When I was a junior high school student in 1980, God gave me a gift, it was happiness.
One weekend, I went to visit my grandparents in the countryside. On my way home a car ran over me and cut off my because of its high speed.
Several days later when I woke up at the hospital, I realized I had to spend the rest of my life arms. How sad I felt at that time! Even I was full of fears. slowly I knew I had to face the fact and got over it. I couldn’t get my arms back even though I every day.
However, it’s easier than done. It took me nearly half a year to get out of the sadness . I got so much from my past story. From then on, I could treat my life with a mind. But in our daily life, I often see my classmates about little things: They get a bad grade on a test; their bus comes ; they don’t have a mobile phone but have, and so on. But I only life. I was lucky to realize from an accident : It is a waste of our life to focus on what you have . We should always think of what we have. So why are so many people unhappy? Someone may say, “My whole life would improve I have a new car.” But when you get the car and what ? For a whole week you are walking on air. Then you go right back to being unhappy.
Happiness depends on what we have! It’s in our heart. It’s a state of mind, even though you own the whole world, you may still feel .Happiness comes from mastering the art of appreciating(感激) and taking pleasure in what you really have.

Luke says, “At first I was shocked that somebody would do such a thing, but then I saw Jenifer’s and knew that I had to do something. I jumped up and started chasing him down the street and calling‘Thief, stop !’but nobody seemed in stopping him. They were too busy staring, like it was a or something. Luckily, I play soccer for the school team, so I’ve been training all year and I’m in pretty good shape, so I to catch up with him on Third Avenue and knocked him down. Once he was on the I sat on top of him and waited for the police to come. I know that people say you shouldn’t do that kind of thing, you never know what the person can do to you, but I didn’t think about that at the time. I was too ”
However, Jennifer is not the only one who’s grateful for Luke’s bravery. After police had arrested(送签捕) the thief, they his apartment and found over a hundred stolen cell phones and, perhaps more , an address book full of names of various criminal contacts(犯罪联络), most of whom have now been brought in for as police try to break a growing ring of cell phone criminals.
Cell phone theft(盗窃)is only one of a number of technology – related crimes that police say are on the rise. Businesspeople have been told to be extra with their notebook computers, which are an easy target(目标) for criminals, and new police apartments are being set up to crimes. In the last week alone, the New York Police Department has over six hundred calls from people relating to one of the above crimes.
Thanks to Luke’s bravery and quick thinking, Jennifer didn’t one of those victims (受害者) , and she knows she’s going to thank Luke - by taking him for another meal at the same Indian restaurant. This time, however, she’s going to keep her cell phone in her purse.
