    As the saying goes "failure is the mother of success", from my point of view ,something that is unwanted can be a gift. Everyone wants success but we always get failure,it is clear that we do not want failure but if you can take the failure as a gift ,you may more likely be succeed next time.As far as I am concerned, we need to gain the power to take the unwanted thing as a gift ,it can truly become a gift which can help you get the thing you wanted.

    I don't think so。 I think of gifts as something that surprises us and helps us. And if the arrival of this thing causes us some doubts, makes us feel worried, and wastes our time, I think it is not a gift; If this thing makes me feel happy and helps me in my work, my studies, I think it's a gift.

    Actually,I think it depends on the situation.Sometimes,something that's unwanted happening in your life is to help you grow.For example,some of peple like me find it hard to leave parents to live by ourselves,but somehow that day will come.Once it comes,all you can do is to accept it and brace yourself for the difficulties yuo will be faced with all by yourself in the future.And gratually you will find you become more independent and stronger.Besides,the long distance between you and your parents will deepen your relationship instead.So,this kind of "something that's unwanted" is a gift.It says:"wanna be a better person?Then accept me.Of course there will be difficulties,but also,you will grow."But,not all the "something that's unwanted" are gifts,such as the war,the discrimination and other people's malicious harm to you,etc.In these cases,something that's unwanted is just a disaster.We shouldn't take them as gifts and praise the suffering.instead,we should think about how to change these things to make the world a little better.So,not all the "something that's unexpected uncertain,unwanted and uncertain"are gifts.

    From my perspective,the keypoint of this view is the "maybe".The unexpected thing can be a gift,of course.Let me give a real example.It was when I'm in my high school that I was told to have a hemangiopma which made me pain everyday and amde me can't fall asleep at night.As a consequence of which,I have to have an operation which means that I must lose some time to study.That's a truly unexpected thing,isn't it?However,after this operation and I came back to school.Without the pain caused by the hemangiopma,my learning efficiency had been improved dramatically as well as my classmates who are all kind and friendly helped me a lot that strengthened our bond.From this example,we can see that something unexpected can be a gift.And I think that,not only should we talk about the "gift",but also should we konw that we should hold a optimistic attitude toward all the unexpected thing in our life which is more significant to our life.

    I totally agree with that. As far as I 'm concened, life is a process which is full of something that unexpected, unwanted and uncertain . When we face it correctly, solve it  actively and reflect it seriously, we will make great progress, improve our courage and get experiences which can help next time. I think maybe that's the best gift .

    I think I would just say yes.Angthing is possible.Just as the speaker said,the brain scar could also be a gift.I think whether it can be a gift depends on how the receiver see it.Everything has its benefits and disadvantages.If the receiver who received the gift is positive,he or she can see many benefits from it despite it is a bad thing sometime.He or she can treat it like a gift even if others are afraid of it.On the other side,if the receiver is negative when see things,obviously,the result will be completely different.

    I totally agree with that.No one knows which tomorrow or accident will come first. Seeing something that's unexpected, unwanted and uncertain as a gift is a positive state of mind. Death is a festival in Shi Tiesheng's pen, so those unexpected things should naturally be gifts.

     In my opinion ,when somethig unexpected happened, weather it was a gift or not depended on what effect it brought to you .For example , something bad suddenly happened, but you learned a lot from it and after this event you become more tough and tensile, in this situation, I think it's a gift . But in the other hand, if the event caused deep hurt to you and damaged your confidence ,it won't be a gift I think. That's all.

    I think it's possible, it depends on the situation. Just like me, I broke my meniscus last year, and it greatly interfered with my college entrance examination. In my opinion, it's not a gift. Finally, with my efforts, I got into the university I wanted ang my meniscus was still damaged. But if my meniscus is good, I will be lazy and don't think about doing sports. Because of it, I deeply know I need to exercise. Although I can't run, I can do push-ups and pull the horizontal bar, which is beneficial to my body. So it is a gift. When God closes a door and he will open another window for you!

    I think it's a good gift .As the saying goes:“ Something you unexpected may make you reborn."Something that unexpected, unwanted and uncertain may provide us a good opportunity to rethink what is most important in our life.It can make you reconnected with your friends and your family tightly ,adoration and admiration be overwhelming you,you will feel every moment you are be loved.It can make you stronger than ever before,you will have unsurpassed  vitality and energy.what is more,you will won a healthy lifestyle,a long vacation to have a good rest.so,i think it surely a gift for us.

    In one's life, there will always be some unexpected things. Whether these unexpected gifts are good or bad depends on your attitude.If you are happy when you receive this gift, it's a surprise to you.On the contrary,it will be a trouble.In short, believe that life will give you the best arrangement.I hope everyone can get a little surprise every day.Thanks for your reading!

    Well, I think there are valid point for both. cuz the unexpected, unwanted and uncertain things can bring both chances and troubles. And how it affects you depends on whether you can make good use of it or just be defeated by it. If you are strong and brave enough, try to take full advantage of those unexpected things, and learn something from it, make it a real “gift”,but if you can’t,don‘t be gloomy,try to view those blue days an opportunity to grow up, things always happen, you can‘t avoid them, so just turn the "trouble" into a nice “gift”.

