Sometimes I am not satisfied with my life, and I often compare myself to people whom I think are more fortunate than me. However; a year ago, I came across a story that somehow changed my point of view about life. It was an extremely hot afternoon, and I was on my daily bus from my school to home. I chose a familiar spot which was next to the window, because I often do not care what is going on around me. However; when the car stopped to pick up more passengers, I could not drown in my own world anymore. Among new arrivals was a grandmother who carrying a small child. It would be just an ordinary sight for me if I did not see that four or five – year – old child did not have both of her arms. She used her legs to move her body to sit on the bus seat without her grandma’s help. After finding the seat, she again used only her legs to hold a lollipop and enjoy it, and it made me feel so admirable. Sitting next to her, her grandmother just quietly stroked her hair and cooling her with a paper fan. vfo.vn Since I always complain about things around me without knowing that I am a lot luckier than many people out there, the image of the child on the bus really made me feel ashamed about myself. She was unfortunate to have such disadvantages on her body, but she was so cheerful to be alive. Her smile and effort will always be a memorable milestone to motivate me when I have difficulties in life.

Yesterday on my way back home from school, I had witnessed a car accident that gave me a lot of feelings. I was riding my bike on the daily road that led to my house, and suddenly a car came out of nowhere and crashed right at one of the street light. The road was empty at that moment because it was in the afternoon and people were in their room to avoid the heat, so it can be said that I was the only one to witness that scene. It seemed that there was a little child in the car, and I immediately rush to see if the people inside were alright. The mother was in shocked that she went all pale and did not know what to do while her baby was crying out loud. I knocked on the car windshield to wake her up, and then I realized that her forehead was bleeding. She unlocked the doors with a shake in her hands, and she turned over to check if her baby was fine. I took him out of the car, but his cry was even louder that I thought there must be something wrong with him. It turned out that his left arm might be broken because I could see a big bruise and it was starting to swollen. People began to gathered, and I called out for help while the mother was hugging her baby. One of the residents took out his car and offered to ride them to the hospital while some others called the police. Before that woman left, she did not forget to say thank you many times, and she told me to left my contact in her car so she could thank me more afterwards. I did not leave any of my information, but I read on the news the next day that she and her baby were safe. It was such a thrilling experience for me, and I am glad that I was able to help somebody who was in need.
