In the doorway of my home, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel. In a few hours he would be flying to France to     41    a different life. It was a transitional(过渡的)time in Daniel's life. I wanted to     42     him some words of significance. But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the     43     time I had let such moments pass.

When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten. He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked     44     the steps of the bus and disappeared inside. The bus drove away and I said nothing. A decade later, a similar     45      played itself out. I drove him to college. As I started to leave, I tried to think of something to say to give him     46     and confidence as he started this new stage of life. Again, words     47     me.

Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those     48    opportunities. How many times have I let such moments     49    ? I don't find a quiet moment to tell him what they have     50     to me. Or what he might     51     to face in the years ahead. Maybe I thought it was not necessary to say anything.

What does it matter in the course of a lifetime if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him?     52     as I stood before Daniel, I knew that it did matter. My father and I loved each other. Yet, I always     53    never hearing him put his    54     into words. Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten. Why is it so     55    to tell a son something from the heart?

My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly. “Daniel,” I said, “If I could have picked, I would have picked you.” That's all I could say. He hugged me. For a moment, the world    56    , and there were just Daniel and me. He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldn't understand what he was saying. All I was    57     of was the stubble(短须)on his chin as his face pressed    58    mine. What I had said to Daniel was    59   . It was nothing. And yet, it was   60     .
