What kind of life do you seek for? One that is frustrating and full of complaints every day? Or one that is filled with thankfulness, gratefulness and a positive mind?

The moment we open our eyes each day, we should be grateful that we are still alive．We are given a brand-new day．We are given another day to love．We are given another day of hope．We are given another chance to do whatever we have failed to accomplish．Those who have chosen to leave this place do not have any second chance．

We should be grateful every day．By being grateful, we will treasure the things around us．We will learn to appreciate life in a better way．Treat others better and find ourselves in a better mood every day．When we are thankful and grateful for the things we have, the universe tends to give us more．

By being thankful and grateful for our personal health, we will focus our attention on it and we would want to have a better well-being for our health．We will want to eat healthier food to nourish our body．After all, the body is the temple of our soul．We have to treat it well so that it can carry us a longer journey in life．

When we face problems in life, be thankful and grateful too．They are designed specifically for us so that we will be stronger and wiser．We are like a strong oak tree, facing the harsh weathers time to time．After each storm, we will grow stronger and strengthen our foundations for the next harsh weather．

The year 2010 has come to an end．Have you achieved what you aimed for in the past year? Be grateful for those you have achieved and especially for those you have not—both successes and failures．Failures and mistakes will give you valuable lessons．So, pick yourself up and try again this year．Good luck！

If you want your life to stand for peace and kindness, it’s helpful to do kind, peaceful things. One of my 16ways to do this is by developing my own 17 actions. These little acts of kindness are 18  to be of service and reminders of how good it feels to be 19  and helpful.

We live in a rural area of the San Francisco Bay Area. Most of what we see is beauty and 20  .One of the exceptions to the beauty is the 21 that some people throw out of their windows as they are 22 on the rural roads. One of the few drawbacks to 23  the mountainous area is that public services, such as litter collection, are less 24  than those are closer to the city.

A helping action that I practice 25  with my two children is picking up litter in our surrounding area. We' ve become so 26  to doing this that my daughters will often say to me in exciting 27 , "There' s some litter, Daddy, stop the 28  !" And if we have time, we will often pull over and pick it up. It may seem 29  , but we actually enjoy it. We pick up litter in parks, on sidewalks, practically 30 . Once I even saw a complete stranger picking up litter close to 31  we live. He smiled at me and said, "I saw you doing it, and it seemed like a good       32."

Picking up litter is only one of an 33  supply of possible helping actions. You might like holding a door open for people, 34  lonely elderly people in nursing homes, or removing snow off someone else' s driveway. Perhaps you might 35  something that seems effortless yet helpful. It' s fun, personally rewarding, and setting a good example. Everyone wins.
