My favourite rock band graced the town. I headed to the concert with the desire to 46 my youth. At that time, I wasn’t exactly depressed, but in middle age, I had come to believe that all the big moments in my life were 47 me.

As the concert went on, I began thinking that I should also explore in new, untried 51 . If they could hug change, why couldn’t I
The following day, I eagerly downloaded their new album. I found the song ‘Welcome to Wherever You Are’ 52 inspiring, since it seemed to speak directly to my situation. The words encouraged my belief in the power of untapped potential. As I listened, I resolved to 53 my own horizons and push myself towards new goals.
Within four months, I had proudly published my first short story. Another success soon 54 , and then a poem I 55 about summer giving way to fall won a national award. 56 by that success, I wrote a children’s book, found a publisher, and the book remains in 57 even now.
This 58 journey all began at that Jon’s concert, where what I thought was a destination turned out to be a(n) 59 . Taking the 60 path has led me to incredible, new places, and there is still much undiscovered territory awaiting me.

The following day, I eagerly downloaded their new album. I found the song ‘Welcome to Wherever You Are’ 52 inspiring, since it seemed to speak directly to my situation. The words encouraged my belief in the power of untapped potential. As I listened, I resolved to 53 my own horizons and push myself towards new goals.
Within four months, I had proudly published my first short story. Another success soon 54 , and then
a poem I 55 about summer giving way to fall won a national award. 56 by that success, I wrote a children’s book, found a publisher, and the book remains in 57 even now.
This 58 journey all began at that Jon’s concert, where what I thought was a destination turned out to be a(n) 59 . Taking the 60 path has led me to incredible, new places, and there is still much undiscovered territory awaiting me.

When Darrell Worthy was growing up, Thanksgiving meant 30 neighbors sharing a potluck meal in the family driveway. “My parents worked at a golf course. They’d 61 all the workers to come to Thanksgiving dinner. They would never turn anybody away,” he says. “If there was a kid in the 62 who needed dinner, he got it.”
Today, Worthy carries on the 63 at his restaurant, where a combination of barbecue and community 64 has made it a hot spot. Locals 65 the restaurant for its burgers and meatloaf. For many, it is also a stop on the road to 66 . It has a program that brings former 67 into the kitchen for the first
time to help them 68 service industry skills. The effort was 69 by manager Casey DeGuise, who arrived there with drug problems. “He had been rejected for 35 jobs,” Worthy says. “We said ‘Let’s take a chance,’ and he’s never 70 .”
Worthy himself knows that a little help can go a long way. “I had a time when I was definitely drinking too much,” he 71 . Now, he offers to others the 72 he once needed. He keeps a cooler by the front door of his restaurant with 73 food for anyone who wants it. But his favorite pastime is still watching 74 plates turn to dirty dishes.
“If we can pay the bills and staff, we’re happy,” says Worthy. “If we can 75 the community, we’re happier.”

Bryanna was the 95 in this incident. It was so 96 to her that she couldn’t even figure out what was happening. She was 97 and covered in ice and soda.
The customer next in line who witnessed what happened was Feroza Eyed. She 98 the incident via Facebook after things took place. “I’ve never seen anyone 99 that way, especially to do that to a pregnant worker, which was just 100 .”
When Feroza approached the drive-through, she 101 the fast food worker a cash tip to comfort her. She had yet another 102 — set up an online registry for Bryanna’s baby.

“This ceremony would have been 130 without my princess,” Aashish wrote on social media. “Asher 131 spread through the silent ceremony hall, my heart melted along with all the others present. 132 the graduation award, I felt ‘Being father to my daughter’ is the biggest 133 to me.”

Twenty years ago, I was months into my first job at a start-up independent publishing company in New York.One afternoon, I 136 a train with a load of hot-off-the-press catalogues (目录薄) our first to list every one of our titles. I was on my way to 137 my aunt, who’d agreed to 138 them to her friends.
Back then, I was much less 139 ; somehow I made it on the train but I hadn’t had time to buy a 140 . I figured I’d buy one on board. When the conductor came to stand next to me, I opened my 141 and found nothing inside. They didn’t 142 credit cards back then. I was told to get off at the next station. 143 ,the man next to me handed $15 to the conductor. I was beyond grateful and 144 ; I promised him I would send him a check, which he 145 . I made him write down his address, though.
Later, I wrote a check, 146 it in a letter, and sent it off. I expressed my 147 again and included my email address. Soon he emailed me and we 148 a lasting friendship.
That 149 action has stayed with me .Thinking about that day, I 150 myself to be much kinder to strangers and to focus on the good in people.
