When I was a child, my parents taught me the difference between good and bad behavior by showing me specific examples. My mother told me that you don’t 36 other kids because you would not like 37 if they hit you. That makes 38 . But, if my mother told me to be “nice” to someone, it was too vague for me to 39 . But if she said that being nice 40 delivering daffodils to a next door neighbor, that I could understand.
I believe that doing practical things can 41 the world a better place. When I was in my twenties I thought a lot about the meaning of life. At the time, I was getting started in my 42 of designing more humane facilities for animals at big farms and slaughterhouses(屠宰場). Many people would think that to even work at a slauterhouse would be inhumane, but they 43 that every human and animal 44 dies. In my mind, I had a(n) 45 of a way to make tht dying as 46 as possible.
Back in the 1970s, I went to fifty different feedlots and big farms in Arizona and Texas and 47 them work cattle. I cataloged the parts of each facility that 48 effectively. I took the best loading ramps, and other components and 49 them into an ideal new system. I get great 50 when a farmer tells me that my corral (畜欄) 51 helps cattle move through it quietly and 52 . When cattle stay calm, it means they are not scared. And that makes me feel I’ve 53 something important.
Some people might think if I could snap my 54 I’d choose to be “normal”. But, I wouldn’t want to give up my 55 to see in beautiful, precise pictures. I believe in them.

She played these roles while some type of part-time job. Leaving a career is just one of the sacrifices which my mother made for my family as we moved around the world with our father every three years or so. While she had to deal with only a small budget, my mother, somehow, managed to make each house to be the very home that is safe and comfortable.
This probably sounds like a depressing way to live, with two small children: “single” parenthood, short-term friendships, and the inability to a career or establish a home. But it was not for my mother. She turned this into adventure for us all! Each relocation (變換位置) was a chance to another part of the world. My mother greeted each new culture, climate and neighborhood. Each new house was a to rearrange furniture, make curtains and pictures. Every part-time job was an opportunity to learn something new and work with interesting people.
No matter how difficult the life was, she was always having a attitude. She always had strength in the face of struggle and change. My mother was so all those years during my childhood — she was my island in a sea of change. She is my heroine.

My son was badly hurt in a fire. After he 36 from a series of treatments, the doctors told him they would not do any operation for six months 37 it took long for the skin to stop shrinking (收縮). So, he had to return to college with a visible 10-inch 38 on his face.
I said to my son, “Keaton, 39 will pay any more attention to your scar 40 you do. If it does not bother you, it will not bother 41 .” He took my advice to heart and returned to school with his head 42 high — glad he was alive.
43 , everyone has scars and shortcomings. Some of you may spend much time thinking that people would like you better, 44 you looked different, or dressed differently, or could have a different and newer 45 .
But you see, like Keaton’s scar, people will only judge you by your looks, or your 46 , or your car, if you are judging yourself by these same false 47 .
One of my friends in college was very 48 . At first, when people met him, they noticed his 49 for about 10 seconds. This man felt 50 about himself and spent most of his time 51 about other people’s comfort and welfare(幸福). 52 , people ignored his looks. What people 53 was his kindness and his concern for them. He didn’t act in an ugly way so people didn’t treat him as an ugly man.
Therefore, concentrate on what you value 54 yourself, because if you can see that beautiful person, everyone you are in contact with will see the same 55 .
