There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. In fact, she 1 nobody except her boyfriend, for he was always 2 to help her. She used to tell her boyfriend,“If I could see the 3, I would marry you.”
One day, someone donated (捐赠) a pair of 4 to her. When the bandages (绷带) came off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend, for the 5time. He asked her, "Now that you can see the world, will you 6 me?" The girl looked at her boyfriend and was greatly surprised to see that he was 7. She had never expected that. She would not like to be with a blind husband for the rest of her life, so she 8to marry him.
Her boyfriend left in tears and a few days later wrote a 9 to her, saying, "My dear, take good care of your eyes. 10 they are yours. They were mine."
This is how the human brain (人脑) often works when our status (地位) changes. Only a very few remember what 11 was like before. And we often ask for more than we need. Life is a gift. Today, before you complain about the 12 of your food, think of someone who has nothing to 13. Before you complain about life, think of someone who went to heaven (天堂) too early. Before you complain about your old 14, think of the people who are living in the streets. And when you are tired and complain about your job, think of those who have no jobs. So 15 what you have and don't forget your past.
