Angels

My friend Heather mentioned that she had never seen an Angel. Then I remembered the 17 I had with my sister Sandra earlier this week.

Finally! She found the one that expressed the 22 feeling. The words expressed the feelings she wished to share. However, a sharp pain pierced (穿透) her heart when she realized that the card was 23 “mom and dad.” She stood, 24 it close for a long time, unable to move from the 25 . Tears began to run over her cheeks.

“Is there something I can do for you?” a 26 voice asked. She 27 to face a stranger, a woman, who was looking at her with 28 and concern. “Uh.. Oh…Oh!” Sandra responded, “I can’t give this card to my children because… because my husband died and this is the 29

card.”

The stranger’s face softened with sympathy and love. She reached out and 30 my sister into her arms, giving her unspoken permission to cry in the protection of her embrace (拥抱). She 31 held my sister until her calmness 32 . “Thank you for listening to me cry on,” was what my sister said when all was better. “You are welcome, and I am so sorry for your 33 , ” the stranger answered and said goodbye to her.

During her telling of this event I was feeling 34 that I hadn’t been there. My sister needed me and a stranger had to do my 35 . “You know,” she went on, “a friend suggested that it was like meeting with an Angel.” My 36 disappeared in an instant.

One morning I wasted nearly an hour watching a tiny ant carry a huge feather. Several times, it 36 several obstacles(障碍物)in its path. And after a momentary pause it would make the necessary detour. 37 one point, the ant had to cross a crack about 10 mm wide. After some 38 thoughts, the ant laid the feather over the crack, 39 across it and picked the feather up on the other side, then continued on its way. I was 40 by the cleverness of this ant. It was only a small insect, lacking in 41 yet equipped with a brain to reason, explore, discover and overcome. 42 , this ant, like the other two-legged creatures 43 on the earth, also shares human failings.

After some time the ant 44 reached its destination—a flower bed and a small hole that was the entrance to its 45 home. It was there that the ant met its 46 . How could that large feather possibly 47 such a small hole? Of course, it couldn’t. So the ant, after all this 48 and using great brightness, overcoming problems all along the way, just gave up the 49 and went home. The ant had not thought the problem through 50 it began its journey and in the end the feather was 51 more than a burden. Isn’t our 52 like that?

We worry about our families; we worry about the 53 of money; and we worry about all kinds of things. These are all burdens—the things we pick up along life’s path, and drag them around

the obstacles and over the cracks that life will bring, only to 54 that at the destination they are 55 and we can’t take them with us.
