I work in a company in India which has branches in Germany and the UK,so I take business trips to these places.We have a tradition at the company that anybody coming back to India from a foreign country gets for all the other members of the company.Naturally the chocolates are finished in no time because everyone them and tries to get as many as possible.
I that the housekeeping staff members never had the chance to get even a single chocolate maybe because they were not as quick as others to take the chocolates.I felt it was to them.
Recently, I came back to India from Munich and I had a lot of chocolates for them.I met one of the housekeeping staff members called Babu.I gave him a packet of chocolates and told him to distribute(分发)them in his department.His face lit up with joy and thanked me again and again,which made me very happy.
But the didn’t end here.The best part of it was that Babu actually distributed the chocolates to in the company equally instead of just distributing them among members in his .So it was so touching for me to see this.
I find it really hard to why we,who have the money to buy chocolates and other goodies,do not feel like but just think about how to get more. ,Babu,who earns only just about enough to raise his family, was so generous and did not even one extra chocolate for himself.I want to request all of us learn from Babu for being so and caring!

To be a real gentleman, you should know that true forgiveness is one of the most remarkable qualities a human can possess!
In the fighting between two countries in the 1970s, a young man was walking from one village to the next when he was by an armed guerrilla fighter from the enemy country.The fighter the young man down the hill where he was to be .
But a(n) thing happened. The young man, who had military training, was able to disarm the fighter.Now, the table was and it was the fighter who was ordered down the hill.
As they walked, , the young man began to reflect on what was happening.Recalling the of his mother, "Love your enemies; do good to those who you." He found he could go no farther.
He 10 the gun into the bushes, told the fighter he was to go and turned back the hill.
Minutes later, he heard footsteps53 behind him as he walked."Is this the end after all?" he . Perhaps the fighter had got the gun and wanted to finish him off.But he continued on, glancing back, until his enemy reached him, only to grab him in a hug and pour out for sparing his life.
Mercy often wears the face of .And though it usually isn't an enemy in uniform-that we are challenged to forgive, we have for mercy every day. Family members and friends, co-workers and neighbors and even strangers have for our forgiveness. You know who they are.
As Mahatma Gandhi said, "The can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. " Be strong. Forgive.

There was a woman named Japan Atsuko Saeki living in the city of Fujisawa.When she was a teenager, she of going to the United States.Most of what she knew about American was from the textbooks she had read.“I had a in mind: Daddy watching TV in the living-room, Mummy cakes and their teenage daughter off to the cinema with her boyfriend.”
Atsuko to attend college in California.When she arrived, however, she found it was not her world.“People were struggling with problems and often seemed ” she said.“I felt very alone.”
One of her hardest was physical education.“We played volleyball,” she said.“The other students were it, but I wasn’t.”
One afternoon, the instructor asked Atsuko to the ball to her teammates so they could knock it the net.No problem for most people, but it terrified Atsuko.She was afraid of losing face she failed.
A young man on her team what she was going through.“He walked up to me and ‘Come on.You can do that.’”
“You will never understand how those words of made me feel…Four words: You can do that.I felt like crying with happiness.”
She made it through the class.Perhaps she thanked the young man; she is not .
Six years have passed.Atsuko is back in Japan, working as a salesclerk.“I have forgotten the words,” she said.“When things are not going so well, I think of them.”
She is sure the young man had no idea how much his kindness to her. “He probably doesn’t even remember it,” she said.That may be the lesson.Whenever you say something to a person cruel or kind—you have no idea how long the words will She’s all the way over in Japan, but still she hears those four words: You can do that.

