My
neighbor Josie, a college professor, ran circles around women twenty years
younger than her. For some reason, she took a(n)
11 to me and always chose to fit me into her days.
She would call me to taste-test recipes, which was a
12 .
Her garden was a testament(证明) to
Josie's green thumb. In some instances, I could not even
13 what was growing, but we had the freshest
salads in the neighborhood all summer long!
Early
each morning, Josie forced me to
14 her on her “daily constitutional”, as she
liked to call it. I believe we were supposed to be walking, but it felt more
like mini-sprints (running at full speed). I had my rules. If I couldn’t talk
or
15 , I would stop. I stopped every day
at the end of our block. Josie would
16 a half hour later and make me breakfast as a
17 for making the
attempt!
Each
night around sunset, Josie and I would touch our base on our porches(门廊) before
retiring for the evening. We would
18 back and forth, exchanging worldviews.
One
evening, Josie was a “no-show.” I started over to her door when I
19 the ambulance and saw her husband and children
20 outside. Josie had suffered a
stroke(中风).
When
I next set eyes on her, she was leaning in a
wheelchair. She looked smaller and older than I remembered, but her eyes were
clear and her smile was
21 bright. Her speech was
22 ,
but her voice still had the lift I loved.
Josie’s
world had changed overnight from travel destinations to the few rooms in her
house.
23 it’s what she does with her surroundings that
gives me pause and perspective.
When Josie feels well enough to
24 ,
her husband brings her breakfast in bed. She calls it “dining out”. They listen
to soft music and light candles. On days when Josie has some
25 ,
her husband wheels her into the living room, and they watch old movies
together. She calls it “date night.” When Josie is doing really well, her
husband takes her for a(n)
26 outside in
her wheelchair. She calls it “going on vacation”.
Despite the
27 that Josie is not expected to make a full
recovery, she
28 to
dine out, go to the movies and take lots of mini-vacations. She is grateful to
smell a summer barbecue, to share a laugh with her favorite neighbor, and to be
here for
29 day.
I am
30 for her simple life lesson. Find the positive,
and you’ve found your reason to live.
