Sixteen years ago, I learnedan important life1in the back of a New City taxi.

I was on my2to Grand Central Station, andwe were driving in the right way when a black car3sped out of a parking spaceright in front of us.

My driver hit the brakes(刹车) hard, and4the other car by a few centimeters.The driver of the other car, the man who had just nearly caused a huge accident,started5at us. My taxi driver just smiledand moved his hand. He was really6!

"Why did you just do that?"I asked him, "This guy almost destroyed your car and7have sent us to the hospital!"This was when my taxi driver told me8I now call "the Law ofGarbage Trucks (垃圾车)".

"Many people are like garbagetrucks. They run around full of garbage, full of9and full of disappointment,"he said. "10their garbage is more and more,they need a place to dump(丢弃) it, and if you let them, they'lldump it on you. So when someone wants to dump garbage on you, just smile, move yourhand, wish them well, and move on. You'll be11 because of what you have done.

I started thinking,12do I let garbage trucks runright over me? And how often do I take their garbage and dump it on other people– at work, at home, or on the street? It was on that day that I said: "I'mnot going to dump13."

Successful people do not letGarbage Trucks influence them. What about you? If you let more garbage trucks passyou by, you'll be happier. Life is too short to14 in the morning with regrets. So, love the peoplewho treat you right.15 the ones who don't.

I was once in a class in which none of the students would ever graduate. Each student in our class seemed to be a troublemaker. None of our teachers had stayed for longer than a week until Mrs Cosby came.

One morning, the door to the classroom opened and a new teacher walked in. It was Mrs Cosby. She looked very kind. And we surely gave her a hard time and thought she wouldn't stay for more than a week. But no matter what we did, she never got stroppywith us. And slowly we got worried about how to drive her away.

Then came the last day of the first month. She went into the classroom with some pieces of paper in her hands. We feared that the worst would happen—a test. However, it wasn't a test, but something surprised us. Mrs Cosby gave each of us a piece of paper. On each piece of paper she had written what the student had been good at during the last month. We were surprised, No one had ever encouraged us before she came. We had been always told we were the silliest in the world. But she told us we were intelligent in some way.

From that day we started to believe in ourselves. From that day we stopped making her life hard and began to study really hard. Other teachers couldn't understand what happened to us. But we knew the reason—each month we got a piece of paper telling us what we were good at from Mrs Cosby.

And then came the day of our graduation. That day Mrs Cosby told us that she was proud of us. She said she knew we were good students and that we could succeed. What we needed was to believe in ourselves.

I will never forget the tenth summer of childhood with my grandfather in western Norway at the mountain farm where my mother was born. As a boy, I always thought people simply bought whatever they need. Whether Grandfather know this, I don't know. One day he said, "Come, I have something for you."

I followed him to a workroom. "You should have a toy boat. You can sail it at Storvassdal." He said. Great, I thought, looking around for the boat. But there was none.

Grandfather pointed to a block of wood. "The boat is in there," he said. Then he handed me some tools and showed me how to use them properly. "It'll be a fine boat, and you'll make it with your own hands," he said," No one can give you what you do for yourself." The words rang in my head as I worked. Finished the boat. It wasn't much to look at, but I was pound. Then I sailed it at Storvassdal.

We had to return to America. "You cannot bring that boat home with you," my mother said. We already had too much baggage. Feeling sad, I hid my boat under a big rock at Storvassdal.

I said good-bye to Grandfather, not knowing I would never see him again.

In 1964, I went to Storvassdal with my parents and my wife and children. To my surprise, for 34 years my treasure stayed here, waiting for my return. I felt we three were together again although my grandfather had died 22 years before.

I carved"1930"and"1964" on its side and put it back.

I returned to the lake in 1968, 1971, 1977 and 1988. Each time I had the boat and carved the year, my grandfather seemed near.

My last trip to Storvassdal was in 1991. I brought my granddaughters: Catherine, 13; Claire,12. I hoped they would understand the importance of the little boat and its simple message. At Storvassdal, Claire said softly,"Grandpa, someday I'll come back." She added," And I'll bring my children."
