    My mom once told me that after I learned to say “Mama” and “Dada”, my third word was “No!” Sadly, I used that word too often as a boy. I didn’t want to eat my vegetables. I didn’t want to go to bed on time. I didn’t want to work in the garden. I would much rather read books than help my mom and grandma with the boring housework. Being the youngest of three sons, I probably said “no” a lot more than I should have.

As I grew up, I began to say “yes!” a lot more. I can remember making the bed and sweeping the floor. I felt really happy to help my parents. I can remember studying hard to get good grades in school and the pride in my parents’ eye when I got into college. I can remember learning that saying “yes” could bring more happiness into my life than saying “no” ever did.

Even now, I am still learning how to say “Yes”. My only advice to you is not to wait as long as I did. Say “yes” to life. Say “yes” to love. Say “yes” to helping others and making this word a better place. “Yes” may only be a word, but it can change your life.

B．would cause him a lot of trouble

C．made him very popular in college

    Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to make money for my schooling.

One day, my mother was sewing a quilt (缝被子). I silently sat beside her.

“Mum, is there love between you and Dad?” I asked in a very low voice.

With surprise in her eyes, she stopped her work for a while. Then she said, “Susan, look at this thread. It can hardly be seen, but it’s really there. It makes the quilt strong. If life is a quilt, love should be a thread. Love is inside.”

I couldn’t understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month.

After they were back. My mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road every day. They were so kind to each other and it seemed they were the happiest couple.

After two months my father still couldn’t walk by himself.

“Dad, how are you feeling now? I asked him one day.

“Susan, don’t worry about me,” he said. “I just like walking with your mum. I like this kind of life.” Reading his eyes, I knew he loves my mother deeply.

Now I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.
