I was 15 years old, the age of "full moon" no longer spoiled by my parents, but still had times when I was impulsive and playful...
Time and health can never be bought. I understand that because now I am aware that time flies very quickly. The little girl from back then has now turned 15 - not old enough, not mature enough but no longer childish and naive. I am no longer spoiled by my parents like when I was a child but my parents still have to teach me every little thing.
At 15 years old, I was still peacefully in the loving arms of my father and mother every day. If I stayed up late, my mother would remind me to go to bed. If I woke up late, my father would call me right away. My parents always followed my every step and wished to see me grow up and mature every day.
At 15 years old, I was still impulsive and sometimes playful, sometimes thinking shallowly and immaturely.
At the age of 15, I knew what failure was when I joined the provincial excellent student team and could not follow it to the end of the journey.
At 15, I had my own idol. I heard my heart flutter, feeling a little fond of a Korean actor in a movie. When I saw that guy publicly announce his girlfriend, I cried secretly. Thinking back, I realized how childish I was.
At 15, I allowed myself to stumble but did not give up. Time still gave me the chance to fix it, to grow up.
At 15 years old, I need real friends. True friends will always be with me, when happy as well as sad, when successful as well as when failed. They will help me in my studies and help me overcome difficulties and challenges in life. I always cherish and silently thank my true friends.
Age 15 is the most beautiful age of youth but also the age that is very sensitive to the good and bad things that are all around. How can I learn good things to become more mature? I will live with ambition and ideals so as not to waste the most beautiful time of my life.
At 15 years old, I silently thank my parents for giving birth to me, giving me a body, health and a happy home. Although my family is not rich, it is that which makes me appreciate money, so that I always know how to try harder, so that I understand the hardships of my parents in raising me to be a grown-up and fully educated as I am today.
Soon, the 15-year-old girl that I am will have to be independent, have to leave the arms of my parents, but with what my parents have given me and what the girl that I am has experienced, I am confident and courageous to walk firmly on the path of life, even though I know that there will be many thorns.
