I worked in a finance        that I hated and I lived in a concrete jungle city with little greenery. I occupied my time with           relationships. I was searching for happiness and had no            where to find it.
Then I fell ill with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (慢性疲劳综合征). I had to            my job and was left with no income.           I eventually regained my physical health, not long after that I got a(n)           from my family at home saying that my father’s cancer had
       progressed. I left the city and went home to be with him, yet he died soon afterwards. My           oldest sister at that time complained of a bad back. It got so bad that she was        to hospital. They discovered that she             highly advanced cancer in her bones and that there was nothing            could do. One month later she died.
I could never put into words the            of my sister in my life. She was my soul-mate and I never thought I would journey this lifetime            her. The shock and extreme heart break brought me to my knees and I              in hospital.
I remember lying in the hospital bed, looking up at the             and seeing my sister’s beautiful face. She           with me all night long.
I            during that night that I had to make a choice. I made the decision that, I
        just live any life. I would live the life that I            LOVE and nothing less. Since then I have begun to            the most beautiful life for myself. I spend quality time with the rest of my precious family and cherish every moment I have with them. I’m making new friends with beautiful souls around the world.
