    The moment I fell off the horse, I knew I was going to die. I felt myself thrown violently over his head and onto the ground. I heard my bones break.

    "Help me," I cried. "Please, help me." Terrible pain in my chest and back turned my words into a whisper. "I'm alone," I thought. No one heard me. In a daze, I struggled to my feet. "You are strong," I told myself," and you can do this. "I forced myself to walk back to the farm house. Doctors told me later that I'd done all of this with seven broken bones, a bleeding lung and an injured neck.

    "Mary, I fell off 'Nate', "I phoned. "I think it's bad. I can't feel my right arm anymore. "I'd called my workmates at the hospital, knowing they would be my lifelines.

    An hour later, I lay in the hospital. I was no longer a nurse; I was a patient in my own emergency department. At that moment, I let my memory go back some four weeks.

    "OK, just jump out, "Duke commanded as I hesitated in the doorway of the plane. Today I would prove how strong I was. Today I would be a skydiver. "Let's do it!"I shouted back and I jumped.

    The shaking stop of the CT scanner interrupted my memory. I was a single mother and a strong woman who could drive a horse. The misfortunes of the past two years had taught me to stand taller.

    Months later, I returned to work to find I'd become a local legend（传奇）. The story was told and retold. One day a new employee heard the story and he asked me in surprise, "Who picked you up after you fell?"

    I felt myself take a deep breath-it was warm and alive in my chest. "Who picked me up?"A knowing smile spread across my face. "Think big, "I told him, "really big. "

    Running on the beach can certainly be a good thing  It's completely different from running on the pavement, a track or trails with soft surfaces.

    For starters, sand can be a challenge because it has an uneven（不平的）surface and constantly moves under your feet. As you push off, you're going to lose some of your push as the sand moves. So, you're not going to be able to push yourself forward as you would on a track or pavement!But this unevenness has an upside: It gives your body an extra workout, forcing you to exercise muscles that don't get as much use during runs on firm surfaces.

    You also might feel painful afterward because beaches tend to slope（倾斜）downward, toward the water. If you're going for a long run on the beach, you might notice that one side of your body-including your ankle, leg or knee-might feel more painful because you're putting more pressure on it due to the slope.

    Some beach runners tend to run barefoot. However, if you're not used to barefoot running, start slowly and run short distances at first. That's because running barefoot uses different muscles than running with shoes does, and it's important to strengthen these muscles and adapt your feet.

Despite these challenges, running on sand can be a smart choice for athletes because running on it can decrease the bad influence on your body during high-intensity workouts This could potentially lead to less muscle damage and less pain. Women had less myoglobin（肌红蛋白）— a protein that can be a sign of muscle pain-in their blood after running on the sand than they did after running on grass. This suggests running on softer ground surfaces, such as sand, may reduce muscle damage.

    For many, it is a journey that you will never give up, and the more you put in, the more you get out. While this kind of attitude may work for some, the latest scientific research suggests that it can also go wrong for many people.

    Mauss has shown that seeking happiness can also increase feelings of loneliness and disconnection, perhaps because it causes you to focus your attention on yourself and your own feelings rather than appreciating the people around you. "Self-focus might make me engage with other people less, and I might judge other people more negatively if I think they 'mess' with my happiness, "Mauss added.

    These effects don't end there. Maglio at the University of, Toronto found another way that the conscious happiness-seeking may have the opposite effect: By leading us to feel that time is slipping away. Happiness comes from something pleasant that I can enjoy right now, to something burdensome（难以承担的）that I have to keep working at over and over and over, " Maglio says.

    "If you are constantly reminded of your friend enjoying at this beautiful location or at that delicious dinner, I think that might serve as a reminder that other people are happier than you-and kick-start（强力启动）that goal of happiness again. "

    Mauss, meanwhile, points out that a lot of research has found that people who take a more "accepting" altitude to bad feelings-rather than constantly trying to fight them as the enemy--actually end up more satisfied with their life over the long-term. When you are trying to be happy, you may become judgmental and disapproving of bad things in your life. . . "For these reasons, she advises people to have a more stoic（苦修的）attitude to life's ups and downs, in which you accept bad feelings as events which last only a short time rather than trying to remove them entirely.

    Happiness really is like a shy animal. And once you stop chasing it, you might just find that it appears naturally of its own accord.
