When lost, looking at the bright, staying calm and thinking who you really are and find what you really want, and then, you will find your way home. —-by Grandpa

Being lost may be a horrible memory for most people, however, it is something new for me.
When I was eight years old with my grandpa, due to the fact that my parents was struggling in the city to earn a little money for a living, I had become a left-behind child.
The most unforgettable time was when I had dinner together with my grandpa by means of the slight stars’ night as my hometown was so poor that we can not afford even one streetlight. After we finished eating, we would have a break and my grandpa was used to staring still at the sky. At that time, I was a naughty boy who really tent to bounce around and did some mischief. One day, I was curious about my grandpa’s full concentration to the black sky, so I asked him: “Is there something particular in the sky?”
“Sure.” He said calmly with his eyes shining like a star.
“Really, what?”
“The particular thing is hard to express. However, if you stay calm and stare at the light in the sky, you can find your way home.”
“Err…It sounds really nice.”
Then, I stared at the moon night just like my grandpa, unfortunately, I could see nothing but the annoying stars which just show off in the distance.
What unpredictable the world is, before long, I had got to go home by myself because my grandpa fell sick in the hospital that my grandma needed to look after him while my parents can not arrive my countryside in time as the consequence of the less developed traffic.
The first day I went home alone was the day I was lost in my way home.
As my hometown is far away from my school, every time I arrived home followed by my grandpa, the day was turning to dark. When crossing the unavoidable raw forest, and soon after I found I was lost in the forest, may be the center of it. And I was lost in fear. I feared that I might be bitten by a huge snake or eaten by a wolf. Unlikely, my grandpa won’t come and help me. Quickly, Fear drown me and I stayed still doing nothing but shrinking.
The night getting darker and darker, what upset me was that I may can never see my grandfather forever.
And then, I looking up to the sky unconsciously, as I gradually seeing through the sky, I had seen the picture which I had never imagined before. Several stars moving around the darkness, no matter how weak they are, they just shining instead of losing lustre. They just like the warrior who fight against the troubling darkness and follow their mission to bring the light to the world. Deep in thought, my fear and worrying was fading off gradually, the night has turned to more darkness. But it doesn’t matter, because when I came down I can see my way home clearly.
Finally I’ve found my way home by following the guidance of stars.
The time I lost in the forest should have been the last time my grandpa sends me home, my grandfather left us forever after a serious disease. The last words he said to me was that “When lost, looking at the bright, staying calm and thinking what you really are, and then you will find your way home.”
Every time I fell confused about my future, I just see through the sky, because my grandpa has ever said:”The particular thing is hard to express. However, if you stay calm and stare at the light in the sky, you can find your way home.” The time when stars shining in the sky has gone because the air has been polluted. Just like the kind child’s heart may turned to corporeal and suck into money worship after going through the dirty.
After a dozen years, now I can really understand my grandpa’s last words:”When lost, looking at the bright, staying calm and thinking who you really are and find what you really want, and then, you will find your way home.”
