The Power of Story
When my dog Gracie disappeared six years ago, I really learned what I believe. Gracie escaped from our backyard around 2:00 p.m. We searched the neighborhood for hours but had no 16 . We put up advertisements, and by dark, we returned home, exhausted(精疲力竭).
On the second day, I called my animal doctor, the SPCA, and the animal shelter(收容所). Nothing. I felt lost.
If I knew Gracie had been 17 , I would have been heartbroken. If I knew she was caught somewhere, I would save her. If I knew she had found a better home, I would be 18 yet relieved(放心的). But how do I deal with the unknown? Wait patiently? Search endlessly? Give up?
The third day, while I was searching in the woods with my friend Rhea, I told her losing Gracie was like losing faith(信任) in everything. Rhea smiled and said, "You know, maybe Gracie’s on a great adventure." It seems 19 , but I felt better then. Rhea’s words 20 me what, as a writer, I surely have faith in: the power of story.
