I got a cancer when I was 18. This was a big deal for someone to 31. I chose to fight. After treatments, I 32 from my illness. Life couldn’t have been any 33. When I became fit years later, I met a wonderful man and got married. 34, I still felt something missing and eager to find my 35.

As my 20-year anniversary (周年纪念) of being a cancer 36 approached, I wanted to do something special and 37. I organized a fundraiser, calling it “A Mission (使命) of Love” and thanks to my 38 family and friends, raised﹩4,000 for St. Jude’s, planning to 39 it myself. Three quarters of the money would be given as a (n) 40 to the hospital, and what was left would go toward buying 41 for the children. I also organized a T-shirt 42 activity for any child who felt well enough.

Thanksgiving Day seemed the most 43 day of the year for the mission, and so it was all arranged. We went to a store and 44 three shopping carts with toys. It was 45 we were celebrities (名人) when the employees and other shoppers knew what we were doing.

On Thanksgiving Day, as we got to St. Jude’s, I became 46 emotional, as my eyes were filled with tears of 47. After dropping the toys off, we arrived where six children were waiting anxiously to begin painting. To me, it was as though they weren’t sick, and to see them smile was the greatest gift I could have ever 48.

Leaving there that day, I knew I had finally found my purpose. All of us are born for a reason, but all of us don’t 49 why. Success in life has nothing to do with what you 50 in life. It’s what you do for others.

I will never forget what happened to me that day. That afternoon，I was sitting at my favorite table in a restaurant, waiting for the food I had ordered to arrive. Suddenly I  16  that a man sitting at a table near the window kept glancing in my direction,  17  he knew me. The man had a newspaper  18  in front of him, which he was  19  to read, but I could  20  that he was keeping an eye on me. When the waiter brought my  21  the man was clearly puzzled (困惑) by the  22  way in which the waiter and I  23  each other. He seemed even more puzzled as  24  went on and it became  25  that all the waiters in the restaurant knew me. Finally he got up and went into the  26  . When he came out, he paid his bill and  27  without another glance in my direction.
　　  I called the owner of the restaurant and asked what the man had  28  . “Well,” he said, “that man was a detective (侦探). He  29  you here because he thought you were the man he 30 . ” “What?” I said, showing my  31  . The owner continued, “He came into the kitchen and showed me a photo of the wanted man. I  32  say he looked very much like you! Of course, since we know you, we told him that he had made a  33  ”. “Well, it’s really  34  I came to a restaurant where I’m known,” I said. “  35  , I might have been in trouble. ”

I remember as a small child people would often ask me, "What are you going to be when you grow up?"

     Well, it 31  being a cowboy or some super hero. Later it was a fireman, a policeman, a lawyer... As I grew older my dreams for the future  32 . When, at last, I was in college, I had my 33 set on becoming a preacher (牧师) like my father.  34  I studied and prepared for that life. I reached the 35 in the end and I was preaching  36 full-time for much of my adult life.

     However, for many, there is a "thief" that goes around stealing our 37 . Sometimes, the thief will come as a parent, a relative, or a friend, but the 38  thief is usually ourselves.

     We find 39 just about reaching the top, and a "small" 40  inside says, "You’ll never 41 it""You can’t possibly do this." On and on the "small" voice 42 our failure. Failure, though, is exactly how dreams are 43 . It is one of the most important tools we have, because it teaches us invaluable (极宝贵的) 44 . When we learn these lessons well, we are ready for 45  

     The message I always gave my children was that you 46  do anything that your heart desires. Remember the saying, "Nothing is 47 to a willing heart." There are 48  "overnight" successes, but with determination, they will arrive. The life you dream of 49 in the end .Then in your heart, believe it will happen to you. Then work, work, work. You’ll get the picture.

     So, be true to your dream, and don’t let anyone 50 it from you —especially yourself.
