  Tell Someone You Love Within: You Love Them
  In a class I teach for adults, I recently did the &unpardonable.& I gave the class homework! The assignment was to &go to someone you love within the next week and tell them you love them.It has to be someone you have never said those words to before or at least haven't shared those words with for a long time.& Now that doesn't sound like a very tough assignment, until you stop to realize that most of the men were over 35 and were raised in the generation of men that were taught that expressing emotions is not &macho.&Showing feelings or crying was just not done.So this was a very threatening assignment for some.
  At the beginning of our next class,I asked if someone wanted to share what happened when they told someone they loved them.I fully expected one of the women to volunteer, as was usually the case,but on this evening one of the men raised his hand.He appeared quite moved and a bit shaken. As he unfolded out of his chair,he began by saying, &Dennis, I was quite angry with you last week when you gave us this assignment.I didn't feel that I had anyone to say those words to, and besides, who were you to tell me to do something that personal? But as I began driving home my conscience started talking to me.It was telling me that I knew exactly who I needed to say I love you to.&
  &You see, five years ago, my father and I had a vicious disagreement and really never resolved it since that time.We avoided seeing each other unless we absolutely had to at Christmas or other family gatherings.But even then, we hardly spoke to each other. So last Tuesday by the time I got home I had convinced myself I was going to tell my father I loved him.It&s weird, but just making that decision seemed to lift a heavy load off my chest.''
  ''When I got home, I rushed into the house to tell my wife what I was going to do. She was already in bed, but I woke her up anyway. When I told her, she didn&t just get out of bed, she catapulted out and hugged me, and for the first time in our married life she saw me cry. We stayed up half the night drinking coffee and talking. It was great!&
  &The next morning I was up bright and early. I was so excited I could hardly sleep. I got to the office early and accomplished more in two hours than I had the whole day before.&
  &At 9:00 I called my dad to see if could come over after work. When he answered the phone, I just said, &Dad, can I come over after work tonight? I have something to tell you.& My dad responded with a grumpy, &Now what?& I assured him it wouldn&t take long, so he finally agreed.
  &At 5:30, I was at my parents& house ringing the doorbell, praying that Dad would answer the door. I was afraid if Mom answered that I would chicken out and tell her instead. But as luck would have it, Dad did answer the door.&
  &I didn&t waste any time & I took one step in the door and said, &Dad, I just came over to tell you that I love you.&
  &It was as if a transformation came over my dad. Before my eyes his face softened, the wrinkles seemed to disappear and he began to cry. He reached out and hugged me and said, &I love you too, son, but I&ve never been able to say it.&
  &It was such a precious moment I didn&t want to move. Mom walked by with tears in her eyes. I just waved and blew her a kiss. Dad and I hugged for a moment longer and then I left. I hadn&t felt that great in a long time.
  &But that&s not even my point. Two days after that visit, my dad, who had heart problems, but didn&t tell me, had an attack and ended up in the hospital, unconscious. I don&t know if he'll make it.
  &So my message to all of you in this is: Don&t wait to do the things you know need to be done. What if I had waited to tell my dad & maybe I will never get the chance again! Take the time to do what you need to do and do it now!&

  The Cobbler and the banker
  La Fontaine/拉。封丹
  皮匠和银行家
  A cobbler passed his time in singing froit was wonderful to see,whe was more contented in shoes,than was any of the seven sages.His neighbor,on the contrary,who was rolling in wealth,sung but little and slept less.Hwhen by chance he fell into a doze at day-break,the cobbler awoke him with his song.The banker complained sadly that Providence had not made sleep a saleable commodity,like edibles or drinkables.Having at length sent for the songster,he said to him,&How much a year do you earn,Master Gregory?&
  &How much a year,sir?&said the merry cobbler laughing,&I have reckon in that way,living as I do frosomehow I manage to reacheach day brings its meal.&
  &Well then!How much a day do you earn,my friend?&
  &Sometimes more,but the worst of it is,-and,without that our earnings would be very tolerable,-a number of days occur in the year on which we aand the curate,moreover,is constantly adding some new saint to the list.&
  The banker,laughing at his simplicity,said,&In the future I shall place you above want.Take this hundred crowns,preserve them carefully,and make use of them in time of need.&
  The cobbler fancied he beheld all the wealth which the earth had produced in the past century for the use of mankind.Returning home,he buried his money and his happiness at the same time,Nhe lost his voice,the moment he acquired that which is the source of so much grief.Sleep and cares,suspicions,and false alarms took its place,All day,his eye wandered in the direcand at night,if some stray cat made a noise,the cat was robbing him.At length the poor man ran to the house &Give my back.& said he,&sleep and my voice,and take your hundred crowns.&
  一个皮匠从早到晚在唱歌中度过。无论见到他本人或听见他的歌声都使人觉得很愉快。他对于制鞋工作比当上了希腊七对还要满足。
  与此相反,他的邻居是个银行家,拥有万贯家财,却很少唱歌,晚上也睡得不好。他偶尔在黎明时分迷迷糊糊刚入睡,皮匠的歌声便 于工作把他吵醒了。银行家郁郁寡欢地抱怨上帝没有睡眠也制成一种像食品或饮料那样可以买卖的商品。后来,银行家就叫人把这位歌手请来,问道:&格列戈里师傅,你一年赚多少钱?&
  &先生,你问我一年赚多少钱吗?&快乐的皮匠笑道:&我从来不算这笔帐,我是一天一天地过日子,总而言之坚持到年底,每天挣足三餐。&
  &啊,朋友,那么你一天赚多少钱呢?&
  &有时多一点,有时少一点;不过最糟糕的是一年中总有些日子不准我们做买卖,牧师又常常在圣徒名单上添新名字,否则我们的收入也还算不错的。&
  银行家被皮匠的直率逗笑了,他说:&我要你从今以后不愁没钱用。这一百枚钱你拿去,小心放好,需要时拿来用吧。&
  皮匠觉自己好像看到了过去几百年来大地为人类所需而制造出来的全部财富。他回到家中,埋藏好硬币,同时也埋葬了他的快乐。他 不再唱歌了;从他得到这种痛苦的根源那一刻起,他的嗓子就哑了。睡眠与他分手;取而代之的却是担心、怀疑、虚惊。白天,他的目光尽朝埋藏硬币的方向望;夜间,如果有只迷途的猫弄出一点声响,他就以为是有人来抢他的钱。最后,这个可怜的皮匠跑到他那富有的邻居家里说:&把你的一百枚钱拿回去,还我的睡眠和歌声来。&

  FOR SUCCESS
  LORD, behold our family here assembled.
  We thank Thee for this pla for the for the peace
for the hope with which
for the health, the work, the food, and the bright skies, that make
for our friends in all parts of the earth, and our friendly helpers in this foreign isle. Let peace abound in our small company. Purge out of every heart the lurking grudge. Give us grace and strength to forbear and to persevere. Offenders, give us the grace to accept and to forgive offenders.
  Forgetful ourselves, help us to bear cheerfully the forgetfulness of others. Give us courage and gaiety and the quiet mind. Spare to us our friends, soften to us our enemies. Bless us, if it may be, in all our innocent endeavours. If it may not, give us the strength to encounter that which is to come, that we be brave in peril, constant in tribulation, temperate in wrath, and in all changes of fortune, and, down to the gates of death, loyal and loving one to another.
  As the clay to the potter, as the windmill to the wind, as children of their sire, we beseech of Thee this help and mercy for Christ's sake.
