| We thought we had it all-a beautiful house, three healthy children and one more on the way, two cars, a couple of four-wheelers for entertainment-and we loved it. Then, the market turned and my husband"s job at a construction company was gone. The company was closing down for good. We both started looking for jobs right away, but there weren"t any to be found. With each passing day we were getting increasingly worried and we continued to work together in order to pull our family through. The more we pulled together, the closer we got. I felt feelings of admiration for my husband that I hadn"t felt in years. That"s why it was so hard for me to watch him blame himself for our present situation. I continually asked him to stop, but he seemed to want to punish himself for not having a job. Finally, one afternoon I pulled him aside and said,"We have four healthy children and each other. That"s what"s important. That makes you a rich man." "But what if we lose the house? They"ll hate me-you"ll hate me," he replied. I smiled at him and put my hands on both sides of his face to make him look me in the eye. "No matter where we live I will be happy -as long as I have you." I smiled again. In all the struggling together I had found that deep love for him that I had on the day we said"I do". I could see his shoulders and neck relaxed. He held me close and we were able to talk and plan and dream together in a way that we hadn"t for quite some time. It was a turning point for us as a couple and a family. We are still struggling for our better life, but I consider us well-off because we have something that money can"t buy and no one can take away from us. | ||||||||||||||||||

| One Sunday morning in June 1959 my mother walked into my room. "Surprise!" she said, proudly holding up a yellow dress ."I made it just for you. What do you think?" I bit my tongue. How could I tell Mom it was the ugliest dress I had ever seen? "It"s perfect for church," my mother continued delightedly. "I wish someone had made a dress like this for me." Too bad you can"t wear it, I thought. But I knew Mom had spent a lot of time on the dress. No one should refuse. Unwillingly I put it on. All through church I prayed (祈祷), Lord, let me get out of here without anyone seeing me. Especially Dennis Pearce, the boy I had a crush on, one of the coolest boys at Neptune High School. Although we were in some of the same classes, Dennis had never taken any notice of me. Every time I got near him, I became tongue-tied. | At the end of the service I rushed for the door. But I had to wait on the steps while my parents chatted with their friends. Just a little while longer…Then out of the corner of my eye I saw the Pearces coming near. Before I could escape, Dennis was right beside me. I started talking, hoping if I kept it up he wouldn"t notice my ugly dress."I"m going to college in September," I said. "That"s great," Dennis replied "I got accepted to police academy (学院)." "Wow!" I said. Somehow I kept the conversation going. The next thing I knew Dennis had asked me out on a date! We courted (恋爱) through college, and eventually got married. Months after our wedding I asked Dennis if he remembered the day he had first asked me out. "Certainly I do," he said."You were always quiet in school. I didn"t think you"d be much fun. But you were so lovely when we talked on the church steps, I wanted to get to know you better." Maybe that yellow dress wasn"t what I would have chosen, but that day it was the perfect dress for me. | ||||||||||||||||||

Maybe you"ve used them to describe 2 . These comments may come from stories about us that have been 3 for years-often from 4 childhood. These stories may have no 5 in fact. But they can set low expectations for us. As a child, my mother said to me,"Marshall, you have no mechanical (操作机械的) skills, and you will never have any mechanical skills for the rest of your life." How did these expectations 6 my development? I was never 7 to work on cars or be around 8 . When I was 18, I took the US Army"s Mechanical Aptitude Test. My scores were in the bottom for the entire nation! Six years later, 9 , I was at California University, working on my doctor"s degree. One of my professors, Dr. Bob Tannbaum, asked me to write down things I did well and things I couldn"t do. On the positive side, I 10 down, "research, writing, analysis, and speaking." On the 11 side, I wrote, "I have no mechanical skills." Bob asked me how I knew I had no mechanical skills. I explained my life 12 and told him about my 13 performance on the Army test. Bob then asked," 14 is it that you can solve 15 mathematical problems, but you can"t solve simple mechanical problems?" Suddenly I realized that I didn"t 16 from some sort of genetic defect. I was just living out expectations that I had chosen to 17 . At that point, it wasn"t just my family and friends who had been 18 my belief that I was mechanically hopeless. And it wasn"t just the Army test, either. I was the one who kept telling myself,"You can"t do this!"
