Be Grateful

Guidance for Reciting

Being grateful is a way to sing for our life which comes just from our love and hope. We should even be grateful to life whenever we are unsuccessful or unlucky. Only by doing this can we find our weakness and shortcomings when we fail. We can also get relief and warmth when we are unlucky.

Being grateful is an important philosophy of life and a great wisdom. Being grateful is a way to sing for our life which comes just from our love and hope. It is impossible for anyone to be lucky and successful all the time so long as he lives in the world. We should learn how to face failure or misfortune bravely and generously and to try to deal with it.“Life is a mirror. When you smile in front of it,it will also smile and so will it when you cry to it.”If you are grateful to life,it will bring you shining sunlight. If you always complain about everything,you may own nothing in the end. When we are successful,we can surely have many reasons for being grateful,but we have only one excuse to show ungratefulness if we fail.

学会感恩

诵读导言

感恩源于我们对生活的热爱和希望,它是我们歌颂生活的一种方式。不论是遭遇失败还是不幸,我们都应该感谢生活。只有这样,失败后,我们才能发现自己的缺点和不足,不幸时,我们还能感受到安慰和温暖。

感恩是一项重要的处世哲学,是生活的大智慧。感恩源于我们对生活的热爱和希望,它是我们歌颂生活的一种方式。人生在世,不可能事事顺通。对于各种失败和不幸,我们要豁达大度,勇敢地面对失败与不幸,并想办法解决。“生活是一面镜子,你对它笑,它也会对你笑;你对他哭,它也会对你哭。”如果对生活感恩,你的生命将充满灿烂的阳光;如果一味怨恨,终将一无所获。我们成功时,有千万个理由感恩生活,而失败时,只要一个借口就会表现出忘恩负义。
