45、y can be depressing. If you have a bad day, you may want to talk to someone.Friends are great sources of venting (宣泄), but friends can't always be there. Even worse, they may be self­centered and show no interest in your problem. It's not that roommates aren't like this, but even ju

52、product, the other as a process. People have generally viewed personal growth as an external result or a product that can easily be identified and measured. The worker who gets a rise, the student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new languageall these examples of people who have meas

53、urable results to show for their efforts.By contrast, the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks along the way. The process is not the road itself, but the attitudes, feelings people have, and their caution or

54、 courage, as they meet with new experiences and unexpected difficulties.
