After 17 years of marriage, my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner and a movie. She said, “I love you, but I know this other woman loves you and would love to spend some     36   with you.”
The other woman that my wife wanted me to visit was my MOTHER, who has been     37  for 20 years, but the demands of my work and my boys made it possible to visit her only     38   .
Then I called to visit her to go out for dinner and a movie. When I arrived at her house, I noticed that she had curled her    39  and was wearing a nice dress. My mother took my arm     40   she were the First Lady.
During the dinner, we had an agreeable    41 —nothing extraordinary but catching up on recent events of each other’s life. We talked so much that we missed the movie. At last, she said,” I’ll go out with you again, but only if you let me invite you.” I    42 .
Two days later, my mother died of a massive heart attack. It happened so suddenly that I didn’t have a    43   to do anything for her.
Later, I received a copy of a restaurant receipt from the place mother and I had dined. A(n)    44   note said, “I paid this bill in advance. I wasn’t sure that I could be there; but nevertheless, I paid for two plates—one for you and the other for your wife. You will never know what that night     45   for me. I love you, son.”
At that moment, I understood the importance of saying in time “I LOVE YOU” and giving our loved ones the time that they     46   . Nothing in life is more important than your family. Give them the time they deserve, because these things cannot be     47  till “some other time”.

I really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job. I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of   36  .

I was getting extremely   44and fed up, because I had too many 45  nights and early mornings with the children.

??? I don’t remember my . But I do remember a sudden feeling inside me. I had always been delighted at how much my daughter noticed in her , whether it was birds flying or children playing. But now she was noticing and beggary.

??? A few days later, I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who picked up a food package from a nearby school on a Sunday morning and it to an elderly person. I signed us up.

When Sunday came, she was ready, but I had to myself to leave the house to fetch the food package. On my way to the school, I fought a(n) to turn back. The Sunday paper and coffee were waiting for me at home. Why do this? , we phoned the elderly person we’d been appointed. She us right over.

However, when we talked, I was moved by her struggle against the hard life and realized what our little help meant to her. When the time came to say goodbye, we three hugged. I walked home , touched.

Professionals call such a “a volunteer opportunity”.

I was tired and hungry after a long day of work. When I walked into the living room, my 12-year-old son looked __36__ at me and said, “I love you.” I didn’t know what to say. __37__ several seconds all I could do was to stand there and __38__ down at him. My first thought was that he must need __39__ with his homework or he was trying to __40__ me for some news. Finally I asked, “What was that all about?”

“Nothing.” He said, “My teacher said we should __41__ our parents that we love them and see what they say. It’s a(n) __42__.”

The next day I called his teacher to __43__ more about this “experiment” and how the other parents had __44__.

“Basically, most of the fathers had the __45__ reaction as you did.” The teacher said, “When I first __46__ we try this, I asked the children what they thought their parents would say. Some of them thought their parents would have heart trouble.” “The __47__ is,” the teacher explained, “feeling loved is an important part of __48__. It’s something all human beings __49__. What I’m trying to tell the children is that it’s too __50__ that we don’t all express those feelings. A boy should be __51__ to tell his dad that he loves him.”

The teacher, a middle-aged man, understands how __52__ it is for some of us to say the things that would be good for us to say.

When my son came to me that evening, I held on to him for __53__ second. And just __54__ he pulled away, I said in my deepest, most manly voice, “Hey, I love you, too.”

I don’t know if saying that made either of us healthier, but it did feel pretty good. Maybe next time if my child says “I love you”, it would not take me a whole day to think of the right __55__.
