"I was on my way to school when I was distracted by a hedgehog running around in the bushes next to me.
Then an oversized branch landed in front of me, and if it hadn't slowed me down, I guess I would have been killed on the spot!
The next day I also took a dead cockroach to see the hedgehog, and after it was accepted, it immediately ran away~
"When I was 17 years old, my teacher encouraged me to participate in a poetry competition.
I wanted that cash prize, and I ended up winning the championship and publishing my poem!
A few months later, I received a Facebook message from a girl.
She said she was preparing for the upcoming exam, so she wanted to know more about the poems I wrote.
Later, after getting along, we found that the two of us were about the same age, so we made an appointment to meet and discuss.
Unexpectedly we have been together for four years now and will be getting married next month!
I often wonder what my life would have been like if my teacher hadn't let me go to that poetry contest..."
"After graduating from high school, I went straight to the city to find a job, and at first I had to rely on my savings to make ends meet.
But at that time, I didn't know why my account was deducted money, and I even overdrafted 10 times and owed more than $300!
So I had to go to the bank to find a clerk to find a way to solve this problem, and she ended up being my savior.
The cashier aunt not only helped me cancel all the arrears charges, but also helped me solve the problems of life.
Her son worked at a local restaurant and helped me get a full-time job there that weekend.
Later I met a handsome male colleague at the restaurant and introduced him to my sister, who fell in love until they got married and had two children!
At that time, his best friend also came to the wedding, and I introduced him to one of my roommates, but unexpectedly, they actually promoted a couple to get married!
Then I helped my best male friend get a job at a restaurant, where he also met the person he had spent his life with
One credit card debt has created three beautiful marriages, which is also worth it..."
"One day in May 1944, my mother and her five siblings were deported to Auschwitz.
Shortly after their arrival, they were placed in the queue waiting for the 'bath', when she was only 13 years old, she was so frightened that she held my grandmother's hand.
As a result, a passing Nazi soldier discovered this and forcibly ordered her to line up alone in another line, just to have fun watching her cry!
About 15 minutes later, my grandmother was poisoned in the gas chambers, while my mother was assigned to work in the concentration camp.
It wasn't until 1945, after the Russians liberated there, that she moved to Romania to live and met my dad..."
"One day I was going out to buy pizza and beer and go back to eating with my roommate, but he suddenly texted me to say that I didn't eat it because I didn't feel very comfortable.
So I had to go to a nearby restaurant for dinner alone, and I met a girl there.
She's now my wife and we've had two kids, and it's all thanks to my roommate's diarrhea."
"My cousin usually takes the bus home at 5:10 p.m. after work, and if she misses it, she has to wait another hour if she wants to sit down.
But one day she was too anxious at that point in time, so she had to go to the bathroom to solve the problem and wait for the next bus.
As a result, the bus at 5:10 that day fell off a cliff! She also picked up a life and came back..."
"When I was in the eighth grade, I had to take the bus home for a long time every day, so I could only pass the time on the road by reading books.
One day, I didn't know why, so I borrowed a book about astronomy in the library, and the contents of it instantly caught my heart!
I thought of this as a dream, and I actually became an astronomer, and now I specialize in space explosions.
Although it took a lot of effort to achieve this dream during this period, I am still very grateful that I picked up that book at that time~
"When I went to change the license plate a few years ago, I really didn't want to go there alone to wait in line.
So I told my mom that if she went with me, I would take her out to dinner.
As a result, it turned out that the person who worked at the front desk of the dmvest was actually my mother's long-lost brother!
If she hadn't gone with me, I'd never have known there was such a thing..."
"Once I was going to carpool with my aunt to a family party, but at the last minute before I left I decided to go by myself.
Because then you don't have to wait for her, you can pass early.
And then my aunt ditched the car on the way there, but fortunately the car was only hit in the co-pilot position.
If I hadn't changed my plans to sit in that position, I guess people would have been gone..."
"When my mom went to work in high heels before, she accidentally slipped on the carpeted steps and broke her leg.
During the time when she was resting at home, she didn't know why she had asthma, which led to the need to use an inhaler every day.

When he was operating on me, he found that my heart simply couldn't last the time I had booked before!
In other words, someone else canceled my appointment and saved my life..."
"When my husband was 18 years old, he suddenly found out that his mother's family was Spanish, not Mexican.
So he changed the field column in the social software data to 'Spain', which is his real ancestral home.
At the same time, I was in Australia just helping my friends find my Spanish hometown, and I stumbled upon my husband's profile.
We met online for three years and have been married for 7 years now!
If he hadn't changed the ancestral home column of his profile to Spain that day, we probably would never have known about the other person's existence..."
