Para 1: One day, Jake came home from school and complained as usual.
"Mom, it rained during recess, and I got soaked!” His voice dripped with disappointment. Feeling the familiar frustration, I took a deep breath, “That sounds tough, Jake. Anything good happened?” He looked at me incredulously as though he were asked to speak a foreign language. But after a moment's pause, he sighed, “Well, I did get to sit next to Ben at Math who helped me with my problems.” I noticed a slight lift in his shoulders and a flicker of light in his eyes. “That’s great! Focusing on those moments can really help shift how we feel.” I smiled.
Para 2: From then on, Jake came to understand the power of seeing good points.
Each day, I encouraged him to find just one bright spot amidst his grumbles. Slowly, change emerged. "Today, although I didn't score in basketball practice, I made a really cool play," he would say, his tone shifting from lament to pride. Then, the more he practiced, the more spirited he was. Once, after a really rough day, he added, “You know, Mom, it wasn’t all bad. At least I finished my book report!” Those words almost sent me to tears for my son used to walk in the shadows, but now he embraced the light.
第一版结尾：Those words almost sent me to tears for in the cup of life, Jake was once consumed by the spills, but now he also saw the thrills.
