On June 17, my daughter gave me a new wallet as a Father’s Day present. It was a perfect gift considering that my purse that had been used for nearly a decade was much_______. I took the opportunity as well to_______some cards, notes, or small pieces of paper in it that were no longer needed. As I_______out the old wallet, I was amazed at how much it held. Carefully I went through its_______piece by piece and moved them to their new home. As I was looking at them, I_______the organ donor card that I had signed nine years ago. _______, it hadn’t yet been called into use. Still, it felt good knowing that_______something should happen to me, I would be able to give another person a second chance of life.

As I_______the card into my new wallet, I started thinking about all the_______things we can donate to help others today. We can donate our time, our talents or our wisdom. We can________our kindness. We can________our light into the darkness. We can donate every bit of love and joy inside of us. And the greatest thing of all is that when we do, we________that we have even more to share than when we started.

Maybe you wish to________an organ donor card so you can give something after you die. But don’t be afraid to give something now while you are still________. Be a donor. Make your entire life a gift to others. Donate all your________things to make this world better and brighter place.

I wanted to be a journalist. But my parents_________that math makes money, so I went to an engineering school. In my post-university young-adult life, I've managed to become_________successful. As a female_________, I worked for a big oil company and owned a home. My life was _________ in front of me, and I didn't like what I saw.

So, I did what any respectable 24-year-old would do and left my_________behind. I said goodbye to my job and_________my suitcase. I_________myself into the world with the grace and beauty of a baby deer taking its first step with a skateboard under its feet.

My knees _________ when I was riding a mountain bike through the red rocks of Utah. I partied at a spring bath party in Budapest. I spent four days_________through Yellowstone National Park with 50 pounds on my back. I took a __________ along the Danube River with someone from the hostel.

They were just small everyday__________that happened abroad, leading me to realize that the true value of my flight tickets were not the__________but rather becoming a(n)__________participant in my own life.

I now spend less time online shopping and more time__________alone on the floor listening to an album cover-to-cover. I ask my friends how they're doing; sometimes, I__________them with flowers to see them smile. I tell everyone to have a good day.

Maybe I'll continue to be__________for the next five years and touch down in more countries.

Maybe I'll stay grounded in my home city, but the idea no longer__________me.__________with new wisdom earned in a year of travel, I know with complete__________that there's adventure hiding in any aspect of my life — as long as I'm__________enough to look for it.
