Every person has some unforgettable experiences in his life .Some will remain in his heart as instructive stories to his life. I believe that we often tell ourselves the stories in order to keep our sanity(通情達(dá)理). These stories stay inside ourselves.
Many of the stories that I have kept inside myself are in the   36  of lessons that have taught me something about life. These lessons are 37 to carry with me. They require no outside   38  to store them in. No one can   39  me of them. They 40   their freshness without having to be renewed. And I can offer them to others without 41 them myself.
I remember there is a lesson which is about a little girl who was   42   from a serious disease. Her only chance of  43  was to have a blood transfusion(輸血)  44  her five-year-old brother. The doctor asked the little boy 45   he would be willing to give his 46   to his sister. He took a 47  breath and said he would do it if it would save her life.
As the transfusion took place, he lay in bed next to his sister and smiled as he watched the color 48 to her cheeks. Then his   49  disappeared. He looked up at the doctor and asked in a trembling   50  . “Will I start to  51  right away?”
Being so  52 , the lovely little boy had  53  the doctor. He thought he was going to die after he gave blood to his sister.
This was my lesson in “ 54  ”. I learned that a candle loses  55 by lighting another candle.

After 21 years of marriage, my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner.   36  woman was my mother, who has been a widow for 19 years, but my work had made   37  impossible to visit her very often. That night I called to   38  her to go out for dinner.“What’s wrong? Are you   39 ?”she asked. “I thought that it would be   40  to spend some time with you. Just the two of us,”I answered. She thought about it   41  moment, and agreed.
That Friday after work,   42  I drove to pick her up, I was a bit nervous. When I arrived at her house, I   43  that, she, too, seemed to be   44  about our date. She had curled her hair and was wearing the dress that she had worn to   45  her last wedding anniversary.
We went to a restaurant that,   46  not elegant, was very nice and cozy. When I read the menu, Mom sat there   47  at me. A nostalgic(懷舊的)smile was   48  her lips. During the dinner, we had a(an)   49  conversation—nothing special but catching up on(了解)recent events of each other’s life.
A few days   50 , my mother died of a heart attack. It happened so suddenly that I didn’t have a chance to do   51  for her. Sometime later, I received an envelope with a note   52 “You will never know what that night meant to me. I’m looking forward to the   53  dinner. I love you, Son.”
At that moment, I understood the importance of saying in time“I LOVE YOU”. Nothing in life is more important than your   54 . Give them the time they deserve, because these things cannot be   55  till“some other time”.
