“Excuse me，” I said.“I heard what you said to the shop owner.It sounds like you're going through a really __8__ time right now.I'm so sorry.I'd like to give you something.”
I __9__ her the small card from my wallet.
When the woman read the two __10__ on the card，she began to cry.Through her tears，she said，“You have no idea how much this __11__ to me.”
To tell the truth，her reply was a little __12__．Having never done anything like this before，I didn't know what could happen.All I could say was，“Would it be OK to give you a hug？”
After that，I walked into my car and began to __13__，too.
The words on the card
“You Matter.”
A few weeks earlier，a friend gave me a similar __14__ as encouragement for my work.When I read it，I really felt __15__．So I ordered my own box of You Matter cards and started sharing them.

When I was a boy，I didn't have a smart phone.Home computers were unheard of.And our television could only get one channel in clearly.__1__，I was never bored.When spring arrived I pulled out my bike and rode.I would ride for hours，feel the __2__ on my face and laugh with joy as I rode down the hills.When summer came I __3__ in the local pool or the river down the hill every day.I never got sunburned because I was never out of the water long enough.When it was autumn，my friends and I played football for hours every day.And when the __4__ fell down from the trees，we swept them into huge golden and red piles(堆)to __5__ in.The cold of winter didn't __6__ the fun，either.My brothers and I would have snowball fights or hike into the woods to __7__ our Christmas tree.Later I sat in my
favorite chair by the warm stove and read books that could carry my __8__ away to different lands and endless adventures.
Those simple pleasures always brought me so much fun，so much laughter，and so much happiness. There was __9__ to be bored about because there was __10__ something to do，something to enjoy，and something to love.I feel a bit __11__ for the children today because they are spending so much time watching and so little time __12__．
One thing I am sure of is that even in this technological world，the simple pleasures of life can still calm your soul.A hug still __13__ your heart.A walk in the woods still calms your spirit.Petting a dog，playing a game，holding a hand，and saying “__14__” still make you feel happy.Just enjoy the __15__ pleasures of life.
