28、When writing the story of your life, don’t let someone else hold the pen. 【1】 Here are some ideas for writing a life story:
Live happily in your own way. You are not in this world to live up to the expectations of others, nor should you feel that others are here to live up to yours. What success means to each of us is totally different. Success to others may mean being a good parent. Success is only about spending your life happily in your own way.
【2】 There are thousands of possible paths up the mountain of life, so it really doesn’t matter which path you start off on. The only mistake is by wasting time running around at the base of the mountain, telling everyone that your life path is wrong.
Embrace (信奉) new ideas, lessons, and challenges. Sometimes growing up means growing apart from old habits, relationships, and situations, and finding something new that truly moves you. 【3】 You should look very clearly into the unknown and enjoy it. Because when you come in contact with things that you don’t know, that’s when you’re learning, growing, and truly living.
Live honorably through kindness. If you live honorably, no matter how old you get, you’ll never lose your beauty. 【4】
Spend quality time with people you love. 【5】 People don’t live forever. Appreciate what you have, who loves you and who cares for you. You’ll never know how much they mean until the day when they are no longer beside you. Someday you will either regret not doing so, or you will say, “I’m glad I did.”
A.Lost time is never found again.
B.Appreciate the little things in life that mean a lot.
C.Change your path when you must, but keep moving forward.
D.There is nothing more wonderful than seeing life as an adventure.
E.For others, it may mean to simply be happy or it can be all of the above.
F.And remember, there is no better thing than reaching out and holding the hand of someone in need.
G.Make wise choices every day because the way you live each day is a sentence in the story of your life.
