4 . “A positive attitude can be a gift to those around you,” said Jamie Long, a clinical psychologist in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. “But it shouldn't take the place of listening thoughtfully to others' experiences.”
“When you choose to look at situations from one positive angle, you are very likely to dismiss a true experience,” Long explained. Even if you try to cheer up someone, ignoring someone's difficult experiences can leave them feeling they should hide negative feelings in the future.
As examples of “positive” responses that might destroy a friend's ability to share their feelings, Long listed: “Look for the silver lining” and “it could be worse”. Instead of trying to find a positive angle, Long suggested using accepting phrases that communicate a willingness to listen, and to share life's difficult moments with the people you care about.
Still, the positive benefits of negative emotions may be best experienced in relatively small doses(剂量). Lomas Quintero highlighted that appreciating the value of difficult feelings is all about finding balance. “Any negative emotion can go too far or turn into a clinical issue,” he said.
Long agreed. “There is an abundance of research that really touts(吹捧)the benefits of positivity, and we're not denying that,” Long said. “When you do so to an extreme, when you dismiss truth, that's where problems arise.”

Recently, 16-year-old Jack found himself troubled his parents,especially his mom. They perhaps just cared too much, always nagging, reminding him about everything ,worrying about the smallest things, sometimes even forbidding him to hang out with friends, which, of course, caused tons of stress for Jack. Feeling like a bird caged, he desperately longed for freedom and even thought of running away from home, but somehow, an unknown kind of guilt stopped him to do so.
The suffering had seemingly gone on for ages and become so much that it was almost unbearable. Then one morning at the dinner table, the family were having breakfast when it struck Jack that he had to go to school in advance because of some earlier arrangements in school.
“Mom and dad, I gotta go.” he said and quickly picked up his school bag.
“But you haven’t finished your food” his mother responded, acute anxiety obvious on her face.
“I’m running out of time and I will explain it later. ” Jack got impatient.
“It won’t take you....”
“Bang”, before she could finish, Jack had stormed out of front door, slamming the door shut, leaving his father and mother stricken dumb.
That night, Jack just locked himself up in his room. Sadness, anger, helplessness, disappointment and many other untold miserable feelings kept flooding over him. However his father and mother tried to talking to him, he wouldn't open the door. Unable to fall asleep, he turned on his computer and logged on to his Instagram account, where he randomly viewed and mindlessly liked his friends’ photos—hundreds of them, all were the sort that overflowed with real happiness and pleasure. “Why is the whole world all so happy except me?” Jack thought to himself and sighed heavily. Just then, a strange screen name caught his eyes. “How could someone give herself such an old-fashioned name ‘Troubled Sally’? and how come she is on my friend list?” he thought doubtfully. Driven by curiosity, he decided to investigate.

You didn't carry me inside you,or give birth to me. Yet our connection as mother and daughter is just as deep,maybe even deeper,as it would have been if we'd had a physical connection.
Even though I’m in my twenties now,we still celebrate my "special day" every June; the anniversary of the date that I legally became your daughter,and was brought from my home to live with you and.Dad.It's a date that I never want to forget, because it marked the beginning of our lives together as a family.
I was just nine weeks old when I was given up by my birth mother. I don't know much about her,only that she wanted me to grow up in a proper family, with a better life than she could give me.I'm certain that I've had every opportunity in life that my birth mother would have dreamed for me. You paid for me to go to a private school, and encouraged me to study hard and to go on to university.When I was a teenager. You were my taxi driver, encouraging me to diving competitions and cheering me on from the sidelines.
Every year we took family holidays.As an only child, because you and Dad understandably didn't want to put yourselves through the difficult adoption process again, I was always spoiled with toys, and so much attention.
Probably the greatest gift that you've ever given me was to feel proud about being adopted. It was never kept a secret in our house and you were always very open about how I’d come to be your daughter.
You're my mother in all the ways that really matter, Mum. When I'm stressed with work, or heartbroken over a failed relationship.It's you I call. When I'm sick, you'll drive to my flat to look after me, when I have something to celebrate, we'll go out together. You're my best friend,Mum.
Love, Hannah

My mom told me the story when I asked her about my hand. “The room was quiet, and you were quiet. I was waiting for you to cry. I asked if you were OK, but they were hesitant, the doctor and nurses. They said you were missing a hand." My mom told this to me with such complex（复杂的）feelings. My disability came as a surprise to my parents, but they took me home and treated me as any other child.
They knew I was an active child and took part in sports, music and everything a typical child would. They never let anything hold me back. That was their goal. However hard, they would help me. And with many kind people's help, I was able to receive prosthetics（义肢） that cost $1,000, at no cost.
Middle and high school brought about different challenges. Just like most girls, I struggled hard with self-respect for how I looked. I was not like other girls, and I was aware of that clearly. I lost my confidence as I questioned whether anyone would ever love me. Luckily, my worry was unnecessary.
My confidence was still shaking in my 20's as I became a mother. I had years to prepare everything, but I was also worried about the coming baby. Worse still, I felt my son would dislike me.
However, that all changed with one moment. It all happened when my son was around 6 years old. "She was born like that!" He responded loudly, standing protectively in front of me as I bent down to answer his little classmates' question.
It was a moment that lives on forever in my memory. My son freed me of questioning myself if I was a good enough mom for him. I was, I had always been. He knew it before I did. The pride in his voice showed me that I was just me.
