我重树信心
i received a devastating blow to my
self-confidence in
the first interview
of my college years. i applied to be a
host in our student acting troupe and
felt confident that i
would be
accepted. but one of the panel members told
me
：
“you seem
inadequate an
d you are a little
vertically-
challenged.” my life has
never been the same since. i used
bigger heels to complement my height
and psychological
maneuvers and tricks
to hide my lack of confidence. but no
matter how hard i tried to look the
part, there was still
something
missing.
as president of english club, i
organized the rehearsal
of snow white
for an english party. unfortunately, we could
not find an actor to be the last dwarf.
it had to be someone
who was humorous
by nature and fluent in english. suddenly,
all eyes turned to me, and i knew i
would have to be the
dwarf. to my great
surprise and delight, once on stage, i was
totally absorbed in the performance and
my humorous nature
was put to full use.
as the dwarf, i was a big hit.
yes, each of us
is only one among millions of others, but
each of us is an individual and each of
us is unique.
cultivating our
individuality will transform our lives,
making of them a kaleidoscope of new
colors and textures.
a world deprived of
diversity would be a bland and boring
place. the real tragedy is not being
short or shy or ugly,
but having your
identity lost in a world in which everyone is
a clone of a model cool boy or a
flawless charming girl.
