She turned up at the doorstep of my house in Cornwall. No way could I have sent her away. No way, not me anyway. Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before. “We’re moving house.” “No space for her any more with the baby coming.” “We never really wanted her, but what could we have done? She was a present.” People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.
I called her Goldie. If I had known what was going to happen I would have given her a more creative name. She was so unsettled during those first few days. She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. There was nothing I could do to make her happy, it seemed. Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owner’s. But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. Always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.
That’s why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. We were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. Eventually I couldn’t hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.
By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie. But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them. “We didn’t know what had happened to her,” said the woman at the door. “I took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared.” “She must have tried to come back to them and got lost,” added a boy from behind her.
I must admit I do miss Goldie, but I’ve got Nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. And I’ve learnt a good lesson: not to judge people.

举一反三
When I walked into the living-room, my 12-year-old son looked 26 at me and said “I love you”. I didn’t know what to say. 27 several seconds I stood there and 28 down at him. My first thought was that he must need 29 while doing his homework 30 he was trying to prepare me for some 31 .
“ 32 ,” he said, “My teacher said we should tell our parents that we love them and see what they say. It’s an experiment.”
The next day I 33 his teacher at my office to find out more about this “ 34 ” and how the other parents had responded (反应).
“ 35 , most of the fathers did the same as you ,: the teacher explained, “Feeling 36 is an important part of 37 . It’s something all human beings 38 . What I’m trying to tell the children is that it’s too 39 that we don’t express those feelings. A boy should be 40 to tell his dad that he loves him.”
The teacher, a middle-aged man, understands how difficult it is for 41 of us to say the things that would be good for us to say.
When my son came to me 42 , I held on to him for an extra second. And just 43 he pulled away, I said in my deepest, most manly 44 , “Hey, I love you .”
I didn’t know if saying that would make 45 of us healthier, but we did feel pretty better.

Years ago, as a young mom with two small children, I struggled to keep up with the demands of a busy life. One day, I woke up feeling so tired that I knew something had to change!
A friend gave me some Royal Jelly—an amazing substance(物质)from the beehive(蜂房). I was doubtful, but desperate…so I tried it! In time, I began to experience renewed energy and vitality(活力)like never before! Now, over two decades later, I travel all round the country, sharing my life-changing experience. I’m grateful for the energy to keep up and love to share this wonderful discovery with others.

Lori on Dec. 25, 2010 10:27 PM
