Confession respond # 3 : A childish trouble brought a profound lesson.

Childhood time is memorable to most people. It frequently reminds us many happy things or even bad ones. Sometimes, I thinks about my childhood and suddenly laugh at my stupid troubles. 

The trouble happened when I was in seventh grade. Some friends enticed me to not go to school on that day. We planed to go to fruit garden for a picnic for a whole day. So I lied to my mom that I went to school and came to my friend's house for doing homework after. My mom didn't have any doubt about me. I lied to her sucessfully.

In fact, I hang out with my friends to a fruit garden for a picnic. In the past, when we were children or teenagers, going to fruit garden was the most favorite activity for all of us. Everything would be fine if the owner of the fruit garden was not my mom's friend that I didn't know. It was an unlucky day for me when my mom came to her friend's house for some fresh fruit. As a result, I was caught by my mom. The most memorable thing reminds me about this phenomenon is that my mom did not yell at me any word. She said nothing about my fault and did not talk to me almost 3 days later. She looked so upset and disappointed about me. Her silence made me feel so guilty. I almost repented what I had done and lied to my mom. The I apologized her and tried to do many nice things to make her not disappointed about me any more.

This childish trouble made me understand more about my mom. It shows me how my mom always trusts in me. After that trouble, I promised myself to not lie to my mom any more.

Write the bad things that are done to you in sand, but write the good things that happen to you on a piece of marble

Some say that life is unpredictable and is not always as smooth as we think. During entire our life, we have not only a lot of relationships that we will get involved in but also many obstacles which we will face with. How can we handle all unpredictable things in our life so that we can feel peaceful? The proverb " Write the bad things that are done to you in sand, but write the good things that happen to you on a piece of marble" seems to be a good way for us to have a happy life.

This proverb is actually very meant to me. I am trying to practice it every second of my daily life. In my opinion, the proverb means that when some bad things are done to you, you should forget it forever, but you should remember for good things. For example, when your friend do some things that hurt you, you should forgive about what they have hurt you and should never remind that. Forgiveness is very powerful because it can help us to heal our hurt soul. When you give some one your sympathy, you will receive it back in the future. It is the good way to refresh and keep us peaceful. In addition, when people make good things to you, you should keep them as happy memories and take them during your entire life.

It is a meaningful proverb which I am trying to practice in my real. The good things should be kept, but the bad things should be take away.
