Fifteen years ago，I was born in a big family.I had been taught that money couldn't buy everything ever since I was a little kid.My parents are the most hard-working people I have ever seen.As much as my parents tried to teach me these values，some could only be learned through personal experiences.

As a child，I would sit in the church trying to concentrate on the words of the priest（牧师），but my attention was soon attracted by the shining gold and the diamonds worn by the Saturday churchgoers.As my eyes began to wander，I noticed men dressed in their tailored suits and shirts accompanied by women in their designer dresses with matching handbags and shoes.

My family，on the other hand，was the opposite of rich.Our hand-me-down clothes had been washed so many times that the colors had become dull and lifeless.Although this revealed the money struggles of our large family，our faces were always washed and hair neatly combed When sitting on the old big red and white truck after the service，I pictured the lives led by those driving their brand-new cars，wishing I would be one of them.

I never stopped those fantasies，even when I was in middle school.Since it was a private school，most of the children came from wealthy families.As a result，I constantly felt ashamed Although I could hide my lack of wealth at school by wearing our school uniforms，my poverty was embarrassingly apparent on weekends with my classmates wearing designer jeans and I had no choice but to wear my sister's old jeans.I never fitted in with my classmates.To my relief, there was only one girl named Julie who opened her heart to me.I was attached to her like a shadow.Soon，her birthday was approaching.Julie invited me to attend her birthday party.
