THE ANGEL OF YANGTZE BRIDGE 🌿The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is a suicide hotspot. Since it was first built in 1968, over 2,000 people have jumped to their deaths from the bridge. 🌿In 2000, Chen Si was in a bus traveling across the imposing structure when he saw a woman crying on the footpath. Fearing the worst, he left the bus and ran over to her. 🌿The woman told Mr. Chen she was at her wit’s end. She had not eaten for days and had no money. She felt the only answer was to jump. Mr. Chen convinced her otherwise and talked her down. 🌿Saving a life changed Mr. Chen’s life too. He explained that it made him realize that the kindness of a stranger could make a difference. 🌿Several years passed, and Mr. Chen read more articles about people jumping off the bridge. Some days three or four people would end their lives in this way. They appeared to be mostly migrant workers. 🌿As the son of a migrant worker, Mr. Chen sympathized with them. He knew what it was like to be an outsider.

🅾 CONNECTION INCREASES LONGEVITY According to one survey, a whopping 80% of millennials say that one of their greatest desires is to have a lot of money. And 50% want to be famous. Are they on to something or is this desire misguided? According to a Harvard University study on human health and happiness, In 1928, researchers started tracking the lives of a group of 724 men from all walks of life. They are still following the lives of the 60 surviving members today. Their wives and children (2,000 of them!) are now part of the study as well. With the wealth of information that they gathered, they came to some very important conclusions. Three things stand out. First, social connections increase our happiness, physical health, and lifespan. Unfortunately, 1 in 5 Americans says that they are lonely. Second, it’s not about the number of social connections one has, it’s about the quality of those relationships. They found that the men who were most satisfied in their relationships at 50 years old were the healthiest at 80 years old. In fact, relationship quality was a better indicator of future health than the usual things, like cholesterol. Not only that, at 80 years, people’s aches and pains affected their moods less if they were in a happy relationship. Third, having good relationships affected their brains too. The men who felt they could count on their partners when times got hard, had sharper memories as they grew older. Robert Waldinger, the fourth director of this 80-year-old study, is quick to point out that a good, satisfying relationship does not mean that the couple doesn’t fight. Often, there was plenty of bickering within the healthy couples. But they knew they would be there for each other. And it’s not just romantic relationships that matter. Family, friends, and community are important too. Recent studies provide some insight into how to maintain healthy relationships. Relationship satisfaction tends to be higher when you express gratitude for your partner. Open communication, even about the hard things, is also connected to healthy relationships. And, it’s important to make time for play! Couples who experience exciting and enjoyable activities together, tend to stay together. https://t.me/+_ZtfTN2y9VtlMTg0

Helen Keller could neither see nor hear. Yet miraculously she found her salvation through language. Keller was the first deaf and blind person to earn a bachelor of arts degree. Her autobiography, The Story of My Life, was once on the reading list of most American schools. She earned renown as an activist for women’s suffrage, socialism, and antimilitarism. Keller was born in Tuscumbia, Alabama in 1880. A few months from her second birthday, she fell seriously ill. Doctors said it might be scarlet fever or meningitis. The only certain thing about Keller’s illness was it robbed her of both her ears and eyes. She would never see or hear again. At a young age, Helen was sent to Perkins Institute for the Blind. She was placed in the care of a blind teacher named Anne Sullivan. One day Anne ran cool water over one of Helen’s hands and made the symbolic motion for water on the other. It was a breakthrough. For the first time in her life, she realized that everything had a name. After that, Keller’s appetite for new words was insatiable. Under her teacher’s wing, Keller blossomed. Anne taught her to communicate in a unique way by spelling words rhythmically on the palm of her hand. She eventually learned to ‘hear’ by reading people’s lips with her heightened sense of touch. She also became proficient in braille. She could even enjoy music by feeling the vibrations with her hand. She graduated from Harvard University and went on to become a world-famous speaker and author of 12 books. From 1946 to 1957, she visited 35 countries and met every U.S. President from Grover Cleveland to Lyndon B. Johnson. Keller was also a committed socialist and anarchist. She believed in equality and respect for all. She felt her own world of deafness and blindness paled in comparison to the dark injustices of the world outside. Keller wrote, “My darkness had been filled with the light of intelligence. Meanwhile, the outer day-lit world was stumbling and groping in social blindness.” Anne Sullivan died in 1936. Keller was holding the hand of her beloved teacher and companion at the moment of death. It was the end of a beautiful relationship of 49 years. Keller died in 1968 aged 87. Helen Keller’s legacy is immense. She was a woman who could not hear, but learned to speak. She was a woman who could not see, yet she shared her vision through the miracle of language. 💥Vocabulary💥 🛑 fall ill: become very sick 🛑 breakthrough: a discovery that helps improve or solve a problem 🛑 under someone’s wing: to be protected and taught by someone 🛑 blossom: develop; do very well 🛑 pale in comparison: not as serious when compared to something else; not as good as
