A Lesson for Living

  Mom is my life teacher.“Everything happens for the best,” my mother said   1   I faced disappointment.“If you   2   one day something good will happen.And you'll   3   that it wouldn't have happened if not for that previous disappointment.”

  Mother was   4  , as I discovered after graduating from college, I had decided to try for a job   5   radio, then work my way up to   6  .In Chicago, I knocked on the door of every station and got   7   every time.

  In one studio, a kind lady told me that big stations couldn't risk hiring an   8   person, “Go out to find a small station,” she suggested.

  I thumbed home to Dixon, Illinois.  9  , there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and   10   a local athlete to manage its sports department.Since Dixon was   11   I had played high school football, I applied.The job sounded   12   right for me.But I wasn't hired.

  My   13   must have shown.“Everything happens for the best,” Mom reminded me.I tried WOC Radio in Davenport.The program director, named Peter Mac Arthur, told me they had already hired one.

  As I left his office, my frustration boiled over.I asked aloud, “How   14   a fellow get to be a sports announcer if he can't get a job in a radio station?”

  I was leaving when I heard Mac Arthur calling,“  15   was that you said about sports? Do you know   16   about football?” Then he   17   me before a microphone and asked me to broadcast a(n)  18   game.After that, Peter told me I would be broadcasting Saturday's game!

  On my way home,   19   since, I always thought of my mother's words:“If you carry on, one day something good will happen.And you'll”…

  I often wonder what   20   my life might have taken if I'd gotten the job at Montgomery Ward.
