Free to be yourself
When a fat woman took the seat beside me on the plane,I felt uncomfortable. She had to make herself lower slowly,pushing her heavy body into the small space.
"My name is Kelly. I'm Canadian. are you from? " She waved her hand quickly in front of my face. "China," I said as I (shake) her hand unwillingly(不情愿). When the drinks and meals (serve) by the air hostess,she made sure that I had enough room in my seat.
"I don't want (make) you uncomfortable with my elephant size!" she said truly. As we talked,I was surprised by her wise (word). She had read so many books. I think she was really knowledgeable lady.
I asked her if she ever thought about (lose) some weight. "Aren't you worried the illnesses that come with being overweight(超重)? " "Not at all. I eat (healthy) and walk regularly(定期,经常). " she said. "I believe,in my heart,the people who get ill are the ones who worry. So you are free to be yourself. "
I suddenly realized that Kelly was (beautiful) and cleverest woman I had ever met in my life. I always remember her words, "You're free only if you're comfortable with who you are!"
