A Person Worthy For Our Admiration

When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.
'Helen Keller'

I've come across the name of Helen Keller during my Chinese writing composition class. I was instantly awed by her when I read one of her writing and heard the story of her life. I really think that she was one of the greatest person in our history. How many of us, able people, have actually contributed to the world as much as she did. Moreover, all those that she had done was during the era of which women role were literally unheard of.
Her life story is one of the very classic example on how one can overcome one's shortcomings and thrive for the most in life. In her case, she had thrived even more than what a normal person could have done.
真是个了不起和让人佩服的人物!
With this I leave you with her other quote that I like very much

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart.
