As I was driving out of the store parking lot, they crossed in front of me．My first reaction was filled with   36   at being delayed for a whole ten seconds．But I quickly became   37   when I realized that it was an elderly   38    ．

       The man leaned on his   39   who walked in front of him．He not only used her for   40   but it was obvious that he was blind．The two of them  _41   as one—each needing the other to  42     in this fast-changing world．

   That little example of true strength   43   my whole personal perception(理解) of life that day．Suddenly I wasn’t so   44  having to work a few extra hours on Saturdays．I had my    45  ，and I was still   46   young．

   That picture of those two elderly people walking with dignity(尊严) and strength   47   me the entire week．My   48   wasn’t so bad after all．I had my health and a good job．I had a wonderful，          49   wife．I started to think—not only was I   50   to have these all, but so was that wonderful old couple，who， _51   the trials and sufferings of a long life，still had the love and support of each other to   52    them through this world．

   There are so many people out there just like that couple．My wife and I sometimes   53  ourselves in our old age, walking arm in arm into the sunset. That image always gives us a    54  feeling．Just remember, none of us would be here if it wasn’t for our elders．We all should spend a little extra time and patience,   55   helping our elder friends．
