I had a very special teacher many years ago whose husband died suddenly of a heart attack. About a week after his 36 , she shared her insights(顿悟) with the students. When the class was nearly over, she 37 and said, “I would like to 38 with all of you a thought that has 39 to do with class, but which I feel is very 40 .
“Each of us is put here on the 41 to learn, share, love and appreciate ourselves. None of us knows when this 42 will end. At any moment it can be 43 . Perhaps this is life’s way of telling us that we must make good 44 of every day.” Her eyes beginning to 45 ,she went on saying, “So I would like you all to 46 me. From now on, on your way home, find something 47 to notice. It doesn’t have to be something you see- it could be scent(香味) of fresh bread, or it could be the 48 of the wind slightly rustling(发出沙沙声) the leaves.”
“Please look for these things, and 49 them. The little things we are put here on the earth to enjoy. They are 50 observing , for at any time they can all be taken away.”
The class was totally quiet. We all picked up our books and went out of the room 51 . That afternoon, on my way home I noticed 52 things than before. Every time I think of that teacher and remember what a(n) 53 she made on all of us, I try to 54 all of those things that sometimes we all ignore. For as we get older, it is not the things we did that we often regret, 55 the things we didn’t do.
