People Will Not Appreciate What They Have Until They Lose It.

只有失去了,才学得去珍惜.

我们人总是在追求,追求更美好的东西.但我什么时候停下来看看我们已经拥有的呢.生活太现实了,我总是觉得缺少什么东西,一直都不满足.

其实,如果你去想一想,实在有太多的事东西值得我们感激用心去感恩.一切的一切,都是我们的财富,一切的我
佣有的都值得我们感恩。

有追求是必要的,可是在追求的同时,享受分享已经拥有的财富.应该是最好的生活态度吧. 

不要失去了,才学得去珍惜


People Will Not Appreciate What They Have Until They Lose It.

We, human are always pursuing something better and better. But we don't know when we should stop, and see what we already have right now.
This is the reality of life. We always think that we lack of something, always feel unsatisfied all the time.

Actually, if you and me thinking over about it again and again, we'll realize that there is so much things worth for us to be grateful of. 
We should grateful of everthing we have now. 

Has something to pursue is very important, but during the pursuing, enjoy and grateful of what we have now, should be the best life attitude.

I have been thirsting for a pair of new shoe all along until I saw some people who had lost their feet.

There`s a story :A person is ill in bed many years and now he is dying. Doctor tells him and his family member, his life will not be long. Hopeless he only can lies down on the bed prays to God: "God please let me live!" He has really lived for several years. This caused his prayer to be more diligent, and prayed the content also changed: "God, please let me go down for a walk!" When he can walk then he starts to change the prayer word: "God, please let me obtain a sum of money......" . Desire without limits, is not joyful all because is not content. Said has a person, she feel regret and unsatisfied because she doesn`t have a new pair of attractive shoes. One day, when she saw someone with no feet, he will be no longer feel unsatisfied because of no having a new shoes. So, always thank God of what you have now, don`t ask for more and more. 

有个故事说:一个人卧病在床多年,行将就木。医生告诉他和他的家人,他去日无多了。无望的他只能双手合十,十分虔诚地躺在床上向上帝祷告:“上帝啊请让我活下去吧!”果然,他活了几年。这使他的祷告更勤快了,并且祷告的内容也改为:“上帝啊,请让我下地走走吧!”当他可以下地乱走时,他又开始改祷告词:“上帝啊,请让我得到一笔钱吧......”。欲望无止境,不快乐都因为不知足。说是有一个人,他一直为自己没有一双漂亮的鞋而遗憾。一天,当他看到一个没有双腿的人时,他就不再为没有鞋子感到遗憾了。

俗話「知足常樂」就告訴了我們:感覺心安就是享受豐富的精神生活。
The saying "Happiness lies in contentment," tells us that feeling at ease is enjoying rich spiritual life.

Being Friends With the Opposite Sex

Being Friends With the Opposite Sex


Almost everyone has at least one friend of the opposite sex. Sometimes it may be hard, while other times it's great having someone there to talk to and understand your relationship as the same sex as your partner.

It's hard to not cross the line. Being friends with the opposite sex means spending tons of time together. However, you must know your boundaries of what you can and cannot do or talk about. It is quite common for the male or female in the friendship to have a crush on the other person. This leads to many difficulties. Although, if it's pointed out from the start that the relationship will not grow more than just a friendship, it may be a blessing.

A crush obviously means feelings for the other. So, when one is in trouble, they can go straight to their friend and talk them through it -- many times being more sincere than others.

Although this sounds great, it could lead to problems. If the friend keeps his or her feelings to himself/herself for a long period of time they could explode, leaving heartaches on both sides of the spectrum. Even if the feelings aren't kept bundled up, heartache may be in order once the other finds a partner. Which, may also end up hurting the partner, making them jealous or forbidding the friends to see each other.

Most friends of opposite sexes are great from the start, but fade in time. However, friendship may become more; many friends become spouses later on, be it ten or twenty-years down the road. Most just need to realize their true feelings for the other before becoming serious.

 

The Guide to Friendship

The Guide to Friendship

Definition of friendship
Friendship is defined as an interpersonal relationship between two or more humans or higher intelligent animals which exhibit a mutually helping behavior.
Meaning of a friendship

Being friends is a very important ordeal. Without friends, our daily problems would become distorted and seem hundreds of times worse than what they really are. Friendships help us through our bad times and give us peers to have fun with.

Recipe for friendship
Friendship is one of those things which come natural – something that should not be forced or lied about. When looking for a friend, be yourself. Friends will come. As for after the friendship has evolved, friends help each other and do not lie to each other, except white lies. The most important aspect of a friendship however, is trust.

Friends online
Finding friends online may seem easy, but is more trickier than what it looks. Many "chatters" lie about how they are and act a different way in person. No shows, exaggerations and acting "cool" are all too common amongst internet users.

Ending a friendship
Ending a friendship may be a difficult decision. However, sometimes it is unavoidable. The best way is to tell them in person. Many people believe avoidance is the answer when ending a relationship. However, this is not a good technique in that it leaves broken hearts and anger on both sides.