In the middle of a beautiful day, I was feeling lost, as if the world was crashing on me. didn't know which way to go, except to head out to the countryside. I went to the spot where I used to take my kids-when I still had kids. Now they had and were leaving.
I was sitting alone in my car when I saw a man in his seventies, whose problem appeared bigger than mine. He stood near the edge of the road, a kite spindle(风筝线锭) in his hands. Apparently, lost in thought, he stared skyward. I my neck to see how successful he had been in the clouds. Following his string with my eyes, I almost lost 0f the other end. Finally, the kite rested on what seemed to be the highest branch of the tree in the park. Obviously, that was his grandson's kite! The kite was a replica (复制品) of a beautiful bald eagle, and its wings spread 0pen. Grandpa had only one to his problem: cut the string.
"You wanted it to fly as high as it could. Bill. didn't you?" "Yes, Grandpa, wanted to keep it forever. " "There just comes a time when the only thing you can do is to cut the string and let it go. Perhaps by doing that, when it flies very high like real eagles do, it will come back to us. " Grandpa said.
I how the old man cut the string to let fly the kite. As the two walked away, looked to the . There I saw my answer, too. Today I have to cut the final strings that kept my two boys my reach. Though I want to keep them forever, I have taught them to fly like an eagle. Maybe by doing this, when it's time to soar like real eagles do. one day they would come back to me.

Failure,they say, is the best teacher. We learn and have more confidence in what we know through trial and error, which onetime or another has failure. You don’t have to your failure if what you really want to achieve is .
For every achievement, there have been one or more failures. But those who we call successful are those who to accept failure and believe success is the other side of failure. The incandescent light (白炽灯) was after 1,000 failures. If Thomas Edison had after he tried 100 times without the desired result, what would have been the of such effort?
Any time you see products and new inventions, think in terms of failures that are not accepted. everything in a microform (微缩过程) today is a result of failure not accepted.
Any time your effort is not bringing a(n) result, you don’t have to call it a failure. Call it a challenge. What is the between the two? One is negative, the other is ; one demotivates , the other motivates.
What you need is positive thinking and motivation to success. Failure is an end thing; is an open thing. Failure means there is no way out, no alternative, but a challenge is a question mark another way out of the situation, an alternative to the problem.
Keep dreaming, keep moving; that is the solution to success.
A wise man once said if you cannot fly, run. If you cannot ,walk. If you cannot walk, crawl; just keep moving. If you fall down, you have to and start moving. If not, other people will step on you towards their . What you call failure and is what someone will step into with just a little additional effort to reach achievement.

Less is more. This is why we say reduce things by half instead of doubling them, get rid of junks instead of piling them up, slow down instead of .
When you concentrate on one task, you find you have that you didn’t even know you had. The pressure at work is on the rise. In the past, the expectations were among all the family members. But now, in the family, the expectations are now concentrated on the individual(个体) partner. If you feel 24 hours per day are not enough, it is not because the day has too few hours, but because you have too many activities. The is very simple: Refuse to accept so much work. People tend to forget that one who can deal with stress well is given more work—until one day he .
Pay careful attention to the that tell you that you are under more stress than you can handle. They may come from various areas of life. You weak, or your work efficiency decreases. If you have any of these symptoms, change your life goals and reduce some work.

Dear son,
The day that you see me old and I am already not in good health, have patience and try to understand me.
If I get dirty when eating, if I can not dress, have patience and remember the hours I teaching it to you. If, when I speak to you, I the same things thousand and one times, do not me, listen to me. When you were small, I had to read to you thousand and one times the same story you got to sleep. When I do not want to have a , neither shame me nor scold me. Remember when I had to chase you with thousand excuses I , in order that you wanted to bathe. When you see my little about new technologies, give me the necessary time and do not look at me with your mocking (嘲弄) smile. I taught you to do so many things: to eat good, to dress well, to confront life….When at some moment I lose the memory or the of conversation, let me have the necessary time to remember, and if I can not do it, do not become nervous, as the most important thing is not our conversation but surely to be with you and to have you to me.
If ever I do not want to eat, do not force me. I know well I need to and when not. When my legs do not allow me to walk, give me your , the same way I did when you gave your first . And when someday I say to you that I do not want to any more — that I want to rest forever, do not get angry. Someday you will understand.
Try to understand that my age is not lived but survived. Some day you will discover that, my mistakes, I always wanted the thing for you and that I tried to prepare the way for you. You must not feel sad, angry or impotent (无奈) for seeing me you. You must be next to me, try to understand me and to help me as I did it when you living. Help me to walk, help me to end my way with love and . I will pay you by a smile and by the immense love I have had always for you.
I love you, Son.

