Every year when Thanksgiving comes around, I remember a bit of wisdom handed to me. Having some ______ in my life, I took them to a friend. “Why is it, “I ________, “that I can’t seem to deal with these problems?” “It’s ________ you aren’t grateful enough.” I was ________ and asked, “What are you talking about?” “I’m talking”, he said, “about a ________ of living that you will discover someday. Be grateful to the others, and your life will grow ________.”

Half a century of observing life has left me ________ that what my friend said is true. Over and over again that I have seen the attitude of ________ brings about changes in people’s lives. I once knew a man — William Stidger — who ________ from an emotional breakdown. For months he was depressed, ________ to work. No doctors seemed to be able to help him, but a friend ________ him to try what he called the therapy (疗法) of ________. “Many people have helped you in your life,” the friend said. “Pick any one of them — I dare you — and ________ thank him.” He recalled a ________ who had got him interested in poetry. He wrote a note, telling her what that ________ had meant to him. Soon a reply came back. “When I read your letter,” it said, “my eyes were ________ by tears. Yours is the first letter of thanks I ever ________ from one of my students. I shall treasure it always.”

William Stidger ________ writing notes of appreciation to others, until he had written over 500 such letters. By then, fully ________, he was back at work.
