mine alone since I was the one who prayed for them,"the first man answered."His prayers were all unanswered and so he doesn't deserve anything."
"You are mistaken!"the voice rebuked him."He had only one prayer,which I answered.If not for that,you would not have received any of my blessings."
"Tell me,"the first man asked the voice,"what did he pray for that I should owe him anything?"
"He prayed that all your prayers would be answered."
For all we know,our blessings are not the fruits of our prayers alone,but those of another praying for us.So what you do for others is more important than what you do for yourself.

6.The Doll and the White Rose
I was walking around in a mall,when I saw a cashier hand this little boy some money back.The cashier said,"I'm sorry,but you don't have enough money to buy this doll."The little boy seemed very disappointed.
I walked toward him and asked him who he wished to give this doll to."It's the doll that my sister wanted so much for Christmas.She was sure that Santa Claus would bring it to her:But Santa Claus can't bring it to her where she is now.I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she goes there."His eyes were so sad."My sister has gone to be with God.Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too,so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister."
My heart nearly stopped.The little boy looked up at me and continued,"I told Daddy to tell Mommy not to go yet.I need her to wait until I come back from the mall."
I quickly reached for my wallet and said,"Suppose we check again,just in case you do have enough money for the doll."
"OK,I hope I do have enough,"he said.I put some of my money with his without him seeing and we started to count it.There was enough for the doll and even some spare money.
Surprisingly,the little boy cried,"Thank you God for giving me enough money!"Then he looked at me and added,"I asked last night before I went to sleep for God to make sure I had enough money to buy this doll,so that Mommy could give it to my sister.  He heard me!I also wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my mommy,but I didn't dare to ask God for too much.But he gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose!"
Then I remembered two days before a local newspaper reported an accident in which a woman and a little girl were badly injured.The little girl died right away,and the mother was left in a critical state.Was this the family of the little boy?
Two days after I met the little boy,I read in the newspaper that the woman had passed away.I couldn't stop myself from going to the funeral.Teary-eyed,I felt that my life had been changed forever.
