Hold your head up high

I was 15 months old, a happy carefree kid, until the day I fell. It was a bad fall. I landed on a piece of glass that cut my eye badly. From then on, so my injured sightless, cloudy gray eye lived on with me. Sometimes people asked me embarrassing questions. When kids played games, I was　 always the “monster”. I grew up imagining that everyone looked down on me.

Yet Mom would say to me, “Hold your head up high and face the world.” I began to rely on that saying. As a child, I thought mum meant, “Be careful or you will fall down or bump into something because you are not looking.”

As a teenager, I usually looked down to hide my shame. But I found that when I held my head up high, people liked me.

In high school I even became the class president, but on the inside I still felt like a monster.

All I really wanted was to look like everyone else. When things got really bad, I would cry to my mom and

she would look at me with loving eyes and say, “Hold your head up high and face the world. Let them see the　 beauty that is inside instead of your appearance.”

My mom’s love was the spark that gave me confidence. I had faced hardships, and learned not only to appreciate myself but to have deep compassion (同情) for others.

“Hold your head up high” has been heard many times in my home. I say it to my children. The gift my

Mom gave me lives on.

When I was eleven years old， God gave me a gift of happiness and I had a carefree childhood in France.
One day， on my way home from school， a truck ran over me and my legs were cut off. As I lay there bleeding， I suddenly realized that I might have to live the rest of my life without legs. How depressed I was at that moment! But then I realized that depression won’t get my legs back. So I decided not to waste my life feeling depressed. When my parents arrived at the hospital， they stood there quietly， looked so shocked and sad. I told them， “I’ve already accepted the fact. Now you also have to get used to this.”
Ever since then， I often see my friends getting worried about little things： The buses comes late； they get bad grades on the tests and so on. But I just enjoy life.
I was lucky to realize that it is a waste of energy to pay attention to what you have lost， and that the key to happiness is to take pleasure in what you have. Sounds simple， doesn’t it? So why are many people unhappy?
People often think happiness is based on what they achieve. “My whole life would improve if I had a new car.” But when they get the car and what happens? For a whole week they are walking on air. Then they go right back to be unhappy.
Happiness is not a happening； it’s a state of mind. Even though you have the whole world and you’ll still be unsatisfied. And you have relatively(相对地)little but feel full of joy. Happiness comes from mastering the art of enjoying and taking pleasure in what you already have.

A. don’t want to achieve more for future.
B. pay so much and get so little.
C. always compare with others
D. pay so much attention to what they have lost.
4.In paragraph 5， when the man gets the car he had expected， _____________.
A. he will choose to walk on foot for a week.
B. the car will bring a lasting happiness to him.
C. he will find the car is no help for him at all.

When I was 15 months old, I had a bad fall. I landed on a glass rabbit and it cut my eye badly enough to blind it. The doctor said if the eye was taken out, my face would become out of shape, so my scarred (有疤痕的), blind and grey eyes lived on with me.

Not all people were friendly to me. Some asked uncomfortable questions about my eye or even played jokes on me. When the kids played games, I was always the “bad guy”. I grew up imagining (想象) that everyone looked down on me.

Yet every time Mum noticed I was unhappy, she would say to me, “The world inside you is always colourful. Hold your head up high and face the world.” It helped me move on in life.

As a teenager, I always looked down to hide my shame(羞愧), but I found that people liked me when I held my head up high. In high school I was even made monitor, but outside I still felt like a freak(怪物). All I really wanted was to look like other people. When things got really bad, I would cry to my mum and she would look at me with loving eyes and say, “Hold your head up high and face the world. Let them see the love that is inside.” Mum’s love and encouragement gave me the confidence to remove my own doubt (怀疑). Finally I was able to face everything bravely. I learned not only to appreciate (欣赏) myself but to have love for others.

“Hold your head up high” has been heard many times in my home. Each of my children has felt its power. It lives on with my children.
