"Will you come with us，Susan？"cried several girls．"We are going to the woods，do come，too．"
"I should like to go with you，"replied Susan，"but I can't finish the task Grandmother set me to do．"
"How boring it must be to stay at home to work on a holiday！"said one of them，shaking her head．"Susan's grandmother is too strict．"
At this，Susan lowered her head，wiped away a tear，and thought of the pleasant afternoon the girls would spend gathering wild flowers．
Soon she said to herself，"What harm can there be in moving the mark Grandmother put？The woods must be beautiful today，and how I should like to be there！"
"Grandmother，"said she，a few minutes afterwards，"I'm ready now．"
"What，so soon，Susan？"Her grandmother took the work，and looked at it very closely．
"True，Susan，"said she，"true，I have counted it，and，as you've never deceived（欺骗）me，you may go and enjoy yourself．"
Susan's face turned red，and she did not say"thank you"．As she left，she walked slowly away，not singing as usual．

"It's nothing．"As Susan replied，she felt she was trying to deceive herself．

"It will be easy enough to make the crown．but not so easy to decide who is to wear it，"said Julia．
"Why，Susan is to wear it，of course，"said Rose，"is she not said to be the best girl in school and the most obedient（顺从的） at home？"
"Yes，yes，the crown shall be for Susan，"cried the other girls．
"Now，Susan，"said Rose，"put it on in a very careful way，for you are to be our queen．"
The crown was placed on Susan's head．But in a moment，she snatched it off，threw it on the ground and said，"No crown for me；I do not deserve（值得）it．"
The girls looked at her with surprise，"I have deceived my grandmother，"said she，while tears flowed down her cheeks．
"Do you think that bad？"asked one of the girls．
"I'm sure it is and I have been miserable all the time I have been here．"
Susan ran home，as soon as she saw Grandmother，she cried，" O Grandmother！I should be punished，for I moved the mark．Do forgive me；I am very sorry and unhappy．"
"Susan，"said her grandmother，"I knew it all the time，but I let you go out，hoping that you can realize your fault．I am so glad that you have confessed your fault．"
"When shall I be your own little girl again？"

Don't Let Anxiety Hold You Back from Living Your Dreams
Anxiety is the state of feeling nervous，worried or fearful．When you're anxious，you may feel something bad is going to happen．
When you think of starting a new project or going into a group situation with people you don't know，do you feel butterflies in your stomach？Do you come up with lots of reasons not to do fun but risky things like joining a hiking club or a volunteer organization？ If these happen，it shows that you are probably anxious，and your anxiety will stop you from going after your dreams．Actually，anxiety feeds on avoidance and makes you less confident，while getting started and taking action help your anxiety go down．But where do you begin？
These suggestions below will let you be the master of your anxiety，rather than letting it master you．
◆ Don't wait for your anxiety to go down
Your anxiety won't go down on its own．However，when you take action towards your goals instead of considering what anxiety you have，you will build self﹣efficacy（自我效能）little by little﹣you begin to see yourself as someone who can take action and be successful even when you're feeling anxious．
◆ Set a realistic goal that makes sense for you
We all have different personalities and preferences．We don't all want to be lawyers，have hundreds of friends，or run marathons．Whatever you want，just figure out what is the simplest thing you can do to get started．Set your goal specifically，for example，"walk for 20 minutes three times next week"．You can't climb a mountain all at once and you're more likely to achieve your goal with inside motivation（动机）than when you're just trying to please others．
◆ Trust the process（过程）
Faith（信仰）is the first step to take action．Even if you don't have faith to begin with，faith will come if you just take that first step．The more you take action，the more likely you are to have some successes and begin to trust the process．I often start writing a blog post not knowing exactly what I 'm going to write．Now I've understood that if I share messages with my readers sincerely，then the content will appear naturally and anxiety will reduce slowly．
