The Snow Globe-a Christmas miracle


Since it is Christmas, I want to introduce a novel called,” The Snow Globe.” It is a sweet and magical story happened on Christmas.

Kelly lost her job and boyfriend, thinking she was abandoned by the whole world. Susan, who was a perfectionist and workaholic, never realized what was really important in her life, taking her family for granted. Alison, who had a serious family problem, felt desperate after her grandma, who was the only consolation to her, passed away.

These three friends encountered different difficulties when Christmas was coming.

They decided to go on a holiday and encountered a magical snow globe. That was the turning points of their lives. They saw amazing image in the snow globe and came into realization! In the process of their lives changed, they gradually realized the true meaning of lives.

Merry Christmas! Today is Christmas. Wish you all have a beautiful and magical Christmas. This story happened around Christmas. It makes me feel the anything can happen on Christmas. Life itself is tough enough, so I think believing in miracle may be a great way to make our lives optimistic and hopeful.

The Ten Best Days of My Life- I am in the seventh heaven!


Have you ever thought about death? This week I want to recommend a novel called, ”The Ten Best Days of My Life.”

Alex, a confused woman in her late twenties, was hit and killed by a car. But when she woke, she found she was in the heaven! She was in the seventh heaven, where you can have anything that you have dreamed of. For example, house, clothes, foods and cars. You can always have the perfect appearance and figure without worrying you may get fat or old. The best thing is you can reunite with the people you love who have passed away.

Well goes the old saying,” There ain't no such thing as a free lunch. “Alex had to submit an assignment about her ten best days of her life to prove she had a meaningful life, or she would be sent to the fourth heaven. Frustrated by the condition, she reluctantly started to work on her assignment. As she looked back her life and fulfilled her assignment, she finally realized what was the most important in her life and she was no more confused.

Death is the most terrifying thing for human and it is inevitable. However, death is the reason why we cherish our lives so much. I won’t say that I am not afraid of death. But I’ll try my best to live my life to the fullest and always try to find what really matters in my life because my life may end some day.
