In Glasgow Scotland a young lady like a lot of teens today got tired of home. The daughter objected to her family’s　 1　 lifestyle and said “I don’t want your God. I am leaving!”

She left home. Before long she was disappointed and unable to find a job so she took to the streets to do everything she could to 2 . Many years passed by her father died her mother grew　 3　 and the daughter became more and more entrenched (固执) in her way of life .

No contact was made between mother and daughter during these years. The mother having　 4　 her daughter’s whereabouts went to the poor part of the city in　 5　 of her daughter. She stopped at each of the rescue missions with a simple　 6　 . “Would you allow me to　 7　 this picture?” It was a picture of the smiling gray-haired mother with a handwritten 8　 at the bottom: “I love you still…come home!”

One day the daughter wandered into a rescue mission for a hot meal. She sat　 9　　 listening to the service all the while letting her　 10 wander over to the bulletin board. There she saw the picture and thought could that be my mother?

She couldn’t　 11 until the service was over. She stood and went to look .It was her mother and there were those words “I love you still…come home!”　 12　 she stood in front of the picture she wept. It was too　 13 　to be true.

It was night but she was so　 14 by the message that she started walking home. 15　　 the time she arrived it was early in the morning. She was afraid and　 16 　her way timidly. As she knocked the door　 17 open on its own. She thought someone must have broken into the house. Concerned for her mother’s　 18 　 the young woman ran to the bedroom and shook her mother awake and said “It’s me! It’s me! I’m home!”

The mother couldn’t believe her eyes. They fell into each other’s arms. The daughter said “I was so worried and 19 someone had broken in.” The mother replied gently “No dear. From the day you left that door has never been　 20　 .”
