After spending a weekend away with my adult son, I was so impressed by his
generous heart that I sent him this letter.
Dear son,
I want to thank you for teaching me a very 36 lesson in life by the great
example you 37 When we were eating at that cafe in Bondi and a person who
had __38__ his hamburger didn't have enough money to pay for it, without any
39 , you went over and put the 40 $2 into his hand.
When we were leaving, you 41 threw a five-cent coin onto the pavement and
Said 42_ like, "Some kid will really enjoy 43 this. "
Last week, a young man 44 me in the line at a petrol station didn't have
45 money to pay for his petrol. I asked the money collector, "How much 46
is he?" She told me he had meant to put $15 of petrol in his ear 47 he had been
looking at the wrong gauge (计量器) and had put in 15 48 , which came to just
over 49'_. That is an easy mistake 50 both gauges run fast.
Something made me think of you and 51 you did that night at the cafe in
Bondi. I handed the man $6. He was so 52 and said, "But why would you do
this for me?" I just smiled as I thought of you.
Thank you, son, for teaching me that "it's 53 to give than receive". Now
when I sec a five-cent coin on the 54 and want to pick it up, I think of you
and leave it _55 , just in case some kid will get a kick out of finding it.
Love always. Mum.

We may look at the world around us, but somehow we manage not to see it until whatever we’ve become used to suddenly disappears. 36 , for example, the neatly-dressed woman I 37 to see—or look at—on my way to work each morning.
For three years, no matter 38 the weather was like, she was always waiting at the bus stop around 8:00 am. On 39 days, she wore heavy clothes and a pair of woolen gloves. Summertime 40 out neat, belted cotton dresses and a hat pulled low over her sunglasses. 41 , she was an ordinary working woman. Of course, I 42 all this only after she was seen no more. It was then that I realized how 43 I expected to see her each morning. You might say I 44 her.
“Did she have an accident? Something 45 ?” I thought to myself about her 46 . Now that she was gone, I felt I had 47 her. I began to realize that part of our 48 life probably includes such chance meetings with familiar 49 : the milkman you see at dawn, the woman who 50 walks her dog along the street every morning, the twin brothers you see at the library. Such people are 51 markers in our lives. They add weight to our 52 of place and belonging.
Think about it. 53 , while walking to work, we mark where we are by 54 a certain building, why should we not mark where we are when we pass a familiar, though 55 , person?
