I was shopping in the supermarket when I heard the young voice. “Mom, come here! There’s this lady here my 41 !”
The mother rushed to her son; then she turned to me to 42 .
I smiled and told her: “It’s okay.” Then I talked to the boy, “Hi, I’m Darry Kramer. How are you?” He 43 me from head to toe, and asked: “Are you a little 44 ?
“Yes, I have a son,” I answered. “Why are you so little?” he asked.
“It’s the way I was 45 ,”I said. “Some people are little. Some are tall. I’m just not going to grow any bigger.” After I answered his other questions, I shook the boy’s hand, and left.
My life as a little person is filled with 46 like that. I enjoy talking to children and explaining why I look different from their parents.
It takes only one glance to see my 47 . I stand 114 cm tall. I was born a dwarf(侏儒). 48 so, I did all
the things other kids did when I was growing up.
I didn’t 49 how short I was until I started school. Some kids picked on me, calling me names. Then I knew. I began to 50 the first day of school each year. New students would always stare at me as I 51 to climb the school bus stairs.
But I learned to smile and 52 the fact that I was going to be 53 my whole life. I decided to make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage. What I lacked in height, I 54 in personality.
I’m 47 now, and the stares have not 55 as I’ve grown older. People are 56 when they see me driving. I try to keep a good attitude. When people are rude, I 57 myself: “Look what else I have — a great family, nice friends.”
It’s the children’s questions that make my life 58 . I enjoy answering their questions. My 59 is that people will accept their peers(同龄人), no matter what size and shape they come in, and treat them with 60 .
