I heard a shotgun blast．I must have been hit because I was down and felt it in my stomach．I was lying on the ground of a parking a lot in the dark，scared，hurt and alone，not knowing if I would live or die．It seemed so real，ever thought it was a dream．
This dream，after my father’s death，help me understand the shock and physical hurt I was going through．I bad never experienced the loss of someone I loved．It was as if a part of me had died．
I soon began to receive and experience the incredible healing(康复)power of love．It was an honest outpouring from the people who surrounded me，wrote letters and called．One expression of sympathy I will always remember came from my friend Diana who lost her mother to cancer when she was a teenager．Soon after we returned home from Dad’s funeral there was a knock at the door．There Diana stood holding the most beautiful bouquet of flower．She put her hand over her heart and said two words，“My mother．”We didn’t need to talk．I knew she was telling me about the love she lives on． She knew how I was feeling and wanted to share this time with me．
During this time，my tears would come as easily as the memories of Dad．I believe tears are like holy water．They flow from the well of our hearts, where we hold our feelings．I stayed with my sadness．I shared it with others and received great comfort because they too had sadness．
My mother said she gardened with her grief．Her yard was never more beautiful than the year my father died．I have learned that our sadness ennobles us as humans．It means we have loved deeply．It is this love that will never die．I wrote about this in a poem the summer after my Dad died．
MY FATHER | |
I think I am letting him go． It is not that my love is diminished or that I miss him less． It is only that the sun is up and there is no milk in the refrigerator and the bunny got out of the cage And is eating my red geraniums． | I think I can letting him go． But sometimes at night Before I go to sleep I fill the tears fill up my eyes and run down my cheeks． I do not think I will ever let him go． but he gone． |

查看习题详情和答案>>I have recently completed my college degree. The last project was called “Smile”. The class was asked to go out to smile at three people and document their reactions（反应）. I am a very friendly person and always smile at everyone and say hello anyway. So, I thought this would be a piece of cake.
My husband, the youngest son and I went out to McDonald. We were standing in line when all of a sudden everyone around us began to back away. As I turned around I smelled a horrible body odour（气味） and saw two poor homeless men standing behind me. As I looked at the short blue-eyed gentleman closest to me, he was “smiling”. The second man fumbled（摸索）with his hands as he stood behind his friend.
The young lady at the counter asked him what they wanted. He said, “Coffee is all, Miss, ” because that was all they could afford.
Then I really felt it—I almost embraced（拥抱）the little man with the blue eyes. That is when I noticed all eyes in the restaurant were set on me, judging my every action. I smiled and asked the lady for two more breakfast meals and gave them to the men.
The blue-eyed gentleman looked up at me, with tears in his eyes, and said, “Thank you. ”
I turned in my project. My teacher said, “Can I share this? ” I slowly nodded as she got the attention of the class. She began to read and that is when I knew that we as human beings share this need to heal people and to be healed.
In my own way I had touched the people at McDonald’s and every soul that heard the story in the classroom. But, I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn.
