In the doorway of my home, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel. In a few hours he would be flying to France to 41 a different life. It was a transitional（过渡的）time in Daniel's life. I wanted to 42 him some words of significance. But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the 43 time I had let such moments pass.
When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten. He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked 44 the steps of the bus and disappeared inside. The bus drove away and I said nothing. A decade later, a similar 45 played itself out. I drove him to college. As I started to leave, I tried to think of something to say to give him 46 and confidence as he started this new stage of life. Again, words 47 me.
Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those 48 opportunities. How many times have I let such moments 49 ? I don't find a quiet moment to tell him what they have 50 to me. Or what he might 51 to face in the years ahead. Maybe I thought it was not necessary to say anything.
What does it matter in the course of a lifetime if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him? 52 as I stood before Daniel, I knew that it did matter. My father and I loved each other. Yet, I always 53 never hearing him put his 54 into words. Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten. Why is it so 55 to tell a son something from the heart?
My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly. “Daniel,” I said, “If I could have picked, I would have picked you.” That's all I could say. He hugged me. For a moment, the world 56 , and there were just Daniel and me. He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldn't understand what he was saying. All I was 57 of was the stubble（短须）on his chin as his face pressed 58 mine. What I had said to Daniel was 59 . It was nothing. And yet, it was 60 .

Yesterday I was fortunate enough to find one more person in our world who is kind and caring. It was about 11:00 p.m. 21 my telephone rang. The caller ID showed the number of a Best Western Hotel. 22 , I would ignore this type of call. For some reason, 23 , I went ahead and answered.
The man on the other end asked if I knew Samual K. I 24 , as he is my 91 – year – old grandfather. Still not 25 why I was the one that had been called, the caller went on to tell me that I was the only 26 listed in the phone book. He said his name was Mason and that he was the 27 at the Best Western Hotel. The 28 was that grandpa had no money with him, and that he couldn’t 29 any phone numbers, so Mason called all over the state trying to get help.
Grandpa told me that he just wanted me to tell Mason that he is a (n) 30 guy and would pay the money once he got home. But the man in charge there was 31 because my grandfather seemed to be 32 . He had been going somewhere else when he got on the wrong bus and 33 100 miles from home.
Not wanting to turn him away and not wanting the police to 34 him to the police station, Mason, 35 any normal duty, not only took the time to 36 me, but also charged just $ 39 so that grandpa could 37 safely and comfortably overnight. (The rooms normally rent for about $ 140!) Besides, he had the staff of that hotel all 38 him until my uncle was able to drive the 100 miles to pick him up!
So, it’s just one more piece of 39 that proves that there are still good people out there; wherever you go, there is always one who 40 .
