My little angel, you are teaching me how selfless real love is!

My wife called, “How long will you be with that      ? Will you come here and make your darling daughter eat her food?” I threw the paper away and       to the place. My daughter, Sindu, sat there, tears welling up in her eyes. In front of her was a big bowl of rice.

  I       the bowl and persuaded: “Sindu, why not take a few mouthfuls of this rice?”

  “Ok, Dad. I will eat — not just a few mouthfuls,       the whole lot of this. But…” Sindu hesitated. “Dad, if I eat this entire rice, will you give me       I ask for?”

  “Promise.” I      .

  After eating the rice painfully, Sindu came to me, her eyes wide with      . Now I became a bit      . “Dear, you shouldn't insist on       a computer or any such       things. Dad does not have that kind of money right now.”      , “I want to have my head shaved off(剃掉), this Sunday!” was her demand(要求), which was far       my belief.

On Monday morning, I       Sindu at her school and watched her walking towards her classroom. She turned around and      . I waved back with a smile. Just then, a boy, who just got out of a car, shouted, “Sindu, please wait for me!” What       me was the hairless head of that boy.

“Sir, your daughter is       indeed!” Without introducing herself, a lady standing beside me continued, “That boy is my son, who lost all his       because of a disease. He       to come back to school fearing the unintentional(无意的)but        teasing(取笑)of the schoolmates. Sindu visited him last week, and promised him that she would take care of the teasing issue. But, I       imagined she would sacrifice her lovely hair for my son!”

A great man married a woman and they had a little lovely girl.

Burn rate is the speed at which a startup business consumes money. My rate was $ 75,000 a month. Four months after my company was set up, I had only a quarter of the starting capital left in the bank.

    Looking for guidance, I went to talk to my friend, Arthur Walworth about my new venture. “Times of great change always bring out the risk-takers,” he said. “And they leave winners and losers. My grandfather invested a lot of money in a project of Thomas Edison’s that ended up in failure. ”

    I was lost in thought at the notion (an idea or belief about something) of a Thomas Edison project ending in failure. Damn. It could happen to anybody! I must continue.

    At that time CD-ROM sales had bombed, so investors were fleeing from the field. I didn’t turn away from mine entirely, but instead linked it to the Internet.

    My plan was to offer consumers descriptions of home-design products by using a special software and let them modify the designs. Then we can enable them to get online professional and constructional help to have their houses built, decorated and furnished according to their own choice.

    To realize my plan I needed investors, so I continued to meet regularly with venture capitalists. One said I had a great idea. But I needed to test it. Get the money somewhere. To get this money from a venture capitalist is going to cost my wife and my children! He turned down my request.

    Wife? Children? I hardly remembered them.

    I was working nonstop --- struggling to turn the key in the lock, to find the right way ahead. The pressure was terrible. It was just at this time that my parents and sisters stepped up. Two hundred thousand dollars. A lot of money to them, invested in this crazy son and brother without a moment’s hesitation. Dad and Mom had driven out from Chicago and seen the passion in my little office and the trouble at home.

   With their help my company survived and has been prospering ever since.

“Hi. Can I sit down?”

I raised my head and there she was, with an irresistible smile on her round face.

“What are you looking at?” she asked.

“Ants.”

“What are they doing?”

“No  49   .”

“I bet they’re playing games and making friends. Don’t you think so?”

That was how our  50  started and it didn’t stop. We talked about everything under the sun---the ants, the clouds, my little niche(处境)---until it was sunset.

Then suddenly, she saw my  51  . She just started.

My heart  52 . What I feared most had happened and I knew for sure she would  53  me now.

She stood up, pointed at my back and said, “I know  54   your back is hunched.”

I closed my eyes like a criminal waiting to be  55 . I begged in my heart for her to  56 , but she just kept on going. “I know what you’ve got in there. Do you?”

“No,” I answer  57 .

She bent and whispered in my ears.

“Your back is hunched because you’ve got a pair of wings from the angels.”

I was  58 . I looked into her eyes and her  59  touched my heart. From that day on, I started to learn to  60  myself because I have the wings of an angel and a kind-hearted friend.
