Holiday was over. The school bus was due to pick up my daughters in four minutes, and they were doing their last minute gathering of shoes, water bottles, lunches, and backpacks.
“Don’t forget it’s Tuesday,” I called to my eight-year-old daughter as she headed for the boots lying next to the door. “Tennis shoes for P.E.,” I added.
My child suddenly stopped and turned to face me, grasping her right arm with her left. “Mama, my arm hurts today. Could you write me a note that says my arm is sore?”
“You want me to write a note now? You should have thought of it sooner.”
“Sore arm? Let me guess — too much Nintendo Wii (一种电子游戏)?”
“You will be fine. Come on, we need to go. The bus is coming.”
I thought of those responses.
But I didn’t say them.
From past experiences, I could see how this situation would play out if I chose sarcasm (讽刺), unfriendliness, and annoyance over understanding, responsiveness, and respect.
Choosing unfriendliness in a moment of conflict had once resulted in breaking into pieces my husband’s coffee pot in the kitchen sink.
And then came regret.
Anger was the reason I lost all control one day when I was unable to locate my car in a sea of vehicles.
And then came regret.
Despite the years that have passed since those incidents, I can still see my children’s faces, staring at me in horror wondering what had become of me in those moments.
I disliked myself in those moments. I wanted to run away and hide. But most of all, I didn’t want to be that changeable person anymore.
Facing one of those situations, I knew my response could either make or break the situation. So I took a 3-second pause before opening my mouth.
I noticed there were real tears welling in my daughter’s eyes…real tears she didn’t want to fall… real tears she was actually pushing back with her fingers.
That 3-second pause was just long enough for me to realize this sadness, this pain, this worry of my child’s was real. And a note to the P.E. teacher was very important to her.
I wrote the quick note, and handed it to my child. I never knew I had the power to hand someone a little bit of peace, comfort…
“Thank you, Mama,” she said quietly, color coming back to her face.
I thought of my child’s sore arm throughout the day. And although I don’t always make the right choice with my words, I knew I had that time.
“When I got to P. E., I saw they were doing something I could do, even with a sore arm. So I kept the note in my pocket and played,” my daughter told me later.
Thank goodness, things are different now. The goal of each tough situation is to speak in a way I can be heard … to listen in a way that the other person can be heard … and to walk away feeling at peace with the way the situation was handled.
I’ve started a new list — a list of thoughtful responses that I’ve offered. This list inspired me to write a hopeful reminder — 3-second pauses have the power to save a morning, spare some pain, and prevent regret from being a lifelong companion. May it bring someone else hope too!
1.Why did the author’s daughter want a note?
A. She wanted to ask for a one-day sick leave.
B. She was unable to exercise for a sore arm.
C. She didn’t feel like attending a P.E. lesson.
D. She wanted to be informed of the schedule.
2.Instead of responding instantly, the author paused for a while, because _________.
A. she was wondering how the arm was hurt
B. she doubted if her daughter was telling a lie
C. she was angry for her daughter’s skipping P.E.
D. she was seeking a better solution to the situation
3.How did the children feel when the author lost control of herself?
A. Disappointed and frightened. B. Confused and scared.
C. Painful and regretful. D. Unfriendly and annoyed.
4.Why did the author decide to write a note?
A. She wanted to make up for her past overreactions.
B. She didn’t want to make her daughter disappointed.
C. She thought it was proper to do so after consideration.
D. She didn’t want to start a conflict with her daughter.
5.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. A powerful motivator — regret. B. Regret never goes away easily.
C. A single error can bring a lifelong regret. D. Regret, it’s nice to see you go.
