Burn rate is the speed at which a startup business consumes money. My rate was $ 75,000 a month. Four months after my company was set up, I had only a quarter of the starting capital left in the bank.
Looking for guidance, I went to talk to my friend, Arthur Walworth about my new venture. “Times of great change always bring out the risk-takers,” he said. “And they leave winners and losers. My grandfather invested a lot of money in a project of Thomas Edison’s that ended up in failure. ”
I was lost in thought at the notion (an idea or belief about something) of a Thomas Edison project ending in failure. Damn. It could happen to anybody! I must continue.
At that time CD-ROM sales had bombed, so investors were fleeing from the field. I didn’t turn away from mine entirely, but instead linked it to the Internet.
My plan was to offer consumers descriptions of home-design products by using a special software and let them modify the designs. Then we can enable them to get online professional and constructional help to have their houses built, decorated and furnished according to their own choice.
To realize my plan I needed investors, so I continued to meet regularly with venture capitalists. One said I had a great idea. But I needed to test it. Get the money somewhere. To get this money from a venture capitalist is going to cost my wife and my children! He turned down my request.
Wife? Children? I hardly remembered them.
I was working nonstop --- struggling to turn the key in the lock, to find the right way ahead. The pressure was terrible. It was just at this time that my parents and sisters stepped up. Two hundred thousand dollars. A lot of money to them, invested in this crazy son and brother without a moment’s hesitation. Dad and Mom had driven out from Chicago and seen the passion in my little office and the trouble at home.
With their help my company survived and has been prospering ever since.

Wings of Angel

I hated going to school and I hated people 43 at me. I hated seeing others smiling broadly and standing 44 and tall. And most of all, I hated looking in the 45 and seeing my ugly hunchback.(驼背)
My friends found me 46 because I didn’t let others get close to me. I thought I was going to go on like this for the rest of my life 47 Angela appeared.
That afternoon, I was sitting by myself in a corner of the school--- a spot where no one would 48 me. That’s when I first heard her voice.
“Hi. Can I sit down?”
I raised my head and there she was, with an irresistible smile on her round face.
“What are you looking at?” she asked.
“Ants.”
“What are they doing?”
“No 49 .”
“I bet they’re playing games and making friends. Don’t you think so?”
That was how our 50 started and it didn’t stop. We talked about everything under the sun---the ants, the clouds, my little niche(处境)---until it was sunset.
Then suddenly, she saw my 51 . She just started.
My heart 52 . What I feared most had happened and I knew for sure she would 53 me now.
She stood up, pointed at my back and said, “I know 54 your back is hunched.”
I closed my eyes like a criminal waiting to be 55 . I begged in my heart for her to 56 , but she just kept on going. “I know what you’ve got in there. Do you?”
“No,” I answer 57 .
She bent and whispered in my ears.
“Your back is hunched because you’ve got a pair of wings from the angels.”
I was 58 . I looked into her eyes and her 59 touched my heart. From that day on, I started to learn to 60 myself because I have the wings of an angel and a kind-hearted friend.
