站在哪裡
疊羅漢時，
你喜歡在哪一個位置？
最上面的？會摔得很慘。
最下面的？會被壓得很痛。
中間的？又似乎不夠刺激。
疊羅漢時，
我總是後悔我選擇的任何位置。
Shake the tree
Said a disappointed visitor, 'Why has my stay here yielded no fruit?'
'Could it be because you lacked the courage to shake the tree?' said the Master benignly.
Anthony de Mello, SJ
Jesuit Priest, Teacher and Author
I wish you enough
I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright no matter how grey the
day may appear.
I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more.I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting.
I wish you enough pain so that even the smallest of joys in life may appear
bigger.
I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.
I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.
I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final good-bye.
You love because …
You don't love because people deserve it. You love because you have it in your heart. You love because they are human beings, because they are the creations of God.

手錶
一個女孩遺失了一支心愛的手錶，
一直悶悶不樂，茶不思、飯不想，甚至因此而生病了。
神父來探病時問她：
「如果有一天你不小心掉了十萬塊錢，你會不會再大意遺失另外二十萬呢！」
女孩回答：「當然不會。」
神父又說：
「那你為何要讓自己在掉了一支手錶之後，
又丟掉了兩個禮拜的快樂
甚至還陪上了兩個禮拜的健康呢！」
女孩如大夢初醒般地跳下床來。
說： 「對！！我拒絕再損失下去， 從現在開始我要想辦法，再賺回一支手錶。」
幸福的背後

a new maturity
I had found a kind of serenity, a new maturity... I didn't feel better or stronger than anyone else but it seemed no longer important whether everyone loved me or not - more important now was for me to love them. Feeling that way turns your whole life around; living becomes the act of giving.

Peace
One does not need buildings, money, power, or status to practice the art of peace. Heaven is right where you are standing, and that is the place to train.
