My husband and I insisted that our children were old enough to clean their rooms and make their beds. But they thought   11 . My complaints, even self-justified（自有道理） 12 , were always landing on   13 ears. Very often a whole hour’s scolding would end up with their   14 into tears. I felt very frustrated. I realized I needed to   15 my method of “mothering”.
One day when they were at school, I spent some time tidying their rooms. On their desks, in plain 16 , I left the cards: “Dear Bill(the other card was   17 to Sarah), your room was messy this morning and I’m sure you like it clean. Love, the Room Fairy.” 18 arriving back, the children were   19 excited to receive the little note from the Room Fairy. The next day, their rooms were fairly tidy. Sure enough, there was another note from the Room Fairy   20
for them, thanking them for their nice “gift” of a clean room and   21 asking them to play a certain violin 22 . Each day, thank-you notes would be written differently to keep the ideas   23 ．
Sometimes the Room Fairy would propose a little   24 : “If you can finish your homework and go over your lessons before dinner, I’d like to watch a particular television program with you tonight.” Sometimes some colored markers or other little items would be left in   25 of well-done jobs the day   26 .
27 I can’t remember how long “the Room Fairy” continued leaving her love notes. When they were age appropriate, we used various versions of Post-Its （贴条）. The bathroom mirror became the   28 centre of our home. Appointments, notices about visiting relatives, lesson schedules, and changes in plans could be   29 .
We all benefited from and 30 the idea of sharing reminders and daily details of life through notes. I believe the true advantage of the Room Fairy notes survives in our frequent and enjoyable communication．

Nearly thirty years ago, I went rock climbing for the first time with a group in New Mexico. It sounded exciting and 31 ! Anyone who has ever climbed knows that you can easily 32 where there is no place to go, or so. It seems you’re stuck. But    33 is not an option. You cannot just stand there and feel 34 for yourself. You cannot go back down, so you are 35 to become solution minded.
I held on for dear life that day, on my first climb,   36 about three quarters of the way to the top. It seemed that there was no place to go, and 37 to put my hands or feet so that I could 38 upward. But after a few minutes had passed I realized that I had to do 39 . I began to look again for a(n) 40 . I then noticed a   41 sticking out, which I might be able to grab with my hands and 42 myself up to where I could have a small foothold. I called to the instructor at the top and asked him if that rock would hold my 43 if I pulled myself up. I can 44 remember his answer, “I don’t know. Why don’t you try it and see?”
In life we many times feel “stuck”. We wonder how we got into the 45 that we are presently in. It is in those times that we need to be careful about how we define(定义)it. Have we failed,   46 is it just a setback?
Setbacks, adversity(逆境), or being stuck is never an indication that you are a   47 unless you decide that those things define your life as a failure. For people looking for a(n) 48 to be a failure, there are always plenty to choose from. But if you want your life to be successful, setbacks, adversity and being stuck are   49 stepping-stones to your success. Success minded people 50 those kinds of things for what they really are. They know that for them, they are only temporary.

When I walked into the living-room, my 12-year-old son looked   21   at me and said “I love you.” I didn’t know what to say.   22 several seconds all I could do was to stand there and   23   down at him. My first thought was he must need   24   while doing his homework   25   he was trying to prepare me for some   26 .
Finally, I asked, “What was that all about?” “ 27 .” He said, “My teacher said we should tell our parents that we love them and see what they say. It’s an experiment. ”
The next day I   28   his teacher at my office to find out more about this “experiment” and how the other parents had responded .
“   29   , most of the fathers had the same reaction as you did.” The teacher said, “When I first   30   we try this, I asked the children what they thought their parents would say. Some of them thought their parents would have heart trouble. The point is,” the teacher explained, “feeling   31   is an important part of   32   . It’s something all human beings   33   . What I’m trying to tell the children is that it’s too   34   that we don’t express those feelings. A boy should be able to tell his dad that he loves him. ”
The teacher, a middle-aged man, understands how difficult it is for some of us to say the things that would be good for us to say.
When my son came to me   35 , I held on to him for an extra second. And just                36   he pulled away, I said in my deepest, most manly voice, “Hey, I love you. ”
I didn’t know if saying that would make   37   of us healthier, but we did feel pretty   38 . Maybe   39   time when one of my children says “I love you”, it would not take me a whole   40   to think of the right answer.
