[00:00.43]易考范文二十一
[00:03.71]What is happiness?
[00:06.98]This is an age-old question that has been puzzling people from all walks of life.
[00:12.89]Although different people has different opinions about it,
[00:16.40]we all agree that it is such a precious thing
[00:19.78]that cannot be bought by money or anything else.
[00:23.18]And despite many scientific studies carried out on happiness,
[00:27.65]no really effective way to gain happiness has yet been found and introduced.
[00:33.67]Everyone wants to live a happy life and to find happiness at every turn.
[00:39.14]But what should we do then?
[00:41.55]My answer is we should do something rather than wait passively 1.
[00:47.02]Sages told us hundreds of years ago that when we give,
[00:51.40]we are far happier than when we receive.
[00:54.57]That means we are responsible for other people's happiness
[00:58.62]and we should take the initiative 2 in securing 3 happiness.
[01:02.33]We always have to be ready to give a hand to people in need.
[01:06.49]We should form a supportive network with people around us.
[01:10.76]Only in this way are we able to find true life-time happiness.
[01:15.57]Happiness is all around us in our daily life.
[01:19.07]All we have to do is make an effort to be happy and to make others happy.
[01:24.54]So don't hesitate to focus on other people's happiness,
[01:28.70]in other words, value the pursuit 4 of happiness for ourselves and for others.
[01:33.95]Remember: “Life is what you make it. So make it happy.”
