Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, “Happiness depends upon ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future —for example, getting into college or getting a good job —that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity. Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.

    A man went to the house of a rich man. He saw a bag of apples by the roadside. He thought, “I don’t want to eat those apples, because the rich man will give me a lot of good food.” Then he took the apples and threw (丢掉) them away into the dust(垃圾堆).

    He came to a river. The water in the river was very deep(深) and he couldn’t go across the river. He waited for some time and then said, “I can’t go to the rich man’s house today because I can’t cross the river.” So he began to go home.

    He had nothing to eat that day. He was very hungry when he came to the apples. He was glad to take them out of the dust.

    Don’t throw good things away, you may be glad to have them sometimes.
