At 11 p.m. on November 21, 2003, when my mom and younger sister hugged with each other and cried, my heart was filled up with regrets. I would never forget about that moment for the rest of my life, and I could not find any excuse for myself, that...I was totally wrong!
When I won my first lot of money in soccer betting in August of that year, the arrogant and ego me rose up gradually inside my heart. I started to believe that just using my brain to analyze, it was pretty easy for me to gain ample amount of money via betting. When the times of winning accumulated, the amount of betting became higher and higher. At that time, I had only gambling in my mind, and nothing else. Then at last, when I found I had lost all my money, I even stole money from my mom for gambling!
After my mom and my younger sister found that out, they cried for the whole night through and even had to go visiting a doctor. But, when my mom came out from the hospital and saw me there, she held me tight and said "Everyone has a time for losing himself. No matter what bad thing you have done, you are still my beloved son!" When I heard that from my mom, I could not even standstill but knelt down in front of my mom and burst into tears, speechless.
