My son is 15 and still growing which makes me resistant to investing a ton in his wardrobe. These pants fit him perfectly and are so cute on him!

Verified PurchaseThese pants are true to size, I ordered a large, and they fit like a large. They have a drawstring around the waist. They fit comfortably. They also have pockets, much like jeans have. The ankles are fitted. They are warm and cozy, great to lounge around in. And loving the green color. The material looks like khaki material but it's stretchy and feels like sports pants.
Attention, People of Earth:
Fine. The big secret is out. A bunch of your finest science nerds have cracked the case and discovered there is life tens of millions of miles away-here, on the beautiful planet of Venus. Yeah, no duh. Congratulations on the big reveal. We have a polite request: Stay away.
We're serious. No missions to Venus, no exploratory spacecraft, no sleepovers. If we wake up one morning and look out and see Bezos, Musk and Branson wandering around in tailored spacesuits, we're going to be really ticked off.
We mean no unfriendliness. It's just that we're not terribly impressed by what you've got going on down there.
Earth looks like a mess. You've got health crises, environmental crises, political crises. You keep fighting about face masks. You haven't figured out how to deliver French fries without having them get soft and disgusting. No wonder so many of you want to abandon Earth for another planet.
We know you'd like it here. That's what scares us. You'd all move to Venus in an instant.
But we live in a fragile solar system. We can only handle so much. If we start having you all up here, pretty soon, the Martians and Jupiterians are going to want to come, too.
In the meantime, cool your enthusiasm. Tell Elon, Jeff and Sir Richard to settle down and stick to cars, books and planes. We're not your escape plan. Venus is not Earth 2.
We wish you the best in figuring it out. We have every faith you can save your planet. If not, try Pluto. They're pretty lonely and bored out there.
Sincerely,
Venus
The Yale Happiness Class, formally known as Psyc 157: Psychology and the Good Life, is one of the most popular classes offered in the university's 320-year history. The class was only ever taught in person once, during the spring 2018 semester, as a 1, 200-person lecture course in the largest space on campus. That March, a free 10-week version made available to the public via Coursera, titled "the Science of Well-Being," also became instantly popular, attracting hundreds of thousands of online learners. But when lockdowns began last March, two full years later, the enrollment numbers skyrocketed. To date, over 3. 3 million people have signed up, according to the website.
The Coursera curriculum asks students to, among other things, track their sleep patterns, keep a gratitude journal, perform random acts of kindness, and take note of whether, over time, these behaviors connect with a positive change in their general mood.
One small study from the curriculum involved polling（投票）632 Americans to predict how happy they would be if they were given $5 to spend on themselves versus getting $5 and being told they must spend it on someone else. In the study, people predicted that they would be happier if they were allowed to keep the money. But participants consistently reported afterward that they had in fact got more satisfaction from spending money on someone else.
Some studies show that finding reasons to be grateful can increase your general sense of well-being. Kezie Nwachukwu, 22, took the class at Yale. He didn't think it was revolutionary; however, he has managed to find some lasting value in the curriculum. He said. "I should be so grateful for everything that I have. Because you're not built to notice these things. "
Dee Ray, a researcher in Texas, learns how children feel not by listening to their words but by watching them play. She directs the Center for Play Therapy at the University of North Texas and often works in schools, where she divides a classroom into several 10 feet by10 feet sections and fills them with toys— various puppets, sandbags that a child with negative emotions can hit.
Play therapists（治疗师）encourage children， typically between ages 2 and 12，to express their thoughts and feelings through playing rather than by talking about what's happening in their lives.
Ray practices child-oriented play therapy, in which the therapist follows the child's lead while witnessing and recording. In other approaches, the therapist eventually takes a more directive role, engaging the child in activities intended to teach something and correct behavior.
The belief behind is that play itself is therapeutic（疗愈的）. The toys, musical instruments or art supplies aren't used to keep children busy or distracted while they talk through problems. Instead, play gives them an opportunity to deal with negative emotions, said Paris Goodyear Brown, a play therapist and co-founder of a treatment center in Franklin. "Play provides a sense of competency（胜任力）for children. "
Play therapy can reach children who have experienced something "unspeakable" in a way that talk therapy can't, said Goodyear Brown. "There's so much wisdom inside little people, but they just don't have all the ways of showing and telling that adults do. "
Making Your Memories Last
"My father wrote me a lovely letter before he died. It is the most cherished thing I own. "Have you ever heard someone say so?
As you all know, your houses, cars, jewels or even money are your financial properties, which are relatively easy to pass along because they are in a physical form. But don't let your possessions become the only representations of your life. Your thoughts and life journey are equally valuable. .
Studies have shown that kids who know about their family's past are more empathetic, have better coping skills and higher self-esteem. So how can you turn those feelings, thoughts, and insights into something that can be passed on? These tips can help get you started.
Create a catalogue
Before you begin, check what you've got. If you want to pass along family stories or wisdom, list everything available to you, such as photos and letters from your parents. You could, for example, interview your parents about their lives or write an article about your academic progress.
Make a plan
Once you know what you've got and what you need, make a list that details how you're going to produce what you're missing and how to record it. You don't want the book of your life stories lost in an attic!
You can't possibly get everything done at once. By taking active steps and starting with the easiest-to-create projects, you can bring memories to life. For example, you can write a short article about your childhood or film a two-minute video about your wedding day. When you see the results of these smaller projects, you may well be inspired to create more.

In 2020, Nancy Ballard, a 60-year-old retired entrepreneur, went for a routine checkup at her doctor's office that turned into something extraordinary.

On the last day before Christmas, I hurried to the stores to buy the remaining gifts I didn't manage to buy earlier.
Seeing all the people crawling along in the queue there, I started to complain about this annoying Christmas. Nonetheless, I made my way to the toys section. Once I was there, I started to curse at the prices as I wonder if all kids really play with such expensive toys.
While looking in the toys section, I noticed a small boy of about five years old, pressing a doll against his chest. He kept on touching the hair of the doll lovingly and looking at the pricetag. His eyes looked so sad.
Before I knew it, I found myself bending over and asked who he wanted to give the doll to. "It is the doll that my sister loved most and wanted so much for this Christmas. She was so sure that Santa Claus would bring it to her. "Still holding the doll in his hands, the boy continued, "but I don't have enough money. "
I told him that maybe Santa Claus would bring it to her after all and not to worry. However, he replied sadly, "My sister and I are living with Granny. She is a cleaner in a big building and she is working very hard. She tries her best to give food to us. "
My heart nearly stopped. "I told Granny and my little sister that Santa Claus will send gifts to them, " the little boy looked up at me and said, "I prayed to God to help me and I started to save every coin in my pocket half a year ago, so that I could have enough money to buy them each a small gift for Christmas. But now I don't even have enough for the doll." He looked at the doll again quietly with sad eyes.
Tears welling up in my eyes, I quickly reached for my wallet and took a few dollars out.

I said to the boy, "What if we checked again, just in case, to see if you have enough money?"
Two days later, I happened to be in a neighborhood visiting my friend when I spotted a familiar doIl, and two little people.
