感恩是什么?
“gratitude is the inward feeling of kindness received. thankfulness is the natural impulse to express that feeling. thanksgiving is the following of that impulse.” — henry van dyke
"谢意是受到恩惠后的内心感觉,感恩是渴望表达这感觉的自然反应,感恩节就是为这反应要生的。”
“thankfulness is the beginning of gratitude. gratitude is the completion of thankfulness. thankfulness may consist merely of words. gratitude is shown in acts.” — henri frederic amiel
"感恩始于感谢之心,谢意正好完成了感恩。感恩也许只是一堆言语文字,感谢却要以行动去表逹。”
it isn’t what you have in your pocket that makes you thankful, but what you have in your heart.
令你感恩的,不是你口袋裡的,而是在你心中的。
为何要感恩?
“to educate yourself for the feeling of gratitude means to take nothing for granted, but to always seek out and value the kind that will stand behind the action. nothing that is done for you is a matter of course. everything originates in a will for the good, which is directed at you. train yourself never to put off the word or action for the expression of gratitude.” — albertschweitzer
"学习感恩即是要明白没有东西是理所当然的,经常寻求和重视行动的背后。没有东西是奉旨的,一切都源于为你好。必须训练自己不要延迟表达谢意。”
“to live a life of gratitude is to open our eyes to the countless ways in which we are supported by the world around us. such a life provides less space for our suffering because our attention is more balanced. we are more often occupied with noticing what we are given, thanking those who have helped us, and repaying the world in some concrete way for what we are receiving.” — gregg krech
"感恩之心有无数的方法打开我们的眼睛,让我们看清周围的世界是多麽支持我们的。感恩的生活容不下痛楚,因为我们的注意力会集中在我们所拥有的,感谢身边帮忙过我们的人,并以实际行动回馈。”
[Ok3w_NextPage]不懂感恩的后果?
“if a fellow isn’t thankful for what he’s got, he isn’t likely to be thankful for what he’s going to get.” — frank a. clark
"如果一个家伙不为所拥有的感恩,他不可能会为自己将来所拥有的感恩。”
“you won’t be happy with more until you’re happy with what you’ve got.” — viki king
"若你对现在拥有的不感到高兴,你将不会因为得到更多而感到快乐。”
不幸的人如何感恩?
“i thank god for my handicaps, for, through them, i have found myself, my work, and my god.” — helen keller
"我感激上帝赐我残缺。透过伤残,我找到自己、我的工作、我的主宰。”— 海伦凯勒
difficulties are opportunities to better things; they are stepping stones to greater experience. perhaps someday you will be thankful for some temporary failure in a particular direction. when one door closes, another always opens.
困难是好景的机遇,是重任的垫脚石。也许有一天你会感谢一些暂时性的错败,当一扇门关闭时,一定会有另一扇门打开。
“one of life’s gifts is that each of us, no matter how tired and downtrodden, finds reasons for thankfulness.” — j. robert moskin
"生命赋予我们每个人能力,无论多麽疲倦或被践踏过,我们都可以找到感恩的理由。”
相反,在施予的时候,不要介怀对方感恩与否。
“blessed are those who give without remembering. and blessed are those who take without forgetting.” — bernard meltzer
幸福的是那些施予而又不记著的人;有福的是那些受恩而又不忘记的人。
感恩的重要性?
“a thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all other virtues.” — cicero
"感恩不单是美德,更是美德之母。”
“develop an attitude of gratitude, and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something bigger and better than your current situation.” — brian tracy
"培养感恩之心,答谢身边所有。这样的话,每一步都会是迈向更佳未来的一步。”
“if you concentrate on finding whatever is good in every situation, you will discover that your life will suddenly be filled with gratitude, a feeling that nurtures the soul.” — rabbi harold kushner
[Ok3w_NextPage]如果在每一件事情上你能够集中注意力寻找好的,那麽你会突然发现你的生活充满欣慰感激——一种培养心灵的感觉。
感恩令人得到更多。
“what if you gave someone a gift, and they neglected to thank you for it – would you be likely to give them another? life is the same way. in order to attract more of the blessings that life has to offer, you must truly appreciate what you already have.” — ralph marston
"假设你给别人一份礼物,如果他们忘了感谢你,你还会给予他们其他礼物吗?人生亦是同一道理。为了得到更多的福乐,你必须对自己所拥有的感恩。”
“be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. if you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough.” — oprah winfrey
"如你对自己所拥有的感恩,你将会得到更多。但如果你专注于自己所没有的东西,那你永远都不会满足。”
希望各位常怀感恩之心。
“when i started counting my blessings, my whole life turned around.” — willie nelson
"当我开始计算我所拥有的福乐,我的整个生命立即给扭转过来。”
“you simply will not be the same person two months from now after consciously giving thanks each day for the abundance that exists in your life. and you will have set in motion an ancient spiritual law: the more you have and are grateful for, the more will be given you.” — sarah ban breathnach
“若你从今起每天自觉地对生活的种种感恩,两个月后,你将会是一个不同的人。你会启动了一个古老的精神定律:你感谢得愈多,你将得到更加多。”
