We make a living with what we get, but we make a life with what we give.

--- Winston Churchill(温斯顿 丘吉尔)

　 I am willing to　 36　 this saying. I have been　 37　 at the Boston Children’s Hospital every year since I was thirteen. At the beginning, I only wanted to go　 38　 I would get praise for entertaining children at the 39　 . After giving my time for two months, my　 40　 changed completely.

As it became　 43　 for me to show up every day at 8 a.m., many kids began to　 44　 me. To my surprise, I　　 began looking forward to seeing their　　 45　 faces as well.

The kids on the floors above are usually there for a longer time.Despite their anxiety and desire to get better and go home, they always offer me a(n)　 53　 smile. I feel renewed about　 54　 a day with them because I realize that there is much more to　 55　 than money. It is much more important to love and to be loved.
