I remember I read one weird book named ‘Sophie’s world’. It talks about a little girl is continuing get letters from a stranger, who think she is his daughter. The content of those letter mentions all kinds of philosophical stories. An impression one for me was he describe the world as hairy rabbit, everyone is living on this rabbit’s back. The clever people will hold the top of rabbit’s hair, so they could see clearly where they stand and how the hair looks like. The stupid one is living on the root of the hair, and complains it is too dark there. I could not understand it at all as a twelve years old girl. However, one sentence from this book is really carved in my heart, which is ‘any person you met at anytime is going to bring you information’. That is so true.

Today, I met a girl, who is coming from the same city as me, Beijing. She came to Sydney 5 yrs ago, and has a son at age of 4, currently working in a bakery shop as sales manager for 3 yrs. She is confident, talkative, active, and energetic. We did not speak so long, because my boss’s face turns black after 2 mins. However, during these 2 mins, I learned one biggest point I ever have, which is attitude of living. She told me she likes to speak with people, every time she visits the bank for business purpose, she speaks with the teller, customer service, manager, whoever service her. So, she builds very good relation with them. As a result, the manager of bank offers her to work for the bank as loan consultant, which is dream role for me. The opportunity comes easy for her, but for me, It still not coming yet, though I am trying so hard.  

After she leaves, I was thinking for whole night long. What is the reason for this different? Finally, I got the conclusion of attitude of living. She has a stable job, stable family, and a stable dream of having her own bakery. She is happy and satisfied what she has now. Therefore, the happiness from her heart present on her face, on her body, on the way of she dealing with people. Think about this, a person, who is complaining everything, unsatisfied with any situation, always carry a black face, will not be pleased from people. People like to be happy, shiny, lovely and bright, although you could not get it always.

Think about myself, I hate to send thousands of resume everyday but get response of ‘unfortunately ’. I hate losing money on stock market. I hate have to work long hours to get penny cash. I hate I could not win the lottery. I hate I could get a Accountant job. Ask somebody, if you contents so much hate how you could be happy. How you could make other people like you and offer you to work with them?

This is the girl brings me the information that suddenly open my mind, because I already entered a very bad circle that dissatisfaction brings complains, which create the bad impression for other people. So I am not happy, the people I met also may not happy with me.
