I used to skate a lot. With every Olympic song, I found an excitement growing inside me when I was first to skate at the age of five. But, unluckily, I was badly hurt in a match. I quickly stopped my skating. Smiling, my husband just said, “Skating is your passion (酷爱)，but of course we can stay at home.”

It was crazy, I know, that a thirty-seven-year-old mother of two children wanted to skate under disco ball lights after 10 years. I found the excitement growing inside me. I loved to skate. So I was out there having the time of my life，listening to the music with a smile on my face and heart. I hoped I could skate again.

I belonged here. It was so right to be back on the ice.

“Did you use to be a skater？”A little girl looked up at me with questioning eyes. Taking time to give my answer，I looked around the rink (溜冰场)，where I could see so many years of lessons，Olympic dreams，and a love of the ice would never die. “No，”I answered，“I'm a skater.” With a smile，I glided away.

Skating had finally turned me into a champion——a winner of a lifelong passion for favorite sport.
