Looking back on the first twenty years of my life, I feel grateful to have been so healthy and happy

【题目】Looking back on the first twenty years of my life, I feel grateful to have been so healthy and happy. I owe my happiness to so many people and lucky events, but there are many key factors that have guided and supported me in my life. They are my physical health，healthy finances（经济情况） and my family’s happiness.

Health comes first for me, because without health everything else is meaningless. Imagine starting a career without good health. Imagine starting a family without good health. Imagine achieving anything without good health. 【1】

I suffer when they suffer. 【4】 They give me advice when I have misunderstandings with my friends. More importantly, they are always there to share everything with me.

【5】 As long as I stay healthy, work hard to earn enough money and share both good times and bad times with my family, I will always be the happiest girl in the world.
