Look Around for Simple Joys
I was going to work on a small island. I heard the sound of the boat workers telling people to 1 and get on board. As always, I was running late and I wasn't 2 if I would get on the boat on time. 3, I was able to catch the boat and start my trip.
It was just one of those days when things were not going 4 for me. So when I got on the boat, I sat in a corner of the boat 5 my backpack next to me. I wanted to be 6 and I didn't want anyone to talk to me.
Thinking quietly to 7, I looked up at the sky. All of a sudden, I saw some 8 that looked like they were giving me a "thumbs (大拇指）up".
It looked 9 perfect that I couldn't help smiling. Seeing the 10 of the clouds made me feel relaxed and calm. It seemed to tell me that 11 was going to be all right.
Life is not 12 perfect. We might be surprised by the bad things that happen to us. Sometimes, things feel 13, while at other times, it feels like you have it all. We should learn to 14 it all in, stop for a while and appreciate what we have, 15 it's something big or something small.
Remember to smile and look up at the sky. You never know when you might see something that brightens (照亮）your day.
