It was the end of my first day as waitress in a busy New York restaurant. My cap had gone away, and my feet 26 . The loaded plates I carried 27 to be heavier and heavier. Tired and discouraged, I didn’t seem able to do anything 28 . As I made out a check for a family with several children who had changed their ice cream 29 a dozen times, I was ready to stop. Then the father 30 at me as he handed me my tip. “Well done,” he said, “you’ve 31 us really well.” Suddenly my tiredness 32 . I smiled back, and later, when the manager asked me how I’d like my first day, I said, “ 33 ! Those few words of praise had 34 everything. Praise is like 35 to the human spirit; we cannot flower and grow without it. And 36 , while most of us are only too 37 to apply to others the cold wind of criticism (批评), we are 38 to give our fellows the warm sunshine of praise. Why so when one word of praise can bring such 39 ?”
It’s strange how chary (吝啬的) we are about praising. Perhaps it’s 40 few of us know how to accept it. It’s 41 rewarding to give praise in 42 in which an effort generally goes unnoticed or unmentioned. An artist gets admiration for a wonderful picture, a cook for a 43 meal. But do you ever tell your laundry manager how pleased you are when the shirts are 44 just right? In fact, to give praise 45 one nothing but a moment’s thought and moment’s effort.

Just recently I had been wondering if there was much point in doing little acts of kindness. So often they get 36 , and occasionally they come back to bite you!
Then, just last week, after a long travel, I found myself 37 at a bus station. The bus was four hours late! So, I guess I wasn’t in a good 38 .
That’s when a woman asked me if I had any spare 39 to help her get a bus ticket.
“Oh, sure,” I said sarcastically (挖苦地). “How much would you like?”
As I spoke, I mentally kicked myself for my 40 and reached into my bag for some money. As I handed her five dollars, I heard low sounds from her stomach because of real 41 .
I reached back into my bag and brought out a 42 I had bought earlier. I handed it to her with a(n) 43 that I hoped would make up for my earlier tone of voice. Getting a 44 look at her now, I realized she was extremely tired, like she had had several months of 45 days!
As she took the food, a look of 46 washed over her. In return, she tried to give me a Milwaukee bus ticket! I don’t live in Milwaukee and the ticket will probably 47 be used, but I took it.
A few minutes later she came back over, apologized, and told me she was still 48 of five dollars. I took some singles out of my bag and slipped a twenty in there as well. 49 , the voice in my head told me I was being a fool.
Five minutes later she came back again and tried to 50 my twenty. When I said it was for her so she could get something else to 51 , and that I was completely serious and I wasn’t taking it 52 , she started crying and hugged me.
From now on, when I wonder if it is 53 trying to help someone, I will remember that woman. Maybe I am really making a 54 for someone. So, sure, sometimes my efforts might not be noticed, and sometimes they might come back to bite me, but they might actually 55 another human being!

The last time I saw my mother, she didn’t know who I was. Although having 36 from dementia(老年痴呆症) for many years, mother was never 37 . All our family came to the hospital to spend time with her. She didn’t 38 them either, but we wanted to be there with her.
I have just flown back from Texas. Mother 39 looked at me, or past me, and said “Yeah”. That’s 40 she responded to 41 around her. In spite of this, I held her hand and talked to her.

We had too many stories to tell. It was time for me to say 55 to mother and I told her I’d see her again. “Yeah,” she answered. But I wasn’t able to.
