It was my primary school reunion party; I was surprised when someone was pushing Cindy in a wheelchair. The face still looks the same ten years ago, just this pair of legs ...
After the dinner, I went to Cindy and chatted for a while, and understand what happened to her these few years.
After graduating from college, Cindy works as an accountant in a company, her husband is a bus driver, originally living a stable life. One noon, she was in a hurry and ride on a female colleague's bike.
That day was raining heavily; she sat behind her colleague, she propped up the umbrella and stretched forward, want to block some rain on the colleague. A gust of wind, the umbrella suddenly blocked the vision of her colleague, before she can react, she has been heavily thrown out, and then, fainted with a sharp pain.
When she awoke, she lay in the white ward; her legs were amputated. That day, before the umbrella blocked the colleague’s vision, to avoid an incoming truck, she hit the brake hurriedly, and because of the rain, the road becomes slippery, and the bike flipped. When Cindy was thrown off of the bike, the truck unable to brake in time and rolled over her legs.
In the next few years, without a job, and spend a lot of money on treatment, her husband who love to laugh also become reticent, the warm family turned into the cold ashes.
Cindy was a tough girl; she could not accept such a change, often cry alone. In those years, she would not say a word in a day or be rude and angry unconditionally. She often regrets that if that day she did not take the bike, everything will not happen, life is still the same. But now, everything is ruined.

Because she was trapped in such chagrin, she didn’t take care of her son, her son after high school, gradually infected with some vices: truancy, vandalism, smoking.
She becomes more desperate, and often cried bitterly, "Why am my life so bad, gave birth to a child who was so disappointing?"
One day, her son's teacher visit her, Cindy waiting for the teacher full of shame and keep saying sorry. However, the teacher said that her son's grades are still moderate, is just he is not concentrating in class. But her son's nature is kind, even if he is hungry, he will not eat breakfast and donated the money he saved to the classmate who suffers leukemia. There is one time, he fainted in the class, when he woke up, he begged the teacher not to inform his parents, because he did not want his mother worried about him. The teacher's words made Cindy shocked.
After the teacher left, Cindy sat in the wheelchair and cried for the whole morning. Thinking of herself only complaining about her son and blaming her son, but what role does she, the mother have for her child? Frustrated every day, complain that the child is not positive enough. Obviously is she who neglects the child, but blames the child for being farther away from her.
After that visit, she decided to cheer up. She agreed with her son, help improve his results, and then she will continue study accounting business, together make the home warm again.
The next few days, she picked up the phone, call the companies around her place one by one, and asked whether they need an accountant. Later, she worked as an accountant at home for several private businesses, and she became obsessed with the violin when she was free. Her son also admitted to the university, the house filled with laughter, the warm family slowly coming back.
Cindy regrets and says, her full depression for two years, almost delayed her son, luckily, she wakes up not too late. You see, the same experience, the same situation, in a different mood, face with another attitude, the results will be completely different.
Long life on the road, who never fall before? Some people fall out of love, some people bankrupt, some people got sick, some people make mistakes, these make us has a serious fall.

Everyone will encounter setbacks; the difference is that some people are powerless to extricate themselves from the deep pit, hiding inside blindly self-pitying and complaining; some people quickly climbed back up, even with pain, still continue to travel, walk on the enlightened.
Some people say that life is the process of constantly falling down and climbing back up. The difference between the strong and the weak is that the unfortunate hit is for the weak, the strong will climb up and continue to move toward to the higher goal.
A famous painter once said: "When you meet any difficulties to move forward, do not appreciate the pit that let you fall."
The past cannot be changed, and there is hope in the future, you have to do is to timely stop, not to let what has happened to drag yourself down.
If a person is in pain for a long time, the pain will grow more and more. Happiness can flourish, and pain can be extended. It's really not scary to fall; it's scary not to get back up. What destroys a person is often not an unfortunate experience, but a pessimistic attitude toward misfortune.
So remember, it doesn't matter if you fall, it's important to get up quickly.
