When you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health. When you get 25 , your friends will say congratulations to you. When you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. When you do something good to others, you will feel happy, 26 . All these are your happiness. If you notice 27 of them, you can see that happiness is always around you. Happiness is not the same 28 money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also be very happy ,because you have something else that can’t be bought with money .When you meet difficulties, you can say 29 you are very happy ,because you have more chance to challenge yourself .So you cannot always say you are poor and you have 30 luck.
