I will never forget the year I was about twelve years old. My mother
told us that we would not be _41_ Christmas gifts because there was not enough
money. I felt sad and thought, “What would I say when the other kids asked what
I’d 42 ?” Just when I started to 43
that there would not be a Christmas that year, three women 44
at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll, I
felt such a sense of 45 that I would no longer have to be
embarrassed when I returned to school. I wasn’t 46
. Somebody had thought 47 of me to bring me a gift.
Years later,
when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make
my 48 Christmas there special and memorable,
I 49 remembered the women’s visit. I decided
that I wanted to create that same feeling of 50
for as many children as I could possibly reach.
So I 51
a plan and gathered forty people from my company to help. We gathered about
125 orphans (孤儿) at the
Christmas party. For every child, we wrapped colorful packages filled with
toys, clothes, and school suppliers,
52 with a child’s name. We
wanted all of them to know they were
53 . Before I called out
their names and handed them their gifts, I 54 them that they couldn’t open their
presents 55 every child had come forward. Finally
the 56 they had been waiting for came as I
called out, “One, two, three. Open your presents!” As the children opened their
packages, their faces beamed and their bright smiles 57
up the room. The 58 in the room was obvious, and 59
wasn’t just about toys. It was a feeling –the feeling I knew 60
that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit. I wasn’t
forgotten. Somebody thought of me. I matter.
