Love cures people—both the ones who give it and the ones who receive it.

——Dr. Karl Menninger

    I was being interviewed by a senior manager for a major insurance company. I told him   41  that the main reason why I was  42  with them was my need to keep my family in Boston. My wife of 26 years old had recently died of a heart attack . A(n)   43  in Boston would also help me reduce some of the pain of the loss. Bruce ,the interviewer ,was politely sympathetic, and didn’t probe(探查) any  44  .He acknowledged my loss and ,with great respect ,moved on to another  45 .

    After the next  46  of interview , Bruce took me to lunch with another manager .Then he asked me to take a  47  with him. He told me that he ,  48 , had lost his wife .And he had also been married 20 years and had three children. In his sharing, I realized that he had  49  the same pain  50  I had , a pain that was almost 51  to explain to someone who had not  52  a loved  53 . He offered his business card and home phone number and  54  that, if I needed help or just wanted someone to  55 , I should feel  56  to give him a call. No matter whether I got the job or not, he wanted me to know that he was there if I  57  needed any help.

    From that one act of kindness, when he had no idea  58  we would see each other again, he helped me  59  one of life’s greatest losses. He turned the normally  60  business interview process into an act of caring and support for another person in a time of need.
