Last year, things didn’t go well to me. Like many people during the pandemic, my husband Paul, lost his job. I was working, but only part-time. I was worried about money, COVID and our future. That’s when our mailboxes really started getting to me.

I’d never liked our mailboxes much, which was already in rough shape and stood at the end of our long driveway with the paint faded and the metal pole rusted (生锈).

One day, someone had driven into the pole, which was now bent slightly. However, because the boxes could still hold the mails and the postman wasn’t complaining, there was no need to replace them. But every time I saw them lately, they reminded me of all the problems in my life.

“Lord, I wish we had better mailboxes,” I found myself thinking one day on my way to work. It was more of a passing thought than a prayer. I probably would have forgotten all about it if it were not for the news we got the next morning.

“Our neighbor just sent a message,” Paul said. “A girl drove her car right into the mailboxes, completely breaking them down.”

“Is she okay?” I asked.

“She wasn’t hurt, but really upset. Shihiem saw it happen. He said she’s just a teenager. He gave her our number and information.”

“That certainly wasn’t in the budget,” I thought. As much as I wanted new mailboxes, getting them would be expensive.

I glanced out of the window. There was an unfamiliar car at the end of the driveway. It was too far away to see what the driver was doing. Surprisingly, about two hours later I found on the spot where rusted mailboxes had once stood was a solid, white post with new, shiny mailbox sitting on each arm—one black, one white. Paul handed me a note.

“Dear Neighbor, I am so, so sorry I hit y’all’s mailbox. I bought and replaced them with new pretty ones. Again, I am so sorry. Have a wonderful, blessed day!”

The writer had included her phone number and address in case we needed anything else.

On my first day of high school, I woke up very early. I would begin my journey of high school. Thousands of thoughts rushed through my mind. “Will I fit in? Will I make friends? Will I have nice teachers? Will I be badly treated?” I thought. However, my mum told me that I would be fine if I followed the school rules and did what I was asked to. Then I put on my uniform and smiled, hoping for the best.

At the school hall, I could feel the tension (紧张气氛) in the air. Then I knew I was not the only one feeling this way. Then all the new students had a tour of the school. I just hoped that I could remember all when I needed to. Then we headed for our classrooms to meet our fellow classmates. I was happy with my classmates as no one kid in my class was rude to others. As the lunch bell rang, many students were running and shouting everywhere. Some even rushed to the shops outside the school. I just went and sat down with my friends. We talked about our holidays in the past summer and about what our first lessons of high school were like. Our teachers weren’t strict at all. They were friendly and nice. I don’t know why I was scared at first. High school may seem to be scary, but it’s just like our primary school.

My first day of high school taught me that I shouldn’t be so quick to judge (判断) something that I haven’t even tried. High school was not bad as I had thought before. I love high school now. And I hope your first day of high school will be one of your best days in your life too.

Then the landlord began to examine the house. He and she were going to divorce, so it was obvious that they would not continue renting the house any more. Then the landlord began examining the house. After looking around, the landlord screamed, “The walls are full of nails! How could I rent the house to others?”

He said, “The room is too small, so we could only hang things on the walls.” The landlord didn’t listen to him and turned around up to the floor. She began looking around her familiar room. Four years ago, she became his bride here. There were several nails on the wall, on which hung his clothes yesterday. After he lived in the room, he removed all the clothes boxes and bought her a desk in the spared room because he knew she loved writing and drawing.

The landlord took toolkit down and tried to pull the nails out. After the nails were removed, the walls were left with numerous holes.

We will continue renting the house and will only move away after we buy our own!” He looked at her with great surprise and then turned around, tearing over his face.

She finally came to understand that marriage was like wall and that all quarrels and “cold wars” were like the nails on the wall. When all the nails were removed, only a wall with numerous holes would be left. But if all the nails were still in their own places, the wall was still complete and reliable. But in the past, what she saw was only those nails.

They hung all the things back to the wall. He asked her, "Are you really willing to lead a tough life with me? " She patted away the ashes on hands and looked at those things satisfactorily, saying, "Yes! For me, it's not a suffering to live. "
