• 9．When I was a kid，my mom set aside some breakfast food for supper every now and then.I remember one night after a long，hard day at work，my mom placed a plate of eggs，sausage，and a plate of extremely burnt biscuits on the table.I waited to see if my dad would get annoyed.
     All my dad did was to reach for the biscuits，smile at my mom and ask me how my day at school had been.I don't remember what I told him that night but I do remember watching him add butter and jelly on that ugly burnt biscuit and ate every bite of that thing.He never made a face nor uttered a word about it!
     When I rose from the table that evening；I remember hearing my mom apologize to my dad for overcooking the biscuits and I will never forget what he said， "Honey，I love burnt biscuits every now and then."
     Later that night，I went to say good night to my daddy，and I wondered if he really liked his biscuits burnt.He wrapped me up in his arms and said gently. "Your mom put in a hard day at work today and she is really tired.Besides，a little burnt biscuit never hurt anyone!
     As I have grown older，I've thought about that many times.Life is full of imperfect things and imperfect people.Learning to accept each other's faults and choosing to celebrate each other's differences contribute to a healthy，growing，and lasting relationship.We could extend this philosophy to any relationship，such as a husband-wife，parent-child，or friendship.Don't put the key to your happiness in someone else's pocket.Keep it in your own.So，please pass me a biscuit and yes，the burnt one will do just fine.
