My father was 44. He knew for sure that he wasn’t going to   35  it to 45. He wrote me a letter and hoped that something in it would help me for the rest of my life.

Since the day I was 12 and first read his letter, some of his words have lived in my heart. One part always   36   out, “Right now, you are pretending to be a time-killer.   37   I know that one day, you will do something great that will   38   you among the very best. ”Knowing that my dad believed in me gave me permission（许可）to believe in myself. “You will do something great. ”He didn’t know what that would be, and neither did I, but at times in my life when I’ve felt   39   of myself, I remember his words and wish he were here, so I could ask, “Is this what you were talking about, Dad? Should I keep going? ”

A long way from 12 now, I   40   he would have been proud when I made any progress. Lately, though, I’ve come to believe he’d want me to move on to what comes next: to be proud of, and believe in, somebody else. It’s time to start writing my own   41   to my children. Our children look to us with the same   42   question we had. Our kids don’t hold back because they’re not afraid to   43  . They’re only afraid of failing us. They don’t worry about being disappointed （失望的）. Their worry-as   44   was until I got my father’s letter – is of being disappointment.

Give your children permission to succeed. They’re waiting for you to   45   them. I always knew my parents loved me. But trust me. That belief will be more complete, that love will be more real, and their belief in themselves will be greater if you write the words on their hearts, “Don’t worry; you’ll do something great. ”Not having that blessing （祝福）from their parents may be the only thing   46   them back.
