In the doorway, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel. In a few hours he’d be flying to France to 36 a different life. I wanted to 37 him some words. But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the 38 time I had had such moments.
When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop. He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked 39 the steps of the bus and disappeared inside. The bus drove away and I said nothing. Ten years later, a similar 40 played itself out. I drove him to college. As I started to leave, I tried to think of something to give him 41 and confidence as he started his new life. Again, words 42 me.
Now before him, I thought of those 43 opportunities. How many times have I let such moments 44 , only not to tell him what he has 45 to me. Or what he might 46 to face in the years ahead.
What does it matter if a father never tells his son what he really thinks of him? 47 I knew it did matter. My father and I loved each other. Yet, I always 48 never hearing him put his 49 into words. Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten. Why is it so 50 to tell a son something from the heart?
My mouth turned dry, but finally I said, “Daniel, if I could have picked, I would have picked you.” That's all I could say. He hugged me. For a moment, the world 51 , and there were just Daniel and me. He was saying something, but I couldn't hear, for tears misted my eyes. All I was 52 of was the stubble(短须) on his chin as his face pressed 53 mine. What I had said to Daniel was short and 54 . It was nothing to others. However, it was 55 to me.

My mother often urged me to 38 the high standards she set for me.
When I was in high school, I played in a rock band with friends in my class. We were devoted and practiced constantly. We moved past the guys – in – a – garage stage and 39 to be pretty good, doing getting – paid gigs (演奏会) most weekends, which made me 40 . At that time, though part of me was 41 up in that band, another part of me was the oldest son in the Clark family, 42 of my origin and a dedicated student busy applying to colleges. Without even telling my parents, I applied to Harvard. I didn’t think I had much chance of getting in, 43 I wanted to try. So I was riding around being Mr Cool Rock Musician half of the time, and the other half I was focused on family and 44 goals. I was running on parallel 45 .
When the group won a city wide Battle of the Bands, things heated up. My band mates had stars in their eyes – we might be able to make it big. However, I began to feel 46 .

As I considered my 49 , my parents’ words were right there, helping me to see that my dreams weren’t about signing a record deal, letting my hair grow, and living in a tour bus. So I 50 out. My bandmasters were 51 . They thought I was crazy to withdraw 52 the peak of real success. But however successful that band got, I knew it wasn’t in line with my 53 , with my feeling of what I was 54 to do, with who I was – it simply wasn’t me.
In that instant and in many others throughout my life, my parent’s advice has helped me recenter and 55 . I could remember who I was – the hopes and dreams I carried.

Ernie sat quietly and 38 for a few moments. Then he said, "From my earliest __39 as a child until I left home at 18, Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, ' I love you, son.' "
Tears came to my eyes as I realized what a fool I had been to 40 Al as a failure. He had not left any material possessions behind.But he had been a kind loving father, and he left behind one of the finest, most giving men I have ever known.
