Shengliver’s Note: High school is no easy time for Miss He Huali. Luckily love around her makes things a bit easier.

 

In my life, from time to time, something moves me. There is such a case where I feel upset or lonely. At a moment like this, a word, a smile, an umbrella reached over my head, or a tasty snack from a friend or a family member makes me feel a bit sunnier inside.

 

Every night when I stay up doing my homework late into the small hours, my mother will bring me a glass of milk and remind me to go to bed. Just a word, and I feel much warmer in my heart.

 

When I was upset about my grades the other day, I thought that the entire world was cloaked in darkness. My friend Mary said gently, “If you want to cry, cry on my shoulder. I can lend you my shoulder.” Hearing the words, I felt my eyes welling up.

 

I think I am lucky. When I am in trouble, guys around me always encourage me and buoy me up, which never fails to make me feel stronger and more confident.
