This tradition was started by mom several years ago. My mom, my brother, my sister and I all went to the cancer treatment center with some flowers. Each patient, doctor ,and nurse received flower from us. “why do you send us flowers?” they would asked and our answer was that” it’s just because you’re special.”
this went on, we often sent even more of flowers. One day , I accidently found a boy was making
(beauty) cards in the street, with the words “just Because You’re Special” on them. Out of curiosity, I
(chat) with the boy and this remind me to make some cards to send together
some flowers .
Today, after our mom passed away from cancer, still take flowers to the patients ,doctors and nurses with our own “Just Because You ‘re Special “card
(tie) to them.
Even though the cancer treatment has moved to different location, we still pass this on. One patient told us (excited) that it was the first rose that he
(receive)over ten years and the rose made his life
(energy)during his stay in hospital . We plan to continue to do this and I will encourage more people to do this. Giving a flower to others might make their day special.

Umbrella is what we easily forget and leave behind in our daily life. When the weather is fine, we certainly don’t think of it; only when it's raining, we’ll carry it purposefully. But as soon as the rain stops, most likely we’ll forget we’ve put it. It has to wait patiently and pitifully for
owner to claim it, otherwise it’ll remain alone as a deserted umbrella.
Once I suddenly found my longtime (use) umbrella “disappeared” I really got lost and regretted quite some time
my own carelessness.
Several days later, out of my (expect), I saw it quietly stand in a corner of the house where I worked. I was extremely glad to regain it. Looking carefully at it, though it was so familiar
me, I found for the first time its wooden handle
(wear)out as a result of repeated rain-wash for years. I sought for it only when I needed it. It occurred to me that I should have paid
(much) attention to it.
It sets me thinking. Around us there are always people giving us support in silence just likeumbrella that protects us from the rain or any wretched weather. Will gou think of those individuals
have helped you get through difficlty when you are leading a comfortable life?
