It was pouring outside. We all stood there
21 , some patiently, others annoyed
22 nature messed （弄糟）their hurried day. I got lost in the sound and sight of the heavens
23 away the dirt and dust of the world.
“Mom, let’s run through the rain,” a girl’s voice
24 me .
“No, honey. We’ll wait until it
25 down a bit,” Mom replied.
The young girl waited about another minute and
26 : “Mom, let’s run through the
rain .”
“We’ll get wet if we do,” Mom said.
“No , we won’t , Mom. That’s not what you said this morning,” the young girl said
as she
27 her Mom’s arm .
“This morning?
28 did I say we could run through the rain and not get wet?”
“Don’t you remember? When you were talking to Daddy about his cancer, you said ,” If God can get us through this , he can get us through
29 .”
The entire crowd turned
30 . Mom paused and thought for a moment about
31 she would say. Now some would laugh it off and scold her for being
32 . But then we heard,
“Honey, you are
33. Let’s run through the rain. If we get wet, maybe we just need washing,”
Mom said. Then
34 they ran.
We all stood
35 , smiling and laughing as they ran past the cars. Yes, they got wet. But they were
36 by a few who screamed and laughed like children all the
37 to their cars. Circumstances （境况）or people can take away your material possessions, and they can even take away your
38 . But no one can ever take away your precious
39 . So, don’t forget to make time and take the
40 to make memories every day! I hope you still take the time to run through the rain.
