銘記你生命中美好的東西

Remember the positive things

When times become difficult (and you know they sometimes will), remember a moment in your life that was filled with joy and happiness.

Remember how it made you feel, and you will have the strength you need to get through any trial.

When life throws you one more obstacle than you think you can handle, remember something you achieved through perseverance and by struggling to the end.

In doing so, you’ll find you have the ability to overcome each obstacle brought your way.

When you find yourself drained and depleted of energy, remember to find a place of sanctuary and rest.

Take the necessary time in your own life to dream your dreams and renew your energy, so you’ll be ready to face each new day.

When you feel tension building, find something fun to do. You’ll find that the stress you feel will dissipate and your thoughts will become clearer.

When you’re faced with so many negative and draining situations, realize how minuscule problems will seem when you view your life as a whole--and remember the positive things.

【人生啟迪】

在生活中永遠保持樂觀、積極向上的心態，白居易說“樂人之樂，人亦樂其樂；憂人之憂，人亦憂其憂”。事情是不會變的，變化的是我們對待事情的心態。與其痛苦憂傷的悲觀度過每一天，不如昂起頭，微笑著享受生活吧，即使路上沒有花朵，仍可以欣賞荒蕪。
