By the Youth
When we were scared， sad and helpless，you gave us courage， warmth and hopes． When： we had to stay at home to keep away from the illness，you， workers， helped us buy living things； Leaving your children behind，you worked in the neighborhood every day，you never complained but smiled the whole day． When we needed all kinds of materials，you，drivers，drove them there without thinking twice； running on the streets， between the cites，you made sure things went well as usual． |
When we had coughs or fevers，you，__▲__，tried your best to save our lives；Looking after the patients in the hospital day and night，you never gave up until the sick got well． There are many people doing jobs in silence； There are many people giving hands without telling their names． Thanks for your hard work and selflessness… You're the heroes of the times． You′re the most beautiful in our hearts We love you!

I'm not much of a crier most of the time． But recently when I was reading a book on a plane， I started crying． Of course， it came as a big surprise when tears came up， no matter how hard I tried， I wasn't able to control myself．
Oh no， not this now． I thought to myself． But even as the thought entered my brain． I felt the first hot drop of salty water coming down my face． I put my head down， hoping that I could go on reading．
In fact， the harder I tried， the more tears pushed their way out of my eyes． You could guess how surprised the man next to me looked．
I dropped my head in shame． He must think I was crazy． May be I could turn toward him， hold up the cover of the book and say in my crying voice． "I'm sorry， sir． It's just a really good book! "But I didn't say anything． Instead， I just put my head back against the seat and let the tears run． Do you know what decision I made while I was crying？ My decision was that it was okay if he thought I was crazy． I'd rather be crazy than be the kind of person who wouldn't cry when the situation called for it， or who wouldn't let herself feel anything at all．
I've been that girl who has spent so much time trying to make sure people didn't think I was crazy． But now I don't want to be that girl any more ﹣﹣﹣that bored and sad girl． I'd rather be this girl who is able to forgive（原谅）， love and act， even if it means being disappointed or being hurt again and again．
