　　About 20 years ago, I was lucky to teach a disabled young woman named Audrey．Not only was she good at math and science, but she was also very 　　1　　 in art．She could draw and paint beautifully．When Audrey graduated from university, she got two 　　2　　, one in fine arts and one in chemistry．Not too many people do well in two such 　　3　　 areas of study．

　　Just before her high school graduation, Audrey 　　4　　 me a wonderful gift．It was a watercolour painting of a mother and her baby．A tear 　　5　　 from the mother's eye as she looked 　　6　　 at her child．Under the painting, Audrey had 　　7　　 these words：“The deep love from Mother, 　　8　　 me, touches another．” What a beautiful gift! I had the piece of art framed and 　　9　　 in my office．

　　Years passed with many 　　10　　 from one office to another and I 　　11　　 the painting．Last year, after about eight years of not knowing where it was, I 　　12　　 a phone call from a former colleague who said she had 　　13　　 of mine．It was the picture Audrey had painted for me 18 years earlier．When cleaning out a storage room, she had 　　14　　 my gift．

　　I was struck that the 　　15　　 gift came back．I knew Audrey very well．When she was four years old, Audrey had a serious 　　16　　．What's worse, her father left the house．It was her mother who brought her up with much trouble．She 　　17　　 it but was disabled．

　　To 　　18　　, it is just a painting, but to me it shows how a mother's love has helped 　　19　　 a talent and how its 　　20　　 pushes me ahead．

　　The other day, I took it upon myself to write a letter to the editor of Star regarding the need for black history in Canadian schools．I thought that I was suggesting something 　　1　　 and constructive．Silly me!

　　The very same day the letter was printed, I 　　2　　 a call from a man who was 　　3　　 that it was his duty as a(n)　　4　　 man to tell me that my idea was extremely bad．

　　Wait!That's not 　　5　　．He also had to tell me that black 　　6　　 should not be taught in Canadian schools because“blacks have done nothing for this 　　7　　 except commit crimes．”

　　Being black in Canada and being black as a 　　8　　 in Grenada are just like night and day．Before I came here, I was just a human being．Now I am an“African 　　9　　”．It seemed that I was put in my place when I stepped out of the 　　10　　．

　　Lately I have been seeing the 　　11　　 of black men who have committed horrible crimes．I also 　　12　　 and read astonishing comments that blacks have a serious 　　13　　．The proof, they say, is that more blacks than whites are in 　　14　　．So we are told blacks have a problem．Yes, we do．What you say might be right．But not the one you think．

　　If you believe blacks should be 　　15　　 for the actions of black criminals, then you must also hold the view that white ones are 　　16　　 of their actions．

　　In fact, when a black criminal commits a crime, we are all 　　17　　, but I am not answerable for the crimes of blacks．All blacks are not 　　18　　．The only thing we have in 　　19　　 is our brown skin．And I, 　　20　　, refuse to be put anywhere I don't wish to be．

　　There are many great doctors and perhaps it is enough to say that Dr Charles Mayo was one．　　1　　 it is not enough for me．Charles Mayo was not a 　　2　　 of mine in the sense that he would 　　3　　 by for dinner or remember my daughter's graduation．We were not that 　　4　　,for he lived in Minnesota and I lived in California．He was a friend in the sense that he 　　5　　 more like a friend than a doctor,when he was being a doctor．

　　I got very close to him just once．More 　　6　　,he got very close to me．I was flying my own plane to Washington and felt a serious 　　7　　 in my back．It turned around,　　8　　 for a clinic nearby and got in 　　9　　 with Dr Jan,my doctor and good friend．Jan at once said I had appendicitis（阑尾炎）and I told him he was the 　　10　　 doctor I had ever met．“I have no fever and any other symptoms（症状）of it．How can I 　　11　　 have appendicitis?”

　　“If you want to 　　12　　 better as quickly as possible,we'll have Charles Mayo look at you．It took Charles Mayo about thirty seconds to 　　13　　 to Jans request．

　　Charles was washing his hands when I was 　　14　　 into the operating room．I said,my 　　15　　 shaking,You have done this before,haven't you?“Of course,Danny,”he said．“twice．”

　　He had many interests and 　　16　　 them with great humor．But while he was crazy about a lot of things,he was the craziest of all about being a doctor．And he faced death often enough to know that while it is final in one sense,it is not 　　17　　 final at all．He enjoyed 　　18　　 too much not to know that it has a meaning beyond here and now．

　　　　19　　 he died on July 29,1968,at the age of seventy,following an accident,he lived on in the 　　20　　 of his books．I am glad he wrote them,because they give me and his other friends the feeling that we still have him— which we do．
