I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known. I refused to use a white stick and 36  asking for help. After all, I was a teenage girl, and I couldn’t bear people to look at me and think I was not 37  them. I must have been a terrible danger on the roads. Coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step 38  on their brakes. Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.
One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I 39  something. “I’m awfully sorry,” I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time, I realized I had been 40  to a lamppost. This was just one of the 41  things that constantly happened to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn’t stop 42  passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.
Generally in this situation, because I hated 43   I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would 44  a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. In the end, I usually managed to 45  my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.
46 on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; it seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them 47  making a fool of myself. I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next stop.

People always say that if God closed a door in front of you, there must be a window opened for you. Yes, people always say that, but    36  is the window for me?
　　I am not disappointed, just a little worried    37   as my roommate said, “ Why are you angry with yourself once you    38   to do anything?” I have no idea. I just can’t    39   me if I can’t understand some easy things. Currently, I just feel__ 40 _with myself because I couldn’t finish the assignment on the lab, and what was    41   worse was that actually I did not understand what the    42   was! Fiona asked me why I didn’t    43   for help. The problem is that if I have to ask some silly questions, I will feel    44  .
　　Before I came here I was confident. But I have totally lost it. Sometimes I can’t__ 45  find the right words; sometimes I am too shy to    46   others. I have to admit that I am    47  .
　　The wisest people are always    48   who can take advantage of others’ wisdom. But I was so stupid as to close myself and    49   a lot of time soaking inside the workbook,    50  made me more confused. Why can’t I follow the sentence? I am   51   to get help the next time I have any questions. I can 52  I am not smart, but I shouldn’t hide it. I must    53   it as soon as possible.   54  I will have to waste much more time on it—just like tonight.

One summer in college, I was invited to be an instructor at a high school leadership camp.
I first   16   a boy under the tree on the first day of camp. His obvious   17  and shyness made him appear weak and lonely. Nearby, 200   18   campers were playing and joking, but the boy seemed to want to be anywhere   19  where he was.
I was instructed to care more about campers who might feel   20 . So I   21   him and said, “Hi, I’m Kevin. It’s nice to meet you. How are you?”
22   a shaky voice he   23   answered, “Okay, I guess.”
I calmly asked him to join in the activities and   24   some new people. He quietly replied, “No, this is not really my thing.”
I could   25   that this whole experience was   26  to him. But I somehow knew it wouldn’t be right to   27   him, either. It was going to take more time and   28 .

That evening at our nightly staff meeting, I made my   30 about him known. I asked them to pay special attention and spend time with him   31   they could.
The days flew by fast. When the “last dance” came, surprisingly, the boy from under the tree was now a shirtless dancing   32 . He owned the dance floor   33  meaningful time with others. I couldn’t’ believe it was him.
In that instant, I realized how easy it is to give a bit of   34 every day. You may never know how much each gesture may mean to someone else. I tell this story as   35   as I can, and I advise others to look out for their own “boy under the tree.”

My friend Monty Roberts told me a story about a young boy. One day at school, the boy was asked to write a paper   36  what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.
That night he wrote a seven – paper   37  his dream of owning a farm. He put a great deal of his   38  into the paper and the next day he handed it in to his   39 . Two days later he received his paper back. On the   40  page was a large red F with a   41  that read, “See me after class.” The boy went to see the teacher after class and asked, “ 42  did I receive an F?” The teacher said, “This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like   43 . Owning a farm requires a lot of money. There’s no   44  a young man could ever do it.” Then the teacher added, “ 45  you will rewrite this paper, I will reconsider your   46 .”
The boy went home and   47  about it long and hard. Finally, after a week, he turned in the   48 paper, making no changes.
Monty then said, “I tell you this story because you are sitting in my farm. I   49  have that school paper over fireplace.” He added, “The   50  part of the story is that two summers ago the same schoolteacher   51  30 kids to camp out on my farm. When the teacher was   52 , he said, ‘Look Monty, I can tell you this now. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream    53 . During those years I stole a lot of kids’ dreams.   54  you had enough courage not to   55 yours.”
Don’t let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what…
