I had just knocked on Mrs. Rosewood’s door when I  36  her laughter in the rain. The doors to the garden opened next to her little apartment and the  37  of laughter had come from there.

“Ah, I  38  it just in time!” she said, smiling.

I waited for her to open the door and walked in after her. To my surprise, her living room walls were all covered with  pictures of comedians. “Can I ask yo u  39   you have these pictures here?”

“Isn’t it obvious (明显的)? I love to  40  ! Look here!”

The old lady opened a cupboard. I saw DVDs, dozens of them. 41  comedies. Only comedies.

“Is comedy a hobby of yours?” I asked.

“Not  42  ,” she said, “but a way of life, young man!” She smiled, and again I heard her laughter. The rain continued outside.

“The purpose of life is joy,” she said. “  43   try to hold on to the sound of laughter in the rain. Life is so  44  , and for so many people it is like a  45  day all the time. They are not happy. So you should be happy, and show them the way. Be the laughter in the rain for them. Be as happy as you can – only then can you spread happiness to others. ”
