Julia Rose from   the United States

Hi, my name is Julia Rose.   I'm 16 years old and I've been teaching myself Chinese for the past few   months. I have completely fallen in love with it. I watch everything in   Chinese, speak Chinese whenever I can, and learn about it every day. I take   classes online and at a Chinese Academy and I want to become fluent in the   language. Because it's only been a couple of months, I can only   speak at a beginner's level and want to keep practising until I can get much   better. I hope you can help me with my journey. I am willing to help anyone   with English, too.

 A wise man was visiting a village with his students. He found a group of family members shouting in anger at each other. He turned to his students and asked, "Why do people shout in anger at each other?"

  His students thought for a while,and one of them said, "Because when we lose our calm,we shout."

  "But why should you shout when the other person is just next to you? You may just tell him what you have to say in a soft manner as well," said the wise man.

  Students gave some other answers but none was any good.

  "When two people are angry with each other,their hearts become distant," the wise man explained. "To cover that distance they must shout to be heard by each other. The angrier they are,the louder they will have to shout at each other and cover that great distance."

  The wise man then gave an example, "What will happen when two people fall in love? They don't shout at each other but talk softly because their hearts are very close. When they love each other even more,what will happen? They don't need to talk. They only look at each other and that's all. That is how close two people are when they love each other."

  He looked at his students and said, "So when you argue,do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance you from others. Otherwise,there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return."

Happiness is important for everyone. Most people want to be happy,but few know how to find happiness. Money and success don't bring lasting happiness. Happiness depends on ourselves. In other words,we make our own happiness.

Some people 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 position in the government is happiness. In this way,you have not only money,but also many other things which can't be bought by money. However,other people believe that having lots of money is not happiness,nor is holding a high position in the government. These people value (重視) their beliefs,or their intelligence,or their health.

People who have close friends usually enjoy happier and healthier lives.

The second secret of happiness is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget their problems and only think about the activities.

Finally,many people find happiness in helping others. According to studies,people feel good when they volunteer their time to do many meaningful things for other people. If you want to feel happier,do something nice for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies,go shopping to get food for an old neighbor,or simply help around the house.
