Have you ever complained about why life is so tiring? Does the sky sometimes seem dark to you? Are your studies sometimes not successful? Well, friends, cheer up and smile all the time. If you see the world with your warm heart, you’ll find that the whole world smiles to you.
While in school, sometimes you are tired of your Lessons, but have you ever noticed the happy smile on your teacher's face when you did a good job?
One day it is fine. Just before you want to go out, it suddenly starts to rain Maybe you would feel very sad and start complaining about the weather.

When we face failure, we must be confident in ourselves, draw a useful lesson from it and try our best to finish what we have decided to do.
