When I was nine years old, I used to go to the post office with my mother, sending greeting cards to my aunt in Singapore. To me, these trips were really   16   memories. And receiving mail through a mailbox outside our gate was just as exciting. My small hands could   17   get the mail without using a key! I always couldn’t wait to see how much I was   18   . Oh, a letter! From Singapore! I would run back home and show it to my   19   . When there was a letter for me, I wouldn’t run—I would open it right there.

After my family moved back to Singapore, I    20   going to the post office. Years later, my company sent me to Shanghai, and the post office found me again.

We asked the owner if she could really send mail. She happily said yes. It seemed hard to believe,   26   we were at the highest top of the mountain.

That birthday postcard attracted me again to the post office and all its delights. I had   29  the post office all these years. Today I   30   send postcards to friends. And every time I am at the post office buying stamps, I cannot help but smile—how one postcard will make its way across the world and brighten up someone’s day.
