When I was 13 years old, a girl gave me an important gift. It was a smile. It was the early autumn of my first year at a junior high school, and my old school was far away. As a result, no one knew who I was. I was very lonely, and afraid to make friends with anyone. Every time I heard the other students talking and laughing, I felt even more lonely. I couldn’t talk to anyone about my problem, and I didn’t want my parents to worry about me. Then one day, my classmates were talking with their friends, but I sat in silence. At that moment, a girl entered the classroom. I didn’t know who she was, she passed me and then turned back. She looked at me and, without a word, smiled. Suddenly, I felt the touch of something bright and friendly. It made me feel happy, lively and warm. It was like a hidden treasure.

That smile changed my life. I started to talk with the other students and made friends. Day by day, I learnt to trust people, and they included me in their circle of friends. The girl with the bright smile has become my best friend now, and we stick together like glue. One day, I asked her why she smiled at me, she said she could not remember!

Now I believe that the world is what you think it is. If you think you are lonely, you might always be alone. So smile at the world and it will smile back.

One of the biggest mistakes a person can make is to try not to make mistakes. As you make decisions in your life, you will very likely make some mistakes. But making mistakes is a big part of how you gain( 获得) experience.

A simple example. You do poorly on a test because you didn’ t study hard enough. One bad test is not the end of the world, but it can quickly teach you that if you don’ t study, you won’ t do well.

Mistakes sometimes lead to arguments( 争 论) between people. But if you learn to understand things from another person’ s point of view, you will be able to learn very quickly from the mistakes you make and the mistakes you think other people have made. You can turn mistakes into opportunities( 机会) .

For example, if you learn to understand others’ feelings and problems, you will understand the people you work with much better instead of getting angry. And you will learn to talk about problems and be more patient with people you don’ t agree with—a friend, or a mate in your workroom or company.

So next time you think you’ ve made a mistake, stop and ask yourself what you’ ve learned from it, and what you will do differently in the future.

Show me the person in the room who has made a lot of mistakes, and I’ ll show you the person who has probably learned a lot.
