Li Cuili was regarded as kind of a "weirdo" when she decided to open a library at her convenience store providing books for villagers to read free in 2008.

While others were busy making a living, Li, a farmer who owned a store in her village, (think) bigger. That year, she watched a (perform) at her village with her son. To her surprise, the show was poor and unsuitable for children. (feel) anxious that children would grow up in such an environment, she wanted to improve the (culture)atmosphere in the village through the power of books

At the very beginning, no villager came forward (borrow) her book. Li decided to attract children first by offering sugar to those who came to read. In this way, more and more children (attract) to the library. Surprised to discover children behaved much better than before, parents began to speak (high) of Li's efforts and offer support.

What began as a mother's worry now allows reading to thrive in her hometown. Her Weiguang Library, started with only 200 books, has grown into a reading center housing 5,000-6,000 books. She named it Weiguang because she believes no matter how faint light is, it has the power to keep the fire burning.

Embrace your artistic side. Many think only talented artists can create, but Kaimal's research shows otherwise. So, let go of self-doubt, pick up a brush or craft tool, and express yourself without worrying about perfection.

Explore various art forms. Art isn't just painting—it includes cooking, knitting, crafting, and more. Begin with what you love, like a childhood hobby, or try something new. Instead, switch between drawing, baking, or DIY projects based on your mood. Variety keeps the creative process exciting.

The real joy of art lies in creating, not in making a masterpiece. Kaimal emphasizes that the act of making art relieves stress, even if you're unhappy with the outcome. So, relax, have fun, let your creativity flow and immerse yourself in the experience.

Make art a daily routine. Treat art like exercise or study—set aside time for it. Create a dedicated art corner at home with your supplies. Whether it's a table corner or a basket, this space will remind you to keep creating. As art becomes part of your life, you'll feel more relaxed, fulfilled, and connected to your creative side.

A. Don't stick to one activity.

B. Focus on the outcome of art-making.

C. Value the process instead of the result.

D. What upsets you is the mood you are in.

E. Even 10 minutes a day can make a difference.

F. Everyone, regardless of skill level, can be an artist.

G. Letting go of expectations frees you to explore new ideas.

This phenomenon is surprisingly common, yet it seriously affect our ability to handle life's unavoidable challenges effectively. The inner conversations we have during defeats often include language we would never use when speaking to someone we care about. We tell ourselves we're failures, that we should have known better, or that we're simply not capable enough.

Research shows that practicing self-compassion (自我同情) provides significant mental benefits. Studies indicate that people who have higher levels of self-compassion show greater resilience (恢复力) when facing stressful situations and recover more effectively from defeats. Dr. Kristin Nef who has studied self-compassion for over twenty years, points out an important difference in how we understand our mistakes. "We can say, ‘I made a mistake,' instead of saying, ‘I am a mistake,'" she explains.

Self-compassion is a healthier choice than traditional self-respect because it does not depend on good self-judgment or comparing with others. Instead, it focuses on treating ourselves with the same kindness and understanding we would naturally show to a good friend facing similar situations. This approach recognizes that making mistakes and experiencing failure are normal human experiences rather than personal character weaknesses.

By developing self-compassion, we create opportunities for real learning and growth instead of getting trapped in cycles of self-blame and bad thoughts. This mental change enables us to respond to challenges with better emotional balance and practical problem-solving skills. Finally, self-compassion leads to improved outcomes and better mental health. It provides a stronger and more lasting base for dealing with life's difficulties than hard self-criticism ever can.
