It was the end of my first day as waitress in a busy New York restaurant. My cap had gone away, and my feet 36 . The loaded plates I carried 37 to be heavier and heavier. Tired and discouraged, I didn’t able to do anything 38 . As I made out a check for a family with several children who had changed their ice-cream 39 a dozen times, I was ready to stop. Then the father 40 at me as he handed me my tip. “Well done,” he said, “you’ve 41 us really well.” Suddenly my tiredness 42 . I smiled back, and later, when the manager asked me how I'd like my first day, I said, “ 43 !” Those few words of praise had 44 everything. Praise is like 45 to the human spirit; we cannot grow without it. And 46 ,while most of us are only too 47 to apply(應(yīng)用)to others the cold wind of criticism (批評), we are 48 to give our fellows the warm sunshine of praise. Why---when one word of praise can bring such 49 ?

An artist gets complimented (admired)for a glorious picture, a cook for a 53 meal. But do you ever tell your laundry manager how pleased you are when the shirts are 54 just right? In fact, to give praise 55 the giver nothing but a moment's thought and a moment's effort..

Dear son,
The day that you see me old and I am already not in good health, have patience and try to understand me.
If I get dirty when eating, if I can not dress, have patience and remember the hours I 36 teaching it to you. If, when I speak to you, I 37 the same things thousand and one times, do not 38 me, listen to me. When you were small, I had to read to you thousand and one times the same story 39 you got to sleep. When I do not want to have a 40 , neither shame me nor scold me. Remember when I had to chase you with thousand excuses I 41 , in order that you wanted to bathe. When you see my 42 little about new technologies, give me the necessary time and do not look at me with your mocking(嘲弄) smile. I taught you 43 to do so many things: to eat good, to dress well, to confront life…. When at some moment I lose the memory or the 44 of our conversation, let me have the necessary time to remember, and if I cannot do it, do not become nervous, as the most important thing is not our conversation but surely to be with you and to have you 45 to me.
If ever I do not want to eat, do not force me. I know well 46 I need to and when not. When my 47 legs do not allow me to walk, give me your 48 , the same way I did when you gave your first 49 . And when someday I say to you that I do not want to 50 any more ---- that I want to rest forever, do not get angry. Someday you will understand.
Try to understand that my age is not lived but survived. Some day you will discover that, 51 my mistakes, I always wanted the 52 thing for you and that I tried to prepare the way for you. You must not feel sad, angry or impotent(無可奈何) for seeing me 53 you. You must be next to me, try to understand me and to help me as I did it when you 54 living. Help me to walk, help me to end my way with love and 55 . I will pay you by a smile and by the immense love I have had always for you.
I love you, Son
