In this book, “The Missing Piece Meets the Big O,” its main pictures are simple triangles, circles, and lines. Those lines are just like the way or stage of life, and people search for a circle to fit. In the journey of searching, people realize how to be an adaptable and appreciative circle. By those lines, the writer composed simple pictures and presented a philosophy of life.
In the beginning of the story, The Missing Piece kept waiting and search its mate, suffered many conflicts and hurts. But in the end of the story, it tried another aspect to look into its life. And its personality changed. In a small corner of its mind, it found that it had its own talents, and it knew how to appreciate and develop its abilities. It realized that after it found a mate and became a circle, its life still had defects and discord. What it had to do was to change itself, to give a chance to know itself. Then, it had self-identity and confidence to roll by itself, and met Big O again.
The narrator wrote down few letters in the story, but this could give readers a wide space to think about the story, readers’ lives, and themselves. To know the philosophy of life, everyone has to learn from his practical experiences. We may sometimes in the valley of life, but everyone has the ability to climb up by his own. Our mind will grow up with time, disrupted by new notions and views, and then, we change our mind. Because we accumulate lots of curious experiences, and learn to be a master of our own. In the last page of the book, no word had been written down, but only a crooked line. That means, this is the way of our life, and it makes us to think about how to play roles well in our life, or what is priceless and worthy to search in our life. Life is like a journey, may everyone could lead a marvelous life.

Dear Lynn,
This book is one of my favorite books. Its pictures and words just presented the philosophy of life. I really enjoy it.
People play more than one role in their life. Some people want to know the meaning of their life; others make a search for friendship, love, wealth, justice, freedom, or something they think priceless. After they suffer from ups and downs of life, these experiences compose their colorful life.
Life is beautiful, not because it is long or short, but splendid and amazing.
Cordially,
Vera
Dear Lynn,
I really love this book because in such few words, the writer translated life into simple pictures.
The story can express lots of meaning. For example, a person who search for love and happiness, but eventually he find out that he can get what he want in another way. Experiences are teachers in our life, we may bewail our misfortune, but we can learn lessons from them, and become more confident and courageous.
Lead rosy prospects in your life, rain or shine.
Sincerely yours,
Zoe
I guess the story is not telling people no to fall in love with some one or be single whole life. Fall in love with someone is a wonderful thing. If one day you break up with your lover, you must be able to live alone. I hope Lynn always be happy, no matter alone or two.
I read this book before, too. We can explain this story in many different ways. In my opinion, the missing piece wanted someone to fit it, but, it found that it is easier to change it than to ask others. And it was more confident and realized how to spend its life. Everyone is sure to have the ability to change his thoughts and action.
Hi Lynn:
Your article write very well that I can’t find some big mistake, you did a good job.
The article just needs a little editing. I’d like to give you some suggestions. First, I think you could make phrases, “ suffered ” in the sentence you can use “ suffering from”, “searched” you can use “ searched for”. Second, there are some verb form errors,
about the sentence “It realized that after it find a mate and became a circle” the verb form it is better to use “ found” . “ The narrator written down few letters in the story, but this can give readers a wide space to think about the story” “written” should use “wrote,” and “ can” is better to use “could”. Third, there is a spelling error that is “life” should use “ lives .”
You have a good ability in English.If you’d like, we could also discuss in the chat room.
Sincerely
Esme
