生活需感恩 - 駱軍

Enjoy Your Day with Gratitude

　　生活需要懷抱一顆感恩之心

　 　A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: "I am blind, please help." There were only a few coins in the hat.

　　一個雙目失明的男孩坐在大樓前的台階上，腳邊擺著一頂帽子。他立了一塊牌子，上麵寫著：“我是瞎子，請幫助我。”那帽子裏隻有寥寥幾枚硬幣。

　 　A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.

　　一個路人從旁邊走過，他從口袋裏拿出幾枚硬幣，放在帽子裏。然後，他拿起牌子，翻到另一麵寫了些字。隨後他把牌子放回去，讓所有路過的人都能看見牌子上新寫的字。

　 　Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked," Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?"

　　很快，帽子裏的錢就多起來了。越來越多的人把錢給這個失明的孩子。下午，改寫牌子的人回來看看情況，男孩聽出了他的腳步聲，問道：“您是早上幫我改寫牌子的人麽?您寫了什麽?”

　 　The man said, "I only wrote the truth. I said what you said, but in a different way. I wrote: 'Today is a beautiful day, but I cannot see it.'"

　　那人說：“我隻是寫出了事實。我表達的意思和你一樣，隻是用了另一種方式。我寫的是：‘今天是美好的一天，而我卻無法看見。’”

　 　Both signs told people that the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people that they were so lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second sign was more effective?

　　兩個牌子都告訴人們男孩是盲人，但第一個牌子隻是簡單地講述了這一事實;而第二個牌子卻告訴人們，他們是如此幸運，因為他們不是盲人。所以說，第二個牌子效果更佳，並沒有什麽好驚訝的不是嗎?

　　Moral of the Story:

　　故事的寓意：

　　Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be innovative. Think differently and positively.

　　感激你所擁有的一切。要創造，要革新，用不同的方式進行積極的思考。

　　When life gives you 100 reasons to cry, show life that you have 1000 reasons to smile.

　　當生命給你100種哭泣的理由，你要還它1000種微笑的原因。

　 　Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear. Keep the faith and drop the fear.

　　麵對過去無怨無悔，把握現在充滿信心，備戰未來無所畏懼。保持信念，克服恐懼!

　　The most beautiful thing is to see a person smiling. And even more beautiful is, knowing that you are the reason behind it !               

　　最美好的事，是看到某人的微笑;而更美好的事，是他因你而微笑。
