My dad was driving downtown to shop and I was going along for the 51 .At least that was what I had told him— 52 I had an important question to ask—that had been on my 53 for a couple of weeks and this was the first time I had been able to 54 with him alone.

“Dad…”I started. And 55 .

“Yup?” he said.

“The kids say there is no Santa Claus. They say I’m 56 to believe in Santa anymore…it’s only for little kids. But I believe what you told me. Santa is 57 .He is, isn’t he, Dad?”

“The real life and spirit of this 58 elf(精灵)lives forever in your heart, my heart, Mom’s heart and in the hearts and minds of 59 people who believe in the joy that 60 to others brings. The real 61 of Santa becomes what you can give 62 what you get. Once you understand this and it becomes a 63 of you, Christmas becomes even more exciting and more magical 64 you come to realize the magic comes from you when Santa 65 in your heart. Do you understand what I am 66 to tell you?”

My heart was filled with pride and I’m sure my eyes were shining with excitement.” Of course, Dad. I want him to be in my heart, just like he’s in yours. I love you, Daddy. You’re the best Santa there ever was in the whole world.”

When it comes time in my life to 67 the reality of Santa Claus to my children, I hope that I will be as eloquent(有口才)and 68 as my dad was the day I learned that the spirit of Santa Claus doesn’t wear a red 69 .And I hope they will be as 70 as I was that day. I trust them totally and I think they will.

Some years ago I worked with people on public welfare. I believed that everybody had the ability to be 　26 and all we have to do was to make them start working.

The first thing I said to them was, "I would like to know what your 　 27 are." Everyone looked at me as if I were 28 . One woman said "I don't know what you can 　29 with dreams. The rats are eating up my kids." I said. "That's terrible. You are very much 　30 with the rats and your kids. How can we help?" " I could use a new screen door（纱门）because there are 31 in the old." I asked, "Is there anybody knowing 　32 to fix it?" A man said, "Long ago I used to do things like that but now I have a bad back, but I'll 33 ." I gave him some money to do that.

　 The next week, when the group was 34, I asked the woman, "Well, is your 35 door fixed?" "Oh, yes," she said. "Then we can start dreaming, right?" She 36 at me. I asked the man, "How do you feel?" He said, "Well, it's funny that I'm beginning to feel a lot 　37 ." These seemingly small 　38 allowed the group to see that dreams were not stupid. One woman 　39 that she wanted to be a secretary. I said, " What 　40 in your way?" She answered, "I have six kids, and no one can 　41 　them while I'm away." I asked "Who would help this woman while she gets some 　42 at school?" Another woman said "I got kids, too, but I could do that." So the woman went to school.

In 12 weeks these people were 43 public welfare. The woman who 44 the children became a licensed foster care (代别人照看孩子)person. The man became a handyman. I've not only done that 　45 , I've done it many times.
