When I was a little girl, I always hoped to grow  up soon.  Now I begin to miss my life in the past. Because in the past, I  didn’t need to face a lot of trouble. I didn’t need to do my homework until 11 o’clock or worry about the competitions. I could even sleep until 11 o’clock at the weekends and played from morning to night. However, whether I want to or not, when I grow up, I have to face lots of pains. For example, I must cook for myself, wash my own clothes and clean my own room when my parents are not at home. I have to deal with more and more homework and exams day after day.  

 Sometimes, I can’t help thinking about what I can get from so much

homework.What can I learn from pains?  

 Of course, I can write compositions easily, I can clean the room by myself, and I can pass those exams successfully. But is this all ?

No!There is no doubt that growing means more trouble ahead of me. But why can't I look at growing in a positive way? Trouble is my friend, if I can learn from it .In a way, trouble is an opportunity. In the process of overcoming the trouble, I will grow up soon, just like Harry Potter. My father told me we wouldn't have seen the “iphone” if Steve Jobs hadn't overcome incredible difficulties  .I completely agree with my father.

As I grow,  more trouble  will come to my life. But I won’t be afraid of it any more.  I know that it can teach me more about life and I’ll try my best to defeat it. I believe no matter what trouble it is,it will make me change for better.

Thank you !
