One lesson stands out in my 23  . It was shortly before Christmas. I was in eighth grade and was working evenings, straightening the toy section. A little boy, five or six years old, came in.

“That’ll just 37  it,” Dad said as he 38  the sale. Dad’s reply still 39  in my ears. When the little boy walked out of the store, I didn’t notice the dirty, worn coat or the single torn shoelace. What I saw was a happy child with a 40  .
