What mother said was absolutely right, as I after my graduation from college. I had made up my mind to try for a in radio, then my way up to sports announcer. I went to Springfield and knocked on the door of each station—and got each time. In one studio, a warm-hearted woman told me that stations couldn’t risk employing a(n) person. “ Please go out to the faraway or lonely district and find a small station which will give you a ,” she said. I came back home to St-Louis.

You mean you know something about football?” Then he stood me a microphone and told me to an imaginary game.
On the way to my home, as I have many times since, I thought of my mother’s words. From time to time I what direction my life might have taken if I had had the job at Wards Holding Corporation

When it comes to friends, people always know this old saying——A friend in need is a friend indeed. The best friend a man has in the world may him and become his enemy. His son or daughter that he has with loving care may prove ungrateful. Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our happiness and our good reputation, may our faith. A man may the money he has. It flies away from him, perhaps when he needs it most. A man’s reputation may be sacrificed in a moment of ill-considered action. The people who are ready to fall on their knees to do us when success is with us may be the first to throw the stone of hatred when settles its cloud upon our heads. The one unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world, the one that never him, the one that never proves or distrusted, is his dog.
A man’s dog stands by him in richness and in , in health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold ground, where the cold wind blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his side. He will kiss the hand that has no food to ; he will lick the wounds and sores that come from encounter with the roughness of the world. He will guard the sleep of his master he were a prince. When all other friends desert, he . When wealth and reputation fall to pieces, he is as constant in his love as the sun in its journeys through the heavens.
If fortune drives the master forth, a deserted person in the world, friendless and homeless, the faithful dog asks no higher privilege than that of him, to guard him against danger, to fight against his . And when the last of all comes, and death takes the master in its embrace, and his body is in the cold ground, no matter if all other friends their ways, there by the grave will the dog be found, his head between his paws, his eyes sad but open in alert watchfulness, faithful and true even in death.

My taxi driver slammed on his brakes，slide sideways，and at the very last moment our car stopped and narrowly the other car by just inches！The driver of the other car looked around and started at us.
My taxi driver just and waved at the guy. And I mean he was really . So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital！”This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call “The Law of the Garbage Truck”．
He that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of ，full of frustration，full of anger，and full of disappointment. As their garbage up，they need a place to dump (倒) it and sometimes they’ll dump it on . Don’t take it personally. Just smile，wave，wish them well，and move on.
Believe me. You’ll be more . Don’t take their garbage and it to other people at work，at home，or on the streets, Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with . The mark of your success is how quickly you can refocus on what’s in your life. Roy Baumeister，a psychology researcher from Florida State University，found in his extensive research that you bad things more often than good things in your life. You store the bad memories rather easily, and you them more frequently.
So...Love the people who treat you right. Ignore the ones who don’t. Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you it!
When you follow “The Law of the Garbage Truck”，you take back control of your life. You make room for the good by go of the bad. Have a Garbage Free Day！Have a marvelous，garbage-free day！The seeds you plant today the harvest you reap tomorrow.
