  • I caught a cold yesterday. It became worse after I got up this morning. I haven't been sick for a whole year. And seldom catch a cold.
  • When I was young, seven or eight months old, I got diarrhea. Really serious. My parents didn’t pay much attention to my illness at the beginning; they thought I would be ok after I took some medicine. However I got worse day after day even took medicine. It was time for harvest. My parents were busy harvest wheat. One day, my mom noticed me and found I was quite dying and couldn’t eat anything but defecated blood. My mom was scared and frightened. My parents took me to hospital. And I was living there for seven days. And it rained for seven days. When we returned home, the wheat budded because my parents hurried up to send me to hospital that they just covered the wheat with plastic cloth. My whole family ate budded wheat that year. I just stood three feet away from death. Narrow escape from devil of death. I recovered well. And wasn’t ill for a few years.
  • When I was in Junior, Middle School and in High School, I got pneumonia and pleurisy three continuous summers. I had to lie down to transfuse antiphlogistic liquid for three or four hours every day during those summers. I suffered a lot and lost energy and enthusiasm to study. Lack of confidence and lose hope to live. At that time, I thought a lot about the meaning of life, and doubted why I was living, what I was living for. I was in low spirits at that time and always sighed a lot every day. Fortunately, I walked over such dreary days. And my life attitude was changed together. I became a fatalist.
  • We are changing one after day not only our looking, health but our life attitude. We can be changed a lot by life, others, society. As an individual human being, it is hard for me to change the world, but it is easier for me to change my attitude towards bad happenings. If things went bad, I suffered and didn’t feel upset, and thought the bright side of the bad happenings.
  • Now I am sick and with running nose. Maybe it is a good chance to kill virus in my body by a cold. I can’t remember when I read an article, it was said: it is better to catch a cold twice or three times a year than never catch a cold. As when we catch a cold, our immunity system starts to kill virus. If we don’t get illness for a long time, it is hard for us to conquer big illness as our immunity system became weak because it seldom works. Just like iron knives, if we don’t use them for a long time, the knife become dull. If we always use them, they seldom rust.
