When asked about happiness,we usually think of something extraordinary,an absolute delight,which seems to get rarer the older we get.

For kids,happiness has a magical quality. Their delight at winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved (毫无掩饰的) .

In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes. Suddenly it's conditional on such things as excitement,love and popularity. I can still recall the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party.

In adulthood the things that bring deep joy — love,marriage,birth—also bring responsibility and the risk of loss. For adults,happiness is complicated (复杂的) .

My definition of happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment”. The more we can enjoy what we have,the happier we are. It's easy to overlook the pleasure we get from the company of friends,the freedom to live where we please,and even good health.

I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday. First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunch-box and had the house to myself. Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing,which I love. When the kids and my husband came home,I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the day.

Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work. I don't think that my grandmother,who raised 14 children,had much of either. She did have a network of close friends and family,and maybe this is what satisfied her.

We,however,with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area,have turned happiness into one more thing weVe got to have. We⁵re so self-conscious about our “right” to it that it's making us miserable. So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success,without noticing that the people who have those things aren’t necessarily happier.

Happiness isn’t about what happens to us it's about how we see what happens to us. It's the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative. It's not wishing for what we don't have,but enjoying what we do possess.

In the world of communication,we focus a lot on what our customer is saying,which includes understanding their body language and gestures. But we must not forget that it is equally important to pay attention to our own body language and gestures when communicating with others.

In our personal and business lives,careful consideration must be given to whom we are with and where they are from. One thing for sure is that failure to be prepared when dealing with other cultures can be rather embarrassing.

Many years ago,the then President of the United States,Richard Nixon arrived in a foreign country in South America and upon his arrival,stood at the top of the stairs leading to the side door of his Presidential Jet. As he looked over the crowd below him,he had a great smile and proudly raised both hands high in the air,palms (手掌) facing outward and the index finger and the third finger raised,and gave a gesture of the famous “Peace” sign as he had done so often before.

Immediately,the crowd below began to laugh at the President who couldn’t figure out why all of a sudden,he was receiving such a rude welcome.

The reason was that in the country he was visiting,the two-fingered,palms outward ^aPeacesign,which was acceptable in North America,was an absolutely impolite symbol to the local people.

As you can see,it is really important to know your audience and if travelling to other countries,you need to be aware that some of the most commonly acceptable gestures at home can have a completely different meaning abroad.

In some countries such as France and Italy,it is acceptable to exchange a kiss on one or both cheeks while shaking hands upon entering or exiting a business meeting. In other countries such as Japan,this type of behaviour is considered impolite as Japanese are not a “touch oriented society”.

The Japanese have a respectful custom to bow to each other with the most senior status (身份) person bowing the least and the least status person having to bow first and display the deepest bend from the waist.

Life will probably be very different in 2050. First of all,it seems that TV channels will have disappeared by 2050.
