On Happyness(1) It may be the oldest cliche in town. People from home and abroad, in ancient times and today, have talked about this issue, but it remains a hot topic among all the people in the world, rich or poor, great or ordinary.It is a topic will never be out of fashion. The charming of Happyness lies in its abstract and elusive feature. What is on earth happyness is? It is the most difficult as well as the most simple question in the world, because everyone can say something about it according to their own experience, but the answers vary from person to person, and usually one person will give different answers in different life stage. some people have revealed that the true meaning of life lies in the love between families, friendship ,love and orther human affections.They remind people of paying attention to these human affections and not only pursuing the fame and wealth. All that is foolproof, however, few people can really take this into consideration and began to feel happy. People or human mind is so complicated that it is not easy to satisfy their needs, especially spiritual needs. people who are in grinding poverty think the man with wealth is happy: people who are in pursuit of dream believe the one who has realized his dream is happy. However, the truth is that happyness is not so close to the latter. For example, I' m the one who are struggling in life and I admire some of my classmates who seem to have a promising prospect, but one day ,one of them actually told me she is in depertate.At that moment I feel puzzeled and think she does not cherish her prsent life, and If she had experienced what I am suffering ,she would feel grateful for life who gives her so much. But later,at second thought, I think maybe everyone,whoever they are, has his own agony. Some one asked me; what do you think the feeling of satisfaction is? I blurted out: satisfaction is seeing the sunlight reflected from a drop of water!

Books and Me (4) I love books not only because of the knowledge and help they can provide. I am a traditional and emotional girl who always pay attention to the spiritual aspect of life or feelings, so I often ponder over life and want to satisfy my spiritual needs. However,to be honest, I never give up the pursuit of wealth and fame, and I still can not become a recluse with pure heart and few desire. I try my best to creat a comfortable martial condition for myself, but it dose not mean that I will ahieve this goal at any price. Because I think material conditions are the preparetions for spiritual satisfactions. I am an ordinary girl, so I don't have more- than- body ideas and distain the material pursuit.Just as most people in the world, I always worry about the matter of subsistance. Nevertheless, martials itself is not the end of life. I want to pursue material life that can make me better enjoy the true life. This is my attitude towards life, and the same is true of books. I read books not only because I want to gain knowlege, but also the spiritul enjoyment. An image of a girl reading in the sunshine with relaxion always lies in my mind. How romantic it is!

Books and Me (3) I passed the hard time with varius books. Maybe because I am a litthle emotional, I am easily moved and affected by surrounding things and people as well as descriptions in books. The protagnists' heroic deeds, in which their determination and persistence are displayed make me feel hopeful and encouraged, And I tell myself '' you are not the most unlucky one in the world". Just as expected, I got out of the depression,and entered into the university. I started the new life but the old memoris are always in my mind as well as the precious books. Although I didn't obtain much tetbook-knowledge from these books that are not masterpieces or knowlege-based,and they are only some novels and magazinea, I think they made me relieved from sufferings and broaden my horizion.

Books and me(2) Several years ago, I encountered the difficulties of life. I was depressed and frustrated. Maybe I was too young to deal with the hardships at that time, so I chose a negtive way to face the life. Paints and worries haunted my heart.Eevry morning,the first thing I did was to encourage myself to be optimistic, but all was done in vain. I really didn't know how to deal with the life,only to indulge myself in the suffering. Until one day,I surprisingly found that I was relieved by reading a book. When I was reading, I could forget all the worries and paints. The most important thing was that I could get courage to face the hardships. And I felt that there was hope in life.

Books and I (1) With the development of society,more and more people are partial to looking through the internet to get information,and reading e-book, which result in more comments about replacing paper books with e-book. Although I often use the computer and recognize its advantages, I still stick to my habit of reading paper books. In my opion, e-book is just like the fast food,and paper book is delicious dinner. The fast food can meet your immediat needs-make you not to be hungry,but it can not provide you with enough nutrition. When I was a child, I often read books,including fairy tales,books only for children,and even some magzines.My mother said that I would pick up a piece of paper with words to look through. I still remeber that everytime I paid a visit to one of my friends, she often hided her interseting books, because I would often be absorbed in the books rather than playing with her.
