第3章 收集幸福HappinessIsAllaroundUs

佚名/Anonymous

生活就像一条被鲜花、蝴蝶和鲜果簇拥的曲折小径,我们没有必要绕弯路去别处找寻幸福,幸福就在我们脚下。

我们都期望得到那只“金罐子”,那里承载着全部持久的幸福,我们想用这些去充实自己的生活,却忽视了那些看似无益于实现远大抱负或不能使成功一蹴而就之事。

幸福就在我们身边,只是它总是一点一滴地出现。只要我们收集每一个颗粒,不久便会集满一篮。

此刻,那些围绕在我周围的点点滴滴的幸福又是什么样的呢

Life is like a winding path surrounded by flowers,butterflies,and delicious fruit,but many of us spend much time looking for happiness around the next corner.We do not bend to enjoy the happiness which is ours for the taking just at our feet.

In our desire to reach the“pot of gold”,complete and lasting happiness,we all want to fill our lives.We ignore anything which doesn’t seem worthy of such a large ambition,or which can’t give us the whole thing all at once.

Happiness is all around us,but it often comes in small grains.When we gather it grain by grain,we soon have a basketful.

What small pieces of happiness surround me right now?
