At the age of 13, I was angry and rebellious(叛逆的),with little regard for anything my parents had to say, 1 if it had to do with me. 2 so many teenagers, I struggled to escape from anything that didn’t 3 my picture of the world. A “brilliant without need of guidance” kid, I 4 any open offering of love. In fact, I got 5 at the mention of the word love.
One night, after a particularly 6 day, I stormed into my room, shut the door and got into bed. 7 I lay down in the privacy of my bed, my hands slipped under my pillow. There was a(n) 8 . I pulled it out and on the envelope it 9 “To read when you’re 10 ”.
Since I was alone, no one would know whether I read it or not, so I 11 it. It said: “Mike, I know life is hard right now, I know you are frustrated and I know we don’t do everything right. I also know that I love you completely and 12 you do or say will ever change that. I am here 13 you if you ever need to talk, and if you don’t, that’s 14 . Just know that 15 where you go or what you do in your life, I will always love you and be proud that you are my son. Love, Mom.”
That was the 16 of several “To read when you’re alone” letters. They were 17 mentioned until I was an adult. In the midst of my turbulent(不安分的)teen years, the letters were the calm assurance that I could be 18 in spite of my rebelliousness. Just before I fell asleep I thanked God that my mom knew what I, an angry teenager, 19 . Today when the seas of life get stormy, I know that just under my 20 there is that calm assurance that love — consistent, enduring, unconditional love — changes lives.
