  Just be happy.Sounds too simplistic, doesn’t it? But, in reality, we can have much more happiness if we choose to consider things from a positive point of view.Everyone experiences the ups and downs of life, however, we can make a decision to take advantage of the negative or practice what the old saying says to do:“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade!”

  It really boils down to your attitude and you have the ability to work your attitude into any shape you like.Here are some tips:

  ●Ignore those who tell you life is too difficult to be happy.what do they know?

  ●When you awaken each morning, be thankful for another day, even if it’s raining.

  ●Smile at those you meet, even if they don’t return the favor.

  ●Don’t borrow trouble.Each day has enough of its own.

  ●Don’t allow trouble to bury you in its gray depth of sorrow.

  ●Don’t give in to negative thinking.

  ●Be positive even when others are not.

  ●Refuse to give up on anything worth having or doing.

  ●Do something you enjoy each day, even if it’s just a walk in your neighborhood.

  ●Whistle(吹口哨)as you go though the day.

  ●Work at being happy because it’s worth it.

  You’re human, like everyone else, and from time to time you need a little pick-me-up in your decision to be happy.When you reach that stage, find someone else who has decided to be happy.Join forces with him and march forward in your decision to be a happy person.Simply speaking, a happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances(环境)but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes.

  Choose today to just be happy-as much as it depends on you!

  As Amy Hagadorn rounded the corner across the hall from her classroom, she collided with a tall boy from the fifth grade running in the opposite direction.

  “Watch it, Squirt,” the boy yelled, as he moved quickly around the little third grader.Then, with a self-satisfied smile on his face, the boy took hold of his right leg and imitated the way Amy limped when she walked.

  Amy closed her eyes for a moment.

  ‘Ignore him,’ she told herself as she headed for her classroom.

  But at the end of the day, Amy was still thinking about the tall boy's mean teasing.It wasn't as if he were the only one.It seemed that ever since Amy started the third grade, someone teased her every single day.Kids teased her about her speech or her limping.Amy was tired of it.Sometimes, even in a classroom full of other students, the teasing made her feel all alone.

  Back home at the dinner table that evening Amy was quiet.Her mother knew that things were not going well at school.That's why Patti Hagadorn was happy to have some exciting news to share with her daughter.

  “There's a Christmas Wish Contest on the radio station,” Amy's mom announced.“Write a letter to Santa and you might win a prize.I think someone at this table with blond curly hair should enter.”

  Amy giggled.The contest sounded like fun.She started thinking about what she wanted most for Christmas.

  A smile took hold of Amy when the idea first came to her.Out came pencil and paper and Amy went to work on her letter.“Dear Santa Claus,” she began.

  While Amy worked away at her best printing, the rest of the family tried to guess what she might ask from Santa.Amy's sister, Jamie, and Amy's mom both thought a 3-foot Barbie Doll would top Amy's wish list.Amy's dad guessed a picture book.But Amy wasn't ready to reveal her secret Christmas wish just then.Here is Amy's letter to Santa, just as she wrote it that night:Dear Santa Claus,

  My name is Amy.I am 9 years old.I have a problem at school.Can you help me, Santa? Kids laugh at me because of the way I walk and run and talk.I have cerebral palsy.I just want one day where no one laughs at me or makes fun of me.

  Love,

Amy
