An old man lived in a nice house with a large garden. He took care of his   41   all the time, watering and fertilizing them.

        One day a young man went by the garden. He looked    42    the beautiful flowers, imagining how   43    he could be if he lived in   44  _ beautiful place. Then, suddenly he found the old gardener was     45   . He was very surprised about this and asked, “You can’t see these flowers. Why are you busy   46   them every day?”

        The old man smiled and said, “I can tell you four   47   . First, I was a gardener when I was young, and I really like this job. Second,   48    I can’t see these flowers, I can touch them. Third, I can   49    the sweetness of them. As to the last one, that’s   50   .”

I sat down to read under an old tree in the park. I felt my life was   36  , because my whole world was dark.

A young   37   ran up to me, out of breath（氣喘吁吁）. He stood right before me with his head down and said   38  , “Look what I found!” In his hand was a flower, and what a poor sight! The flower was dry and   39 . I gave him a small smile and then turned my eyes away so that he could take his dry flower and go off to play.

  40 , he sat next to my side and placed the flower to his   41  and said in surprise, “It smells sweet and it’s beautiful, too. That’s   42  I picked it. Here, it’s for you.” The flower before me was dead. But I knew I must   43  it, or he might never leave. So I accepted(接受) the flower, and replied, “This is just what I   44 .” Just then, for the first time I noticed that the boy could not   45 －he was blind.

Tears came down my face as I   46  him for picking the best one. “You’re welcome.” he smiled, and then ran off  to  47 . I sat there and wondered how he was able to learn about my pain.

Through the eyes of a blind child,   48  I could see the problem was not with the world; the problem was me. And for all those years I myself had been   49 . I decided to see the beauty in life, and   50  every second of my life. And then I held that dry flower up to my nose and breathed in the smell of a beautiful rose.

Dear Laura,

I just heard you tell an old story of gift giving and unselfish love in your program. You don’t know whether it is true that such unselfish love would happen in today’s world. Well, I’m here to give you   36  .

I wanted to do something very   37   for my fifteen-year-old son, who has always been the perfect child. He worked all summer to earn enough money to buy a used motorcycle. Then, he spent hours and hours on it   38   it looked almost new. I was so proud of him that I bought him the shiniest helmet(頭盔)and a riding outfit(全套裝備）.

I could   39   wait for him to open up his gift. In fact, I couldn’t sleep the night before. Upon awakening, I went to the kitchen to   40   the coffee, tea, and morning dishes. In the living room was a beautiful keyboard with a   41  :” To my wonderful mother, all my love, your son.”

I was so surprised. It had been a long-standing joke in our family that I wanted a piano so that I could   42   lessons. “Learn to play the piano, and I’ll get you one” was my husband’s   promise.

I stood there shocked(震驚的), crying a river, asking myself how my son could  43  this expensive gift.

Of course, the house awoke, and my son was very pleased with my reaction（反應）. Many kisses were exchanged, and I immediately wanted him to   44   my gift.

As he saw the helmet and outfit, the look on his face was not exactly what I was expecting. Then I   45   that he had sold the motorcycle to get me the keyboard.

Of course I was the proudest mother ever on that day, and my feet never hit the ground for a month.

So I wanted you to know, that kind of love is   46   present and lives even in the ever-changing world of me, me, me!

I thought you’d love to   47   this story.

 Yours,

Hilary
