In their last moment before the flight took off, I heard a father saying to his daughter, “I love you, I wish you enough.” The daughter said, “Daddy, our life together has been more than enough. Your love is all I ever needed. I wish you enough to.” They kissed goodbye and the daughter left. I could see the father was very sad.
Suddenly the father walked towards me and asked me, “Did you ever say goodbye to someone knowing it would be the last time?”
His words made me think of my father. Realizing that my father’s days were limited (有限的), I took the time to tell him face to face how much he meant to me. So I understood what this father was experiencing.
“Yes, I did.” I answered, “But why is this a last goodbye?”
“I am old and my daughter lives much too far away. Maybe her next trip back will be for my funeral (葬礼),” he said.
“When you were saying goodbye, I heard you say ‘I wish you enough’. What does that mean?”
He began to smile. “My parents used to say it to me. When we say ‘I wish you enough’, we want the other person to have a life filled with enough good things.” He stopped for a moment and continued, “I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright. I wish you enough rain to appreciate (欣赏、感激) the sun more. I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive. I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life seem much bigger… I wish you enough ‘Hellos’ to get you through the final ‘Goodbye’”.
He then said goodbye to me and walked away.

“Everything happens for the best,”my mother said whenever I faced disappointment (失望).“If you carry on,one day something good will happen.”
Mother was right,as I discovered after graduating (毕业) from college in 1932,I had decided to try for a job in radio,then work my way up to a sports announcer.I hitchhiked (搭便车) to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station and got turneddown every time.In one studio,a kind lady told me that big stations couldn’t risk hiring an inexperienced person.“Go out in the sticks and find a small station that’ll give you a chance,”she said.I thumbed home to Dixon,Illinois.
While there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon,my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local sportsman to manage its sports department (部门).Since Dixon was where I had played high school football,I applied.The job sounded just right for me.But I wasn’t hired.My mother noticed my disappointment.“Everything happens for the best.”Mom reminded me.Dad offered me the car to hunt a job.I tried WOC Radio in Davenport,Iowa.The program director, a wonderful Scotsman named Peter Mac Arthur told me they had already hired an announcer.
As I left his office,I asked aloud,“How can a guy get to be a sports announcer if he can’t get a job in a radio station?”I was waiting for the lift when I heard Mac Arthur calling,“What did you mean about sports? Do you know anything about football?’’ Then he stood me before a microphone and asked me to cover an imaginary (想象的) game.Last autumn,my team had won a game in the last 20 seconds with a 65-yard run.I did a 15-minute build-up to that play, and Peter told me I would cover Saturday’s game! On my way home,I thought of my mother’s words:“If you carry on,one day something good will happen.”
I often wonder what direction my life might have taken if I had gotten the job at Montgomery Ward.

Are people less happy or happier when they get older? If your answer is“happier”, then you are right,based on a study published seven years ago.It found that people become happier and experience less worry after age fifty.In fact,it found that by the age of eighty-five,people are happier with their life than they were at eighteen.
The finding came from a Gallup survey of more than three hundred and forty thousand adults in the United States in 2008.At that time,people were between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five.
Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study.His team found that levels of stress were the highest among adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five.Stress levels dropped sharply(急剧)after people reached their fifties.
Levels of happiness were the highest among the kids and those in their early seventies.
The survey also found that men and women have similar emotional patterns(情感模式)as they grow older.However, women at all ages reported more sadness,stress and worry than men did.
So why would happiness increase with age? One theory(推测)is that,as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions.They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.
