Dear son,
The day that you see me old and I am already not in good health, have patience and try to understand me.
If I get dirty when eating, if I can not dress, have patience and remember the hours I 26 teaching it to you. If, when I speak to you, I 27 the same things thousand and one times, do not 28 me, listen to me. When you were small, I had to read to you thousand and one times the same story 29 you got to sleep. When I do not want to have a 30 , neither shame me nor scold me. Remember when I had to chase you with thousand excuses I 31 , in order that you wanted to bathe. When you see my 32 little about new technologies, give me the necessary time and do not look at me with your mocking(嘲弄) smile. I taught you 33 to do so many things: to eat good, to dress well, to confront life…. When at some moment I lose the memory or the 34 of our conversation, let me have the necessary time to remember, and if I cannot do it, do not become nervous, as the most important thing is not our conversation but surely to be with you and to have you 35 to me.
If ever I do not want to eat, do not force me. I know well 36 I need to and when not. When my 37 legs do not allow me to walk, give me your 38 , the same way I did when you gave your first 39 . And when someday I say to you that I do not want to 40 any more ---- that I want to rest forever, do not get ___41__. Someday you will understand.
Try to understand that my age is not lived but survived. Some day you will discover that, despite my mistakes, I always wanted the 42 thing for you and that I tried to prepare the way for you. You must not feel sad, angry or impotent(无可奈何) for seeing me 43 you. You must be next to me, try to understand me and to help me as I did it when you 44 living. Help me to walk, help me to end my way with love and 45 . I will pay you by a smile and by the immense love I have had always for you.
I love you, Son

Stop wasting your time on the wrong mountain
I have two friends who are backpackers. There is a portion of New York’s Adirondack Mountains called the High Peaks region. It is made up of 46 mountains with a___1____ of over 4,000 feet.
The Adirondack Mountain Club gives special honor and a patch to    2    who climbs all 46 mountains. My two friends decided to go for this   3   . It took them several years to accomplish it.
My friends had climbed 10 of the mountains. The left one was the farthest,    4    much effort. A hiking trail led past the base of the mountain,    5    from that point they were on their own.
Early one morning they left their     6    and walked 5 miles on the hiking trail to the base of a    7    of mountains. One of the mountains in this chain was the last one they 8 for their patch.
When they reached the base of the mountain chain they    9    that they had left their compass and map back in the camp.    10    returning to the camp, they decided to go on without them.
For hours they    11    uphill suffering heat and black flies. Finally, late in the afternoon they   12    themselves on the top of a mountain. They were tired but   13   .
The excitement was short-lived however. When they   14    the valley, they saw another higher mountain. They had climbed the    15    hill! It was too late that weekend to correct their    16  . They had to wait another 4 months to climb the right mountain.
This story    17    that often in life we make effort toward a    18    but without the right map and personal compass it is easy to get    19   .
Knowing your life purpose gives you a    20     personal map and compass. And that makes sure you are always climbing the right mountain.

An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money left.

“And what do you want?” asked the chemist.
“It’s   5 my little brother,” the girl answered back. “He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a   6   . His name is Andrew and he has something 7 growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him.”
“We don’t   8   miracles here, child．I’m sorry,” the chemist said, smiling   9 at the little girl.
In the shop was a   10 customer. He stooped (弯腰) down and asked the little girl, “What kind of miracle does your brother   11   ?”
“I don’t know,” she replied．“He’s really sick and mommy says he needs   12   . But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought my 13   .”
“How much do you have?” asked the man.
“One dollar and eleven cents,   14 I can try and get some more,” she answered quietly.
“Well, what a coincidence（巧合）,” smiled the man. “A dollar and eleven cents — the   15 price of a miracle for little brothers. 16 me to where you live. I want to see your brother and   17 your parents.”
That well dressed man was Dr Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon（外科医生）. The operation was completed without   18 and it wasn’t long before Andrew was   19 again and doing well.
The little girl was happy. She knew exactly how much the miracle cost ... one dollar and eleven cents ... plus the   20 of a little child.
