一件后悔 A Regretful Thing

In the past three years, the life of middle school has impressed me deeply. Many stories happened. The following is one of them.

Xiao Ming was one of my good friends. One day, a little thing caused a serious quarrel between us. From then on, we didn't talk to each other. I had hoped to make peace with him but I finally failed to do that because of my being afraid of losing face. Not until he moved to another city with his parents did I know I lost my friend forever.

The lesson I learned from this is that if you realize your mistakes, you should correct them at once, or you may leave yourself lasting regrets.
