We may look at the world around us, but somehow we manage not to see it until whatever we've become used to suddenly disappears. 　41 , for example, the neatly-dressed woman I 　42 　to see -- or look at -- on my way to work each morning.

　 For three years, no matter 　43 　the weather was like, she was always waiting at the bus stop around 8:00 a.m. On 　44 　days, she wore heavy clothes and a pair of woolen gloves. Summertime 　45 　out neat, belted cotton dresses and a hat pulled low over her sunglasses. 　46 , she was an ordinary working woman. Of course, I 　47 　all this only after she was seen no more. It was then that I realized how 　48　 I expected to see her each morning. You might say I 　49 　her.

“Did she have an accident? Something 　50 ?” I thought to myself about her 　51 .　 Now that she was gone, I felt I had 　52 　her. I began to realize that part of our 　53 　life probably includes such chance meetings with familiar 　54 : the milkman you see at dawn, the woman who 　55 　walks her dog along the street every morning, the twin brothers you see at the library. Such people are 　56 　markers in our lives. They add weight to our 　57 of place and belonging.

Think about it. 　58 　while walking to work, we mark where we are by 　59 　a certain building, why should we not mark where we are when we pass a familiar, though 　60 　person?
