During the years when I was a teacher，I learned a lot of things．Perhaps the most important one was the life-changing 36 of encouraging words．

　 I 37 what Leo Buscaglia had done with his students in University of Southern California。In one class Leo Buscaglia and his students had made two lists of 38，one positive and one negative．Then they 39 the negative words in the trash and tried to use only the 40 words for one month．They were 41 at how much better their lives became just by using words full of 42 ．

　 I decided to try this as well by 43 something good to write on each paper my students 44 ．No matter how many mistakes a student’s paper 45，there was always a 46 sentence，beautiful thought，or a great idea that I could 47 on．I remember glancing over my desk and 48 some of the students reading those encouraging words 49. It was a joy seeing their eyes shine a little brighter，their 50 sit up a little straighter，and their learning climb a lot 51．

I recently saw one of my 52 students and we talked for a while．He has got married，and has two children now．As I was saying goodbye，he said，“You know I 53 have a few of those old papers．I look at them from time to time．I just 54 my kids have a good teacher like you．” I was amazed at the 55 those few positive words had on his life．

　 May your own life be forever full of encouraging words in your ears，from your lips and in your heart．
