The Cocoon Breaks and the Butterfly Flies

I am hearing-impaired, and my hearing loss has bound me like a cocoon since kindergarten. I couldn't hear the explanations clearly in class, I was always misunderstood when communicating, and loneliness and frustration followed me closely. But I never gave up and worked hard to gain knowledge in the bitterness. Those footprints in the past, whether deep or shallow, have all turned into nutrients, helping me break through the cocoon of silence and fly into the sky of life.
