Many people have great difficulty in saying goodbye. But from goodbye moments, we can always learn something.

Once, I overheard (無意中聽到) a father and daughter in their goodbye moment. The father said, “I love you, I wish you enough/” The daughter answered, “Daddy, our life together has been more than enough. Your lover is all that I need. I wish you enough, too, Daddy.”

They kissed and she left …

The father walked over towards me. I could see he wanted and needed a cry. He came over to me and asked, “Did you ever say a forever goodbye to someone?” Before I could answer, he went on, “ I am old and she lives much too far away. I know her next trip back would be for my funeral (葬禮).”

“When you were saying goodbye I heard you say, ‘I wish you enough.’ May I ask what that means?”

He began to smile, “It’s a wish that has come down from my great-great-grandparents. And my parents used to say it to me.”

He stopped for a moment and looked up as if trying to remember it. He smiled even more.

“When we said ‘I wish you enough,’ we were wanting the other person to have a life full of enough good things.”

Then, turning towards me, he shared (分享) the following “wish” from his heart.

I wish you enough sun to keep you brigh.

I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more.

I wish you enough happiness to keep you alive.

I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger.

I wish enough hellos to get you through the final goodbye.

My friends, I wish you enough.

The police find most criminals (罪犯) because somebody tells them who the criminals are．They find other criminals by using science and their computers．When there is a bank robbery (搶劫), the police first look through their computers for the names of the bank robbers that they know about．Then they go and talk to any of these robbers who are not in prison (監(jiān)獄)．They ask them where they were when the robbery happened．If any of these people cannot give a good answer, the police will often use science to find out if one of them is the robber.

    Many criminals leave something of themselves at the places of the crimes like a fingerprint or a hair．Or they take something away on their shoes or clothes, like dirt or animal hair．If they leave behind some of their blood or their hair or a piece of skin, it will have their DNA inside it.

Everyone’s DNA is different and their fingerprints are also different．So, if a criminal cuts himself during a robbery or leaves his hair, or even a small piece of skin, scientists can find out what his DNA is．The police can then ask the person they think is the robber to give them his hair or some blood and see if it has the same DNA．Many criminals are in prison today because of this kind of evidences .
