As a child, I was truly afraid of the dark and of getting lost; these fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments.
Maybe it was the strange way things looked and sounded in my familiar room at night that 1 me so much. There was never total 2 , but a streetlight or passing car lights made clothes hung over a chair take on the 3 of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the curtains seem to move when there was no wind. A tiny sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the daylight. My 4 would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would 5 very still so that the “enemy” would not discover me.
Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, 6 on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home — that was no problem. After school though, when all the buses were 7 up along the street, I was afraid that I’d get on the wrong one and be taken to some unfamiliar neighborhood. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn’t let the leaders out of my sight.
Perhaps one of the worst fears of all I had as a child was that of not being liked or 8 by others. Being popular was so important to me then, and the fear of not being liked was a 9 one.
One of the processes of growing up is being able to recognize and 10 our fears. Understanding the things that frightened us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life.

When I was in third grade, my family moved from a house in the countryside to a house in town. My parents sold the first house before they bought the second, so we were 11 for three months. During that time, a family friend 12 us their very small fishing cabin. The cabin had one bedroom, a small living room, a 13 kitchen, and a lounge where my brother and I slept in a bunk bed(双层床铺). It was a(n) 14 time for my parents. All of our routines were disrupting. But I loved it.
I loved the bunk bed, where I knew my brother was right above me, close enough for me to 15 and grab if need be. I loved that there were no other 16 anywhere nearby, so my brother had to play with me. I loved that as I went to sleep at night, the light from the living room and the 17 of my father watching TV were just a few feet away.
In that period of disruption, I loved the closeness that we relied upon our small cabin. In our normal lives, I wouldn’t have dared to ask my brother to play with me instead of his friends. I couldn’t have 18 to share a bedroom with him.

My wife and I usually don’t keep houseplants. Anything in pots gets either overwatered or underwatered. But after my diagnosis with a brain cancer, I loved the idea of having something green and 21 around us.
Last year, my friend Mitch gave me a lucky bamboo plant. Tending to the plant gave me a sense of 22 at a time when I sometimes felt useless because my ability to move was limited. As a physician, I was used to being the one who 23 care. Watering the plant 24 me to a core part of my old identity and taught me I could still be a caregiver.
However, after several weeks growing in perfect condition, the plant 25 began to show signs of stress. No matter what I did, the leaves kept 26 and dropping to the floor.
“I can’t even care for a simple plant!” I yelled. “If my lucky bamboo dies, I might die too!”
Identifying with the green and growing plant had offered me comfort. But when the tree was struggling, I felt increasingly uneasy and 27 .
It was several months later when I recovered from surgery that I realized I had wrongly linked my careful nurturing of the plant—something over which I had at least some control—with my own 28 —something over which I had no control.
As my 29 lessened, I began to study online tutorials to figure out how to care for the tree. I transplanted it to a larger pot, and when it was back in the sunny window, we both began to thrive (旺盛) again.
Now whenever I look at the tree in its new pot, I make a point to relax and think of the things I can 30 .

One of the best feelings is knowing that I have made a(n) 31 impact on another person’s life.
During my freshman year, I got my first real job at Dunkin’ Donuts. I quickly became aware that customers’ 32 was important, so I tried to provide the best service that I could. I still remember one customer vividly, an elderly gentleman named Frank. He came in every Sunday afternoon and ordered a medium coffee with two old-fashioned donuts. Immediately after I saw him pull into the parking lot, I 33 his order, having it ready by the time he walked in. If I had no other work to do, I sat and talked with him. We learned a lot about each other. I could not help feeling sorry for him because his wife had recently passed away.
After a year of working every weekend, I eventually decided to leave and turned in my two-week notice. The most difficult part of 34 was not telling my boss, but informing Frank. I felt like I was 35 him. When I finally brought it up, he 36 replied, “Oh, that’s too bad. I’m sure that the staff will miss you.” I began to think that our visits held no real importance to him, and that he would be just as 37 enjoying his food alone. 38 , on my last day, Frank came in with a card that simply read, “Your kindness during the time we have spent together is heartwarming. You had no 39 to speak a word to me, let alone show a real interest in our conversations. Few things have brought me more pleasure than our weekly visits. Thank you.”
A amount of 40 I received for such minor efforts is mind-blowing. Giving up my weekends for a year was a small price to pay to grasp the remarkable effects of kindness.

Those include polishing the unicorn’s horn (角) at least once a month, giving it 53 access to sunlight, moonlight and rainbows, and feeding it watermelons at least once a week.

She deals with a lot of “emotionally exhausting” issues on the job. So Joyce’s letter has 56 brightened her spirits. The first-grader also 57 her for wanting to ask permission in the first place, and doing her research to figure out how to go about that.
Joyce’s mother didn’t want to 58 her when she asked for a unicorn at first, so advised it might come down to getting approval. Joyce agreed and she 59 and an hour later she came back and said, “Will you help me 60 this?”

Dave King is in his second winter of snowplowing (铲雪) people’s driveways for free.
April Frazier is one person who has benefited from King’s kindness. She is a single mother. After one storm last year, she was busy looking after her kids and just knew she was not going to be able to get out there and 61 the snow.

One October morning, I planned to take Honey, my dog, out with me. We live in a 71 area up in the hills. Our driveway is barely wide enough for one car, with a ravine (深沟) on one side.

My son was born with breathing difficulties, so he had to stay in NICU, the hospital unit for newborns needing intensive care. There he could only be fed through a tube. I hated the tube. The lovely dreams I had of nursing my baby were entirely 81 .
On the fifth day, I 82 about the tube, saying that I wanted to feed him with a bottle. The doctors agreed to let me try. My son’s feedings would be closely recorded to see if he was able to get 83 milk intake without the tube. After eighteen hours, it was determined he could not do that and the tube was back. This meant he wasn’t getting stronger. The 84 felt so dark.
Seated outside the NICU, I started crying. Just then, a young nurse came and sat beside me. When I had 85 my sorrow a little, she handed me a tissue and asked if I wanted to talk. I asked again if we could remove the tube.
The nurse replied, “Not today. But remember, tomorrow is a new day.”
She seemed much younger than me, but her words were 86 and hope-filled, and I held on to them. I remembered her advice and repeated it to myself multiple times a day. The nurse changed my perspective away from current 87 to see the hope of tomorrow. Gradually, things started to 88 . On day eight, my son drank half of his milk without the tube. On day ten, the doctors approved taking off the tube 89 . “Tomorrow” came. It just came a few days later than expected. On day fifteen, we were released from the hospital, and my son “graduated” from the NICU.
