"I'm here."
The voice came from beside the old man's feet, He looked down and saw a beautiful flower.
"Sir, can I ask you a question?" asked the flower.
"Of course, my child. What do you want to know?" said the old man.
The flower kept silent for a second and then said:"Why are you so happy? You don't seem to have many days left to live."
The flower didn't wait for the old man to answer. She just kept saying, "My days have passed and I'm going to die very soon. That makes me so sad." At this time, she began to cry.
The old man smiled.
"Yes, I don't have many days left. But, so what?"
"Why ruin(破坏) such a lovely day for something that hasn't happened?"
"What's gone is gone. What's to come is to come. You can't change them. but you can decide to enjoy this very moment that you truly have.

We touch our faces all the time, and it had never seemed to be a big problem ﹣ until COVID 19 arrived.Touching our faces ﹣ the "T﹣zone' 'of our eye, nose and mouth ﹣ can mean giving ourselves this virus.
This is why some organizations have suggested that we should avoid touching our faces.William Sawyer, from Henry the Hand. told The Washington Post, "Just stop this simple behavior,and that would be better than any vaccine (疫苗)lever created,"
However, stopping this "simple" behavior might he harder than you think because we are used to it.
Some face﹣touching is an automatic reaction: like when there is an itch (痒) on your nose,you'll touch it again and again without thinking. A 2014 study found that touching your face also helps you to have less stress.For example. it's possible for you to do it when you feel embarrassed.According to Dacher Kelmer, a psychologist an the University of Califormia Berkeley, Us. this action may also have a social use: When you are taking to someone, for example, touching your face means you want to talk about another thing.
Besides, it's very hard to change this face touching "because you don't even kn6w you're doing it",said Sawyer.
But you're not alone. In a 2015 study. it was found that a group of medical students touched their faces about 23 times an hour ﹣ with 44 percent of the touches in the T﹣zones" , That was very surprising because medical students should know better.
Since it's so hard to shake the habit, maybe the easiest way is to wash our hands more often.This way, we can be sure that our hands are safe from COVID﹣19.
