The night of graduation, I was afraid. Two hundred people were sitting out there. I felt tense and I wanted to run away,  36  I couldn’t! After all, my own children were sitting in front of me with many other persons. I couldn’t be a coward(懦夫) before  37 .

When I ended the speech, I was  38  at the cheering. And I never forget the first time I received the cheering in my life.

Flowers arrived  39  my brothers and sister. My husband gave me silk roses. The reporters came with   40 and recorders and lots of questions. There were tears and hugs and congratulations.

Sometimes, I sit down and   41  the tape of my gaduation speech. I hear myself say to the audience, “Don’t’ give up your   42  in life. Anything can happen if you believe. It means hard work, but  43  sure that you can do it, with God’s help.”

And then, I remember mother’s   44  to me , a young girl: “Hurry, Gin, you’ll be late for school.”

Yes, Mom, I was late  45  school, but it was sweeter for waiting. I only wish you and Dad could have been there to see your daughter and granddaughter in all their show and speech.

My mother often asked me, “what is the most important part of the body?” Through the years I would guess at  46 I thought was the correct answer. When I was younger, I thought sound was very important to us as humans, so I said, “My   47 , Mommy.”  She said, “No. Many people are deaf. But you   48  thinking about it and I will ask you again soon.”

Then last year, my Grandpa   49 . Everybody was hurt. Everybody was crying. My Mom looked at me when it was our   50  to say our final goodbye to grandpa. She asked me,  “Do you know the most important body part yet, my dear?”  I was shocked   51  she asked me this now. I always thought this was a game between her and me. She saw the confusion(迷惑) on my face and told me, “This   52  is very important. It shows that you have   53  lived your life”. I saw her eyes well up with tears. She said, “My dear, the most important body part is your shoulder.” I asked,  “Is it because it holds up your head?”

She replied, “No, it is because it can hold the head of a friend or loved one when they   54. Everybody needs a shoulder to cry on sometime in life, my dear. I only hope that you have enough love and  55  that you will have a shoulder to cry on when you need it.”
