After losing his job at 50, Lee had enough time and made a list of unfinished business. He was _36　 through boxes of reminders that called up memories of things he 37 have done but didn’t.

　　　 For the next year, Lee travelled the country to fulfill his unfinished 38 on the list. Among his ten tasks: Pay a thank-you visit to a high school teacher; 　39 out for a lonely mentally ill aunt 40 whom his whole family had lost touch over ten years ago; repay a $600 41 to a friend he hadn’t seen in decades.

“Once you start working and 42 a family, you have only so much time and energy. It’s easy to tell 43 you’ll get back to the people later.” Lee said, “At 50, I realized I had become 44 　from important people and values.”

　　　 “Every 45 was just so much richer than I could have imagined. Every meeting called up a 46 experience in the people I spent time with.” The friend who had 47 his $600 had completely forgotten that debt, which 48 had grown to 6 million. But their meeting 49 memories of a brave and energetic youth, 50 Lee afterwards to climb mountains. The high school teacher was not only pleased with his former student’s visit 51 also asked questions that were challenging and inspiring as ever. Lee’s aunt, a promising pianist who hadn’t had a visit from her family in 52 , cheered up and began playing piano again; most important, she knows 53 cares.

　　　 Now Lee needs to find a new job, but he has decided to continue 54__ unfinished business. “It’s amazing 55 _ you can achieve with just a visit, a call or an email when you make efforts to reach out!”
