I ran into(偶然撞到) a stranger as he passed by. “I’m so sorry ！”was my reply. Then he said, “Excuse me too. I wasn’t even __36__ you.” we were very polite, this stranger and I.
__37at home, we treat our loved ones differently. While I was cooking, my daughter came up to me quietly. When I turned, I nearly knocked（撞） her __38__. “Get out of the way！”I barked（咆哮）. She ran away with her little heart broken. I didn’t realize how __39_I’d spoken.
That night，as I lay awake in bed，God’s quiet voice spoke to me, “While __40__ with a stranger，you’re calm and polite, but with those you love, it’s easy for you to __41__. Go and look around on the kitchen floor. You’ll find some flowers there by the door. Those are the flowers she brought for you. She picked them herself. She stood there __42_， and you never saw the tears in her eyes.”
By this time，I felt sad and my own tears had begun to __43__. I quietly went and knelt by her bed, “wake up, my dear，” I said，“ are these the flowers you picked for me？” I asked. She __44_，“ I found them out by the tree. I knew you’d like them.”I said, “I’m so sorry that I missed them today. And I shouldn’t have shouted at you that way.”She whispered，“ Mommy, that’s okay...I still love you __45__.”I hugged （拥抱）her.
Are you aware that: if you die tomorrow, the company that you are working for could easily replace you in a matter of days. But the family will feel the __46__ for the rest of their lives. We pour(倾注) ourselves more into our work  47   into our families—an unbalanced investment （投资）indeed.
