Hello everyone~
I’m Chani who wants to start but dosen’t working out! Exercise has only positive effects on the body and mind (☝︎ ՞ਊ ՞)☝︎ For example, sweat-perspiration from exercise increases immune system by removing waste from the body and psychologically preventing depression, but I don’t do it (=^▽^)σ. I’m so moody that I feel like doing it when I want to! Exercise really only causes in good mental and physical ways, so please try doing moderate exercise!!
This time, it’s about the philosophy of happiness. The presenter is Sam Burns, who has a genetic disease of Progeria (progeria: Hutchinson-Guilford-Progeria syndrome or HGPS, which is a very rare child’s genetic disease that accelerates “aging” and leads to death.) He passed away on January 17, 2014, at the age of 17. He lived to be 17 years old, while many children usually passed away at around 13. Over the course of 17 years, I feel that the “philosophy of happiness” he found is a truly necessary lesson for us. Also, his English pronunciation is good and easy to understand, and there are many words that are as easy to understand as high school students, so please make my article useful for learning English.
So We are going to learn English from Sam Berns’s presentation with the title “My philosophy for a happy life” from TED!

- It’s okay with what you ultimately can’t do because there is so much you can do : Even he faces with obstacles, he tries to focus on what he can do through his passion. Instead of “can’t,” he is thinking about how he can do it by adjusting and changing the angle.
- Surround yourself with people you want to be with, people of high quality : He feels very lucky to be surrounded by great family and friends. They are connected not by appearance, but by soul, and they can help each other if necessary, and groups like band groups are genuine, sincere, and outweigh the presence of progelia. And he taught us to appreciate and cherish our family, friends and communities, and to love them for ourselves, because they really have positive impacts on our daily lives.
- Keep moving forward : Have something to look forward to all the time, or work hard as a goal to enrich your life. It doesn’t have to be a big goal, it doesn’t matter.

In addition, he tries not to waste his energy, self-pitying, including the fact that such mentality is a positive mentality. And when he is not feeling good, he doesn’t ignore it, he accepts it and do what he needs to overcome it. He also says he will be happy by making efforts to change the world.

Sometimes it is necessary to be brave, but it is not always easy. Sometimes he feels devastated and depressed. But he realized that being brave is not easy by nature.

“I know more about it genetically. So it’s less of an embodiment now. It used to be like this thing that prevents me from doing all this stuff, that causes other kids to die, that causes everybody to be stressed, and now it’s a protein that is abnormal, that weakens the structure of cells. So, and it takes a burden off of me because now I don’t have to think about Progeria as an entity.”

In the end
Seventeen years may seem like a long time, but 17 years have passed so quickly. He ended his life at the age of 17. He found his own “philosophy of happiness.” The “philosophy of happiness” is very simple and it’s “to have positive relationships.” This is also proven in psychology experiments.
We should have an intuitive understanding of happiness. People make people unhappy, but people make people happy too. I understand that relationships are difficult. Why can’t we have honest heart to know each other? No, we already have that heart. There are no born bad guys. I know each individual has problems, but be kind to them as well as to yourself. Kindness is light and warm. I think that peace will come when it surrounds the world. If you feel unhappy and uneasy, create positive relationships .Nothing happens if you wait. You can accomplish everything by acting. It may sound cruel, but once you get over it, you’ll get what you want.
It’s up to you to live your life. You choose your life. If you want to feel happy, create positive relationships. There’s nothing you can’t do. Let’s be nice for others. I’ll do my best too, so let’s all do our best together! ٩( ‘ω’ )و then, Bye bye (@^^)/~~~
