Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are busy trying to 36 in order to pay the high school cost for my brother and me. They don’t act in the 37 ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too 38 for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Lovers’ Day is even more out of 39 .
One day, Mom was sewing a quilt (缝被子). I sat 40 beside her. “Mom, I have a question. Is there 41 between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice.
Mom stopped her work and raised her head with 42 in her eyes. She didn’t answer immediately. She 43 her head and continued to sew the quilt.
I was very worried because I thought I had 44 her. I was very regretful and I didn’t know what I should do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words:
“Susan,” she said 45 , “Look at this thread. Sometimes it 46 , but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and long-lasting. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can 47 be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there. Love is 48 .”
I listened carefully but I couldn’t 49 her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned home, they both looked 50 . It seemed both of them had had a serious illness. After they were back, every day in the morning and sunset, my mother helped my father walk 51 on the country road.
“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.
“Susan ,” he said kindly. “To tell you the truth, I just like 52 with your mom.” 53 his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.
Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and 54 . But from this experience, I understand that love is just 55 in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.

When I was fifteen months old.I fell on a glass rabbit which cut my eye badly enough to blind it.And as I grew,this sightless eye , in so many ways controlled me that I walked with my face looking at the floor so people would not see the ugly me.
Yet Mama would hold me in her arms and stroke my hair and say,“If you hold your head up high,it will be OK.And people will see your beautiful soul.”She continued this message whenever I wanted to hide.
As a little child,I thought Mama meant,“Be careful or you will fall down or bump into something because you are not looking.”As a teenager, I found that my mama’s words helped me begin to realize that by letting people look at my face,I let them recognize the intelligence and beauty behind my eyes.
In high school I was successful both academically and socially.I was even elected class president,but inside me I still felt like a freak(畸形人).When things got really bad,I would cry to my mama and she would look at me with loving eyes and say, “Hold your head up high and face the world.Let them see the beauty that is inside.”
When I met the man who became my partner for life,we looked each other straight in the eye,and he told me I was beautiful inside and out.Mama’s love and encouragement were the spark that gave me the confidence to overcome my own doubt.
“Hold your head up high” has been heard many times in my home.Each of my children has felt its invitation.The gift my mama gave me lives on in another generation.
