It was a cold winter. The day my husband fell to his death, it started to snow, just 31 any November day. His 32 , when I found it, was lightly covered with snow. It snowed almost every day for the next four months, while I sat on the couch and watched it 33 . One morning, I walked slowly 34 and was surprised to see a snow remover clearing my driveway and the bent back of a woman clearing my walk. I dropped to my knees and crawled back upstairs, 35 those good people would not see me. I was 36 . My first thought was, how would I ever 37 them? I didn’t have the 38 to brush my hair, 39 clear someone’s walk.
Before Jon’s death, I felt proud that I 40 asked for favors. I identified myself by my competence and 41 . So who was I if I was no longer capable? How could I 42 myself if I just sat on the couch every day and watched the snow fall?
Learning to receive the love and 43 from others wasn’t easy. Friends cooked for me and I cried. Finally, my friend Kathy said, “Mary, cooking for you isn’t a 44 for me; it makes me feel good to be able to do something for you.”
Over and over, I heard 45 words from the people who supported me during those 46 days. One wise man told me, “You aren’t doing nothing because being fully open to your 47 may be the hardest work you will ever do.”
I am not the person I 48 was, but in many ways I have changed for the 49 . I’ve been surprised to learn that there is incredible freedom coming form 50 one’s worst fear and walking away whole. I believe there is strength, for sure, in accepting a dark period of our life.

Do you remember the name of your kindergarten teacher? I do. Her name is Mrs. White.
I don’t remember much about what we learned in her 36 , but my mother once told me we used to 37 a lot. And I would 38 what I wrote and she would look at it and see there were so many 39 , but no red corrections. And always a star. Sometimes even a “Good”! That made my heart filled with 40 , but worried my mother. So one day when she met Mrs. White. She asked her why she never 41 my mistakes; why she never red-penciled in the wrong 42 of words or pointed out grammatical errors.
My mother said Mrs. White said “The children are just 43 to get excited about using words, about 44 sentences. I don’t want to dampen that 45 with red ink. Spelling and grammar can 46 . The wonder of words won’t …” And maybe she didn’t 47 it exactly like that because it was a long time ago and 48 my mother told me was just what she could remember.
Thanks to Mrs. White, I 49 up learning to use words with loving 50 . I had no qualms （顾虑）about writing what I meant 51 I couldn’t quite spell it out. A thought comes into my mind that if Mrs. White had used her red pen precisely, I 52 wouldn’t be telling you about this now. I look 53 now and think she must have been a rather 54 teacher ——to exercise such red-pen-restraint （不纠错）——to 55 the joy, wonder and excitement of expression.
