I’ve been writing now for 34 years. It all started when I was just 18 years old.
As a boy ____1____, I probably read hundreds of books, including mysteries, science fiction, thrillers, and just about any other ____2____ of book I could find. I had a ____3____ for knowledge that never seemed to disappear, no matter how many books I ____4____.
Then ____5____, I found that I too had ideas of my own that I wanted to write and share. I wanted to share things that were full of ____6____, love and joy. I tried to ____7____ my desire at first, but as any writer will tell you, once ideas ____8____ inside of you, they don’t leave you ____9____ until you write them down. I didn’t have a computer, or even a typewriter, but I ____10____ a pen and a notebook and wrote down everything that was burning ____11____ of me.
When I was done, I didn’t know how to ____12____ my work with the world without Internet then. Finally I sought out the ____13____ of my local newspaper and asked if he would like to ____14____ what I’d written. He was a man full of both wisdom and kindness. He not only printed my first story but agreed to publish anything else I was ____15____ to write.
After that, nothing could stop me. Years later, I even self-published two ____16____ of my stories in book form.
Through my writing, I slowly became a ____17____ person. Writing allowed me to ____18____ the goodness and light that exist in us all. I also found that we are all ____19____, whether we put pen to paper or not.
With every choice we make, with every thought we think, and with every ____20____ we take, we are writing our own life story.

What is intelligence anyway? When I was in the army , I ___61___ an intelligence test that all soldiers took, and, against ___62___ of 100, scored 160.
I had an auto-repair man once, who, on these intelligence tests, could not ___63___ have scored more than 80. ___64___ , when anything went wrong with my car I hurried to him — and he always___65___it.
Well, then, suppose my auto-repair man ___66___ questions for some intelligence tests. By every one of them I’d prove myself a___67___. In a world where I have to work with my___68___, I’d do poorly.
Consider my auto-repair man ___69___. He had a habit of telling____70____. One time he said, “Doc, a deaf-and-dumb  man ____71____ some nails.

I’ve been____78____that on all my customers today, but I knew____79____ I’d catch you.” “Why is that?” I asked. “Because you are so goddamned educated, Doc. I knew you couldn’t be very ____80____.”

My faith in human nature has never been so great as it was last weekend after our family get-together in the town of Vail.
On Saturday, we all went to the market right in the middle of the town. Near the end, we all ____81____ at the fountain near the bridge, and the kids waded (蹚水) around in the fountain until we ____82____. This is one of the busiest walking streets.
After we returned to the hotel late in the afternoon, my 7-year-old son Ponder ____83____ that nowhere could he find his backpack, which ____84____ his Gameboy and his watch. After a thorough ____85____ we determined that he must have left it at the fountain.
Ponder has never ____86____ anything. So we just take it for granted that he needs no supervision for managing his ____87____. He was upset, not about the Gameboy, but about the watch. “But Dad,” he said, through massive ____88____. “they don’t make that kind of watch anymore.” We were all very ____89____.
Our dinner reservation was at a restaurant just on the other side of the bridge, so I ____90____ him that we would not only search the area around the fountain when we went back for dinner, but we would also find the police and ask them if the backpack had been ____91____.
As we exited from the parking garage, we could see the fountain as we walked down the long staircase. I saw something black ____92____ there, but it was right next to a woman standing by the fountain, so I could not ____93____ what it was or if it was hers.
“See it, Dad?” Ponder shouted. “Don’t get too ____94____ because that may not be it,” I said. But that was it. It had been five or six hours since we left the fountain, and it was ____95____ there. There was no ID in it, and it looked like someone had looked through it and then set it right out where all could ____96____ it.
I actually ____97____ when we reached it and it was his! Everyone in our party was blown away by this “miracle”. In my wildest ____98____, I would never have imagined that this could happen nowadays.
What a charmed life, eh? I believe this was a perfect ____99____ for a child in losing something important…to lose it and feel the full ____100____ of that loss, and then to miraculously get it back.

Kothilwa was then ____177____ by journalists, social workers, and political leaders, all wanting to ____178____ Bhuiya.
