Gratefulness

一個人要快樂,要學習如何感激
從我們眼睛睜開那一剎那,我們就用感激的態度看我這一天
當我們得到面試機會時,我們感激公司給我們一個面試的機會
當我們遇到挫敗時,我們感激有一個反省檢討的機會
當我們跟自己的另一半爭吵時,我們要感激即將有一個彼此溝通的機會
當我們收到學校的拒絕信時,我們要感激學校給我另一個機會選擇其他學校

“I wondered how it was possible to walk for an hour through the woods and see nothing of note. I who cannot see find hundreds of things: the delicate symmetry of a leaf, the smooth skin of a silver birch, the rough, shaggy bark of a pine. I who am blind can give one hint to those who see: use your eyes as if tomorrow you will have been stricken blind. Hear the music of voices, the songs of a bird, the mighty strains of an orchestra as if you would be stricken deaf tomorrow. Touch each object as if tomorrow your tactile sense would fail. Smell the perfume of flowers, taste with relish each morsel, as if tomorrow you could never taste or smell again. Make the most of every sense. Glory in all the facets and pleasures and beauty which the world reveals to you.” Hellen Keller
