When I was a junior high school student in 1980 , God gave me a gift —it was happiness. One weekend , I went to visit my grandparents in the countryside. On my way home , a car ran over me and cut off my arm because of its high speed .

Several days later when I woke up at the hospital , I realized I had to spend the rest of my life without arm. How sad and scared I felt at that time ! But slowly I knew I had to face the fact and got over it . I couldn’t get my arm back even though I cried every day . However, it`s easier said than done . It took me half a year to get out of the sadness completely.

I got so much from my past story. From then on , I could treat my life with a normal  mind. But in our daily life, I often see my classmates get serious about little things. For example, they get bad grades in the test; their bus comes late; they don’t have a mobile phone but others have . But I only enjoy life . I was lucky to realize from an accident: it is a waste of our life to focus on (关注) what you have lost . We should always think of what we have. So why are so many people unhappy? Someone may say, “My whole life would improve if I have a new car.” But when you get the car and what happens? For a whole week you are walking on air. Then you go right back to being unhappy.

Happiness depends on what we have! It’s in our heart. It’s a state of mind. Even though you own the whole world, you may still feel unhappy.
