     High school was wonderful, but I had always felt uncomfortable as one of the taller members of my class,

standing a head above the other girls and stooping (弯腰) at the back of the line to avoid sticking out.

     I especially hated being around large groups of people like during the social hour after the church services.

     My grandfather would watch me grow increasingly uncomfortable, but he didn't laugh at me or try to

comfort me. Instead, he would warn me. "Stand straight and tall," he'd say, as I tried to shrink (退缩).

     And each time, I would obey him. Even at age 15, I understood that his advice was about more than just

feet and inches.

     My grandfather grew up in war-torn Europe. When German soldiers took his hometown, the beautiful and

exciting city of Tarnow, Poland, he joined the Soviet army for his country's freedom. "Stand straight, stand

tall," meant something else back then. I trusted my grandfather more than anyone else in my childhood. And

whenever I was afraid of something, he would tell me stories of his life.

     After the war, he took a boat for America on January 27,1947. All alone in a new country, he was

frightened about his future.

     Still, he marched head-on in the streets of New York. Soon he met other European immigrants, each of

them trying to find his or her own way.

     If they could do it, why couldn't he? "Stand straight, stand tall," he would told himself. 

     At first my grandfather retused to enter an American church. He was angry with God for the loss of his

whole family back in Europe. But soon he felt his self-confidence returning. When he walked into the church

that first time, he walked in proudly.
