When I was in my second year in senior high school,I found a four-dollar-an-hour part-time job at Villanova Pizza.Like many of my friends,I longed to earn some pocket money from the job as well as gaining social experience.Just one week after I worked there,Stubby,the manager,called me into his office.As the saying goes, "life isn't a bed of roses".My first job ended in failure.His reason was that I showed up late twice and took more breaks than others. "Oh,I'm a loser," I thought to myself.I believed that thought was shared by my brothers,neither of whom had ever been fired,and my mother,though she would never express it in those terms.
"I am too sad to do anything," I complained to my father.
After listening to my words,he laughed.
"It's not funny;I'm a loser," I said.
"No,you're not.This is a part of growing up.You will be all right,my dear daughter," he said,patting my shoulder. "Trust me.You are good enough."
I looked into my father's eyes and I could see he really trusted me.And I believed him.Since then, "Trust me.You are good enough" are the only words I have repeated to myself.I have worked hard to be a better person and cherished every chance I have got.
Finally,I succeeded in entering a good university.After graduation I found my dream job.I couldn't wait to call my father and show my gratitude.
Look ahead when you experience something unpleasant and there is always someone around believing in you.When they believe in us,we begin to believe in ourselves,too.They tell us we are good enough over and over until we can hear it.
