村子里住着一个双眼全瞎的老头子。 每到晚上，总看着他提着一个明亮的灯笼外出，每个人看到眼里，都十分不解。
终于有一天，小李子忍不住上前去问他： 『老爷爷，你眼睛又看不见，为什么还要提着灯走路呢？』
老头听了，这才慢条斯理地回答说： 『我提灯当然不是为了我自己照路的，而是为了给别人照亮用的
这样别人能看见我，不但帮助了别人，也保护了我自己』

The other night I dreamt I went to the gates of heaven.
And St. Peter said 'Go back to earth. There are no slums up here.'
Mother Teresa, 1910-1997  
 

My daughter one day asked me before she went to bed,
"Daddy, Do you know why I always remember bad things, bad experiences instead of good things? I just can not help it." 
 I puzzled for a long while, and said,
"You know, it is human's nature and survival's instinct to memorize bad things so that we could avoid the same mistakes again."
"We need to learn from God and pray for God to appreciate and tresure all the good things we had, to be a better person."

Come to me, all you that labour, and are burdened, and I will refresh you.
Take up my yoke upon you, and learn of me, because I am meek, and humble of heart: and you shall find rest to your souls.
 For my yoke is sweet and my burden light.

    "If there is no wind, row."
                       ~ Latin Proverb

The chief beauty about time
is that you cannot waste it in advance.
The next year, the next day, the next hour
are lying ready for you,
as perfect, as unspoiled,
as if you had never wasted or misapplied
a single moment in all your life.
You can turn over a new leaf every hour
if you choose.
Arnold Bennett , 1867-1931
British Novelist

生活的空间，须藉清理挪减而留出；
心灵的空间，则经思考开悟而扩展。
打桥牌时要把我们手中所握有的这副牌，
不论好坏，都要把它打到淋漓尽致；
人生亦然，重要的不是发生了什么事，
而是我们处理它的方法和态度，
假如我们转身面向阳光，就不可能陷身在阴影里
