My neighbor Josie was a good cook and college professor.We have been good friends for many years.Each early morning，Josie would invite me to join her in walking and she would make breakfast for me as a reward!
    Josie planted a lovely garden.Every flower and vegetable made its debut（首秀） once a year.There were so many kinds that I could not even recognize what was growing，and we had the freshest salads in the neighborhood all summer long!
    Each evening，Josie and I would sit in front of the garden.We would have a chat，exchanging our world views as well as funny jokes.However，one evening， Josie was a"no-show".Then I heard the ambulance and saw her husband and children running outside.Josie suffered a stroke（中風）.
    Later，when I set eyes on her，she was in a wheelchair，covered in a thick blanket.She looked smaller and older than before.But how she chose to face it made me surprised.During the days when Josie had some strength，her husband wheeled her into the living room，and they watched old movies together.She called it"date-time".And during the most special days when Josie was doing well，her husband took her for a walk outside in her wheelchair.She called it"going on vacation".Despite the fact that Josie was not expected to make a full recovery，they continued to watch movies and took lots of mini-vacations.
    She is grateful for listening to her grandchildren telling stories to her，smelling a summer barbecue，sharing a laugh with her favorite neighbor，and being here for another day.I am thankful for her simple life lesson：Find the positive，and you will find your reason to live.
