A young man went to visit a wise man living deep in the mountain for the wisdom of life.
"Excuse me! Could you please tell me what the most 1 day in our lives is? Is it the day when we were born or the day we 2? Is it the day when we fall in love or the day we succeed?" The young man asked.
"3. The most important day in our lives is today," the wise man replied calmly.
"Why?" The young man felt more than 4, "Is it because there is a moving event taking place today?"
"No. Nothing has happened today."
"Is it because of my visit?"
"Even if nobody visited me today, today is 5 very important because today is the only wealth we have. No matter how memorable yesterday is, it has gone by like a ship going down into the sea; no matter how bright tomorrow may be, it is yet to come; but no matter how common today is, it is 6 our control.

The young man still wanted to ask something, while the .wise man 7 him and said, "When we are talking about the meaning of today, we have 8 a lot of it."
The young man nodded and then went down the mountain.

What can little money do? It's worth thinking it over.
A few weeks ago, I got $120 from a friend in a Smile Group. He asked me to do good things with the money. Since then I have used the money to help strangers, and raised a lot of smiles.
One day I was in a shop, looking at the second-hand books. It happened that the book shelves (架子) were next to the toy shelf. I noticed that a poorly dressed woman standing behind me. A girl about 3 years old came over to the toy shelf. At once her attention was caught by a toy dog. She spoke to her mother and her mother asked the shop owner how much it cost. The answer was $ 3. Then she said “no”. The child said nothing. Maybe "no" was not new for her, but she couldn't keep the disappointment away from her face.
I had a total of $ 5. I put the money in the mother's hand and said, "Buy her a book, too." I didn't wait to see the end. I walked out of the shop.
The money the friend gave me was to help me find happiness in the world. Was there any better way to get so much happiness with so little money?
