green fast enough so that i wouldnt have to keep pretending not to see them. then, one day, as i was holding the hand of my best friend jane who was young but dying of breast cancer, she told me that she made every moment count by slowing down and by seeing everything . i held her hand for five years and then she passed away. she did teach me something. it took a while for her words to really sink in. i can be a slow learner. i started by seeing everything, and focused on their presence. one day i saw a vietnam veteran(老兵). i asked him what would make his day. a hot cup of coffee, he told me. i bought him a cup of coffee, a stack of pancakes, some eggs, and so on. after our meal together, i asked him if there was anything else that would make his life a bit easier. a new pair of socks, he said. socks, really? i actually happened to be wearing a nice pair of wool hiking socks at that very moment. i told him that i wanted to give him the pair i was wearing if he would accept it. finally

with them. taking his new pair of socks, he held the socks up to his cheeks and said they were warm and smelled as good as me, pools of tears in his eyes. such a simple luxury (奢侈品) i used to take for

were asked to invite a vip to school at 2:30 pm. the vip is a very important person in their lives. as i was waiting in the hallway, i got a chance to read what seemed to be posters by the kindergartners with the question what are you thankful for.i was amazed by the answers the little ones gave. some of them were thankful for their grandparents, and others for their friends. i scanned the posters really fast to see the one made by my five-year-old daughter. i wanted to know what my daughter was thankful for. finally i saw it. on hers, she wrote, i am thankful for my sisters, my brother, my mom and my dad. her reply to the question gave me great joy. my daughter was not taking what she has, a family that shows her love, for granted.i think life is too short to be ungrateful, and when you are not giving thanks, you are being ungrateful. do not take little things for granted. when you wake up in the morning, go into the bathroom, turn on the water and take a shower, remember that for many people in the world, that is just a dream which they may never see come true. when you enjoy a good meal, think of many people who will go to bed tonight hungry. one winter night, if you sleep on a cozy bed in a warm room, think about what the homeless men and women on the streets are going through.we all should let our hearts be filled with gratitude all the time for what we have and even for our dreams. it is often said that one of the most powerful forms of prayers is giving thanks. thank god for what you want, as if you already got it in your possession. when you give thanks for what you want, it increases your belief level, and that is important because it will be hard for you to achieve your desire .if you dont believe in it. i encourage you to write down a list of what you are thankful for and read it daily, but that should not just be limited to words as john f. kennedy once said, as we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.36. the daughters reply gave the author great joy because_. a. she showed thanks to her parents b. she thanked her teachers and friends

remind myself constantly that the biggest responsibility i have as a parent is to help them develop the skills needed to live in, to live without me. so, ill let them fail ill let them fail because as
