16.When my dad was a very young man,he was one of the few people in the small community of North Apollo who owned a car.W hen he and Mom got married,they went on their honeymoon in that old Ford,but they had to turn around and pay a visit to the garage because the car didn't have enough power to drive them going forward.When I was too young to remember,my dad owned a truck by which we all went nutting and berry picking.It was an important day when Daddy decided to buy a family car.It must have been about 1937or 1938when he purchased a 1929Chevrolet sedan.We loved that old car.
On Saturday evenings,after dinner,the whole family would pile into that old square sedan,go up to Whitlinger's grocery store and buy a bag of Hershey's Kisses.Then Daddy would head out toward the country and drive all around the old country roads while we fed ourselves on chocolates.That was the highlight of our week.I didn't know which we enjoyed most,the chocolates or riding in the car.
The first car I owned was a Packard touring car.My cousin Janet and 1were living in Washington D.C.,and mostly rode the streetcars(有轨电车) to wherever we wanted to go.Janet's friend Kathy had learned to drive so the three of us decided to buy a car for ourselves.We picked out this old Packard because it was all we could afford.
Every American living today can tell stories about the cars they have driven.I love to drive.I am most excited when I'm headed to the garage with my car keys in my hand.The car I own now is a 1998Buick Century with a mark where I backed into a tree.

Fears,even the most basic ones,can totally destroy our ambitions.Fear can destroy fortunes.Fear can destroy relationships.Fear,if left uncontrolled,can destroy our lives.Fear is one of the many enemies hidden inside us.
Let me tell you about five of the other enemies we face from within.The first enemy that you've got to destroy before it destroys you is indifference.What a tragic disease this is!"Ho-hum,let it slide.I'll just drift(漂流) along."Here's one problem with drifting:you can't drift your way to the top of the mountain.
The second enemy we face is indecision.Indecision is the thief of opportunity and enterprise.It will steal your chances for a better future.Take a sword to this enemy.
The third enemy inside is doubt.Sure,there's room for healthy skepticism(怀疑).You can't believe everything.But you also can't let doubt take over.Many people doubt the past,doubt the future,doubt each other,doubt the government,doubt the possibilities and doubt the opportunities.Worst of all,they doubt themselves.I'm telling you,doubt will destroy your life and your chances of success.It will empty both your bank account and your heart.Doubt is an enemy.Go after it.Get rid of it.
The fourth enemy within is worry.We've all got to worry some.Just don't let it defeat you.Instead,let it alarm you.Worry can be useful.If you step off the sidewalk in New York City and a taxi is coming,you've got to worry.But you can't let worry loose like a mad dog that drives you into a small corner.Here's what you've got to do with your worries:drive them into a small corner.Whatever is out to get you,you've got to get it.Whatever is pushing on you,you've got to push back.
The fifth enemy inside is overcaution.It is the timid (胆怯的) approach to life.Timidity is not a virtue; it's an illness.If you let it go,it'll defeat you.Timid people don't get promoted.They don't advance and grow.You've got to avoid overcaution.
Do battle with the enemies.Do battle with your fears.Build your courage to fight what's holding you back,what's keeping you from your goals and dreams.Be courageous in your life and in your pursuit of the things you want and the person you want to become.
