26A – Celebrating Failure

The word "failure" seems too far away for me. But sometimes it's right next to me.

One day, I want to cook a Chinese dish by myself. It's called scrambled egg with tomato. My mother used to cook for me when I was young. I learned from my mother's appearance. First, I took out two red tomatoes, wash them and cut them into small pieces on the plate. Then I took out two eggs from the refrigerator and knocked them on the edge of the bowl. Then I broke the eggs. I put a little salt and monosodium glutamate in the bowl and stir with chopsticks for 2-3 minutes. Then, I set up the pot and turn on the gas stove. I stir the egg carefully into the pot. After a while, I put the tomatoes into the pot. At that moment, I suddenly smelled something terrible, like something is burning. I looked, the egg is burnt, I quickly turned down the fire. Finally, a pot of burnt flavor tomato scrambled eggs well, look at the pot of tomatoes, I feel very failure.

Life can't be plain sailing. There are always frustrations and setbacks. We have to learn from the failure, enhance courage. In this way, failure is a kind of wealth, which cannot be measured by money.

I learned many celebrities biography this semester. I am aware of how their lives changes and how they made through it. I am encouraged by them. My own failure is nothing compared to theirs. Keep thinking positive is my key to handle the failures.
