When you wear clothes made from cotton, do you know where the cotton comes from? Countries along the Indus River like India are believed to have grown cotton for the first time, bu China is the world's largest cotton producer now.

China produces about 22% of the world's cotton, of which 87. 3%comes from Xinjiang, according to the latest data from the National Bureau of Statistics. Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region（新疆维吾尔自治区）in the northwest of China is home to the nation's largest cotton-producing area.

The planting of cotton in Xinjiang dates back to the late Western Han Dynasty（朝代）. According to historical records, cotton was introduced from West Asia to Xinjiang. It soon spread across Xinjiang because of the region's full sunlight and plenty of water, which the plant needs.

Xinjiang is famous for its long staple cotton（长绒棉）, which is popular among customers. In the past, people mainly picked the cotton by hand, but now machines have gradually replaced it. In Xinjiang, nearly 70% of cotton is grown mechanically. The use of machines prevents the cotton from being polluted and improves its quality （质量）.

After bags of cotton are packed and transported to many factories, they become clothes, shoes, dolls, toys and many other things we see in our daily life. Therefore, theversatility of cotton has earned it a nickname —"white gold".

Japanese children are taught to keep the group order and obey rules since they're in kindergartens. So they are asked to have the right posture（姿势）from an early age. Those little kids sitting together share the same posture.

But there are also worries that Japanese children might lose their personalities under such education. Japan has a new job in long-suppressed social relationships: Tear Therapist. This job mainly helps people cry.

①At the age of 14, I had an illness which the doctors said would leave me in a wheelchair at 25. Luckily, it didn't happen as predicted. I am very thankful tat the illness never spread to my legs.

② Still, everything I did hurt, from opening a door to putting on my clothes. Two years later, I no longer had the ability to move my left hand. I was in constant pain because I didn't have the muscle（肌肉） strength required to do these simple tasks.

③ After undergoing 40 years of this illness, I decided to step into the world of new healing. I learned to allow the flow of peace to heal and care for me. Healing is having the courage to love yourself, and trusting you have a better life. When I got used to that new belief system, I started to become healthy.

④ Slowly and steadily, I was unlocking myself from the only world I had known. I began to imagine a new life filled with joy and thanks. If my heart healed, my body would heal.

⑤ As I became more in touch with the energy around me, I learned the unbelievable power of words and how we receive exactly what we ask for. I came to understand that everything in life is an offering, a chance to grow.

⑥ We always have a choice. We can be lost in past belief patterns and behaviors that no longer serve us, or we can create a new story, one that is truer to our real self.

⑦ I learned that forgiveness +compassion（同情）= healing. When we forgive ourselves, and others. we heal the hurt and discomfort. When we are kind and graceful, we attract the same. Healing is based in the heart, not the mind. As a result of my learning, I now live each day in joy and thanks.
