Compared with the sky,I am as little as a bird.Compared with the sea,I am just a drop.Compared with the world,I am just a grain of sand.Nevertheless,I am what I am.I am the only one.
Too many times we have forgotten what we have and concentrated on what others have.We always enlarge the talents of the others while paying little attention to our own.What’s worse,we take our special talents for granted.If only we could change our perspective by thinking about what would happen if we all appreciated what we possess!Maybe we will be surprised to find that we can do almost everything well as well as others,in reality.
It was not until I took part in a Handicraft Competition that I came to realize this.Mr.Dong,our head teacher,encouraged us to be active in the interesting activity.At first,I believe what I could make would turn out a disaster.As was well-known,there were so many talented competitors.They could turn something ordinary into something splendid by hand.It seemed like magic.
I was planning to give up when a voice came from the bottom of my heart,saying “Believe yourself!Just have a try.” It took me only a moment to make up my mind to create a special work.The next moment I drew the required design and did my best to collect everything that was needed.Without taking a break,I finished it in two days.It seemed that in those two days nothing but the work of art was in my mind.What made me so surprised was that I got the first prize.
Ever since that,I have got the true line.It goes like this:There must be a use for my talent,but I have to fight for it.
