Challenges of life are of great important in our growth. It reminds me of my days which I joined in the military training after I entered senior high school. It was the first time I have lived away from my home, so I found difficult to fit in. And the training officer was strict on me. I once thought I couldn’t stick to the end. But final, I made it. The training made it much easy for me to adapt to my future life. And the difficulties I came across have now became a precious memory in my life.
In a short, it’s better to learning to regard the challenges of life as the stepping stone to future success and make the best of them.
Maria, a 91-year-old woman, has an unbelievable experience last week. A group of thief broke into her house but took nothing away with themselves. Maria remembered that the windows were broken and all her boxes were opened, and nothing was missing. Instead, she found a handwritten note that was said that “This is to help you get by.” Besides a note there was some money. It seemed that the thieves realized how poor Maria lived and decided not to take something - but to help. One policeman who has been working for 40 years was surprising by this event too. Later Maria framed the note receiving from her friendly thieves and used the money buy sweets for her great grandchildren.

One rain day while I was walking home with one of my friend, a truck came to a stop beside me. The driver wound the window down and offered us a umbrella because he found we were wet through. I stood there and couldn’t believe in that a complete stranger is so thoughtful. The man insisted, so I grateful accepted the offer, thanked him and watched the truck disappear down the road. This man might need the umbrella himself, and he preferred to give it to everyone else. It was a lesson to us that it was possible give without expect anything in return.

Last week, I visited the Beach Park with two of my friend, Tom and Jack. I learned a lot about starfish, which name comes from their shape. As a matter of the fact, they're not fish, though they started their lives in water pools by the seashore. They can take care themselves even when they are young. Young starfish know what to eat. Some starfish can later live deeply in the sea, though they can't swim. They move by use their legs and feet. The starfish has no head and tail, and just has five legs. If a leg fall off, it will grow right back. The amazed starfish has now become my favorite animal.
Two weeks before my wife's birthday, I telephone some of her friends from university and requested that they send the video, wishing her a "Happy Birthday". I asked them to tell the pleasant memories they had during his university days. I received seven videos from the friends she had not been in touch for eight years! Many of them described fun memory from university and talked about that how much they missed those times. Before I showed the videos to my wife on her birthday, she could not stop smile. She was very happy but I saw tears of happiness in her eyes. A simple action made her birthday specially by connecting her to old friends.
On a cold winter afternoon, I bought some vegetable and fruit at a shop. The man in front of me was paying the bill and found that he didn’t have enough money. The cashier asked him return some of the selected items. The man tried to persuade the cashier that he would pay the bill late. But the cashier couldn’t help with him. It seemed that he had to give up that he wanted. I took out 20 yuan. He hesitated to take them away from a stranger. I gave him a sweetly smile and said, “Come on. This is how it’s spread around the world.” He accepted my offer and give me another smile. Out of a shop, the weather was very cold, and my heart was warm.
One day, I was studying at home while I heard a loud noise. I went out to see what had happened. What I saw made me scaring. A building was on the fire. Some people were using water put out the fire. A few people jumped out of the window. Besides, those which were still on the second floor were crying for help. The people outside don’t know how to help them. Firefighters arrived at last and we fought the fire bravely. Then the people inside was taken out. They were serious injured and were taken to the hospital at once.
Thanks to the firefighters, the people were saved and the fire was put out at the end.
Patience is of great important in our daily life. Once I waited for a bus come at a stop.30 minutes passed，but no bus came. Both upset and annoyed，I decided to walk on feet. But no sooner had I left when the bus arrived. I thought if I had waited for one more minute，I would have caught it. If I chose to take a next bus，I would have to wait for other 30 minutes. Only then do I realize my problem. Being impatient will possible waste all the effort that we have put it in. Now whenever I am close to lose my patience，I'll think of this experience.
