I had been a happy girl until one day when I was fifteen months old．One of my eyes was badly hurt in an accident．I lost the sight of the eye，with an ugly scar l * around it．

Children refused to play games with me．It made me very sad．I always walked ，looking at the floor ，so that people would not see the ugly face．My mother encouraged me to be brave．She told me，"Alice ，hold your head up high and face the world．If you do ，it will be OK ，and people will see your beautiful soul *．"Mom's words meant different things to me over the years．

As a little child，I thought Morn meant，"Be careful or you will fall down．"When I grew up，I still wanted to look down to hide my shame．She repeated these words whenever I wanted to hide．Mom's words helped me realize that I should look at people in the eye and let them know me．When I tried，I found people were friendly to me．

At university，I took part in all kinds of activities．I joined a music club．We held concerts to raise money to help poor children．The club became so famous and I had more friends．Then John，a popular musician，came into my life．He didn't mind the scar．We soon fell in love with each other．Two years later，we got married．

My mother's words have been encouraging me to face my problems bravely and believe in myself．
