Something happened that day to change my way of   39   and I am so appreciative of this young lady. I want to let her know that the small act   40   .

On the top of my cubicle (工作隔间) I have a small collection of lighthouses (灯塔) to let people know where I am sitting   41   my team members have to find me for emergencies.

That day I came into the office and was about to get the day   42   when Crystal came over. I asked if she needed anything. And she said, “I   43   you something.” I looked at her with a   44   look and said, “Well, thank you, but why   45   you buy me anything?” I had never spoke to this young lady   46  . She said, “Every day I stand up and look across the     47   and see your lighthouses. Then I feel I am not alone and I encourage myself that there are always   48   things in life. I saw this on the way to work and thought   49   would like it. I wish it would have the same   50   as your lighthouses do.” In her hand she had a small globe with a lighthouse and a ship on it.
