Weekly Assignment 2

the Runner


Story:

This is a runner who never stops running. Once he was a fat boy, which made him feel inferior. His young friends teased and isolated him all the time.  He swore he would lose weight someday, so he started to run. At first, the boy could only run for 5 minutes, which made him really exhausted. Meanwhile, he felt lonely because he often ran himself. Gradually, during his running he found his sincere friends, who get up early, sleeping late, and never leave him alone. The sun is always smiling at him and the moon-washed path is always so peaceful. Today he keeps running everyday, the fat turns to become his confidence and desire for life. He never runs for losing fat any more, but for keeping himself in a good situation and healthy. Life is just like that, when one begins to fight for something and work hard, the result is always more than something. Keep running.
