Lost and found At the age of ten, I took up an art courses only to be told that I was never going to get the direction of light right because I’m a left-handed. And just a week before that, my piano teacher described my right hand fingers as stiff as matchsticks. I’ve always believed that I was to be an artist since I was little as people around me kept encouraging me that I have a gift for it. And I have tried really hard to practice my right hand skills in playing piano. However, these were the third time that I've been turned down for the same reason in the past two years. My fragile self-confidence was like a house of cards caved in with the cruel denials. I was totally lost and overwhelmed by inferiority, thinking that I was born to be worse than others because I’m a lefty. I curled up in my own corner, never dared to try again, never dared to take one more step forward. I hesitated to express my ideas because I’m afraid to be scolded; I never picked up my pencils again because I’m afraid to be laugh at; every tapes on the keys was like walking on thin ice because I’m afraid to perform it wrong. Until that day I was watching The Simpsons. I was moved and inspired by their neighbor Ned who used his life savings to open a shop specialized in selling supplies for lefty like him. I realized that there’s no big difference between lefty and normal people and there’s nothing that we can’t do as long as you want to. Then followed the great news.I was given a shot to play on the school team and this time the result turn out to be rather good because I’m a lefty. I started to feel that I was back on my feet and found my self-confidence back. I truly understand that people are unique individuals and life has entitled you the right to pursue your dream that nobody can deprived of. Just follow the arrow of your heart wherever it points. That was my story of how I regain my confidence. Life is like a continuing process of lost and found. For once you thought you lost it forever, but eventually it will come back to you. What’s more, you’ve gain a great deal on the road of finding it back.
