A photo of a boy who arrived at school with a head full of icicles (冰柱) has drawn widespread attention to children from poor rural families.

Wearing only a thin jacket, Wang Fuman, 10, had braved -9℃ weather to travel over an hour from his village home to reach Zhuanshanbao Primary School in Zhaotong, Yunnan province. “After walking more than 4 kilometers through the freezing snow, he arrived with his hair and eyebrows completely frozen, causing laughter among his 16 classmates,” said Fu heng, the school’s principal, who uploaded Wang’s photos on Monday morning. Fu added that his classrooms do not have heating because of a lack of money.

After hearing Wang’s story, the Yunnan China Youth Development Foundation offered a public donation for children from poor families on Tuesday. It has promised to give each needy child 500 yuan ($75) to help them stay warm in winter. By 1:00 p.m. on Wednesday, the provincial foundation had collected over 300,000 yuan in public donations according to their websites.

Wang, who has been nicknamed “Snowflake Boy” by netizens (网友), became well-known online. By Wednesday morning, his picture had been “liked” more than 260,000 times on Sina Weibo. “Many children in cities don’t have the strong willpower of this boy. I hope all his efforts will be rewarded,” a netizen wrote on SinaWeibo.

The name Fuman translates as “full of happiness”, but Wang does not come from a rich family. He lives in a mud hut (土坯房) with his grandmother and an elder sister, and seldom sees his parents because they are migrant workers in other cities.

“I love school. We can have bread and milk for lunch, and we learn lots of things in class,” Wang said. His village now has electricity and tap water, and my family is getting help to build a new house close to the school, he said. “I think our life will get better.”

The way we spend our time can be divided into three groups or jars (罐子). These would be the necessary tasks jar, the voluntary tasks jar and the happiness jar.

Every day, we spend time filling the necessary tasks jar. We fill this jar with useful things, like making money, doing housework, buying food and paying bills. We then fill another jar with voluntary tasks. These are things that we do for others, but we may not enjoy them. This jar is filled with tasks like taking children to activities and cooking family meals. Those jars are very important. If we don’t fill them each day, our family won’t run properly.

However, we often forget to fill the third jar? the happiness jar. This is the jar that we fill with activities that make us happy. Is your happiness jar sometimes empty at the end of the day? We all have days like that. Between doing all the necessary and voluntary tasks, time flies by on some days, and before we know it, it is time for bed.

That is why each day we try to fill our happiness jar. Most days, I fill mine by going to the ballroom dance (社交舞) class. Between the music, the dancing and the friendship among the students, I always leave classes happier than when I entered. Playing music is another way that I fill my happiness jar. This week, I was happy to take part in an orchestra (管弦乐队) practice at my church (教堂). A small group of us met to practice Christmas music for a church service. It was a time of fun, friendship and music making. At the end of the evening, my happiness jar was full.

Consider how your time is spent. Try to find ways to achieve a balance. At the end of the day, hopefully we’ve done all we can to make sure that our happiness jar is filled.
