I hadn’t really planned on taking a trip this time of year, and yet I found myself packing rather hurriedly. I knew in 36 that this trip was going to be unpleasant.
I’m talking about my annual Guilt Trip. I got tickers to fly there on WISH – I – HAD’ airlines. I 37 my baggage all the way, which was weighted down with a thousand 38 of ‘what might have been’. No one greeted me at the ‘Regret City’ International Airport.
As I 39 into the Last Resort Hotel, I noticed to miss that great 41 occasion.
Many leading citizens went there. First, there was the ‘Should – Have - Done’ family. 42 came the ‘I – Wish’ family. Of course, the ‘Opportunities’ family, ‘Missed and Lost’, surely made an 43 . They each had a dad story to share. ‘It’s – Their - Fault’ treated us with stories about 44 things had failed in his life, and each story was applauded by ‘Don’t – Blame - Me’ and ‘I – Couldn’t – Help – It.’
To make a long 45 short, I became very depressed at the party 46 .
But as I though about all the stories of failures 47 from the past, it occurred to me that all of this trip and ‘pity party’ could have been cancelled by ME!
I truly realized that I didn’t have to be there to be 48 . One thing kept going through my mind – I can’t change yesterday, but I 49 have the power to make today a wonderful day. Knowing this, I left ‘Regret City’ immediately. Am I sorry for 50 I’ve made in the past? YES! But there is no physical way to undo them.
So, if you’re planning a trip to ‘Regret City’, please cancel all your reservations now. 51 , take a trip to a placed called ‘Starting Again’, which I like so much that I’ve made it my 52 residence. My neighbors, the ‘I – Forgive - Myselfs’ and the ‘New - Starts’ are so very helpful.
By the way, you don’t have to carry 53 heavy baggage, because the load is lifted from your shoulders 54 arrival. Surely you’ll find this great town – it’s in your own heart. Look me up if you’re ready for a (n) 55 changer in your life. I live on ‘I – CAN – DO – IT ’ Street.

After winning a big game,athletes are often asked how they feel.Usually athletes say how 36 it is to win this big game.On the contrary,the fact is that losing a big game,or in my case,all the games,can be even harder.
From the spectators’ point of view,last year’s basketball 37 for my high school team was nothing 38 of an embarrassment.And 39 0 and 20 is certainly nothing to be proud of,that season had a bigger impact on me than any other.As a team captain,I knew it probably wouldn’t be the 40 year,but did I ever think we would lose every game?Of course not.Since six of our top players had graduated,it was clear that we were a (n) 41 team who would struggle.The struggle began earlier than expected, 42 ,as our team center was suspended (禁赛) for the season,and two key members decided to 43 for some reason.At this point,dropping out probably passed through every player’s mind,but in the end,we all stuck it out, 44 to work still harder.
Then there came a time when even our 45 had given up on us.Personally,I felt like it was 46 worthwhile giving my all.I thought,if even the coach doesn’t believe in us,why should I?But just as my hope began to 47 ,a teammate called a meeting.He said,“Nobody thinks we are going to win,but,as teammates and friends,we 48 it to each other to go all out every game.”
It was that moment that 49 me how to be a leader.It hit me that I certainly didn’t 50 the role.As a leader you can never quit 51 the team who looks up to you.It is one 52 to be named captain,feel great and go through the motions,but it is quite another to be a real captain and make sure everyone realizes their full 53 all the time.
I am sure it is great to go through without losing and bringing home awards.But in all honesty,I 54 the fact that my team lost every game last year.It may not help me to become a better basketball player,but it already has made me a better leader,and 55 .

Recently, I experienced a wonderful lesson in how little things still mean a lot. My home is on the Big Island of Hawaii. About a month ago, when I 36 my car and was about to drive off, I
37 at the roadside. A piece of paper 38 my eye. I picked it up and read it 39 . Instantly, I was grateful that I had done that.
The form turned out to be a receipt from the State Motor Vehicle Division, documenting the owners’ 40 of their Vehicle’s Registration fees. Quickly, I put myself in their shoes and __41 : no one would throw this away, especially 42 it was current. I also looked over the form for contact or any personal 43 , perhaps a license tag or telephone number. But that seemed __44 . The form had been blown by the wind, so 45 would I find the owners? Had it been lying there for a few minutes or a week? So I checked the date and 46 the names of the owners , who must 47 in our town. I believed that the best and easiest step to take was to put the form in a(n) 48 addressed to the couple and mail it by post. Further, I imagined that if I had posted the receipt to a wrong 49 , how frantic(慌乱的)I’d be. But it was much __50_ to attempt to return it than to leave them angry, upset , etc. over the 51 , so I did as I thought. My hunch(预感) was right. On the weekend, a happy couple 52 my house and brought me a big gift. They said they had panicked(恐慌)and 53 the receipt madly everywhere before giving up. Without it they would have to 54 another 8,000. It felt great to know I’d helped someone avoid a major trouble by doing 55 that at first glance seemed minor.

Tears clouded my eyes as I stood in our washing room, holding Brett’s jeans and full of burn holes.
Tired and defeated, I 31 to the floor. The clothes were just one more thing Brett had 32 . He often got almost everything in the house out of 33 . Many windows in our house needed repair due to his breaking 34 to steal money when he chose to live on the street. Yet none of this could compare to the emotional 35 Brett had done to our once quiet home.
Brett came to live with us when he was 12 years old. During the next few years I had dealt with Brett a 36 as possible, but inside I was shouting. “I don’t want him in my house another day, Lord! I just can’t 37 him!” Having wiped my tears, I continued 38 him as before.
When Brett was nearly 18, he landed again in Juvenile Hall(少管所). After that, my husband and I had to send Brett to a boarding school for helping 39 teens.
At the 40 ceremony, each graduate held a white rose to give to the person who had 41 the most to him or her. Brett spoke 42 to his parents and then spoke to me, “You did so much. You were always there, no matter 43 . My mom and dad, I was their kid. But you, 44 troubled enough by me, always 45 me such love. And I want you to know I love you for it.”
46 , I stood as Brett placed the white rose in my hand and hugged me 47 .
At that moment, tears 48 in my eyes again, this time not for disappointment but for 49 . Although I had struggled with silent 50 toward my stepson, Brett had seen only my actions. Love is action. We may not always have positive feelings about certain people in our lives, but we can love them.
