    “Why do we shout in anger?” a saint (圣人) asked his disciples (门徒). “Why do people shout at each other when they are upset?”
    His disciples thought for a while, and one of them said, “Because we    16   our calm, we shout for that.”
    “But, why do you shout when the other person is    17   next to you?” asked the saint. “Isn’t it possible to speak to him or her with a soft    18  ? Why do you shout at a person when you’re angry?”
    Disciples gave some other answers but none    19   the saint. Finally he explained, “When two people are angry at each other, their    20   distance a lot. To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the    21   they will have to shout to hear each other through that great distance.”
    Then the saint asked, “What    22   when two people fall in love? They don’t shout at each other but talk softly, why? Because their hearts are very close and the distance between them is very    23   .”
    The saint continued, “When they love each other even more, what happens? They do not speak loudly, only whisper and they get    24   closer to each other in their love. Finally they even need not whisper, they only    25   each other and that’s all. That is how close two people are when they love each other.”
    The saint said finally, “When you argue, do not let your hearts get    26  , and do not say words that distance each other more, or there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not   27   the path to return!”

    Joy in the journey
    If you have ever been discouraged because of failure, please read on. For often, achieving what you set out to do is not the important thing. Let me explain.
    Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to      . “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “We plan to dig a hole all the way through the     !” one of the brothers volunteered      .
    The older boys began to     , telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was      . After a long silence, one of the        picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and many other kinds of insects. He      the lid and showed the wonderful      to the scoffing（嘲笑的）visitors. Then he said quietly and     , “Even if we don’t dig all the way through the earth, look at what we have found      the way!”
    Their goal was far too ambitious, but it did cause them to dig. And that is      a goal is for — to cause us to move in the      we have chosen, in other words, to keep us     ! But not every goal will be fully     . Not every job will end     . Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. Not every dream will be     . But when you fall      of your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things      my life because I tried to do something!” It is in the digging      life is lived. And I believe it is the joy in the journey, in the end, that truly      .

    In the doorway of my home, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel. In a few hours he would be flying to France to   36  a different life. It was a transitional（过渡的）time in Daniel's life. I wanted to    37  him some words of significance. But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the    38  time I had let such moments pass.
    When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten. He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked   39  the steps of the bus and disappeared inside. The bus drove away and I said nothing. A decade later, a similar   40 played itself out. I drove him to college. As I started to leave, I tried to think of something to say to give him    41 and confidence as he started this new stage of life. Again, words 42  me.
    Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those 43  opportunities. How many times have I let such moments   44 ? I don't find a quiet moment to tell him what they have  45  to me. Or what he might   46  to face in the years ahead. Maybe I thought it was not necessary to say anything.
    What does it matter in the course of a lifetime if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him?    47  as I stood before Daniel, I knew that it did matter. My father and I loved each other. Yet, I always   48  never hearing him put his   49   into words. Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten. Why is it so   50  to tell a son something from the heart?
    My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly. “Daniel,” I said, “If I could have picked, I would have picked you.” That's all I could say. He hugged me. For a moment, the world    51 , and there were just Daniel and me. He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldn't understand what he was saying. All I was    52  of was the stubble（短须）on his chin as his face pressed   53  mine. What I had said to Daniel was   54 . It was nothing. And yet, it was  55 .
