    Dear World:

    My son starts school today.

    It's going to be strange and new to him for a while, and I wish you would treat him gently

    You see, up to now, he's been king of the roost(小皇帝).

    He's been leader of the backyard.

    I have always been around to repair his wounds(伤口), and to comfort his feelings.

    But now—things are going to be different.

    This morning, he's going to walk down the front steps, say goodbye and start on his great adventure(冒险) that will probably include wars and sad stories.

    To live his life in the world will need love and confidence.

    So, World, I wish you would take him by his young hand and teach him the things he will have to know.

    Teach him—but gently, if you can.

    Teach him that for every bad man there is a hero; that for every enemy there is a friend.

    Teach him the wonders of books.

    Give him quiet time to watch the birds in the sky, bees in the sun, and flowers on the green hill.

    Teach him it is far better to fail than to cheat(欺骗).

    Teach him to believe his own ideas, even if everyone tells him they are wrong.

    Teach him to close his ears to groups of shouting people…and to stand and fight if he thinks he's right.

    Teach him gently World, but don't treat him too kindly, because only the test of fire makes fine steel.

    This is a big order, World, but see what you can do.

    He's such a nice little boy.

Each country has its own "art of living". For example, the word "niksen" shows how Dutch people fight stress and tiredness in a fast-paced lifestyle.

The term "niksen" comes from the Dutch word "niks"which refers to"nothing". In practice, "niksen"could be as simple as just relaxing, looking at your surroundings or listening to music- as long as it's without purpose and not done in order to achieve something. Think "simply sitting in a chair or looking out of the window,"says Ruut Veenhoven, a professor at Erasmus University who studies happiness.

"Niksen" sounds contrary to the advice that we were all given as kids. Nowadays, we're always told to stay bus y and work harder than everyone else. But "niksen" is against that attitude. It offers the chance to "deliciously do nothing", as Carolien Hamming told Time. She thinks that "niksen" is very important to staying healthy, since it's a form of men tal relaxation and healing. Just like a wild animal lying in wait for their food,"niksen" seems to be a natural state of being.

For some people,"niksen" can mean more than just men tal relaxation. It's also a way to imagine new ideas or plans. As an early adopter of "niksen", Jenny Holden, adds it to her daily lunch breaks."Within 10minutes of doing nothing-just staring and listening to myself-my head began to clear and pick out my work and home to-do lists", she told the Metro UK. However, for many, doing nothing isn't as simple as it sounds.In fact, it can be somewhat challenging to sit still and stare out a window.

Above all, "niksen" is a suggestion for balancing work and rest. As Dutch-bom writer Ogla Mecking wrote in Whoolly Magazine,"niksen" is the full enjoyment of life's breaks".

Everyone is encouraged to have your "niksen" moments. They give you the strength to face everyday challenges.

Anger is a kind of feeling. Many things can make you angry. When your teacher gives you too much homework, when your team loses an important game or when a friend borrows your favourite thing and then breaks it, you may get really angry. 

Usually, your body will tell you when you are angry. For example, you breathe faster, your face turns red, and you may want to break something or hit someone, but sometimes, you hide your anger. For example, you may hide it in your heart. The problem is that if you do this, you may get a headache or your stomach may hurt. 

In fact, it's not good to hide your anger, and it's normal for you to get angry sometimes. But anger must be let out in the right way, without hurting others or yourself. 

When you get angry, you can talk with other people about it. It's helpful to talk about your anger with an adult, like a parent or a teacher. When you talk about anger, those bad feelings can start to go away. Here are some other things you can do when you start to feel angry: talk with a good friend; count from 1 to 100; get a hug from someone; go for a bike ride; think about good things and so on. 

Remember that how you act when you are angry can make things better or worse. Choose a good way to deal with your anger, and don't let your anger control you.
