12．Last year，around Labor Day，I read a"Happy Ad"in our local newspaper．There was a lady in a local nursing home，who was celebrating her 90th birthday and her family wanted everyone to know about it．It said that if you wanted to drop her a line，here was her address．So I did．I found a birthday card and dropped her a short note，wishing her a happy birthday．
A week or so later，someone knocked at my front door．I opened the door and found a middle-aged man standing on my doorstep．He introduced himself as the son of this woman to whom I had sent the card．He explained that he just wanted to drop by in person and thank me for sending such a nice card to his mom．Apparently，like many older folks，she did not receive much mail and was quite excited to receive mine．I just didn't know what to say．I told him it was my pleasure and that I hoped his mom had enjoyed her birthday．
That year，I did not send out any Christmas cards，except to this lovely old lady in the nursing home．I just told her that I was thinking about her and hoped that she had a nice holiday．I sent her a Valentine and also a couple of notes in between．I just thought she might like to have someone write to her，to get some mail．
She passed away a couple of months ago．I never met this lady，but I did keep her and her family in my thoughts．I dropped them a line of sympathy．I hope that my few little notes were enough to brighten a couple of her days here on earth．

18．Half a year before graduation from college，my son David began to seek a job．Due to the financial crisis，the competition was ever-fierce．My son targeted a company that was located in a coastal city．It was intended to employ only one person among more than twenty candidates，I said to David，"You should not harbor too much hope for fear that you would feel terribly disappointed when you fail．"He said to me，"I am not afraid of disappointment．As long as I try，there will always be hope!"
Three young men could enter the final round，which would later decide one person to be employed．Everything seemed to go quite well and David entered the final round in a week．
Unexpectedly，the interview was unbelievably simple，during which the interviewer only chatted with them for a while．The interview strategies my son prepared were not useful at all．The interviewer said the company would inform them of the result in 3days．On the morning of the third day，David received the text from the company that he was not employed．David felt disappointed．
In nightfall that day，David suddenly told me excitedly on phone that he had been employed．Greatly surprised，I asked him，"What's the whole matter？"David told me that he received another text saying that he was employed．David felt very confused about it．Later he found out the first text sent to him was also part of the test in the interview．Three men received the same text this morning and only David's reply was satisfying to the company．I asked my son，"How did all of you reply？"My son said，"One did not reply．The other said"goodbye"and I said"thank you"．"
Only then did I know that my son's"hope"came in that way．That is，when you feel disappointed，do not forget to say"Thank you"to the one who disappoints you．Actually，it is a piece of cake to say"Thank you"．Saying"Thank you"shows respect for others'work and demonstrates your grand generosity．Therefore，while under the same condition，you will get the upper hand in terms of opportunities compared with others!

13．one day，I noticed the most beautiful Cadillac pull in the lot while waiting for my husband．A pretty female driver pulled into the spot beside our car．There was a striking resemblance to Liz Taylor．Her eyes were as blue as the sea，and teeth like an even row of pearls．A few minutes 1ater，a nice looking man entered her car，leaned over and kissed her and she drove away．
Sitting there，I wanted to cry．How could some people have it all？
Then it became almost routine to see her about once a week．She seemed friendly and always waved，flashing a big smile．My envy continued to exist long after she drove away．
A couple of weeks later，sitting in our usual parking lot，I was holding a book，watching her over the top of it．Her husband came to the car，took her arm and helped her out of the car．I could see very well as she moved to get out．She unsteadily walked around to the passenger side very slowly，leaning on a walking cane．Sitting sideways．she lifted one leg with her hands and then the other．The beautiful lady had a prosthesis（假肢） on the left Ieg and a brace（支持物） on the right leg．
I couldn't watch them drive away as the tears were blinding me．Through my tears，I told my husband about the beautiful lady．He said he knew her husband and the story．The lady and her parents were in a car that got caught on the railroad tracks and was hit by a train．Both parents were killed and she was severely injured．She was only 12years old．The railroad made a large settlement with her because the crossing had no signals．He explained her car was specially built for her needs as well as the home．
I prayed for forgiveness all the way home．The lady I thought had everything I didn't．I realized how lucky I was to have my parents，the ability to walk，run or dance through life and many wonderful things money can't buy．I would not have traded places with the beautiful lady for anything．
When you meet a person who seems to be much better off than you，don't be fooled．
