Life is made of moments
by Macarena Peralta
FCE student at True English Institute

There are some special moments in a person's life that will leave an everlasting impression throughout the following generations, being remembered as parts of interesting stories. Those situations can be the consequence of extremely strong emotions, such as happiness, sadness, or regrets. Life is made of little things, details that cannot be left aside- good or bad, beautiful or awful, sad or great-, but all of them being part of a complete and fully important period. Therefore, it would be very difficult for me to choose just one memory to tell my children as none deserves to be missed out.

On the one hand, in order of importance: spending time with friends, just laughing at silly things, or hanging around the whole weekend, sitting in the sun, watching the sky, being in love, feeling my heartbeat while receiving a red rose.

On the other hand, we also have those days in which you just want to cry and you feel lonely with your heart full of sorrow and sadness. The only way of recovering from these dreadful situations is to have in mind that this suffering will fade away after a while. There isn't any pain that cannot heal beneath the wings of time.

As a result, it is impossible to choose the most important moment of my life because I see life as a challenge, with its good and bad moments, a game which is joyful only when we understand that things take place because of a special reason. Having the courage to play this game will make the difference between the ones who will succeed and the ones who won't.
