Some years ago when I was in my first year in college, I heard Salome Bey sing for the first time. The moment was exciting. Salome’s   1filled the room and brought the theater to life. I was so   2that I decided to write an article about her.

I   3Salome Bey, telling her I was from Essence magazine, and that I wanted to meet her to talk about her career. She   4and told me to come to her studio next Tuesday. When I hung up, I was scared out of my mind. I   5I was lying. I was not a writer at all and hadn’t even written a grocery list.

I interviewed Salome Bey the next Tuesday. I sat there   6, taking notes and asking questions that all began with, “Can you tell me…” I soon realized that   7Salome Bey was one thing, but writing a story for a national magazine was just impossible. The   8was almost unbearable. I struggled for days   9draft after draft. Finally I put my manuscript (手稿) into a large envelope and dropped it into a mailbox.

It didn’t take long. My manuscript   10. How stupid of me! I thought. How could I   11in a world of professional writers? Knowing I couldn’t   12the rejection letter, I threw the unopened envelope into a drawer.

Five years later, I was moving to California. While   13my apartment, I came across the unopened envelope. This time I opened it and read the editor’s letter in   14:

Shocked, it took me a long time to   17. Fear of rejection cost me 七彩教育網ly. I lost at least five hundred dollars and having my article appear in a major magazine.

I ran into a stranger as he passed by. “I’m so sorry!” was my reply. Then he said, “Excuse me too… I wasn’t   1watching for you.” We were very polite, this stranger and I. Then we went   2our way after saying goodbye.

But at   3, a different story is told. How we treat our loved ones, young and old. Later in the kitchen, as I   4the meal, my daughter walked up to me, very still. When I turned, I      5knocked her down. “Get out of the way!” I shouted with a frown (皺眉). She stepped away silently, with her little heart   6. I didn’t realize how rudely I had spoken.

    That night, when I lay   7in bed, God’s quiet voice spoke to me and said, “While    8with a stranger, you are calm and polite, but with those you love, you are QUICK to excite… Go look around on the kitchen floor, you’ll find some flowers there by the   9. Those are the flowers she brought for you. She   10them herself — pink, yellow, and your favorite blue. She stood there quietly and you never saw the   11in her eyes.”

    By this time, I felt sad and small and now my own tears began to fall. I quietly went and knelt (跪) by her   12. “Wake up, my 七彩教育網,” I said. “Are these the flowers you picked up for me?” She smiled, “I found them out by the tree, I   13them in a napkin（紙巾）, just for you. I knew you’d like them, especially the   14.” I said, “I am so sorry that I missed them today… And I   15have fussed (大驚小怪) at you that way…”

    And she whispered, “Mommy, that’s OK… I still love you   16.” I hugged her and said, “I love you, too and I LOVE the flowers.”

    Do you know that: if you die tomorrow, the   17you are working for could easily replace you in a matter of days. But the family you leave   18will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into our   19than into our families--- an unwise investment (投資) indeed.
