angry every time you think of them. If you don't let this anger go, it can turn into
bitterness (痛苦).
Bitterness appears when we can't forgive (原谅) someone who has hurt us or made us
angry. Someone might say or do something that hurts us. But instead of controlling the
anger, we keep it beep inside. Before long, a bitter feeling begins to grow. We may think
we're hurting that person by criticizing (指责) him or her often, but we're really only
hurting ourselves.
Bitterness can not only lead to serious health problems such as heart disease, but
also hurt our relationships with friends and family members. No one enjoys being around
an angry person for very long.
If you see bitterness in your life, here are some ways to deal with it.
·Accept it
Instead of trying to deny your anger, make it clear to yourself and accept it. See
your anger
·Stop making excuses for it
You may feel you have a right to be angry.
You may think you're right and the other person is wrong. You may even secretly enjoy
making the other person look bad. But in the end, bitterness hurts you much more than the
other person. The bitterness will hold you back, and the other person will go on with his
or her life.
·Forgive and forget it
You probably can't completely put the anger out of your mind. But you can decide to
forgive the other person. Forget it and move on. You'll enjoy better heath and peace of
mind.

It is said that all dreams serve a purpose(目的). While there is no agreement among scientists about why we dream, there are many ideas about the different kinds of dreams we have.
One common kind of dream is the repeating dream, in which the same story is repeated again and again, often for many months or even years. Some believe these are a sign people have a problem in their life and once that problem is gone then the dream will stop. Others think they are a way to help people remember something very important.
Another well-known kind of dream is the nightmare. The pictures and stories in such dreams make people very afraid and dreamers usually remember them far more clearly than normal dreams. The cause of such dreams may be seeing something terrifying such as a car accident or some deadly snakes. Others think such dreams may be trying to make a person pay attention to something that is dangerous in their life.
Daydreams happen during wake-time when we forget where we are or what we are doing and find ourselves in a made-up story or unreal world. We often daydream when we are doing something that is not interesting or exciting. They help us think about our future.
Lucid dreams are the most fun. These happen when dreamers suddenly understand that they are dreaming. Instead of waking up, they stay in the dream and are able to control what happens in the dream as if they are making a movie.
