For some time, I had been thinking that I wanted to do something to make strangers smile. I decided that I {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (leave) small notes around shops and other public places with positive sayings or kind words for strangers {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (find).

    A friend on Facebook posted that she had received a lot of beautiful paper from an artist friend and was wondering what to do with it. I told her about my idea, and she {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (immediate) said that this must be what her paper was meant for.

    So two friends on opposite {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (side) of the world started leaving these random notes of kindness. I leave my notes without {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (expect) any particular result. It doesn't matter whether they are read {#blank#}6{#/blank#} thrown away. The main thing is that I did this act.

    I now carry around a notebook in {#blank#}7{#/blank#} I write down lovely and inspiring phrases that I find. And I buy packs of Post­ its to write notes on whenever I see {#blank#}8{#/blank#} opportunity to make a stranger smile. I only leave the notes when I am feeling in a {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (happily) mood, as I don't want to pass any negative energy on to someone else.

    I sign them all {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (say) that this note is left for you by a stranger to make you smile. Then, I add a heart.

    Do you Douyin？

    Got a moment – or, perhaps, 15 seconds?

    On the platform, childish and strange behaviors are {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (total) acceptable. In high-pressure world, it is no surprise that Douyin has become so successful – all you need to do is pick up your phone and open the app to relieve some stress and have {#blank#}9{#/blank#} laugh.

How the classmates responded aroused my interest. They thought I, a guy, couldn't play the nurse. But I decided I was going to be the {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (good) nurse to explode on the stage of the class. That fateful week, I imprinted the lines of the nurse in my head. On the day of the {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (perform), I walked onto the stage, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (dress) in my grandmother's Italian suit, and poured my heart and soul {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the scene. {#blank#}7{#/blank#} look of astonishment on my classmates' faces was all I needed to realize what school {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (mean) to me. School was a place {#blank#}9{#/blank#} I could explore unknown areas of my mind and uncover new ideas about the world. Perhaps this realization had never shown {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (it) before, because I never been brave enough to uncover it.
