My father said, “No, no, we ___40___ accept this.” The stranger replied “You don’t have __41____.”, closed the door and left.

A few weeks ago I was having a day so 37 that I even doubted if I had the ability to do this challenging work, and was about ready to change to a less stressful job 38 . Something happened that day to change my way of 39 and I am so appreciative of this young lady. I want to let her know that the small act 40 .
On the top of my cubicle (工作隔间) I have a small collection of lighthouses (灯塔) to let people know where I am sitting 41 my team members have to find me for emergencies.
That day I came into the office and was about to get the day 42 when Crystal came over. l asked if she needed anything. She said, "I 43 you something. " I looked at her with a 44 look and said, "Well, thank you, but why 45 you buy me anything?" I had never spoke to this young lady   _46 . She said, "Every day I stand up and look across the 47 and see your lighthouses. Then I feel I am not alone and I encourage myself that there are always 48 things in life. I saw this on the way to work and thought 49 would like it. I wish it would have the same 50 as your Lighthouses do. " In her hand she had a small globe with a Lighthouse and a ship on it. I gave her a hug and 51 her. I don't think she knows how much that small act of 52   changed my day: 1 remained 53 the rest of the day.
For anyone that reads this, I hope you remember, no matter what the 54   is, you could change someone's day, 55 even his views on life.
