After spending a weekend away with my adult son, I was so impressed by his generous heart that I sent him this letter.
Dear son,
I want to thank you for teaching me a very1lesson in life by the great example you2. When we
were eating at the café in Bondi and a person who had3his hamburger didn't have enough money to pay
for it, without any4, you went over and put the5$2 into his hand .
When we were leaving, you6threw a five-cent coin onto the pavement and said7like, "Some kids
will really enjoy8this."
Last week, a young man9me in the line at a petrol station didn't have10money to pay for his petrol.
I asked the money collector, "How much11is he?" She told me he had meant to put $15 of petrol in his car
12he had been looking at the wrong gauge (计量表) and put in 1513, which came to just over14. That
is an easy mistake15both gauges run fast.
Something made me think of you and16you did that night at the café in Bondi. I handed the man $6.
He was so17and said, "But why would you do this for me?" I just smiled as I thought of you.
Thank you again, son, for teaching me that "it's18to give than to receive." Now when I see a five-cent
coin on the19and want to pick it up, I think of you and leave it20, just in case some kid will get a kick
out of finding it.
Love always, Mum.

One of the most common complaints I hear from families is that they are not close. They may be close in proximity, but still not feel close as a 36_. They may live next door or in the same house, but not feel 37 .
Closeness is about 38 . We feel close when we feel 39 , when we feel loved and when we simply enjoy being together. We may live far apart and still feel close, or we may 40 a home yet feel distant.
Closeness is a family trait that 41 over time. It is planted by love, watered by honest sharing and fed by true listening. It grows slowly and sometimes 42 years to mature; but it’s roots grow deep. It can 43 most storm and sustain a family through the most 44 time.
I received a letter from a reader in Hawaii. She 45 out that the CEO of one of the island’s largest banks was 46 a run for governor. Since he was well—liked, he seemed to have a good 47 of winning.
But before filing papers, he 48 his mind, stating that he wanted to spend more time with his 49 . Not that elected officials cannot be family—oriented, but he felt he needed more time at home than the job 50 .
Ronald A Young, in the Honolulu Advertiser, said this about the candidate’s decision：”No matter what you 51 in the business world or the social world, if you fail the family, then you have not accomplished much. Failure or success does not 52 in the material wealth you provide them. It is 53 by what of yourself you give to them.”
He made a 54 to give the best of himself to his family. He 55 family closeness first, despite pressure to put more time elsewhere. It’s likely a decision he’ll never regret.
