I think we should try to find a happy memory, something to lift us up on those unpleasant days. I'm saying this because I think I just found mine!
I had some work in Glasgow then. I was on a really 36 schedule, which meant I would have no time for myself all day. I was having one of those days, the train was completely 37 and the conversation going on around me seemed to be particularly 38 . Besides, I had a bit of a headache. _39 quickly across the station hall, I fished some 40 from my pocket. There was usually someone at the exit 41 The Big Issue ( a magazine that helps homeless folk earn a living).
_42 the crowd parted ways at the bottom of the hall, I saw someone selling the
Big Issue. She really looked like she'd been sleeping 43 . Her clothes were 44 and she obviously hadn't had a scrub up (擦洗) for quite a while.
As I 45 the exit, I saw that she was 46 from side to side. At first I thought maybe she was trying to keep 47 against the biting wind. But she wasn't, she was moving in time to a 48 . I couldn’t hear her, but I could see her lips moving.
When I got closer, I saw a white 49 hanging from her elbow and noticed that she had sunken eyes. She was 50 , dirty and living on tile streets. I came closer and through the 51 of the traffic I heard her 52 the immortal (不朽的)line, "... and I think to myself, what a wonderful world!"
I bought her last magazine for twice what I'd originally 53 . She thanked me, then she 54_ her belongings and went tapping off along the pavement – still singing!
So, I have my happy 55 for the day. And I think it will stay with me a long, long time.
