More than I realized, Dad has helped me keep my balance.
When I was growing up, I was embarrassed to be seen with my father. He was severely disabled and very 31 , and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for 32 , people would stare. I would inwardly feel uncomfortable at the unwanted 33 . If he ever noticed or was 34 , he never showed that he knew.
It was difficult to coordinate our steps — his hesitant, mine 35 － and because of that, we didn’t say much 36 we went along. But as we started out, he always said, “You set the pace. I will try to follow you.”
Our 37 walk was to or from the subway, which was 38 he got to work. He went to work despite illness and nasty weather. He almost never missed a day, and would 39 it to the office even if others could not. A matter of 40 .
He never talked about himself as an object of pity, nor did he show any envy of the more fortunate or 41 . What he looked for 42 others was a “good heart,” and if he found one, the 43 was good enough for him.
Now that I am older, I believe that his idea is a proper 44 by which to judge people, even though I 45 don’t know exactly what a “good heart” is. 46 I know the times I don’t have one myself.
He has been gone many years now, but I think of him often. I wonder if he 47 I was unwilling to be seen with him during our 48 . Now that I am older, I’m sorry that I never told him how sorry I was for my feeling 49 to be with him in public and how unworthy I felt to be his daughter. I think of him when I complain about trifles (something unimportant), when I am envious of another’s good fortune, and when I don’t possess a “good heart”.
At such times I put my hand on his arm to 50 my balance, and say, “You set the pace. I will try to follow you.”
