Subject: The happiness I felt the day I rode a horse;

We went to the horse farm for my 12th birthday. My biggest dream was to ride a horse. I always had a passion for horses and my family made my dream come true. It was a beautiful summer morning. After having dinner at the picnic areas as a family, we started to love small animals. We took lots of photos with animals such as cats, dogs, rabbits and hamsters. Towards noon, the horses were jumping over the bindings for walking and warming up. Thanks to the staff there, we fed the horses with sugar and apples. After a few hours, the horses were ready to ride and we did a few laps of jogging. We had lots of photos and videos. Towards the evening, after having dinner at one of the cafes there, we celebrated my birthday. It was very nice. Then we came home and it was a very fun and exciting day.

Once upon a time, Nasreddin Hodja came to the lakeside and sat down and then started eating yoghurt. He suddenly thinks of fermenting the lake. While Hodja is trying to ferment the lake, a villager passing by the lake sees Hodja and the villager calls out Hodja, "What are you doing?" Hodja says he is fermenting the lake. The villager says Hodja, what are you doing? You can't ferment the lake. This is impossible. Hodja says why not?

I find this story very instructive because it wants to explain to us that there is no such thing as impossible and everything is possible, that is, it is a story that wants to tell us that some things perceived as real may actually be radical, for this reason I chose to share this story with you.

In the beginning, I didn’t talk to anyone, but there was one girl whose energy and way of speaking caught my attention. Some days, bus rides were fun because of her, and I thought she was really sweet. One day, she fell on the bus, and that’s when we started talking. Later, she showed me videos on her phone, and we laughed together. One day, I overheard that she was going abroad. We weren’t close at that point, so I didn’t say anything, but now I wish I had spent more time with her. After she said goodbye, I learned she had moved away permanently. I didn’t know why, but I felt sad. A few months later, during the summer, she sent me a message. I was surprised and happy. We started talking often, sharing stories about our lives, and became very close. Later, I found out that she wanted to meet me back then but was too shy. She taught me that someone can feel like family without being related. A few weeks ago, she told me she was coming to Turkey, and now it’s certain. I’m so happy to see her again.

This year it was August. It was our dream to go on vacation with my best friend. We really wanted to go this year. We tried very hard to get permission from our families. It took almost a month. We went on Saturday. We went to Arsuz.We stayed in a bungalow for 2 days. Those two days were the best days of my life. We ate pizza. In the evening we went to the beach. We drank coffee and chatted. On the second day, we woke up early. We went to the beach and watched the sunrise. These days were perfect and I will remember them as one of the happy moments of my life. Ela Tatlıdil 11/C 883

It was the first day of 9th grade, and I was excited but shy about starting a new school. I only knew my elementary school friend, but their seat was taken. So, I sat next to someone new and introduced myself. At first, we only said a few words, but by lunchtime, we were talking comfortably. We found shared interests and quickly became friends.

Now, my elementary school friend is still by my side. The new friend we met lives in another city, but we keep in touch. I can’t forget that day because we built a lifelong friendship in just one day.

HE DIED

It was the morning of November 5th, and I was singing while picking up leaves in the garden. My mom came out to the balcony and told me she had heard the news of my grandfather's death, and life stopped. I was probably eleven years old, and it was the first time I had received the news of someone I loved passing away. My mom went inside, and I started making up a song by the side of the garden. This song helped me keep the memory of the day my grandfather passed away in my mind. But it wasn't as simple as it seemed. When they brought his coffin and opened it in front of me, who could know the pain I felt, crying and screaming? He was the only person who taught me love and loved me. His passing left a huge emptiness in my heart. At first, I didn’t realize it, but then I found myself giving love to people, expecting it in return, but I never got it. In the end, I chose to get used to living without love.
