In the doorway of my home, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel.In a few hours he would be flying to France to 1a different life.It was a transitional(过渡的) time in Daniel’s life.I wanted to 2him some words of significance.But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the 3time I had let such moments pass.
When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten.He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked 4the steps of the bus and disappeared inside.The bus drove away and I said nothing.A decade later, a similar 5played itself out.I drove him to college.As I started to leave, I tried to think of something to say to give him 6and confidence as he started this new stage of life.Again, words 7me.
Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those 8opportunities.How many times have I let such moments 9? I don't find a quiet moment to tell him what they have 10to me.Or what he might want to face in the years 11.Maybe I thought it was not necessary to say anything.
What does it matter in the course of a lifetime if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him? 12as I stood before Daniel, I knew that it did matter.My father and I loved each other.Yet, I always 13never hearing him put his 14into words.Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten.Why is it so 15to tell a son something from the heart?
My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly.“Daniel,” I said, “If I could have picked, I would have picked you.” That's all I could say.He hugged me.For a moment, the world 16, and there were just Daniel and me.He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldn't understand what he was saying.All I was 17of was the stubble(短须) on his chin as his face pressed 18mine.What I had said to Daniel was 19.It was nothing.And yet, it was 20.
