My life plan is to visit all the states in the US. Several years ago， my husband and I were traveling in the northwest. One day， when we were having our breakfast， I lost my wallet that had over $300 in it. There was no way for us to be able to find it， but we went on with our trip.

    We went off to drive around and enjoy the city， completely forgetting my missing wallet. Later on， when I checked my phone， there was a message from the boss of the restaurant where we had our breakfast：

    “I have something that belongs to you， and you're going to be very happy.”

    We got back to the restaurant and there was the wallet on the table with all the money in it!

    The boss's son found the wallet in front of the door， and brought it to him. He thought that it must belong to someone who had a meal in the restaurant， so he checked inside and found my phone number on a piece of paper.

    The wife asked the husband, “In this life, what did you miss?”

    When she was 25, the husband replied, “I missed a chance of finding a new job.”

    When she was 35, the husband angrily told her that he had just missed the bus.

    At 45, the husband sadly said, “I missed the chance of seeing my closed relative before his last breath.”

    At 55, the husband said disappointingly, “I missed a good chance to retire.”

    At 65, the husband hurried replied, “I missed the dentist's appointment.”

    At 75, the wife didn't ask the husband any more, the husband was kneeling in front of the very sick wife. Remembering the question the wife used to ask him, this time he asked the wife the same question. The wife, with a smile and peaceful look, replied, “①In this life, I didn't miss having you!”

    The husband was full of tears. He always thought that they could be together forever. He was always busy with work. So much that he had never been thoughtful to his wife. The husband hugged his wife tightly and said, “Over 50 years, how I had allowed myself to miss your deep love for me.”

    In the busy city life, there are many people who are always busy with work. These people revolve(旋转) their lives around their jobs. They are unwilling to spend time on health care. They missed the chance to be with their children in their growing up. They neglect(忽略) the loved ones who care for them, and also their health.

    ②Nobody knows what is going to happen one year from now.

    Life is not permanent(永恒的), so always live in the now. Express your gratitude to your loved ones in words. Show your care with actions. Treat every day as the last day of life. In this way, when you are gone, your loved ones would have nothing to feel sorry about.

Whose woods these are I think I know.

His house is in the village, though;

He will not see me stopping here

To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer

To stop without a farmhouse near

Between the woods and frozen lake

The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake

To ask if there is some mistake.

The only other sound's the sweep

Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,

But I have promises to keep,

And miles to go before I sleep,

And miles to go before I sleep.

    A few days ago I got a call from my old college friend whom I haven't seen for a very long time. We talked about all the good old times that we had. Then he started talking about his father. His father was badly ill in hospital and couldn't sleep at night, he often talked to himself and made a lot of noise. My friend was angry about this and shouted at his father to stop talking, but after his father stopped talking, he died a few days later.

    My friend was very sorry for speaking the ill words towards his father, he was so sad that he cried like a baby on the other end of the telephone. He said that from that moment on, he prayed every day, asking God to let his father forgive him.

    Sometimes, we complain our parents, but do we realize that our parents take care of us and always stay around us from the day we were born to our adulthood (成年), imagine how sad our parents will be when they hear an unlucky word of "no" come out from our mouths.

    There are so many unlucky children who have neither fathers nor mothers. My dear friends, we can make promises to ourselves that from now on there will be no bad words that come out from our mouths to our parents, take good care of our parents, even if it takes only a second to stay with them, they will be very happy.
