Books, self improvement, optimism There are a lot of books in different languages, on different subjects, for completely different types of people and of different nationalities. Some of them could move a reader to tears, some of them on the contrary make him happy, and some of them even captivate person so much, that it can provoke him to feel zazazu. There are books so touching that few can read them without being moved to tears. These books can refine our souls, are helping to reveal humanity in each person, to perceive and touch all the colours of our world without travelling, they are helping to realize that we’re «drops in the rain, just numbers not the names», but it could really be the factor making/forcing/allowing us to perfect ourselves, to go ahead, to dream, to set goals and to achieve them. One of my favourite children's books is «Pollyanna» by Eleanor H. Porte. Pollyanna has her own philosophy of life centers on what she calls "The Glad Game", an optimistic attitude she learned from her father. The game consists of finding something to be glad about in every single situation. And I can't but agree with her philosophy. If you look for the good in the world while expecting to find it, you surely will. P. S Не жалуйтесь, если в вашей жизни что-то идет не так, возможно это просто начинает исполняться ваша заветная мечта. Ну, а кто там ее знает, каким именно образом она должна воплотиться в жизнь? Возможно, ваши временные неудачи и есть самый правильный путь?
