你应该感觉今天很幸福的3个原因

 　　1. Home

　　1.家

　　Nothing can be better than to have your own house (apartment). When you come home after a long, exhausting day, you can experience all the best feelings. Just kick off heels and relax on the couch. Nowadays many people, especially students, are tired of cohabitation and urge to have a free space, no matter rental¹ or private. If you have a house, you can invite guests or enjoy your free time in solitude². Moreover, you can make a desirable repair and decorate the house any way you want.

　　没有什么比拥有自己的房子（公寓）更好的事情了。当你在漫长疲惫的一天结束后，回到家里，你可以体会到所有最好的感觉。扔掉高跟鞋，在沙发上放松。现在许多人，尤其是学生，厌倦了合住，迫切需要有自由的空间，无论是租的，还是个人的。如果你拥有一个房子，你可以邀请客人，或者享受独处的时间。而且，你可以按照自己需要的方式，去装修装饰你的房子。

　　2. Job

　　2.工作

　　If you have a job, it’s a good reason to feel blessed. Both full-time³ and part-time jobs help you gain valuable experience. There are millions of people who have lost their job and don’t have any opportunities to pay bills and loans every month. Moreover, a job keeps the mind busy and therefore reduces the chances of stress or depression due to idleness.

　　如果你有工作，这是感到幸福的一个很好的原因。全职和兼职的工作都能帮助你获得由价值的经验。上百万的人都处于失业中，没有任何机会去支付每月的账单和贷款。而且，一份工作可以让你的思绪铓锣，这样就会因为忙碌而减少你感到压力或者抑郁的机会。

　　3. Family and friends

　　3.家人和朋友

　　Having somewhere to go is a home. Having someone to love is a family. Having both is a blessing⁴. It is a big treasure to have people around who sincerely love you. Your friends are people who are closely tied with you. They seem to know everything about you and they can help you take important life decisions and talk about silly things. It’s not a good idea to take your friends and close people for granted. After all, you can always share your joys and cries with your dearest and nearest.

　　家是可以随时回去的地方。家人就是需要爱的人。有家和家人就是一件幸福的事情。身边有真正爱你的人，是非常珍贵的事情。你的朋友就是那些和你紧密联系在一起的人。他们似乎知道你的任何事情，能帮助你做出生活的重要决定，谈论很傻的问题。不把你的朋友和亲近的人当回事，这并不是一个好的想法。毕竟，你总能和你最亲近的朋友分享你的快乐和悲伤。
