A conversation with a Stranger

Last Sunday I sat on the bus talking with excitement and so ready to spend time in London with one of my best friends from college. As I took the window seat and wore headphones over ears, I almost didn’t _______ the elderly man sitting beside me.

Half an hour passed and I was still absorbed in my own world.______ the elderly man asked me a question, a simple question ________ the bus’s Wi-Fi connection, which turned into a two-hour ________.In fact, it directly ________ my personal life.

We talked much about my dreams, my fears and my life. I ________ more with this stranger on the bus than I have with any friend or family member in months. Maybe it had something to do with me just being _______ to let anyone I know close to me. I was _______ that the stranger was not only so deeply interested in getting to know me, but also just as willing to ______ me to my greatest abilities. He listened carefully to every word I said and gave some useful________ at times. Instead of politely_______ his head when I mentioned my major, he told me that my strong liking seemed to be psychology, but not the one I was studying. He said that he knew I would face difficulties if I studied psychology and that he fully understood my__________ for the failure.

The elderly man made me _______ the plans that I had laid out(安排) for my life with just that simple statement. He helped me realize that my neatly ________ plan for the next five years of my life wasn’t all that neat, but actuallycomplex and filled with ________.Most of all, he helped me _______ the anxiety and told me not stay away from it because of my fear for the unknown. I ______ a lot from talking with the elderly stranger.

Several days later, he emailed me, saying, “I think you’re ________ for great things no matter what you decide to do.” The email was filled with words of _______.In a few hours a stranger showed me a sense of kindness that made me realize that life is sometimes ________ but it is going to be okay.
