Question

It was pouring outside. We all stood there  21 , some patiently, others annoyed   22  nature messed （弄糟）their hurried day. I got lost in the sound and sight of the heavens   23  away the dirt and dust of the world.  

“Mom, let’s run through the rain,” a girl’s voice    24    me .

“No, honey. We’ll wait until it   25 down a bit,” Mom replied.

The young girl waited about another minute and   26 : “Mom, let’s run through the

rain .”

“We’ll get wet if we do,” Mom said.

“No , we won’t , Mom. That’s not what you said this morning,” the young girl said 

as she  27     her  Mom’s arm .

“This morning?  28  did I say we could run through the rain and not get wet?”

“Don’t you remember? When you were talking to Daddy about his cancer, you said ,” If God can get us through this , he can get us through  29  .”

The entire crowd turned   30  . Mom paused and thought for a moment about   31 

she would say. Now some would laugh it off and scold her for being  32 . But then we heard, 

“Honey, you are   33. Let’s run through the rain. If we get wet, maybe we just need washing,”

 Mom said. Then   34 they ran.

We all stood   35 , smiling and laughing as they ran past the cars. Yes, they got wet. But they were  36  by a few who screamed and laughed like children all the  37  to their cars. Circumstances （境况）or people can take away your material possessions, and they can even take away your  38 . But no one can ever take away your precious  39 . So, don’t forget to make time and take the  40  to make memories every day! I hope you still take the time to run through the rain.
