In that autumn season, I was mired in life. The weight of work is like an invisible mountain, suffocating me; The trivialities of life are like a mess. In a corner of this bustling city, an ordinary software engineer works with ** day after day, as if there is no other color in my world except for these cold characters. I'm even beginning to wonder if my world is just the same.
However, fate will always bring you unexpected twists. Just when I was about to give up struggling, it was an injured stray cat that broke into my life. When I got home from work that day, I found an injured kitten next to the garbage can in the community, its left leg seemed to be injured, and it was curled up in a corner alone, its eyes full of fear and helplessness. I instinctively wanted to get around, after all, I didn't know anything about pets, let alone an injured stray cat. But those eyes seemed to be calling for help and stopped me in my tracks. After some struggle, I decided to take it home.
Its appearance did not immediately bring me warm sunshine, but seemed to add a bit of challenge to the already messy life. Its cries have disturbed my dreams, its naughtiness has disrupted the order of my life, and it has even left its little plum blossom "imprint" on my most important documents, which I have also named "Diandian".
I began to question, was this decision the right one? Am I ready to take on the responsibilities of another life? However, just when I was about to give up, a sudden crisis made me re-examine my decision. It was a night of lightning and thunder, and I worked overtime until late at night and did not return. Suddenly, I received a ** from the security guard of the community, saying that there was smoke coming out of my house. I was so anxious and worried that I immediately rushed home. When I rushed into the house, I found that the kitchen wires had started a fire, and Diandian, in the midst of this chaos, kept knocking on the neighbor's door, and used its shrill cry to arouse the neighbor's attention, and let the security guard notify me in time.
Thankfully, there was no catastrophe, and the smell of smoke in the air left me with mixed feelings. Looking at Diandian, this little life I wanted to give up, its eyes seemed to be full of concern and fear. It dawned on me that it had become a part of my life, and yes, it was my family. At that moment, I felt warmth and responsibility that I had never felt before.
Since then, I've started to take care of a little bit more attentively, and my life has become more colorful because of it. In addition to my busy work, I have learned to find the joy of life and to care for and love a small life. Diandian also gives me support and companionship in its own way, and every little action makes me feel extremely warm and happy.
However, life is always full of uncertainties. Just when I thought everything was going in a good direction, my career was hit again - the economy was down, the company went bankrupt, and I didn't find a suitable job for most of the year, this time I felt hopeless and helpless like never before, as if the whole world was going against me.
But it was at this time that the dots showed their incredible power. Even though it's just a cat, it gives me comfort and support in its own unique way. Whenever I was depressed and lost, it would always jump on my lap and rub its head against me, and those emotional eyes seemed to say, "Don't give up, we can get through it together." ”
I was touched by this wordless support from Diandian. I started to pick myself up again and actively look for new job opportunities. After months of hard work, I finally found a new job and my life gradually got back on track. I began to realize that no matter how many challenges and difficulties life brought me, as long as there was love and hope in my heart, there was nothing that I could not overcome.
