I often think of the things that I wish I had told my mother.During the last few days of her life,I stayed with her.I wanted to tell her about those things and that I was proud to be her daughter,but I didn't.She was so sick at that time that she couldn't hear me at all.That was too late.
I'd had a lifetime to tell her all those things,so why did I wait?
My dad was a man of few words too,but he meant what he said.He always ended our calls with "Love you,Girl."
Those became the words I would cling to(緊握不放)when I learned he had died.I had all sorts of questions that I never asked him,but I never doubted his love.
Now,I have children and grandchildren of my own. ▲ They might get sick of it,but we'll never stop.
From late December to mid-February,we celebrate 11 birthdays in our big family.
It gets a little emotional(感人的).Last week,for example,we phoned my youngest son to wish him a happy birthday.I listened as my husband told our son how proud he was of him.
He ended the call,as always,with "I love you,buddy."
And I yelled, "Me,too!" I hoped he heard me.
When we tell someone what they mean to us,we don't need to be poetic or even smart.We just need to mean it,and to make sure they hear it.And we need to do it now,while we can.The best time to say "I love you" is always right now.

1.I got angry quite easily and was not good at communicating with others.Slowly,most of the people around me tried to keep away from me.
One day,as I was getting ready for school,my busy mother handed me a vest(背心).When I saw it,I knew that was my father's—I was taller and stronger than my father.So as I put on the vest,I felt as if I wasn't able to breathe!The feeling of anger was rising in my heart.My mother said sorry with a smile,but I was so angry that I let out a shout.Soon,I pulled the vest off my chest(胸口)—so wildly that I made a hole in it.Then I put on my own vest and rushed out before she could stop me.
Later,my mother shared these with my father.Instead of saying he would scold(訓斥) me,my father just asked my mother to mend(縫補) the vest.Then he wore it to work as usual.
When my mother told me about my father's action,I sat alone and thought a lot .Just imagining that he was wearing that broken vest in his office the whole day made me feel so terrible.But I had to say,my father did set a great example for me.That night I thought a lot.I promised myself that I would never let anger control my mind any longer.
Of course,there are times when I get angry.However,whenever that happens,I will try to remember my father's vest.
