Yesterday，I drove my 23-year-old daughter to the nearby counseling center，to attempt once again to complete the treatment. I did my best to encourage and give her inspiring support as she was feeling anxious of the whole process.
While we were waiting，just minutes before the center opened their door，a young girl the same age as my daughter，came in. She had a beautiful smile I remember，and spoke of her desire to make a difference for others like my daughter from a11 she learned through her past drug abuse. I felt that she was sincere in her desire. It had been two weeks since her stopping the use of drugs.
My daughter was standing next to me and focused on doing her best to stay calm on the outside，while inside she was feeling quite anxious，so she barely noticed what this girl was saying. Yet，she did manage to open up and talk with her a bit about the noisy ceiling fan in the hall where we were waiting.
Next Friday，it will be a new opportunity for my daughter to try once again，as well as the possibility of being there for this young girl，too. I continue the example ot sell-love for my daughter，strengthening this skill，while encouraging my daughter’s positive changes.
I noticed yesterday，my daughter called her friends，“I am a strong woman!”This made me smile，as a sudden gift to me from when I had been speaking to her enthusiastically about how we are strong women，trying our best，and we overcome and win through our life challenges. Let her know I believe in her. While she was focused on the physical，in that moment，I think she was likely feeling strength in all ways，too. I hope so.

3.There are many little pleasures you can add to your life, such as tea, a warm bath, a walk in the park and so on. As long as you enjoy them, they can really brighten your every day. Laughter is also part of having a good day. That’s why it’s important to do what you can to create joy for you.4.After all, if you are humorous, you can more easily center on fun things.
If you don’t have much time, one way can be used during a stressful day. 5.You should achieve this by making your plan flexible and checking that everything in your plan is necessary. Being busy is okay, but wasting time and energy on too many unnecessary things can just lead to stress.
