My baby Rob, the youngest of my three sons, was starting kindergarten. I had already 36 this twice before, but this time it was more difficult.
What if he was scared? What if he missed me? I decided to do the grown-up thing and not tell him how I 37. I assured him that 38 would be just fine.
The night 39 school started, Rob and I sat down. I hugged him and asked if he had any questions about what he could expect tomorrow ... “I’m 40 excited, Mommy, but I’m a little 41 about what I should do 42 I miss you,” he said sheepishly (胆怯地).
I had just the 43 for him.
I 44 my hand and showed him a new, shiny penny. “This is a 45 magic penny. If you’re scared or if you 46 me, just put your hand in your pocket and 47 this lucky penny. 48 you hold it and 49 me, I will know and be thinking about you , too.”
It was absolutely 50. I’d be thinking about him every minute.
The next day as he 51 his schoolroom, he looked back at me. My baby looked so sure of himself. I smiled back at him and hoped that he didn’t see the 52 in my eyes.
The hours moved slowly but finally it was time to pick him 53. “I had a great day!” he 54. “There were a few times I was worried, but I held on to my lucky penny and that made me feel better.”
After about a week I found it on his dresser. I guessed he was secure enough in his new situation that he didn’t 55 it anymore.
I, on the other hand, kept it in my pocket for a few more days.

It was eight hours later that day broke, and then of the rescue.
It is almost that he could stand(忍受) the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his : “First of all, I up my physical, checked up my conditions and found myself not in mortal danger. As there was no to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to stop the wound(伤) from . In this way I dozed off(打瞌睡).”

If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to themselves, they would probably sense a faint light glimmering(发出微弱的光) not far away.

A few years ago, my younger brother and I went to Norfolk, Virginian by plane. , before we took off, we heard the pilot's voice throughout the plane, “Sorry, ladies and gentlemen. We have no on the plane. We have a generator(发电机), and we are going to the engines with it. We will in the air and head to Norfolk, and see what happens. ”
See what happens? We are going to get up in the air, and see what happens? At this point, one woman started crying. “Oh, no! We are going to !” There were sighs of and anxiety quickly spreading throughout the plane, and we hadn't even yet. Thirty minutes passed and we were still there. Then the voice of the pilot came over again,“ Ladies and gentlemen, I know you are , so are we. We only have one engine going right now, and it is working double time.”
There was crying we had walked in to grave(坟墓). But the pilot told us our one engine was working double time, and his was to get up in the air and see what happens! Then we did. We got up in the air and happened. We arrived in Norfolk and everyone for still being alive.
Although I do sincerely like to have a plan “see what happens”, it really isn’t such a bad life strategy. All too often, I would see people pursuing their goals with inaction just because they don’t have success. Actually, success will never be guaranteed. The thing that you can do is just get up in the air, and see what happens.
If you are planning to learn a new skill, “get up in the air, and see what happens!” It might not be as as you thought. You might be smarter than you thought, and the result could be very ! So don’t stay there trying nothing just because there is no of guaranteed success.
