My sister loves reading and writes great compositions. Of course, dad is not very lax with me. Just when I was 8 years old, my father brought me a book called "If you give me three days of light". I was very interested in the name of this book, so I happily took it and couldn't wait to open it.
So, I finished reading this book quickly. I know that Helen Keller, the heroine in the book, only has 19 months of light and sound; I learned that when she was a child, she was dissatisfied with her disability and often kicked around; I also know that she found her confidence and success in the world of no light and no words, and finally she was admitted to Harvard University's Radcliffe College successfully ... But what left me the most was pity and prayer.
"oh, my god!" When I first read it, I couldn't help screaming like this.
"what's the matter?" Mom came to ask.
"This man is so pitiful. Yes, his name is Helen Keller. When he was two years old, he lost his sight and hearing!"
But his mother shook her head and said, "But in the end, he was admitted to Harvard University! Therefore, as a healthy person, you must study hard. People like Helen Keller are people with perseverance and strong self-control! Such a person will surely be a person who can overcome fate! "
I didn't care about what my mother said, let alone think about it deliberately. I just think what happened to her is very, very unfortunate.
I often pray to Allah (Islamic faith): "Allah, please bless our whole family!" I'm afraid I'll suddenly lose my hearing like Helen Keller.
Once again, I had a fever due to a cold. Although I didn't have a bad fever, I cried and said, "I don't want to have no eyes, I don't want to have no eyes ..."

At this time, I was in the prime of my youth and gradually became mature and sensible, but I still didn't want to read famous books. I like reading some exciting novels and beautiful prose poems.
Today, I got up early and went to my desk. The sunshine in the morning is very bright. The sun shone on a full row of books. I inadvertently saw the book "If I have three days of light", which has been in the dark for four years. I couldn't help laughing when I thought about my ignorant behavior as a child. Somehow, I pulled out the book with a little hard hand. Still the same feeling as before: the blue book cover shows its profundity, which makes people feel that they can't help but want to read it. Only there is a layer of dust on it. I carefully wiped the dust off it and opened it to have a look.
but who knows, I am addicted again. I feel that the words inside are still very beautiful. So, I'm going to watch it again. I think it will be different from the previous feeling.
indeed, after reading it, I feel really different.
In the 2th century, a unique life individual shocked the world in her brave way. She-Helen Keller, a woman who lived in darkness but brought light to mankind, a woman who spent 88 spring and autumn years of her life, but survived 87 years of loneliness without light, silence and words.
However, it is such a claustrophobic person who graduated from Harvard University's Radcliffe College and spent all his life running around to build a charity for the benefit of the disabled, and was selected as one of the top ten hero idols in the 2th century by American Time Magazine.
this miracle was created by an indomitable heart. Helen accepted the challenge of life, embraced the world with love, faced difficulties with amazing perseverance, finally found the bright side of life in the dark, and finally extended her loving hands to the world.
actually, this is true love. Helen not only gave physical help to other disabled people, but also gave spiritual comfort to the whole world!
So, reading now gives me more shock and emotion!
thinking about the exciting novels that I used to love to read will only make people find a superficial excitement. Unlike masterpieces, it will give people a spiritual shock and inspire people to keep moving forward.
In fact, not only "If Give Me Three Days of Light", but also other famous works. Only by grasping with your heart can you appreciate the true meaning.
I don't hate classics anymore, I want to make friends with them!
