Every night, my mother would come to my room, lean down and push my long hair out of the way, then kiss my forehead．

I don't remember when it first started 26  me --her hands pushing my hair that way. But it did make me annoyed, for they felt work - worn and  27  against my young skin．Finally, one night, I shouted at her: “Don' t do that any more --your 28  are too rough！" She didn’t say anything in 29 ．But never again did my mother close out my day with that _30 expression of her love．

Time after time, with the  31 years, my thoughts returned to that night． I'm not a little girl any more．Mom is in her mid - seventies, and those hands I   32   thought to be so rough are still doing things for me and my 33  .

Now, my own children are  34  Mom no longer has Dad．It was late on that Thanksgiving Eve, as I went to sleep in the bedroom of my youth, a familiar hand   35   before stealing across my face to brush the   36  from  my forehead．Then a kiss, ever so _37  touched my brow．In my 38    , thousands of times, I  39  the night my young voice complained．40   Mom's hand in my hand, I said how  41   I was for that night．I thought she'd remember, as I did,_42   Mom didn't know what I was talking about．She had forgotten—and   43   —long ago．

That night, I fell asleep with a new   44   for my gentle mother and her caring hands． And the   45   I had carried around for so long was nowhere to be found．

How I Turned to Be Optimistic

　　I began to grow up that winter nigh when my parents and I were returning from my aunt's house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America．We were on the bus then．I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me．I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning．

　　I do not remember myself crying for this reason again．In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives．When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see－the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures．The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then．

　　The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once．For the first two years in New York I was really lost－h(huán)aving to study in three schools as a result of family moves．I did not quite know what I was or what l should be．Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me．Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other．I was often sad, and saw no end to“the hard times．”

　　My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home．I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews With lmmigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives．

　　From my experiences I have learned one important rule：almost all common troubles eventually go away!Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little!I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy．
