A lot of our dark moments are times when we
sink into something out of our control.
I was accepted in a company that I had been
willing to join in 2005. It was the happiest day
of my life but then, things turned out to be
incredibly harsh. On the very first day, I got into
a bad car accident on the way to the office. I was
hospitalized for 3 months and the company
couldn't push through my career with them
since I haven't even started. The worst part is
that it took me one more year to find another
job after the accident.

I am fond of pets. I have a pet dog. I call it Mimi.
She is two years old. She runs at an incredible
speed though she has very short legs. When I
had depression after losing my sister, Mimi was
the one who made me smile again. Mimi's
presence adds meaning to my life. It has not
only given me a friend to be cared by and to
care for, but also has made me a more
responsible and mature individual. But I know
that a dog's life span is very short, so very soon
it would have to leave me .Yet I keep praying to
let it be with me forever.
