Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men.
不要祈祷舒适的生活，而是祈祷自己能变得更强大。
It seems this quotation is from John Kennedy, one of the greatest and most famous presidents of the United States.
Why did he obtain so high rates as a president?
Checking those events in his time, we would find his term of office was basically marked by high tensions with the Soviet Union in the Cold War.
And the most well-known, may be the Cuban Missile Crisis, which nearly resulted in the breakout of a global thermonuclear conflict.
At that time, the Soviet Union was at its peak and won many of the conflicts over the United States, but the United States, had been entangled in both international and domestic affairs and had to conduct stategic concentrations.
In such unfavourable conditions, Mr. Kennedy wasn't frightened and didn't choose to surrender to his rival but choose to face up the challenges bravely and took some new measures, which laid the foundation for the later victory.
Therefore, it is better to pray to be stronger than to pary for easy lives.
Remember, life doesn't become easier, it is you, you become stronger.
The best way to cheer yourself is to try to cheer someone else up.
让自己开心起来的最好的方法，是试着让别人开心。
From Mark Twain.
Living in this busy and stressful world, to keep yourself cheerful is very important.
Though somebody tells us that if we can follow our own hearts, it would be much easier to become happy and satisfied about life.
That is not true, just because most of us can't make clear what we really want and where our hearts will lead us to.
For the majority, the best way to be cheerful may be to win other's approval.
Sometimes, a simple affirmation or apprreciation may make us full of energy again.
We don't live for ourselves, we always need to get some kind of affirmation or rewards of our payments.
Now, you know what I mean, I need approval and rewards.
Can I get some, otherwise I think I may gradually lose the reasons to insist on doing such stupid things.
