  On the first day of school we were challenged to get to know a new classmate.I was looking around, when a gentle hand touched my shoulder.I found a little old lady with a warm smile.

  She said, “Hi, handsome! I'm Rose.I'm 87 years old.Can I give you a hug(拥抱)?” I laughed and heartily responded, “Of course!”

  “Why are you in college at such a young, innocent(天真的)age?” I asked.

  She jokingly replied, “I'm here to meet a rich husband, get married, have children, and then travel around.”

  “No, seriously,” I asked.I was curious why she took on this challenge at this age.

  “I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one!” She told me.We became instant friends.

  Over the year, Rose became a campus icon(偶像)and she easily made friends wherever she went.She loved to dress up and she enjoyed the attention from the other students.She was living it up

  At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet.I'll never forget what she taught us.

  “There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up.Anybody can grow older.That doesn't take any talent or ability,” she added.“But growing up requires finding the opportunity in change.The elderly usually don't have regrets for what they did, but rather for things they did not do.”

  One week after graduation that year, Rose died peacefully in her sleep.She taught us by example that it's never too late to be all you can possibly be.

The sky is as blue as my grandfather’s eyes.Above me,big white clouds race across the sky like pieces of cotton blowing in the w ind.School starts in another week,and time seems to have slowed down.

“But it won’t be the same without Grandma,” I tell him.

“That’s true,”he says,“but nothing_is_the_same_without_Grandma.Still,I don’t think that she would want us never to have another apple pie.What do you say?” I nod yes,and we walk towards home...towards an afternoon in the farmhouse kitchen,making Grandma’s famous apple pie.
