9.We always convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married,have a baby,than another.Then we are disappointed that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are.After that we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with.We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage.
We always tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse (配偶) gets his or her act together,when we get a nice car,and are able to go on a nice vocation and when we retire.The truth is:there's no better time than right now.If not now,when?Our life will always be filled with challenges.It's best to admit this to ourselves and decide to be happy anyway.
One of my favorite quotes comes from Alfred Souza.He said."For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin--real life.But there were always some obstacles in the way,something to be gotten through first,some unfinished business,time still to be served,a debt to be paid.Then life would begin.At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life."This perspective has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness.Happiness is the way.So do not let it slip from you now.
And remember that time waits for no one.So stop waiting until you finish school,until you go back to school; until you get married,until you get divorced; until you have kids; until you retire; until you get a new car or home; until spring; until you are born again to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy…
Happiness is a journey,not a destination.So,work like you don't need money,love like you've never been hurt,and dance like no one's watching.

13.A busy public square in the Chinese city of Nanjing is home to an unusual experiment.
For almost two months,the country's first"honesty bookshop"has occupied(占据)a sidewalk on HanZhong Road in the city's Gulou District.
With no cashier or other staff,the store relies on trust for payment.
Making money isn't the company's main goal and they don't punish those who take books without paying.
"If they can really finish the books,it doesn't matter if they took the books for free,"Zhu Yu,the marketing director of the company says.
"In fact,we are really happy to witness so many people taking books from the honesty bookshop."
After browsing the four wooden bookshelves,customers must drop their money in a locked box.
Prices are set at 30% of the usual cover price.
Zhu hopes that his sidewalk store,which sells,on average,60books a day,will make more people interested in reading.
Like elsewhere,e-books are affecting sales of traditional books,And traditional books and many independent booksellers are struggling.
Zhu got permission from the city government to use the sidewalk and says he's determined to make it a long-term project.
He says the store is open every day,except when it rains,and it's locked up each night.
In September last year,the company laid out 1,000books and reading lamps on the ground and encouraged people"to go on a date"with a book.
"Independent bookshops represent the well-being of the city."Zhu told CNN in 2013,"when a city is losing its bookshops,it's actually losing something in its soul."
If the success of the Honesty Bookstore is any guide,Nanjing's soul is in pretty good shape.
