    Valentine's Day is a very old holiday. It goes back to the times of Ancient Rome (古罗马). One of the characters we often see on Valentine's Day is Cupid. He was the son of Venus, the goddess of love. He shoots people with arrows (箭) of love. When a man and a woman are hit by his arrows, they will fall in love.

Today people celebrate Valentine's Day on February 14. If a man and a woman are in love, they will give each other gifts. The most popular gifts are flowers (especially roses) and chocolates. Couples may also go to a restaurant for a very nice dinner or plan something else romantic.

    In the United States, Valentine's Day is not just for lovers. Children make special Valentine's cards for their classmates. Families and friends may give candy or other small gifts to each other. It can be a fun day.

I used to have little passion (激情) in my life. But what happened the other day changed my 1 It was then that I learned how important it is to have a 2 in life. 

That day I went home in Mom's car. When Mom stopped at a red light, someone on the side of the road 3 my eye. It was a man dressed in rags (破旧衣服). He was homeless. That didn't 4 me, because I had seen many like him before. Those people usually looked unhappy and hopeless. 

But this man was 5 in some way. He was not sitting down with a sad 6 . 7 , he had a radio in his hand and was dancing 8 to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious (珍贵的) thing he had. "Mom, why does that man have a 9 ? He's homeless?" I asked. 

"He bought it," she replied. 

"But why doesn't he 10 the money to buy food or clothes? He owned something that he didn't 11 . "

"Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren't the most important."

That man must care so much about music 12 he bought a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon 13 that happiness is the key to life. 

Since then I am always thinking of what is truly important in life, A home, a meal, clothes—these things are 14 part of the life. What we often 15 is that we all need a joy, a light in a dark day. We all need a passion which gives a person the happiness they need to keep going.
