20 minutes later, a sound of a grieved alarm will be heard through the whole country. This alrm is sound for the thousands of people who lost their lives in the "5.12 earthquake", for the countless people who lost their families, their friends, their loves, and it is also for this country--China, which suffered so much in 2008.  

     When all the surroundings are immersed in sorrow, a grateful feeling suddenly appeared in me. Am I crazy? What am I thank for?   Without any doubt, I am a Chinese, I am living the story of China, undergoing what other Chinese are going through, but fortunately, I went through all the suffers all in the most lucky way.No need to mention the earthquake that occurred in Sichuang, shared only little tiny quake to my province--Hunan, and those terrorists' attacks in Tibet are far far far away from my life, even the most widely spread power failure in China during those days of snowstorm made only one difference on my life which is turned my bio-clock totally up-side-down. When other people were stuck in the countrywide traffic chaos found no way home and lived in public transportations without food, water, air-condition and connecting tools, I was hiding in a warm hotel, or enjoying delicacies in centering city, or having fun with friends.  

       What more should I complain about? I have parents who loves each other and both love me though judge me and criticize me so much only because the lack of communication among us; I have many real friends who can share all my feelings, pick up my call at 4:00 in early morning even they are in sweet dreams though I don't have a boyfriend just because of afraid of getting hurt again; and I have a definite dream to pursue though there is still a long way to go.And, the biggest crash I ever had is just failed to get into my dream university...Should I complain about my life is too plain that doesn't have any excitement? No, I don't think so. The things that I use to hate and grumble so much virtually all can be solved by a different view of seeing my life. And now I found there is no reason for me not to love my life.   

      So I am telling myself: Love life, treasure it. Enjoy every minute and every second of it. Even when tears come down, remember feeling the pain of the heart, so I can differ what happiness is, even when in sleep, when in nightmare, be grateful to the final awaking...
