A
When I was a boy， I used to love walking in the woods around my home. My mom
warned me several times never to travel so far that I would lose sight of the house.
Being a typical boy， however， I soon found myself hiking further and further away,
testing just how far I could go into the woods without getting lost。 After losing
my way once for two hours， though， I decided that I had better leave a trail the
next time I went for a walk。
The very next day I decided to try it. I walked into the woods until the house
was out of sight. Then I broke a small branch on a young tree to mark my place. I
wandered further in and broke another limb and then another. In a few spots where
there were no limbs small enough， I snapped the heads off the low plants that were
growing where the sunlight broke through the trees. After a while I finally got tired
and decided to head back. Turning around I easily found my tracks, but instead of
being proud I felt sad. I could see the trail of destruction I had left in the woods
going on and on. Looking at the broken limbs and dead flowers I wondered if God was
disappointed in me and I vowed never to do that again。 Instead， I started to cherish
my times alone in the woods with nature。 I'd sit by the streams and listen to them
sing. I'd watch the birds and squirrels。 I’d bend down to smell the flowers. And
I even buried an acorn or two hoping that one day an Oak might grow。
There is an old Native American Saying that goes “We will be known forever by
the tracks we leave。” As I have grown older and wiser， I have done my best to never
leave a trail of destruction in my life as I did in the woods that day。 I have instead tried to leave tracks of love, kindness, goodness， and compassion and I have strived
to show others that they can do the same. May you always leave tracks of joy as you
follow your own trail of love。

Dr。 Michael Prager， a leading Botox expert, said that a growing number of women are developing something called “computer face”. He also mentioned that
professionals who worked long hours in front of a screen were ending up with saggy
jowls（颚骨), “turkey neck" and deep-set wrinkles on their forehead and around their
eyes.
The Botox expert said that， of all his clients, office workers were most likely
to show premature（过早的）signs of ageing。 “If you are one of the unfortunate people
who frown（皱眉）while you are concentrating on the screen then, over time， you will
inevitably end up with frown lines,” Dr. Prager said。 “What is perhaps more
surprising is the number of women with saggy jowls because they are sitting in one
position for so long. If you spend most of the time looking down then the neck muscles
shorten and go saggy， eventually giving you a second neck. “
Dr. Prager， who has a practice near Harley Street in London， said he encourages
his clients to put a mirror next to their computer so they can see if they are frowning
at the screen。 “When people are stressed or thinking hard about something， then
they will often put on a ‘grumpy(脾气暴躁的）face' without even knowing what they
are doing. When my clients put a mirror next to their desk, they are often shocked
by the angry， frowning face which stares back at them。”
He said, “The women I am seeing at the moment have only been using computers
at work for the last decade or so。 But women in their 20s have grown up with them
and use them for every single task。 I think the problem is going to become much,
much worse。 In another ten years， they could be looking quite awful."
Dr. Prager said there were several simple steps which could avoid “computer
