One day my teacher said, “ Life is a game of chess, and the other player is time.” From that moment, I knew I had to enjoy my life. Do not waste time, because, you know, time will not come back. You cannot buy it. It is one of those things in life that you must really, really value.
When you see an opportunity, take it. You might not get it back. Never let an opportunity pass. And if it is too hard, remember that in the middle of every difficulty lies an opportunity.
Remember, you cannot choose how you' re going to die, or when. You can only decide how you' re going to live. Study as if you were going to live forever; live as if you were going to die tomorrow. Don' t just think of the present, but also think of your future. Your future is yet another chapter in your life and another way to live it.
Every single living thing has a purpose in life. "The purpose of life is a life of purpose," said Robert Byme.   
Learn to use time wisely, take opportunities, and enjoy life. We can discover the meaning of life in three different ways: (1) by doing a deed;  (2) by experiencing a value;  (3) by suffering life. So, what are you buying with yours?

Love Is Just a Thread

Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the  ? 36 ? tuition for my brother and me. They don't ? 37 ? in the romantic ways that I read in books or  I see on TV. My father has a bad temper; it's easy for him to lose his temper.?

One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I ? 38 ? sat down beside her and looked at her.

“Is there any ? 39 ? between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice.

My mother stopped her work and raised her head with ? 40 ? in her eyes. She didn't answer immediately. Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt.

? 41 ? at last I heard my mother say the following words:?

“Susan,” she said ? 42 ?.“Look at this thread. Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable(耐用的).If life is a

? 43 ?,then love should be a thread. It can ? 44 ? be seen anywhere or ?anytime, but it's really there. Love is ? 45 ?.”?

I listened carefully but I couldn't understand her until the next ? 46 ?.At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. After they were ? 47 ?,every day in the morning and dusk(黄昏),my mother helped my father walk ? 48 ? on the country road. My father had never been so ? 49 ?.Along the country road, there were many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees. The sun gently shone through the leaves. All of these ? 50 ? the most beautiful picture in the world. The doctor had said my father would ? 51 ? in two months. But after two months he still couldn't walk alone. We were all worried.?

“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.?

“Susan,”he said gently.“To tell you the truth, I just like ? 52 ? with your mom. I like this kind of life.” ? 53 ? from his eyes, I knew he loved my mother deeply.

Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this ? 54 ?,I understand that love is just a ? 55 ? in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.

Five years ago, I was sent to a better middle school. For me, everything there was new and strange. After I had been there for two months, there was an important test in the middle of the term. It covered all my courses. In that test, I didn’t get a good grade, but most of my classmates got an A or A’.

   It made me upset for a long time. I felt everything in the world was changing. I thought my classmates were all better than me. During those days I was very unhappy.

   One day, my aunt, after talking with my teachers, talked to me. She told me to think about what I had done in the past and what I should do in the future. I was shocked by her words. I thought about what I had done during the past months, and I found I had done nothing to improve my grades. I thought I should work harder.

    After that, I paid more attention to the teachers’ talking in the classes, and I asked my teachers or my classmates when I didn’t understand something. I studied very late at night when I met with difficult problems. Most of all, I came to understand the importance of taking notes in class. As a result, I did better in some tests.

    About three months later, the most important test came at the end of the term. This time, I stood out not only in my class but also in the grade. From then on, I have tried to do my best when I do something because I know if I want something, I should work hard for it.
