In fact, h
5、appiness could be anything.But I dont know it when I was a young girl. When I was in high school, I always unhappy all day. I always thought that the beautiful flowers had so short life when I saw flowers withered. I always thought the trees would be very ugly when I saw yellow leaves fell down from
6、 the trees. Candles was burning with tears. Moon usually had no perfect face. I wrote dairies with sad sentences.One day, my mother told me a story: there were two child in a family. One was very pleasure all day , but another always wept . Their father wanted to change them. So he put his happy son
7、 to a stable in where there is only some dunghill of horses. And he gave his sad son many many toys. Two hours later, he saw his happy son was digging the dunghill happily. “Dad.” he shouted happily. “I will dig a foal out from the hill!” when he opened the stables door. But when the father came in
8、his sad sons room, what happened? His sad son was crying. “Dad, there are too many toys to play. And Im afraid to make the toys broken.” “My daughter,” my mother told me. “There are too many things happen every day. Everything has two sides. We should notice the good points; otherwise, we will have
9、a gray life.” From then on, I changed my mind: there will grow some fruit when the flowers withered. Spring will come soon, when the leaves fall down from the trees. And the falling leaves look like butterflies. Candles can bring bright for us. And its burning with romantic. The moon is so beautiful
10、 because it has different shapes. usually had no perfect face. I wrote dairies with sad sentences.Cherish everyday and enjoy it. The right to pursue happiness is issued to us all with our birth, but no one seems quite sure what it is. Happiness means different things to different people. For example
11、, They believe that if they are wealthy, they will be able to do anything they want, which means happiness. On the other hand, some people believe that holding a high positioninthe government is happiness. In this way, you have not only money, but also many other things which cant be bought by money
12、. I worked on the computer to write my speed yesterday. I read a paragraph from the internet: My happiness is to sleep until 11 oclock in the morning, eat noodles once each day, have a cup of hot milk in the evening and to have chatting with my good friends. There are two types of people in the worl
13、d. Although they have equal degrees of health and wealth and the other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes miserable. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds. The people who are to be happy
14、fix their attention on the conveniences of things, the pleasant parts of conversation, the well-prepared dishes, the goodness of the wines, and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and continually discontented. By their remarks, they sour the pleasu
15、res of society, offend many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind were founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The tendency to criticize and be disgusted is perhaps taken up originally by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it are convinced of its bad effects on their interests and tastes.
