Once a man got on a bus for New York. He hid in toilet, because he did not want to pay. But a passenger saw her. She tapped the person in front of her on the shoulder and say, "There's a bum(Á÷À˺º) in the toilet. Tell the bus driver." The message was passing from person to person. But anywhere along the way, it changed. The bus driver was told that there was a bomb in the toilet. He immediate stopped the bus and telephoned the police. When the police came to, they told the passengers to get off the bus or stay far away. Then they closed the highway. This soon caused a 15-miles-long traffic jam. Under the help of a dog, the police searched for two hours. Of course they found no bomb!

As you are probably aware, the latest job markets news isn¡¯t good: Unemployment is still more than 9 percent, and new job growth has fallen close to zero. That¡¯s bad for the economy, of course. And it may be especially discouraging if you happen to be looking for a job or hoping to change careers right now. But it actually shouldn¡¯t matter to you nearly as much as you think. That¡¯s because job growth numbers don¡¯t matter to job hunters as much as job staff-turnover(ÈËÔ±Á÷¶¯)data. After all, existing jobs open up every day due to promotions, resignations(´ÇÖ°), and retirements. (Yes, people are retiring even in this economy.)In both good times and bad, staff-turnover creates more openings than economic growth does. Even in June of 2014, when the economy was still booming along, job growth was only 132£¬000, while staff-turn over was 4.7 million!

And as it turns out, even today¡ªwith job growth near zero¡ªover 4 million job hunters are being hired every month.

I don¡¯t mean to imply that overall job growth doesn¡¯t have an impact on one¡¯s ability to land a job. It¡¯s true that if total employment were higher. It would mean more jobs for all of us to choose from(and compete for). And it's true that there are currently more people applying for each available job opening, regardless of whether it¡¯s a new one or not.

But what often distinguishes those who land jobs from those who don¡¯t is their ability to stay motivated. They¡¯re willing to do the hard work of identifying their valuable skills; be creative about where and how to look£»learn how to present themselves to potential employers; and keep going, even after repeated rejections. The Bureau of Labor Statistics data show that 2.7 million people who wanted and were available for work hadn¡¯t hunted for it within the last four weeks and were no longer even classified as unemployed.

So don¡¯t let the headlines fool you into giving up£®Four million people get hired every month in the U.S. You can be one of them.

Alexandra Scott was born to Liz and Jay Scott in Manchester, Connecticut on January 18, 1996, the second of four children. Shortly before her first birthday, Alex was diagnosed with neuroblastoma, a type of childhood cancer.

On her first birthday, the doctors informed Alex¡¯s parents that if she beat her cancer it was doubtful that she would ever walk again. Just two weeks later, Alex slightly moved her leg at her parents¡¯ request to kick. This was the first indication that she would turn out to be a courageous and confident child with big dreams and big accomplishments.

By her second birthday, Alex was able to stand up with leg braces£¨Ö§¼Ü£©. She worked hard to gain strength and to learn how to walk.

In August of 2004, Alex passed away at the age of 8, knowing that, with the help of others, she had raised more than $ 1 million to help find a cure for the disease that took her life.

While waiting to pick up a friend at the airport in Portland, Oregon, I had an experience which occurred merely two feet away from me.

Trying to locate my friend among the passengers, I noticed a man coming toward me carrying two light bags£®He stopped right next to me to greet his family.

First he kissed his three children one by one and said, ¡°It¡¯s nice to see you£®I missed you so much!¡± Then he hugged his wife, ¡°I¡¯ve saved the best for last!¡± giving her the longest, most passionate kiss I ever remember seeing£®They stared at each other¡¯s eyes, beaming big smiles at one another, while holding both hands£®For an instant they reminded me of a couple who recently got married, but I knew by the age of their kids that they couldn¡¯t possibly be.

Full of admiration, I asked, ¡°Wow! How long have you two been married?¡± ¡°Being together for fourteen years total, married twelve of those.¡± He replied, without stopping staring at his lovely wife¡¯s face£®¡°Well, then, how long have you been away?¡± I asked£® ¡°Two whole days!¡± ¡°Two days?¡± I was surprised£® By the intensity(Ç¿¶È) of the greeting, I had assumed he¡¯d been gone for at least several weeks---if not months£®I knew my expression betrayed me, so I turned away my eyes and murmured offhandedly(Ëæ±ãµÄ£¬²»¼Ù˼Ë÷µÄ), ¡°I hope my marriage is still that passionate after so long!¡±

The man suddenly stopped smiling and looked at me straight in the eye£®With forcefulness he told me something that left me a different person£®¡°Don¡¯t hope, friend¡­decide!¡± Then he smiled again, shook my hand and said, ¡°God bless!¡±

With that, he and his family turned and went away together.

I was still watching that man and his special family walk just out of sight when my friend came up to me and asked, ¡°What are you looking at?¡± Without hesitation, and with a curious sense of certainty, I replied, ¡°My future!¡±
