Answer (1)
One time, I remember walking home from school under the heavy rain. I didn’t have an umbrella with me, so I had no choice but to keep going even if I was already soaked. At first, I felt annoyed because my bag and shoes were wet, and I worried my notebooks would be ruined. But as I kept walking, I noticed other people around me—some were also rushing home, while others were laughing with their friends as if the rain didn’t bother them at all. That moment made me realize that sometimes, even small things like rain can show us different ways people handle situations.From that experience, I thought of a story about a student who was always afraid of getting embarrassed in front of others. One day, while walking home, she got caught in a sudden downpour without an umbrella. She felt miserable at first, but then she saw kids dancing and playing in the rain, not caring if they were wet. That inspired her to let go of her worries. She slowly smiled, then decided to just enjoy the rain too. In the end, she discovered that sometimes you don’t have to control everything—you just have to live in the moment[tex].[/tex]
