One Sunday afternoon, Marion sat at his desk and looked at his bills when his young son rushed in and said happily, “Happy birthday, Daddy. You’re 40 years old today, 31 I’m going to give you 40 kisses, one for 　32　 !” When the boy started making good 33 his words, the father shouted: “ Michael, don’t do it now，I can’t come up with any ways to solve my 34 . I’m too busy!”

The boy soon fell silent as tears 35　 from his big blue eyes slowly. Feeling 36 , the father said, “You can finish later. Daddy is busy with business now. ” He hugged the boy hurriedly as well.

The boy said nothing but quietly walked 37　 . That evening the father said: “Michael, Come and finish your work now!” But the boy didn’t.

38　 , a few days later after the father’s birthday, the boy had a terrible 　39 and died. His sad father wrote, “If only I could tell him how sorry I am for my thoughtless words, and how much my 　40 is hurting.”

Do remember: Love is a two-way street. We must warmly accept any loving act, or others will it take it as a “No” and it can 　41 a scar(伤痕). If we don’t receive 　42 , our life will lose 　43 true meaning. 　44　 is more important than accepting love from those 　45 are near and dear to us.