    Actually,I think it depends on the situation.One situation is that the something you don't like at frist,but finally you get unexpected things on it.This actually is a gife.The other situation is that it is actually unpleasant,such as nasty disease.Those maybe let you know the beauty of world,the preciousness of families and friends and so,however,its value is based on its added value rather than on it.So it shouldn't be a gift.

    In our life ,unexcept is a normal things when growing. But it may be a gift or problem ,this is a double-sided issue of need our judgment. If it is a gift ,we need to take the chance to earn better life .On the other hand ,If it is a problem ,we should settle it in time to provent it being bigger things which will affect our normal life .So most importantly,we should take possession of the judgment.

    To a certain extent,yes.I always hold the opinion that a brilliant life is full of indetermination.Just because of this,I think that we should keep an optimistic attitude at all times.Although it is unexpected, unwanted and uncertain at first,we maybe gain something we appreciate from it.In the meanwhile,the human mind is flexible,maybe you do not like it now,but you will like it in the future.So why it is not a gift?And this gift is unique to you,which is a sign of your hard life.Since we cannot escape it,it is better to face it bravely and peacefully and just look at it as a gift of life.In this way,you will live a more comfortable and happy life.

    Of course everyone hopes that everything can happen in a way we expect.But the truth is this way is uncertain.Most important,we usually quest for our own profits so many disharmony things happen around us.Also,some clever people or just lucky one can transform them into good things but most people will still be bothered.Most of the time,we just can bury ourselves into solving these terrible things,but we actually can reduce them in the source to build a harmony society.

    Life is unpredictable and full of unknown things. If we regard these unknown things as a gift, then we can face life with an optimistic attitude. But it is wrong to treat it as a gift.  After all, it is impossible for everything to be a gift. We should be prepared to face challenges and the unknown

    On one hand,one thing that's unexpcted,unwanted and uncertain is just like a time bomb,which is out of our control.And I' sure a truly purposeful person will have a plan for everything in life.In addition,it seems to me that we should fight on our own,rather than anchoring hope in something unpredictable.On the oher hand,we cannot avoid such incidents.Without these things,isn't our life too dull?How can we grow up?All in all,learning to face them,deal with them,is an important thing in our growth.

    Actually, I don't fully agree with this view. In my opinion, maybe this unexpected, unwanted and uncertain things will heip us grow up quickly and let us better than befor, but  we truly experience this and we are hurt by this things. I can't regard this bad memory as gifts in my life. Because I don't want to experience this any more. I just want to change myself and protect myself to avoid this thing forever.

    I think so .In today's life more and more poeple are trying to get everything prepared ,but that's inpossible ,just as a movie once said "Live was like a box of chocolates,you never know what you're gonna get." The thing that's unexpected, unwanted and uncertain is something that means new opportunities and a new life ,and that is something taht really matters!

    Everything does have the two sides.The bad or good thing just is considered by the human.A man only have one day to live.if he have enthusiasm for life,he will think the day is a gift from god for him to enjoy the thing he love,but if the man have Negative feelings about life.He will think the day is a publishment for he to stand the feeling of death.But this is the life full of unknown.So that most of us can have a positive atitude for the tomorrow.So for better or worse,they both are gifts for us.

    In my opinion, accidents in life are good or bad, which should be judged according to specific circumstances. Sometimes losing is also a kind of opportunity. Gaining is not necessarily a kind of good luck.We have to seize the moment and love life.

    Well,I think I would probably have to say no. From my point of view,"gift" itself is something unexpected and uncertain.But when "unwanted" add to the adjective words,it is no longer a gift.Because gift is a thing that makes you excited and joyful,and something you don't wanted always makes you upset.However,I can't say absolutely about that.Life is full of uncertainty.Something that's unwanted may turn to a big surprise after a long time.

    I think it is not entirely ture. It can be wrong in  some aspects .For example,you can not know when the accident will be happen.it may occur in next time or never happen,nobody knows.However,it is correct in other some aspects.Such as,it may mean opportunity,a surprise from you family or an assistance from stranger when you get  into trouble.All in all,wo should view it in objective attitude.

    The answer will be different in different situation.And different people have different answers.

    some people may think uncertain things may be gifts,even if sometimes they are not happy situations.

    But I think unhappy things are terrible,let alone gifts. Such as terrible academic grades、sudden diseases.

    All in all,It is your attitude towards it that matters.

    I don't think so. Such stories are often found in beautiful articles in magazines. Even the authors behind these chicken soup for the soul don't expect to encounter unwanted things in real life. Not to mention our real society. Nowadays, with the development of society becoming more and more rapid, inner roll has become the most concerned problem. Everyone doesn't want to meet things you don't want when you struggle.

      It is true that no one wants to experience misfortunes, but it will not prevent them from happening. So even just in case, it is important for us to consider what is the proper attitude to take.

  • 苗淑婷 2022-10-09

    In my opinion, they are gifts. Although they may be unexpected, unwanted and uncertainto me, their arrival must be meaningful. In a person's life, we will encounter a lot of things, surprises or worries, but it is because they make our lives colorful. So whether they make me happy or sad, I will regard them as a gift.
