If depression makes you notice only the bad things, try to notice the good things. There are both good things and bad things in life. The more good things you notice , the less depression you’ll feel.
Then, try to do something fun for yourself. For example, you can take time to play with a friend or a pet. You can do something that you are interested in, such as painting, singing and so on. You can also find something to laugh about—a funny movie, a joke… Perhaps laughing can help cheer you up.
Finally, please remember that depression takes time to heal (治愈). So most of all, don’t forget to be patient with yourself.

One possible version:
Let’s Obey the Traffic Rules
It’s important for us to obey traffic rules. As students, let’s start with the things around us! First, when walking across the road, we must be careful. Remember to walk on the crosswalk. We must cross the street only when we see the green “walk” sign. And always walk on the sidewalk. Second, when riding a bicycle, never ride too fast. Don’t listen to music while riding. Third, don’t play on the street or climb over the fence.
In short, it’s important for us to obey the traffic rules for safety.
