Love Is Just a Thread(爱只是一根线)
Sometimes I really doubt whether there is
love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in
order to pay the 36 tuition for my brother and me. They
don’t 37 in
the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. My father has a bad
temper; it’s easy for him to lose his temper.
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt.
I 38 sat down beside her and looked at her.
“Is there any 39
between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice.
My mother stopped her work and raised her
head with 40 in
her eyes. She didn’t answer immediately. Then she bowed her head and continued
to sew the quilt. 41 at last I heard my mother say the
following words:
“Susan,” she said 42 . “Look at this thread. Sometimes it
appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the
quilt strong and durable(耐用的). If life is a 43
, then love should be a thread. It can
44 be seen anywhere or
anytime, but it’s really there. Love is 45 .”
I listened carefully but I couldn’t
understand her until the next
46 . At that time, my father
suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for
a month. After they were
47 , every day in the
morning and dusk, my mother helped my father walk 48
on the country road. My father had never been so 49 . Along the country road, there were
many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees. The sun softly shone through the
leaves. All of these 50 the most beautiful picture in the world.
The doctor had said my father would
51 in two months. But after
two months he still couldn’t walk alone. We were all worried.
“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him
one day.
“Susan,” he said kindly. “To tell you the
truth, I just like 52 with your mom. I like this kind of
life.” 53 from his eyes, I knew he loved my mother
deeply.
Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts
and sweet kisses. But from this
54 , I understand that love
is just a 55 in
the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.
