33、. The walls that were once ugly with graffiti are now covered with beautiful pictures of historical heroes and modern art, thanks to the Mural Arts Program (MAP). Its work makes schools and public places attractive, and its citizens are very proud. The program began as part of Philadelphias Anti-Gra
34、ffiti Network. Jane Golden is the MAPs artistic director. When people ask me what our program is about, she says, I answer them with one word: hope.

40、ng or doing something. In life, we all experience stimulus and response. Stimulus is when a dog barks at you and bares his teeth. Response is when your heart beats faster, your palms get sweaty and you prepare to run. Today, some people think that an expensive car is a stimulus. Happiness is a respo
41、nse. A great paying job is a stimulus. Happiness is a response. A loving relationship is a stimulus. Happiness is a response. This belief leaves us thinking and feeling: “Ill be happy when” It has been my finding that actually the opposite is true. I believe that happiness is a stimulus and response
