Life is like the four seasons
When I was young, it was the spring of my life. I was born and played a lot.
41 So, I enjoyed my school life. There were happy days and sad days. Sometimes, the sun shone brightly, while sometimes it didn't.
In my twenties, I had a good job. I was strong and happy. Then I married and had a child. In those days, I didn't have much time to think or to play.
42 I started to get some white hair. The summer of my life passed quickly.
Then the days got shorter. Leaves fell from the trees. My child became a university student and then an English teacher. My home was much quieter. I started walking more slowly. One day I stopped working. I retired(退休).
43 It's a beautiful time when the trees change colours and give us delicious fruits.
But the days kept getting shorter and colder. Then winter comes. I am older and weaker. I know I don't have many days left.
44I don't judge my life by one season. I try to enjoy the hope of spring, the exciting moments of summer, and the harvest of autumn. The season after autumn is cold and long.
45 With a lot of beautiful memories and stories, I am proud of my life.
