Every year on my birthday, from the time I turned 12, a white gardenia was sent to my house. No card came with it, and calls to the flower shop were not helpful at all, but I loved the beauty and sweet smell of the flower. After a while I stopped trying to discover the sender's name and was just delighted with the beautiful white flower in soft pink paper.
But I never stopped imagining who the giver might be. Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender. My mother encouraged this imagining. She'd ask me if there was someone for whom I had done a special kindness.Perhaps it was the old man across the street whose mail I'd delivered during the winter.As a girl, though, I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy I liked at school.
When I was 17, a boy broke my heart and I cried myself to sleep. When I woke up in the morning, there was a message on my mirror,“Heartily know, When half-god s go,The gods arrive.”I thought about those words for a long time. When I finally went to get the mirror cleaner, my mother knew everything was all right again. I don't remember ever shutting my door loudly in anger at her and shouting,“You don't understand!”because she did understand.
One month before my graduation, my father died. I felt very sad and didn't want to go to the coming graduation dance at all, and I didn't care if I had a new dress or not. But my mother, in her own sadness, would not let me miss any of those things. The day before the graduation dance, I found a new dress hanging in the living room. It was the right size! I didn't care if I had a new dress or not. But my mother did. She wanted her children to feel loved and lovable. In truth, my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia—lovely, strong and perfect with a bit of mystery.
My mother died ten days after I was married. I was 22. That was the year the gardenias stopped coming.

Chopsticks are pairs of sticks with the same length that have been used in most of eastern Asian countries for over 3,000 years. According to the history, the first chopsticks appeared in China over 5,000 years ago. During the Spring and Autumn Period,chopsticks made of copper(铜) and iron developed over a long period of time. Later the chopsticks with coating came in the Han Dynasty. Then gold and silver chopsticks followed. Different materials have been used to make chopsticks until now, among which the most valuable ones are made of ivory and green stone. Those can show how rich the owners are.
It was said that silver chopsticks would turn black at once if they touched poisoned(有毒的) food (but we know it was wrong today), so in history many emperors used silver chopsticks to check whether the food was bad for them or not before eating.Chopsticks are also regarded as gifts to others. In China, chopsticks are traditionally given to a daughter when she marries to hope that they will have a child very soon,because the pronunciation of word “chopsticks” in Chinese is like “quick child”. Also, people often believe chopsticks have something to do with good luck. So many families will choose to put new chopsticks on the table at dinner on New Year's Eve as a way of wishing for good luck while dropping chopsticks is a sign of bad luck.
It's believed that using chopsticks can increase fingers' flexibility(灵活性). Some experts also find that it can improve memory. Many westerners, businessmen and tourists put their knives and forks beside the bowls and plates but choose chopsticks in China.
