All throughout life we deal with some types of disappointment, whether they are from our job, family or friends．Disappointment is 1 ．It is not a matter of “if” it comes, it is “ 2 ” it comes．
Several days before my 15th birthday, my dad 3 me that they had bought me a car and it would be 4 on the morning of my birthday．You can imagine the 5 I felt．
That morning, I stood outside waiting for my car to arrive．I 6 a red sports car and could feel the wind blowing through my hair as I took the car from 4th to 5th gear(挡)．
Several minuets later, I noticed a tow truck(拖车)coming down the street．I couldn't 7 it! It wasn't a red sports car like I had pictured． 8 , on the back of this tow truck sat a(an) 9 , multicolored, 1972 Ford truck．There were no words to 10 the ugliness of this truck．
My dad walked out of the 11 and gave directions where it was to be 12 ．Clearly my dad saw the 13 in my face and told me that we had one year to work on the truck and get it in 14 shape．
Throughout the next year I would 15 my truck every weekend with my dad．After much hard 16 , the moment had finally arrived．My dad and I managed to get it running again and off．I went for my first 17 in my “new” truck．
I have learned through the 18 that there is something to learn from our disappointment．The truck gave me an opportunity to actually know my dad．It is through disappointment that we are 19 ．In every disappointment there is a 20 to be learned．However, it is up to you to look for the lesson．
