　　He looked like a pirate．

　　With his handkerchief tied in a knot behind his little nine-year-old head, he looked like a pirate, a sad pirate．The first time little David came to our camp, he was hairless and worn out from medical treatments．He was also very angry．

　　Paul Newman's camp counselors(指导老师)were hoping to fill David's days with fun and laughter．But David stayed inside himself, wanting to be alone, or in a corner of the cabin．At this camp for children with life-threatening illnesses, we had seen some pretty tough children worn out by cancer recover full of energy despite their illness．But we saw little progress in David no matter what we tried with him．Five days into the eight-day session saw a quiet, sad little pirate．

　　Then something happened on that fifth night．Something at camp that we would call "huge"．

　　It was cabin night．That's the time when campers and counselors spend lime together in each individual cabin instead of an all-camp activity．Campers love cabin nights because there's always a bedtime snack．On the cabin table that night were bags of potato chips．

　　David slowly walked over to the table, leaving his comer to join the rest of us．He took one of the bags of the potato chips and started smashing(弄碎)it with his little fists, as all the other campers looked on in disbelief, I wondered what the cabin counselor would do．

　　The college-age volunteer counselor positioned a bag of chips on die table in front of himself, and he, too, started smashing it with his fist．The campers went crazy as everyone ran to the table to get in on the fun of smashing potato chips with their fists．

　　Somehow everyone knew, everyone sensed, that anger within him was now being released．

　　For the last couple days of the session, David was a different kid．He was a little nine-year-old boy again, trying to fill the hours of each remaining day at camp with as much fun as could be possible．

　　Several days after the session, David came back again．This time, there wasn't anything he wouldn't try to fit in to his day．He sure was having a great time at camp．David asked me if I needed an altar(祭坛)boy when I celebrated Mass in the woods．Sure enough, he was my altar boy．I remembered how carefully he listened to me when I talked about death．1 said it's only a doorway．You walk through the door and there's the Lord God and behind God a whole line of people waiting to hug you．

　　After Mass, he said to me, "Hey Fatha, a door, huh? "

　　A couple more days of fun passed and tonight was the talent show．The tradition is that campers and counselors dress up in costumes, and everyone gets a standing applause for singing and dancing or simply just acting like fools on stage．

　　The show had begun：lights, camera, action．

　　Unfortunately, the only action taking place in our row of seats was little David making his way from counselor to counselor to say an early good-bye to camp．He had become quite ill and had to go to the hospital because of this new crisis．

　　When this little nine-year-old pirate stood in front of me, he gave me a hug and a big wet kiss on my cheek．1 was crying．He was crying．A whole row of counselors was in tears．After the hug and kiss, he put his hands on my shoulders, and tears still in his eyes, said："See you on the other side of the door, Fatha．"

Each of us fails from time to time. If we are wise, we accept these failures as a 36 part of

the learning process. But all too often as parents and teachers we disallow this 37 right to our

children.

When I see a child 38 to this kind of pressure, I think of Donnie.

Donnie was my youngest third grader. His 39 of failure kept him from classroom games

that other children enjoyed. He 40 answered questions—he might be wrong.

I tried my best to build his 41 .But nothing changed until midterm , when Mary Anne , a student teacher , was assigned（安排） to our classroom .

She was young and pretty , and she loved children . My pupils , Donnie included , all 42 her.

One morning , we were working on math problems at the chalkboard . Donnie had 43 the problems with pains-taking tidiness . Pleased with his progress , I 44 the children with Mary Anne and went for art materials . When I returned , Donnie was in 45 . He’d missed the third problem .

My student teacher looked at me in despair . Suddenly her face 46 . From the desk we shared , she got a container filled with pencils .

“Look , Donnie,” she said, kneeling beside him and gently 47 the tear-stained face from his arms . “I’ve got something to 48 you.” She removed the pencils , one at a time , and placed them on his desk .

“See these 49 , Donnie,” she continued . “They belong to Mrs . Lindstrom and me . See how the erasers are 50 ? That’s because we make mistakes too . But we erase the mistakes and try again . That’s what you 51 learn to do , too.”

She kissed him and stood up . “Here”, she said , I’ll leave one of these pencils on 52 desk so you’ll remember that everybody makes mistakes, 53 teachers.” Donnie looked up with love in his eyes and a smile .

The pencil became Donnie’s 54 possession . That, together with Mary Anne’s frequent encouragement, gradually 55 him that it’s all right to make mistakes—as long as you erase them and try again .
