We lived in a very quiet neighborhood. One evening I heard a loud crash in the street. 36 that evening my wife had asked me to go to the store to get some soft drinks. It seemed like this would be a good time to let my teenage daughter Holly 37   her driving, so I sent her to the store in my truck.
At dinner my son talked about how much he liked my  38 . I enjoyed having it, but I said: “Guy, my heart is not set on that truck. I like it but it is just metal and won’t last forever. Never set your heart on anything that won’t last.
After hearing the loud noise, the whole family ran outside. My son shouted: “ Dad! Dad, Holly crashed your truck.”
My heart sank and my mind was 39 with conflicting thoughts. Was anyone hurt? Who else was involved? As I ran to the door, I heard a voice in my heart say: “Here is a chance to show Holly 40   you really love. She’ll never forget it.”
The accident had occurred in my own driveway. Holly had crashed my truck into our other vehicle, the family van (搬运车). In her inexperience, she had  41 _the brakes and the gas pedal. Holly was unhurt  42   but when I reached her, she was crying and saying:“Oh, Dad, I’m sorry. I know how much you love this truck.” I held her in my arms as she cried.
Later that week a friend stopped by and asked what had happened to my truck. I told her the whole story. Her eyes moistened(湿润) and she said: “That happened to me when I was a girl. I borrowed my dad’s car and  43 a log that had fallen across the road. I ruined the car. When I got home my Dad knocked me to the ground and began to kick me.”
Over 40 years later, she still felt the pain of the night. It was a deep wound on her  44  .
I remember how sad Holly was the night she crashed our truck, and how I comforted her. One day, when Holly  45   on her life, I want her to know that I love her a thousand times more than any piece of  46  .
I repaired the van, but the dent(凹陷) in my truck is still there today. Every day it reminds me of what really 47  in my life.

Four years ago, I felt lucky after escaping one of those terrible 2-mile runs. I hated ; it was just something that came easily to me. At that time, if you had told me that I would one day run a marathon, I’d have told you in all honesty that I had a better of winning the lottery(彩票).
The turning came when I met Mrs. Green. She was fifty years old, going through chemotherapy(化学疗法)for her cancer, and still to run 30 miles a week. I that if Mrs. Green could run 6 miles at a time, I could run at least two. In February, in cold weather, I started to walk a 2-mile around my neighborhood. Two months later, I the whole route, running for the first time. I felt exhausted, I felt happy.
Over the next several years, I continued to push each run for a few minutes, slowly building my endurance(耐力). I didn’t need to against other runners, for my most important competitor was myself.
After continuing to myself, I knew it was time to step my training up. I I would train for the Detroit Free Press/ Flagstar Marathon.
The race day came and I was filled with excitement and worry. It was the final time to see what I was made of. The ended up incredibly. I did through the last few miles, but after my journey, there was no doubt in my mind that I’d finished. As I the finish line, I experienced the strongest sense of and happiness I had ever had in my life. I am now a marathoner.
As John Bingham once said, “The isn’t that I finished. The miracle(奇迹) is that I had the to start.”
