Many years ago, my dad worked in a children's hospital.

    A girl in the hospital had a 1 illness. She couldn't move her hands or feet. She could only move her head. She 2 on bed every day and she was very sad. Even the 3 couldn't help her.

    My dad 4 to try his best to help her. He brought paints, brushes and paper to her room. He hung (挂) the paper on the wall, put the brush in his 5 and began to paint. He didn't use his hands at all. Only his head moved. My dad 6 the girl, “See, you can do anything you want to do.”

    Soon the girl began to paint using her own mouth. She and my dad became good friends. But my dad fell ill 7 that time and he had to stay at home.

    Two months later, my dad went back to the children's hospital. 8 he went into the hospital, the girl ran to him and hugged him tightly (紧紧地). She gave my dad a picture and said, “I 9 this picture with my hands. Thank you for helping me.”

    My dad would cry every time he told us this 10. He would say, “Sometimes love is more powerful (有力量的) than doctors.”

    Long long ago in a village, a farmer owned land near the sea. He always needed workers 1 him, but most people did not want to work on farms near the sea. They were afraid of the terrible storms 2often hit and destroyed buildings and plants.

    Finally, a short man came to the farmer. "Are you 3 good worker?" the farmer asked him. "Well, I can sleep when the wind blows," answered the little man. Although 4 by this answer, the farmer gave him the job, 5 he really needed help. The little man worked very 6 on the farm, and the farmer felt pleased 7 his work.

    Then one night the wind blew loudly in from the sea. Jumping out of bed, the farmer 8 to the short man's room. The farmer shouted, "Get up! A storm is coming! 9things down before they are blown away!" But the little man10 in bed lazily and said, "No sir. I told you, I can sleep when the wind blows."

    When 11 the words, the farmer hurried outside to prepare for the storm on his own. 12 his surprise, he found that 13 was tied down and nothing could 14 away. The farmer then understood 15 the short man meant, so he returned to his bed to sleep while the wind blew.

    When you're prepared, you have nothing to worry about. Can you sleep when the wind blows through your life?

    When I was a junior high school student in 1980, God gave me a gift. It was happiness.

    One weekend, I went to visit my grandparents in the countryside. On my way home, a car ran over me and cut off my arms because of its high speed.

    Several days later when I woke up at the hospital, I realized I had to spend the rest of my life 1arms. How sad I felt at that time! Even I was full of fears, but slowly I knew I had to face the fact and got over it. 1 couldn't get my arms back even though I 2 every day.

    However, it's easier 3 than done. It took me nearly half a year to get out of the sadness 4. I got so much from my past story. From then on, I could treat my life with a usual mind. But in our daily life, I often see my classmates 5 about little things: They get a bad grade on a test; their bus comes 6 ; they don't have a mobile phone but 7 have, and so on. But I only 8 life. I was lucky to realize from an accident: It is a waste of our life to pay attention to what you have 9 . We should always think of what we have. So why are so many people unhappy? Someone may say, "My whole life would improve if I have a new car." But when you get the car and what  10? For a whole week you are walking on air. Then you go right back to being unhappy.

    Happiness depends on what we have! It's in our heart. Happiness comes from knowing the art of appreciating(感激) and taking pleasure in what you really have.
