Happiness is like a pebble1(卵石) dropped into a pool to set in motion an ever-widening circle of ripples2. As Stevenson has said, being happy is a duty.
There is no exact definition of the word happiness. Happy people are happy for all sorts of reasons. The key is not wealth or physical well-being3, since we find beggars, invalids4 and so-called failures, who are extremely happy.
Being happy is a sort of unexpected dividend(红利,股息). But staying happy is an accomplishment5, a triumph of soul and character. It is not selfish to strive for it. It is, indeed, a duty to ourselves and others.
Being unhappy is like an infectious disease. It causes people to shrink away from the sufferer. He soon finds himself alone, miserable6 and embittered7. There is, however, a cure so simple as to seem, at first glance, ridiculous; if you don't feel happy, pretend to be!
It works. Before long you will find that instead of repelling8(击退,抵制) people, you attract them. You discover how deeply rewarding it is to be the center of wider and wider circles of good will.
Then the make-believe becomes a reality. You possess the secret of peace of mind, and can forget yourself in being of service to others.
Being happy, once it is realized as a duty and established as a habit, opens doors into unimaginable gardens thronged9 with grateful friends.

However mean your life is,meet it and live it ;do not shun it and call it hard names.It is not so bad as you are.It looks poorest when you are richest.The fault-finder will find faults in paradise.Love your life,poor as it is.You may perhaps have some pleasant,thrilling,glorious hourss,even in a poor-house.The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man's abode;the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there,and have as cheering thoughts,as in a palace.The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.May be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving.Most think that they are above being supported by the town;but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means.which should be more disreputable.Cultivate poverty like a garden herb,like sage.Do not trouble yourself much to get new things,whether clothes or friends,Turn the old,return to them.Things do not change;we change.Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.

It was the golden season. I could see the yellow leaves falling with the cool wind. For others, itis a harvest season, while for me, it is an annoying season. I was preparing for thePostgraduate Entrance Examination. But so many unhappy things made me so tired, so Idecided to have a walk along the Yanjiang Road in my university.
“Autumn is a lonely season and life is uninteresting. The days in this season always get medown”, I thought when the sound of a guitar flowed into my ears, like a stream flowing fromthe mountains. I was so surprised that I ran to see what it was. A young girl, sitting on thelawn, was lost in playing her guitar. She was a beautiful girl, especially when the wind blewher long hair. I had never seen her before. The music was so attractive that I listened quietly.
Lost in the music, I did not realize that I had been standing for so long. But my existencedid not seem to disturb her. Leaves were still falling. Every day when I passed by the lawn, Iwould see her playing her guitar. She was the only performer and I was the only audience.During the rest of the days in the season, life became interesting and I could review the coursescarefully. Though we did not know each other, I thought we were always good friends.
Autumn was nearly over. One day, when I was listening devotedly, the sound suddenlystopped. To my astonishment, the girl came over to me.
“You must like the music,” she said.
“Yes, you play very well. Why did you stop?” I asked.
Suddenly, a sad expression appeared on her face.
“I came here just to have a rest because I failed in the college entrance examination. I feltvery disappointed. And it was your listening every day that encouraged me,” she said, “and Ihave to go tomorrow.”
“In fact, it was your playing that gave me a meaningful autumn and helped me believe thatI have the ability to pass the Postgraduate Entrance Examination.” I answered, “I think it wasGod who gave us the chance to know each other and we should be good friends.”
She smiled and I smiled.
Since then, I have never seen her again. I no longer passed by that lawn. Only thick leaveswere left behind. But I will always remember the season and the girl. It was her appearancethat helped me passed the Postgraduate Entrance Examination, though she only appeared a fewdays in my life.
We may encounter many people in our lives. Some are like a shooting star, but give off somuch light that they guide you in the correct direction; some are like clothes to you, they arealways with you, but do not understand you. Just as a famous saying, many people step inyour life, but only true friends leave footprints.
I shall always recall the autumn, the girl and the sound of her guitar. I know she willalways be my best friend.
