I felt sad and thought，“What would I say when the other kids asked what I'd ？” Just when I started to that there would not be a Christmas that year，three women at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll. I felt such a sense of that I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school. I wasn't .Somebody had thought of me to bring me a gift. Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my . Christmas there special and memorable, I _ remembered the woman’s visit. I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of for as many children as I could possibly.
So I a plan and gathered forty people from my company to help. We gathered about 125 orphans (孤儿)at the Christmas party. For every child，we wrapped colorful packages filled with toys，clothes，and school supplies， with a child's name. We wanted all of them to know they were .Before I called out their names and handed them their gifts，I them that they couldn't open their presents every child had come forward. Finally the they had been waiting for came as I called out，“One，two，three. Open your presents！” As the children opened their packages，their faces beamed and their bright smiles up the room. The in the room was obvious，and wasn't just about toys. It was a feeling —the feeling I knew that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit. I wasn't forgotten. Somebody thought of me. I matter.

I hadn’t really planned on taking a trip this time of year, and yet I found myself packing rather hurriedly. I knew in 36 that this trip was going to be unpleasant.
I’m talking about my annual Guilt Trip. I got tickers to fly there on WISH – I – HAD’ airlines. I 37 my baggage all the way, which was weighted down with a thousand 38 of ‘what might have been’. No one greeted me at the ‘Regret City’ International Airport.
As I 39 into the Last Resort Hotel, I noticed to miss that great 41 occasion.
Many leading citizens went there. First, there was the ‘Should – Have - Done’ family. 42 came the ‘I – Wish’ family. Of course, the ‘Opportunities’ family, ‘Missed and Lost’, surely made an 43 . They each had a dad story to share. ‘It’s – Their - Fault’ treated us with stories about 44 things had failed in his life, and each story was applauded by ‘Don’t – Blame - Me’ and ‘I – Couldn’t – Help – It.’
To make a long 45 short, I became very depressed at the party 46 .
But as I though about all the stories of failures 47 from the past, it occurred to me that all of this trip and ‘pity party’ could have been cancelled by ME!
I truly realized that I didn’t have to be there to be 48 . One thing kept going through my mind – I can’t change yesterday, but I 49 have the power to make today a wonderful day. Knowing this, I left ‘Regret City’ immediately. Am I sorry for 50 I’ve made in the past? YES! But there is no physical way to undo them.
So, if you’re planning a trip to ‘Regret City’, please cancel all your reservations now. 51 , take a trip to a placed called ‘Starting Again’, which I like so much that I’ve made it my 52 residence. My neighbors, the ‘I – Forgive - Myselfs’ and the ‘New - Starts’ are so very helpful.
By the way, you don’t have to carry 53 heavy baggage, because the load is lifted from your shoulders 54 arrival. Surely you’ll find this great town – it’s in your own heart. Look me up if you’re ready for a (n) 55 changer in your life. I live on ‘I – CAN – DO – IT ’ Street.
