As a young man, Al was a skilled artist, a potter. He had a wife and two fine sons. One night, his oldest son 36 a severe stomachache and died suddenly. To make matters worse, his wife left him a short time later, 37 him alone with his six-year- old younger son. The hurt and pain of the two situations were _ 38 _ Al could handle, and he _ 39 to alcohol. Al began to lose everything he possessed---his home, his land, his art objects, everything. 40 he died alone in a San Francisco motel room.
When I heard of Al’s death, I reacted with the same disdain（蔑视）the world shows for one who ends his life with nothing 41 _ left. “What a complete failure!” I thought. “What a totally 42 life!”
As time went by, I began to re-evaluate my earlier _ 43 judgment. You see, I knew Al’s now adult son, Ernie. He is one of the kindest, most 44 most loving men I have ever known. I watched Ernie with his children and saw the free 45 of the love between them. I knew that kindness and caring had to come 46 somewhere.
I hadn’t heard Ernie talk much about his father. It is so hard to 47 an alcoholic. One day I get up my 48 to ask him. “I’m really puzzled by something,” I said. “I know your father was basically the only one to 49 you. 50 on earth did he do that you became such a special person?
Ernie sat _ 51 _ and thought for a few moments. Then he said, “From my _52 memories as a child until I left home at 18, Al came into my room every night, gave me a 53 and said, “I love you, son.”
Tears came to my eyes as I realized what a fool I had been to 54 Al as a failure. He had not left any material possession behind, 55 he left behind one of the finest, most giving men I have ever known.
