A time when I lost an important and valuable item was about two years ago, during a family trip to the beach. It happened in the summer, and we went to a beautiful beach on the east coast of Taiwan. I was excited to spend the day swimming and playing with my friends, but unfortunately, I lost something very valuable to me.

The item I lost was a watch that my parents had given me as a birthday gift. It wasn't just any watch; it was a special one because my parents had saved up to buy it for me. The watch had sentimental value, and I wore it every day, so it was an important part of my daily life.

On the day I lost it, we were having fun at the beach, and I wasn't paying much attention to the watch. I was swimming in the ocean when I suddenly realized that it had slipped off my wrist. I searched for it in the water, but it was already too late. The waves were strong, and the watch had disappeared. I felt a mix of frustration and sadness because I knew I wouldn't be able to find it again.

Losing the watch made me feel terrible. Not only was it an expensive item, but it also held a lot of meaning for me. I felt guilty for being careless and losing something that my parents had worked hard to give me. This experience taught me to be more responsible with my belongings and to appreciate the things that have personal value.
