I am a mom of two young children whom we home-school.This that they are with me almost constantly.Whenever possible I will random acts of kindness; things like paying for the order behind me in the drive-thru lane, holding doors, etc.So, they are very with the concept and are, of course, to also do "nice" things for others.

Just a few days ago we stopped our local grocery store to pick up a few things which quickly turned into an entire cart load of stuff.We got into one of the two open checkout lanes and waited our .While waiting a young man came up behind us with only a few in his basket.I told him to go ahead of us as we were in no

He seemed very pleasantly surprised and graciously .As he began putting his items on the belt the clerk began to her till tape so we had a fairly long wait in line.My kids were very behaved but they were still children; they asked questions, they talked , they moved around and they were generally very entertaining.(To me, anyway.)

I could see the young man watching and listening with a smile on his face.

We were putting our groceries on the when the clerk finished with order.What I didn't know was that he had heard my kids bubble gum.I had agreed they could have some. he picked up a pack of bubble-gum and asked the clerk to ring it through twice before putting it back.He then told my kids that he bought their gum their mom was enough to let him go ahead in the queue.

The experience really drove home the that good begets(产生,引起) good for my lovely little kiddos(亲呢的称呼:小伙子).

You had better learn to be grateful.If you are grateful,you naturally yourself up to receive all kinds of blessings and good things in life.You can receive almost everything you want .If you want recovery soon,start by feeling grateful that you are still .If it is more money that you want,start being grateful for whatever of money you already have.

You see,showing gratitude(感恩) is the key to every thing in life.It is the key to successful relationships,it is the key to successful futures and it is the key to healthier and happier lives.And this is where the importance of being grateful lies. ,it makes life better.

One of my favorite is “If you learn to appreciate more of what you already have,you will find yourself having more to appreciate.” Think about that!

Something as as a “Thank you for being in my life” or “I having you here with me”,can go a long way.It will make the other person feel good,and it also will make you feel better!

So maybe your wife is not very around the house,but she’s great at cooking your favorite .Or,maybe your child milk all over your new shirt right before you walked out the door for work,but usually he makes you laugh so much and makes you the luckiest parent in the world.

I strongly you to make a promise to yourself for the next week.Decide to every morning and think of at least 5 things that you are for.Then say them out loud.You will notice a smile on your face without even .In 30 days you will feel completely renewed.This is the of being grateful!

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Do you know what a big dream is? 1. Or, is a big dream something that provides only entertainment? Children dream big dreams, but there are three barriers to realizing dreams. They often kill them before they ever have a chance to grow.

The Self

Immediately following the birth of a big dream, a negative self-talk takes over and gives all the reasons why it cannot happen. This inside voice is the ego(自我). It’s there for protecting and should be listened to. 2. Most people are influenced by the inside voice. That’s why only a handful of people make their dream come true.

3.

Family and friends are a lot like the ego. They want to protect those they love, so they will often list all the reasons why the big dreams won’t come true. Sometimes, family and friend destroy dreams of those they love most, out of their own fear of being left behind.

The World

If one gets past the first two barriers, one has to face the world. 4. In the past, big dreamers were locked up and sometimes even killed when they were shown to the world. Fortunately, in most of the world today, big dreamers just get laughed at.

The way to realize a big dream is with confidence and action. When children have confidence and then take action, they will be ready to accept any failure. The truth is that every great dreamer whose dreams have never seen the light of success knows failure well. 5.

A. Family and Friends

B. How Big Dreams Die

C. Does a big dream show one’s future ?

D. They simply fail until they succeed.

E. Sometimes it is right, but more often it is wrong

F. It is the last and the most terrible barrier.

G. And their big dream is to be a rock star or a famous artist.
