    　　For years my husband, John, and I had dreamed of taking our three kids to Disney World．We'd planned our trip down to the last detail and dollar．But in Georgia, halfway there, our car broke down．

    　　At a garage, the mechanic promised our Mercury Sable would be repaired by the next week．Meanwhile, John tried to find us a rental car．After many phone calls, John finally found a car．Luckily, our auto club would pick up the tab．We ended up arriving there three hours behind schedule．We tried every ride and met Mickey．

    　　At the end of the long weekend we called the garage to check on our car．It turned out that the mechanic hadn't even looked at it yet! John got on the phone again．He found it would cost more than ＄ l, 100 to rent a car to drive home．That plus a plane ticket for him to go pick up our own car and we'd be out over ＄2,000!

    　　I wailed(痛哭)and asked John, "What are we going to do?" He said, "It'll work out．" John encouraged me not to lose heart and he insisted on trying to find a way out．Amazingly, John found a car transport company that had a car we could drive home, paying only for gas! But all the way home I couldn't stop thinking about the money we'd still need for John's trip back to the garage and another long driving home．

    　　When we got home, the high school student who had fed our cats asked how our trip was．I gave him the rundown, "Things worked out okay except that our car's still stuck in Georgia．" "No problem," he said．"I'm heading to Florida for a spring break with my parents．We'll be glad to stop in Georgia on the way back and pick up your car．"

    　　We ended up spending only ＄50 more than we'd budgeted．The next week, our car was back, and I had a new understanding of dealing with trouble．Whatever happens, if you never give up, a good solution will come out at last．

    　　People say teenagers are no good．They make too much noise in shopping malls; they drive carelessly up and down America’s main streets．And at least some of the time those things are true．But we shouldn’t forget that there are hard moments in the life of a teenager too．

    　　I watched such a moment not long ago at a woman’s funeral(葬礼)which happened in a church．A teenage grandson stepped forward．Softly he began：“I want to share a few values that Nana taught me．She never failed to see light in any situation．When our family dog would attack her, what would Nana say? ‘Oh, what beautiful markings that dog has．’ That was Nana．

    　　“She was a strong woman who often lived in the shadow of my grandpa, who was a successful businessman in this city．But she was the one behind the scenes who provided the strength and support for Grandpa’s career,” he said, with a voice now trembling．“That was Nana’s way．” Finally, in a voice breaking free of sorrow, he looked up and said, “Nana taught me courage．She put up a fight to the end, when she died peacefully, which is how she lived her life．That was Nana’s way, and I hope I can carry on in the same manner．”

    　　There are no hearts as sensitive(敏感的)as those of teenagers, because everything is happening to them for the first time．The trouble with teenagers is that they haven’t learned to be controlled．When that boy rose to speak about the woman who had been his dearest friend, his honest voice dragged each of us out into the open where we could no longer hide．I was moved and learned a lot．
