When I was a child, my mom liked to make food for dinner every now and then. And I remember one night 36 when she made dinner after a long, 37 day at work.
On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage, and extremely burned toast in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if anyone 38 ! Yet all my dad did was to 39 his toast, smile at my mom, and ask me how my day was at school. I don’t remember what I 40 him that night, but I do remember 41 him smear(涂上)butter on that toast and eat 42 bite!
43 I got up from the table that evening, I remember hearing my mom 44 to my dad for burning the toast. 45 I’ll never forget what he said: “Baby, I 46 burnt toast.”
Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy 47 and I asked him if he really liked his toast burned. He wrapped me in his arms and said, “Son, your mom 48 a hard day at work today and she’s really 49 . And besides, a little burnt toast never 50 anyone!”
You know, life is full of imperfect things…and imperfect people. I’m not the best housekeeper or cook. What I’ve learned over the years is that learning to accept each other’s 51 and choosing to celebrate each other’s differences is one of the most important keys to creating a healthy and 52 relationship.
And this is my prayer for you today: you’ll learn to take the good, the bad, and the ugly parts of your life and 53 them at the feet of God, because 54 , he’s the only one who will be able to give you a relationship where burnt toast isn’t a deal-breaker(煞风景)!
We could extend(推广)this to any relationship in fact 55 understanding is the base of any relationship, be it a husband-wife or parent-child or friendship!

A few weeks ago, our dog, which we had kept for more than ten years, had to be put down. First, a tumor on her stomach got worse, and she was very 36 . Then, the pain in her back got so bad that sometimes she 37 lie down in the middle of a walk and couldn't take another 38 .
When I first found out, l was very sad and cried a lot. She was more like a sister to me than a 39 .But I was also angry at my stepfather,Steve,who told us the 40 a week after it happened. He 41 because he didn' t want to worry us, and he didn't want me to get depressed(抑郁的) and fail my exams. I just thought she was 42 at the animals' hospital.
I think you know all the 43 that went through my head: She was my dog!Why didn't he tell us earlier? I didn't even get to say goodbye.
People in my family have a 44 of keeping things from me to protect me, such as only telling me that my aunt had cancer 45 she had already improved health. All I could think was: Not again !
I 46 to my mum, and she said, “I know. I'm 47 , too.” I opened my mouth to shout. And then she added, “I'm so angry with Steve that he had to 48 through all this on his own.”Hearing my mum's words, I shut up my mouth. I had been so 49 on myself. I hadn't thought about 50 Steve was going through. That dog was his baby. He'd had her for longer than he'd had us—and he had to make the decision to 51 her life, and then kept in silence for an entire 52 . All my anger melted away, and all I felt was 53 .
It makes me realize that we focus so much on ourselves that we 54 the pain of others. At that moment, my mum's words were an incredible 55 that I'll never forget.
