Garden of the autumn breeze

what's happiness?
what do you think about happiness?what's your happiness?Some people think that happiness is when they have a lot of money,gold,is when they are the richest people...It is said that money can buy all of thing apart of happiness.on the other hand, happiness is more simple than that they think.it is not a destination; it is a method of life.It is a state of mind or feeling characterized by contentment, love, satisfaction, pleasure, or joy.Happiness is only when you passed the exam,when you read a good book listen a good sing, when you when you back home and have a cool meal,when you have a true love,when you are everybody love and take care, when you are heard ''thanks'' from other people.Happiness means you have some one to love ,work to do and a clear conscience. ....Happiness will never come to those who fail to appreciate what they already have.happiness is all of thing you have so you must realize and respect it.Remember, happiness doesn't depend upon who you are or what you have, it depends solely upon what you think. so,you can create your own happiness by really listening to the people around you and connecting with them,saying thank you,quiting judging every situation and person,assuming the best instead of assuming the worst,or helping someone else and remember if it is always "someone else’s fault", there is little you can do to change the situation, regain your power and happiness by thinking of ways you can change and improve the situation and many many other ways.Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony. Life is so full of beauty and adventure and possibility. Don’t get stuck waiting for happiness. ''If you want happiness for an hour -- take a nap. If you want happiness for a day -- go fishing. If you want happiness for a month -- get married. If you want happiness for a year -- inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime -- help someone else''.

Song : When you believe...
By : Mariah Carey & Whitney Houston.

Many nights we pray, with no proof anyone could hear
In our heart’s a hopeful song, we barely understood
Now we are not afraid, although we know there’s much to fear
We were moving mountains long before we knew we could
There can be miracles, when you believe
Though hope frail, it’s hard to kill
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
When you believe, somehow you will…
You will when you believe, easy to despair,
When all you hear is fear and lies, easy just to run and hide,
Too frightened to begin, but if we dare to dare
Don’t wait for answers from the skies
Each of us can look inside, and hear this song within
There can be miracles, when you believe
Though hope frail, it’s hard to kill
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
When you believe, somehow you will…
You will when you believe
They don’t always happen when you ask, and it’s easy to give in to your fear
But when you’re blinded by your faith, can’t see your way clear through the rain
A small but still resilient voice, says hope is very near
(There can be miracles, when you believe)
Though hope is frail, it’s hard to kill
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
When you believe, somehow you will…
(Now you will)
And now you will, you will when you believe !!!

Anyone of us has also been experiencing disappointment of the failure, anyone of us also had moments endured overwhelming pessimism in the soul. And anyone of us has ever tasted the loneliness, the depression... But there was little anyone could overcome that pessimistic towards tomorrow, there were a few people could stand on their feet themself, believe in themself, towards a bright future before the eye ... Life is not just all pink, all are just happy that there are also many troubles awaits you ahead. But you just have faith, believe in myself, the light will come tomorrow after the morning full of stormy wind and cold. When you believe, whether it is the fragile hope, but it will exist powerful than ever and unlikely to fade. It's easy to surrender to fear, and it’s simple to make you be blinded by your faith. How can people know that they can overcome the high mountains, long rivers and the powerful storms which can wash away everything away. But all will be pass over quickly when you have confidence that you will overcome. In the moments between hope and hopeless, the trust as the candle lit up the miracle lights. Trust can help you win the fears, the weakness are standing in your mind. the more wonderful is that, it helps you do wonderful things that the pessimistic people and the easily discouraged people can't do. That miracle, not anyone else that's you bring to. If you do not know where is the beginning of your success, when is the time you can do what you want, then that is the time you learn and know to believe that you could do ... .... lost confidence is lost all! Believe in yourself and believe in everyboby to see that happiness and joy will come to us - those who are continuously trust and effort.
“ You will when you believe…”

A bell is no bell till you ring it
A song is no song till you sing it
And love in your heart wasn't put there to stay
Love isn't love till you give it away.
- Ostar Hammerstein 2-

It's so difficult to define love because each of us has a different conception of love as well as how to express love. Ostar Hammerstein 2 said that love which is not given away is like a bell not rung, a song not sung. That isn't love.
What do you think about that? To me, reading these sentences, i find that it is a peace of advice to realise that when you love someone, be not shy to express. Loving deeply and passionately, you might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely and you will regret. Moreover, in our life silence is sometimes the best answer but it can kill love.So say everything your heart want to say, do something to give expresstion your love to everyone you love. That is just love.

I have read a very meaningful sentence in the Third Asian Indoor games's book for volunteer of my sister. I want to share with you about it. It said that " nothing is stronger than the heart of Vonlunteer". when reading this sentence, what is your feeling and thought? For me, I am a liitle bit curious and surprised why are the vonlunteers' heart so important like that. The reason is that I have not had opportunity to take part in any vonlunteering activities before. In the next summer, I have an intention of attending " Green Summer" to understand more about it. You know, Vonlunteers appear in many places in The world in general and Vietnam in particular, especially in rural and mountainous areas where the living standard of people is still very low. They will go there to teach for children and clean the street or help the old and handicrapped. Vonlunteers make a great contribution in the task of reduction poverty and illiteracy of Vietnam. Their kind heart brings smile and joy for a lot of peole. Therfore, That sentece make me change my job decision after graduating. At first, I desire to be applied in a foreign company that can bring me a stable job and opportunity to speak English or japanese. Now my wish is to work in the non- governmental organizations to contribute my small strength to the unlucky peaple in the society.

The bear family bought a new house and furniture to go in it. They were so proud and pleased. Papa Bear, Mama Bear, and Baby Bear had everything just the way they wanted it.
They invited their friend, the little girl to come see their new house and to share their breakfast of porridge and honey. They asked her to come Saturday morning at 9:00 A.M.
The little found a note on the door when she got there. In the note, the bear wrote that they had gone out for a few minutes and that the little girl should go in and look around. They said: “ Make yourself at home ”.
The little went in. She saw porridge cooling on the dining room table but she did not eat any. She saw new chairs in the living room bit she did not sit on them. She saw new beds in the bedrooms but she did not lie on them.
Her tour completed, the little girl went out to the patio and sat in the shade. Soon she fell asleep.
After awhile, the bear family returned home. They gently woke up the little girl. All went in to the breakfast. As they ate their porridge and honey together, they had a nice chat about the new house and furniture and about other things happening in the neighborhood.


The story’s title is “ The Little Girl and the Bears ”. This tittle probably makes you think of a similar story you have heard or read. We can’t tell who the writer is. The story is anonymous, that is, without any name acknowledged as that of the author. However, the fort of the story was first used by James Thurber in “ The Little Girl an the Wolf ”. In this story there are four parts: (1) the bears’ getting a new house and furniture; (2) the bears inviting the little girl to come visit and her getting there and finding the note; (3) the little girl’s touring the new house but not touching anything; and (4) the bears’ returning, awakening the little girl, and all going in for breakfast and a chat. There are also four characters: There is the family – mother, father and baby. They seem settled down and very friendly, trusting and gentle. There is the little girl. She seems very polite and also honest and not meddlesome. The story took place at the bears’ house. Most of the action started Saturday morning at nine o’clock. The emotional atmosphere was friendly, trusting and considerate. I think people are less violent and more friendly than they used to be. Also. They don’t as often take things or use things that don’t belong to them. You probably need to remember the lack of respect for others’ property and hostility in the childhood story, “ Goldilocks and the Three Bears ”, to really grasp this deeper meaning about how people have changed in their attitudes toward, and their relationships with, other people.
