11．Donald had his own difficulties in sleeping that night．Not just because of the bright lights of the shelter or people's constant voices，it was the happening repeatedly nightmare that caused him to stay awake，to fear sleep．Donald was back in his small house．He did his best to ignore the howling winds outside his window．Yet he could not turn out the fearful whimpers （呜咽） of his little dog，or the uncomfortable sounds of his mother anxious in her room next door，unable to sleep through the storm despite her insistence they would be all right．
Donald did not want his mother to be upset，but on some level，he was glad to hear she was awake，It meant he was not alone in the dark．Though he was 12，until recently it was impossible for Donald to fall asleep unless his mother lay down by his side．
Suddenly there was a crash．Their living room window is shattered （打碎） by 125miles an hour winds．Troy rushed to Donald and sat anxiously on the edge of his bed．He did his best to calm his mother，and she had to comfort him．Soon water was seeping （渗入） into the single floor house．Quickly it rose from ankle level to leg level．At Donald's insistence，they pushed their way through the water---now chest high---toward the front door．When they fought their way into the living room，water rose to their chins．
It was a struggle for the boy and mother to stay afloat．In a total panic，desperate to hold on to something，Troy caught a curtain rod．She was breathing hard，shouting that she couldn't swim．

8．I was working as a swimming coach when I met Anita for the first time．Seeing I was swimming，Anita coming to me and asked me if I could help her to swim as her personal trainer was not available．I have been a swimming coach for a club and there was no reason to deny her request．
In few minutes we became good friends and I was told she suffers from back problem．Her doctor advised her to swim as it might be helpful to her．I took it easy as I have been sailing in the same boatand swimming was a good option．
With my experience，I appreciated the thought and recommended her to swim on daily basis．Without any hesitation she said，"I suffer from spinal arthritis（脊椎炎），a bigger problem than yours．"
As we discussed types of oral medications for back problem，she came closer to me and whispered，"I can make you feel better．My problem is more severe and requires a spinal injection on weekly basis rather than oral medication"．Her acceptance to her reality gave me strength to bear my pain．I was glad we met．Undoubtedly，she made me feel better．
Arthritis has made my life difficult，one problem leading to another．It has made me treasure the people in my life．The days are getting harder and Anita is an inspiration for me．Anita is working for an architectural firm，irrespective of all her medical problems．Meeting Anita helped me to understand that there are three angles to every problem-my angle，your angle and the right angle．Right angle is the reality that you do not want to accept．I accepted the right angle in my life that my problem is big but others might have a bigger problem．If they can live with courage and determination，why cannot I？
We always focus on‘my angle'and neglect the‘right angle'．Life is easier and better once we understand the‘right angle'．
