My brother and I were driving home together. We      something interesting on the way. Because of the conversation, my brother took a      turn.
Unfortunately, the turn took            towards a bridge and we had no way to turn back. My brother      the bridge toll (通行费) and drove on. He was      frustrated by the mistake and the needless waste of $4.
When we reached an exit slipway, my brother      that a young guy pulled over to the side of the road. I was busy trying to       which way we went next when my brother pulled over and asked the guy if he needed any     . And he did. He had a flat tire and needed a wrench (扳手) to get it off.
My brother      him a wrench, and then began to help him     the tire. The young man said that this had been a         week for him; earlier he had gotten into a minor car accident, and now this     flat on his way home from work. But he called us “a breath of fresh air” and kept     us because he really would have been stuck
we hadn’t come along.
After we had finished the job he thanked us      and pulled out $20 and      to give it to us. “No,” my brother said, “we were     supposed to get on that bridge, yet we took a wrong turn. But now we know      we did. It was to help you. Thank you for turning our mistake into an opportunity to     .”
My brother’s reaction in the situation is a(n)     for everyone and we felt so good the rest of the day.

A funny story circulated recently about Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, creator of the fictional detective Sherlock Holmes. Doyle clearly told of a time when he climbed into a   1    in Paris. Before he could    2     a word, the driver turned to him and asked, “Where can I     3     you, Mr. Doyle?”
Doyle was    4   . He asked the driver if he had ever seen him before.
“No, sir,” the driver responded. “I have    5    seen you before.” Then he    6    : “This morning’s paper had a story about you being on     7     in Marseilles. This is the taxi stand where people who return from Marseilles always arrive. Your    8    color tells me you have been on vacation. The    9     spot on your right index finger suggests to me that you are a writer.

“This is truly amazing!” the writer   12    with excitement. “You are very like my    13    creation, Sherlock Holmes!”
“There’s one other thing,” the driver said.
“What’s that?”
“Your    14     is on the front of your suitcase.”
Perhaps the     15    was no master detective, but he was observant! He paid attention and paying attention is an important part of living    16    .
Life isn’t a matter of milestones, but of    17   . A life lived to the full is lived from moment to moment,    18    from milestone to milestone. It is more of a series of days in which we truly pay attention, than a few    19   events along the way.

Listening to your heart
Do you ever wish you had a road map for living? If only someone could    1    show us a way to go, a direction to take, we wouldn’t feel so    2    of which path to pursue. We think that, with only a little    3    , we’ll surely end up in the right place.
4     on a regular flight from Detroit to Tri-City Airport must have felt a little more than    5     during the flight attendant’s greeting as their flight started. She     6     the passengers and stated that the destination would be Midland. A few concerned passengers   7    her, so the flight attendant, obviously not familiar with the area,     8     herself by saying that they would be     9      in “Tri-City” and Bay City.
Chuckles rippled along the aisle as she    10    tried again. This time she informed passengers that the destination would be Saginaw. Now    11    broke out.
At that point, an authoritative voice came over the intercom (对讲机) and    12     her. “I’m your pilot, folks,” he said. “Don’t    13   — I know where we’re going.”
It’s nice when someone knows the     14    . And there is wisdom in seeking help when necessary. Other people can be valuable.    15     we cannot always depend on others for the    16    answers for living our lives. In the end, nobody can point us to all the best   17    for life’s problems; nobody else can    18    us to the path that is just right for us. We find that way ourselves. We find the way by    19   . Listening to our hearts — for the direction we need is almost always there, deep within.
So if you feel a bit lost, don’t worry. This may be a    20    time to listen. And remember — your pilot knows where you’re going.
