20.Happiness is not far away
Happiness comes from the little things in life.Simple ways in our daily life often help the most.It is not a dream for you to make it come true but a shining star that guides you and a mirror that shows you the meaning of life in the world.If you feel that happiness does not come to you,here are the following steps which will lead you there.
To yourself
Start by treating yourself kindly and becoming your own best friend.
Give up trying so hard to become someone else who is not yourself right now.It's better to just be you.
To your life
Walk in the park or along the street with a pet.Balance your life with activities and a good rest.
Play and do those activities which gently nurture (滋養(yǎng)) your own mind.Playing in your garden or filling your home with beautiful flowers is not a bad try and the memory of those flowers will be always carried with you.
Smile as you think about the future.If you smile,you can not have negative (消極的) thoughts!
Concentrate on the positive (積極的) in this world and look for joy.
To your work
Work hard and make efforts to reach your goals,and reward yourself when you are done.
Remove the task that is not useful.We are learning that doing too many tasks at the same time just doesn't work.
Try writing down what is troubling you,discussing your trouble with yourself.The science now shows that as you write your troubles,your brain will change for the better.
By writing a daily thanks dairy,you will feel the positive memory and experiences once more,and by remembering these moments,your levels of happiness will rise.
To your friends
You can write a"happy letter"to your family and friends every day.Just a short note will do.You can do the following:
Monday:Write a thank-you note to your friend.
Tuesday:Write a short letter to your friend about a good moment you have recently experienced.
Wednesday:Write about a nice moment you plan to experience in the future.
Thursday:Write a letter to someone that is important in your life.
Friday:Write three things that went really well today.
Saturday and Sunday:Go on with your daily thanks diary.
If you pay attention to all that is good in your life instead of negative thoughts,happiness will become a natural part of your day!

12.
Our class had a weekly class meeting this Monday.We talked about thanksgiving.Some students share their ideas or stories here.
************************************
Zhang Wei:We are supposed to express our gratitude(感激之情) to others on Thanksgiving Day.However,we should feel grateful(感激的) every day.To be grateful to others is a way to show your love.In our daily life,we often receive help from our parents,friends,workmates and strangers.Perhaps it is a little thing,pick up the pen you drop,lift a heavy box for you or offer you a seat in the bus.We should be thankful to them for whatever they have done.The more love you give,the more love you receive.
********************************************
Chen Ping:As we all know,thanksgiving is the first thing we should learn since we were born.It causes the goodness of life.When someone helps me,I say thank you to express our gratitude.When mum gives me dinner after school,I kiss my mum and say thanks.Mum kisses and smiles to me.Everyday,I study in the school,teachers tell us how to study.Friends play with me.I smile to them with a grateful heart--that is the goodness of my life.
********************************************
Xu Yan:Once President Roosevelt's house was broken into and lots of things were stolen.One of his friends wrote to him and advised him not to take it to his heart so much.President Roosevelt (羅斯?偨y(tǒng))  wrote back,saying,"Dear friend,thank you for your letter to comfort me.I'm all right now.I think I should thank God.This is because of the following three reasons:firstly,the thief only stole things from me but did not hurt me at all;secondly,the thief has stolen some of my things instead of all my things;thirdly,most luckily for me,it was the man rather than me who became a thief…"
