Question

Mother used to ask me what the most important part of the body is.Through the years I would ____a guess at what I thought was the correct____.When I was younger，I thought sound was very important to us as humans，____I said，“My ears，Mommy.” She said，“No，many people are ___.”

Since making my first attempt，I had considered the correct answer carefully.So several____later，I told her，“Mommy，____is very important to everybody，so it must be our___.”She looked at me and told me，“You are learning fast，but the answer is not correct because there are many people who are blind.”

Over the years，Mother asked me a couple more times and always her answer was____.Then last year，my grandpa died.Everybody was____.When it was our turn to say our final____to Grandpa，my Mom asked me，“Have you found the answer to my usual question—what is the most important body part____，my son？”

I was____when she asked me this now.I always thought this was a game between her and me.She saw the____on my face and told me，“This question is very important.It shows that you have really lived your life.For every part you gave me____，I have told you were wrong and I have given you an example____.But today is the day you need to learn this important lesson.” She looked down at me as only a mother can.I saw her eyes well up with tears.She said，“Son，the most important body part is your____.” I asked，“Is it because it holds up my head？”

She replied，“No，it is because it can hold the head of a friend or a loved one when they cry.Everybody needs a shoulder to____on sometime in life，my son.I only hope that you have enough love and friends that you will always have a shoulder to cry on when you ____ it.”

Then and there I knew the most important body part is not a selfish one—it is sympathetic to the___of others.People will forget what you said.People will forget what you did.But people will____forget how you made them feel.
