The set of pictures present a sharp contrast scene of two girls facing heavy pressure. The left girl, looking rather painful, is trapped under heavy pressure, while the other girl sits on the pile of stress and plays happily with a flying bird. Obviously, the picture shows two different attitudes people hold when faced with stress.

　　The picture might set us into thinking how to cope with stress. Here are some tips. Firstly, keep optimistic. Studies suggest that the feeling of helplessness undermines the body's immune system. On the contrary, optimists will feel in control of their own life and acts quickly, reaching out for advice, and looking for solutions. In many successful medical treatment cases, what keeps a patient alive is their optimism and willpower. Secondly, to accept the pressure. Stress of study, work and life are ubiquitous, but we should not just resist and escape it. Actually, there always is trouble and problems once we chose a path to go, because almost everything worth doing is not so easy. Thirdly, solve the problem, rather than complain about it. Many people complain about the surroundings and don't think about the solutions when faced with problems.

　　If we hold an optimistic attitude, we can make our life better and come through distressful periods with more physical and mental vigor. Evidently, what determines our choice between “flying” or “fighting” will be our attitudes towards life, not the stress itself.
