I could not find a satisfying job and I found this especially difficult as I had a lot of experience and a Masters degree. To my shame I was driving a school bus to make ends meetand living with friends. I had been through five interviews with a company and one day between bus runs they called to say I did not get the job. Later that afternoon, while doing my roundsthrough a quiet neighborhood I had an internalwave like a scream- come up from deep inside me and I thought “Why has my life become so hard?” Immediately after this internal scream I pulled the bus over to drop off a little girl and as she passed she handed me an earring saying I should keep it in case somebody looked for it. The earring was stamped with words BE HAPPY. At first I got angry. Then it hit me. I had been putting all of my energies into what was wrong with my life rather than what was right! I decided then and there to make a list of 50 things I was thankful to. At first it was hard, and then it got easier. One day I decided to up it to 75. That night there was a phone call for me, asking if I would do a one-day training for 200 hospital workers. I said yes and got the job. My day with the hospital workers went very well. I got a standing welcome and many more days of work. To this day I KNOW that it was because I changed my attitudeto gratitude. By chance, the day after I found the earring the girl asked me if anyone had looked for it. I told her no and she said “I guess it was meant for you then.” I spent the next year doing training workshops all around the Seattle area and then decided to risk everything and go back to Scotland where I had lived before. I closed my one man business and bought a plane ticket One month later I met my wonderful English wife and best friend of 15 years now. We live in a small beautiful house in Scotland.

C American people like to say “Thank you” when others help them or say something kind to them. People of many countries do so, too. It is a very good habit(习惯). You should say “Thank you” when someone passes you the salt on the table, when someone walking ahead of you keeps the door open for you, when someone says you have done your work well, or you have bought a nice thing, or your city is very beautiful. “Thank you” is used not only between friends, but also between parents and children, brothers and sisters. “Excuse me” is another short sentence they use. When you hear someone say so behind you, you know that somebody wants to walk past you without touching you. Its not polite to break others when they are talking. If you want to speak to one of them, say, “Excuse me” first, and then begin talking. You should also do so when you begin to cough (咳嗽) or make any noise before others.
