Some people bring out the best in you in a way that you might never have fully realized on your own. My mom was one of those people.
My father died when I was nine months old, making my mom a single mother at the age of eighteen. While I was growing up, we lived a very   36  life. We had little money, but my mom gave me a lot of love. Each night, she sat me on her lap and spoke the words that would   37  my life, “Kemmons, you are certain to be a great man and you can do anything in life if you work hard enough to get it.”
At fourteen, I was hit by a car and the doctors said I would never   38  again. Every day, my mother spoke to me in her gentle, loving voice, telling me that no matter what those doctors said, I could walk again if I didn’t want to be bad enough. She   39  that message so deep into my heart that I finally believed her. A year later, I returned to school-walking on my own!
When the Great Depression（大蕭條）  40 , my mom lost her job. Then I left school to support（支撐） both of us. At that moment, I decided never to be   41  again.
Over the years, I experienced various levels of business success. But the real   42  point happened on a vacation I took with my wife and five kids in 1916. I was dissatisfied with the second-class hotels for families and was angry that they charged（收費）an extra $2 for each child. That was too   43  for most American families. I told my wife that I was going to open a hotel for families that would never charge extra for   44 . There were plenty of doubters at that time.
Not   45 , mom was one of my strongest supporters. She worked behind the desk and even designed the room style. As in any business, we experienced a lot of hard time. But with my mother’s words deeply rooted in my heart, I   46  doubted we would succeed. Fifteen years later, we had the largest hotel system in the world­ - Holiday Inn. In 1979 my company had 1,759 inns in more than fifty countries with an income of $1 billion a year.
You may not have started out life in the best situations. But if you can find a   47  in life worth working for and believe in yourself, nothing can stop you.

“You are my best friend.” It’s the nicest thing you can    36     to someone. It’s also the nicest thing you can    37    someone.

Good friendships begin in middle school. It’s the    38    you begin to develop your own personality. Your parents aren’t around so you    39    lots of time every day sharing your life with your classmates. You talk with them, you work with them and you become friends with them. But    40    them will become your “best” friend.

Best friends are the people who like you and    41     you the most. They are the    42    who are easy to work with and easy to have fun with.

Sometimes it’s    43    to find a best friend. And sometimes you can     44    a little lonely. But just because you don’t have best friend now, it doesn’t mean you    45     one in the future. Best friends seem to find each other as if by magic. And when you find your best friend, the magic will last forever.
