A BLACK MARK

I liked this part of this story:

"All I regret is allowing something so small to corrode my insides for so long, when the future is determined not by mistakes that we all make at some time, but how we move on after they've been made."

It is so true. There are things in life that are so smallest problem but yet the biggest problem to us. I have been in situations where I thought the biggest situations was going to tear me apart but it was the smallest problem ever after realizing how it wouldn't mess me up at all. But it's funny how sometimes problems start so small and turn out to be big and then big problems become the smallest problems. I don't know why it is like that but I guess it helps us learn from being scared of things. Like this story, Joan Hyun Lee tells his story of how he got a C for AP Biology and it scared him so much he thought that he wouldn't get into college because of that one grade. It's funny how people worry about the smallest things, including me. Reading about his story made me realize that a small problem couldn't mess up my life. I'll always remember that change begins with me.
