One day, he looked out of the window and saw a bird in its cage. The bird was given all its food and water and didn't do anything at all. He admired(羡慕) a lot and he decided to become a child's pet and then he made a plan. The bat flew to parks so that he could be seen by some children and taken home.However, that bat was ugly and the children paid little attention to him. So the bat decided to improve his look. Finally, he met a little boy who was willing to keep him as a pet and took him home. The bat was happy in his cage, in a warm and comfortable house. But when he wanted to eat something, there were no insects for him.There was only bird food in his cage. When the boy noticed the bat was getting thinner, he used a spoon to feed the bat bird food in order to make the bat enjoy that kind of food. Some days later, the bat managed to escape from the cage and returned home. He began to hunt insects for food with other bats. Later, he became strong and enjoyed his life as a bat. 26.

The photos you see on the screen can give you ideas about how your bodies“should” look. The truth is that you are all different in your own way.Accepting who you are can help you feel happier and more positive about yourself. Self-acceptance means appreciating what you' re good at, like sports, science or music. It also means valuing the parts of you that don't shine as brightly, like being forgetful or untidy.It's a habit about being kind to yourself even when you make a mistake. In other words, just accept who you are no matter what other people say or think. When you accept who you are, you worry less about things you can't change. This makes you feel happier and more confident. Everyone can feel as if they have to appear perfect. That leads us to forget about the little things that make us special, because we' re so busy trying to meet someone else's standards. Self-acceptance can also help you discover what you' re really good at. Start by making a list of all the things you like about yourself. Maybe you' re good at cooking, or people find it easy to talk to you.Ask your friends for help. Also, try saying kind, positive things to yourself in a mirror every morning. Think up ways to treat yourself,like taking a long bath or watching your favorite film, and spend some quality time on your own.It's also important to look after yourself by eating healthy food and getting plenty of sleep. 31.