There was once a group of young people searching everywhere for happiness but what they got was only annoyance, grief and misery.
So they Socrates for advice on where happiness But giving any answers, Socrates asked them to help with building a first. The group of guys had to the task, laying aside their own business of seeking happiness. It took them a long time to cut down a tall tree, gouging out (挖空) the center. Through painstaking effort, they made a canoe out of the tree. They launched the canoe into a river, and then together in it, singing with .
Socrates asked, “My children, do you have happiness now?” They answered in chorus: “We be happier!” Socrates , “That’s it! you are too busy pursuing something to notice anything bitter, happiness will occur.”
From the story I got to know that happiness hides behind every tiny thing that you are involved in, and that you may only get pleasure through work and creativity.
We may have to pain in our daily life and in the process of happiness. Sometimes we tend to look for happiness in things, like a new car, clothes, etc. True long term happiness, however, comes from within our and spirit. So why not turn suffering into life, and tears into the light in your heart? Only in this way can we make it through and find true happiness.
So my dear friends, just remember happiness is a state of mind and a matter of , and I you all a life of happiness.

Have you ever not wanted to do something so badly? Well,that’s how I about joining Madcaps,a mothers and daughters’club assisting charity. ,my feeling changed finally. Now I believe if you adopt an attitude.you might just enjoying it.
Six months ago,my mom told me the club asked us to work as at Saint Vincent de Paul Homeless shelter.That meant I had to in the dirty homeless shelter for at least 20 hours.
The first lime we went there,a lady led us to the kitchen where we my five fellow Madcaps classmates- they also wore the same mark .Since I′m usually awkward, I had never talked with any of them .Worse still,my mom was asked to help outside the kitchen,leaving me totally to serve food with them. Soon large numbers of homeless families in like rushing river.A little girl,around 5 years old,walked up to me I her a sandwich. She took it and joined her family quickly.As she walked away, I she was wearing a coat.Clearly too big for her, hanging on her thin body, and couldn’t help thinking how much I had with her.It suddenly struck me that how I am.
After that moment I had a of heart Now I love Madcaps and don’t miss one meeting I have awkwardness when communicating and have many friends. And this year I am sure I will do more than the 20 hours of charity.
So that is how I have made a by doing one thing I do not want to do .If you have an open about things you can accomplish more and become a well-rounded(全面的)person.

In 1947 — after seven long years of rejections! - He got a tiny company in New York, the Haloid Company, to the rights to his invention. Haloid became Xerox Corporation we know today.
Character cannot be in ease and quiet. Only experiences of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success . You gain strength, experience and confidence by every experience you really stop to look fear in the face.... You must do the thing you cannot do. And remember, the finest steel gets sent through the hottest furnace(熔炉). A is not one who never fails, but one who NEVER QUITS!

One day I decided to quit.I quitted my job, my relationship, my spirituality. I wanted to quit my life.
I went to the to have one last talk with God. "Can you give me one good not to quit?" His answer surprised me.
"Look around. Do you see the fern(蕨类植物) and the bamboo? When I planted their seeds, I took good care of them.The fern quickly grew from the earth. nothing came from the bamboo seed. During the following three years, the fern grew more plentiful. And , nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo. Then in the fifth year a sprout(新芽) emerged from the earth. Compared to the fern it was small and insignificant. But just 6 months later the bamboo to over 100 feet tall. It had spent the five years growing . Those roots made it strong and gave it it needed to survive. I wouldn’t give any of my creations a challenge it could not .”
He said to me. "All this time you have been struggling, you have been growing roots. I would not quit on the bamboo. will I ever quit on you. Don't yourself with others.The bamboo had a different from the fern. Yet they both make the forest beautiful. Your time will . You will rise high! "
"How high should I rise?" I asked.
"How high will the bamboo rise?" He asked .
"As high as it can?" I .
"Yes," He said. "Give me glory rising as high as you can."
I left the forest and bring back this story. I hope it can help you see that God will never on you. Never regret a day in your life. Good days give you happiness. Bad days give you . Both are necessary to life.
