My father was      a strong man who loved being active. But a terrible illness      all that away. Now he can no longer walk. And he must sit quietly in a chair all day. Even talking is      . One night, I went to visit him with my sisters. I told them about one of my beliefs. I said that we must very often give things up       we grow our youth, our beauty, our friends, but it always      that after we give something up,we gain something new in its place. Then suddenly my father spoke up, “But, Peter, I gave up      !What did I gain?” I thought and thought, but I could not think of anything to say.         he answered his own question: “I      the love of my family.” I looked at my sisters and saw tears in their eyes along with hope and thankfulness.
I was also      by his words. After that, when I began to feel irritated (恼怒的) at someone, I would remember his words and become      . If he could replace his great pain with a feeling of love for others, then I should be      to give up my small irritations. In this      ,I learned the power of acceptance from my father.
