话题延伸

I am the kind of girl that are very forgettable, for I almost lost at least one stuff each time I go out. From umbrella to bottle, every stuff you can imagine, I have lost. But that doesn't matter, the more serious thing is that I even lost myself and I hardly found it.

The story dated from three years ago. At that time, I was still in India for a volunteering program alone, and my boyfriend broke up with me. Although I flew back to our city immediately, the result didn't change. I was so painful that I must stay with my friends all the time. However, my negative feeling is too strong to make my friends bear it, so my closest friend kept some distance to me as well. I couldn't help doubting myself that I was not worth of being loved." Who am I?" It is the question that I asked myself most frequently, and I even doubted everything that I did. Sometimes when I looked at the mirror, I wanted to tear the face in the mirror, how detestable she is! 

But as the old saying goes, when god closes a door, he opens a window. A boy showed up and was willing to accompany to me. He cooked for me, took me out to relax and told me it's not my fault. His appearance was like a light to the darkness. Gradually, my heart went much more peaceful, I stepped out the darkest time. I took my two more years to put myself together, and I am much stronger now. I finally found myself, and it proves that a blessing is always in disguise. Now, I don't want to show my gratitude to that kind of dark time, but I should be grateful to all the people that helped me and accompanied to me ever since.
