Hi, my friend,

It's pretty nice to be a lovely friend who greets you “Good evening?." How are you today? Happy? Happier? Or the happiest? Being happy is great. Being happier is greater. Being the happiest is the best.

Right now I'd like to share you with something in my mind--Lost and Found. From my perspective, life is like a box of puzzles. Our duty in life is to find those missing pieces. On the process of completing the master piece, we will meet lots of difficulties, encounter many obstacles and face plenty of dilemmas while we are connecting and searching for those missing pieces. Life is like a box of puzzles, it can be so confusing at times, but if you try harder enough and never give up finding those missing pieces, you’ll see spectacular and amazing picture when you have completed this magic box of puzzles.

Writing right now is just like searching for my missing pieces—a trip to discover the inner child of ME piece by piece, little by little, step by step and day after day. That is a wonderful feeling of Lost and Found.

I had an experience of completing two 5000 pieces of puzzles. I struggled all the time—give it up or keep on connecting those missing and confusing pieces all the time during that summer vacation. I spent lots of precious time on those two spectacular and amazing puzzles.

What I have learned from the unforgettable experience is ---if I try harder enough and never give up in the middle of everything, I will cherish the moments of complicated emotions and enjoy whatever I am doing in the process no matter I succeed or not in the end. Do I care for the result? The answer is “Yes”. But the point is that I will accept it with tears or with a bright smile. The attitude toward the process of everything is more important than the result.

I enjoy the feelings of Lost and Found, the feelings of getting to know more about the true identity of ME, and the feelings of connecting those missing pieces in different stages of life, and the feelings of sharing with my lovely and honest friends and most important of all, the feelings of loving me more and more, day after day. Anyway, the complicated feelings are the born talents of human beings. We should learn to treasure them. Take them with me from time to time. Put them down once in a while. However, wearing a shinny and bright smile is always a must for Helen.

To admit our mistakes is giving us a chance to be wiser and more experienced. To recognize our weakness is giving us an opportunity to become stronger and turn it into our strength.

Those quotes, such as “No pain, no gain.” “No destruction, no construction.” “Forgive and forget.” are simple but meaningful. We should use them to encourage us from time to time whenever we feel disappointed and frustrated. That is because we are stronger when we have found those missing pieces in life, we are more blessed when we have found those missing pieces in life, and we are healthier and happier when we have found those missing pieces in life.

Wish us complete our missing pieces in life and treasure them well.

Helen with a content smile
