The Joy of Living 生活的樂趣
Joy in living comes from having fine emotions, trusting them, giving them the freedom of a bird in the open. Joy in living can never be assumed as a pose, or put on from the outside as a mask. People who have this joy do not need to talk about it; they radiate it. They just live out their joy and let it splash its sunlight and glow into other lives as naturally as bird sings.
We can never get it by working for it directly. It comes, like happiness, to those who are aiming at something higher. It is a byproduct of great, simple living. The joy of living comes from what we put into living, not from what we seek to get from it.
生活中的樂趣來源於良好的情緒,信賴這些情緒,並任由它們如同鳥兒高翔於天空般地自由自在。生活中的樂趣從來是無法裝模作樣的,或是戴上一張快樂的麵具就能擁有的。擁有這種樂趣的人們無需將它掛在嘴邊,他們自然地傳播出快樂的信息。他們生活在自己的快樂當中,也將這種快樂的精神自然地感染、點亮其他人的生活,就像鳥兒的歌唱一樣。
如果你赤裸裸地去追求樂趣,那麽你就不可能擁有它,它與幸福一樣青睞胸有大誌的人們。它存在於高雅、簡單的生活中。它來自於我們對生活的付出,而不是我們對生活的索求。
