My mom and I couldn’t make enough candles during the week, so some of my school friends started to help us.

It was fun and my friends worked with me in the market.When I was _, my uncle lent me some money and I opened my first shop on Portobello Road.

But what happened recently proved me wrong. Simba, our German Shepherd Dog(牧羊犬) had died about forty days ago and we had still not stopped missing him. He was our shadow all along-during our long walks in Sanjay Van, at every corner of our home, and our family picnics. On that day we made up our minds not to raise another dog for a while.My husband and I have been going for our morning walks to Sanjay Van for years. It was one such morning when destiny decided to prove my beliefs wrong. For the very first time, we decided to e_plore a new track and see where it took us. Well, the track very quickly came to a d ead end and one small gate brought us out on to the main road. As we walked back, we came across this little Pomeranian dog(博美犬) crossing the road and was alm ost about to come under the wheels of a passing car. We quickly moved to rescue him and found that he was probably searching for his master, looking so tired and ill. He might not have eaten for days.He probably lost his way. We got him treated for all kinds of illnesses and at the same time distributed(分发) posters with his picture and description. But not a single person came to find him.His sweet nature and cuteness made us change our minds. We decided not to leave him in a shelter. He has been with us for the last two months now and has been surely towards taking Simba’s place in our hearts.This incident has made me think differently about the role of destiny in our lives.
