有一种幸福

After stepping into society, I have deeply learnt a wealth of things. Some people say that society is the best school, which I think is considerably reasonable. Since 2005 when I walked out of my campus, I have learnt what I could never in school. Now I have known what is bitter and what is sweet, what is respect and what is endeavor(努力,尽力), what is giving and what is getting.

In different backgrounds, I am playing different roles. Among different groups, I see different faces. Only then did I realize there would not be a word called "pure" in our society. Intangibly I often touch different eye expressions from many other people, which mirror kind of arrogance. They often shout at those who are in lower status roughly. Every time I see these men, "angry" can hardly convey my feelings. Deep out of my heart, I show a great sympathy on them. They are too piteous because they don't even know what is love and respect.

Today no matter you are director of the board, manager, head of the department, or others with more authorities, there is no reason or right at all for you to look down upon anyone around you, because everyone has his own value to our society and their own self-esteem. Now maybe you are the director of the board, but without those with a lower status working painstakingly for you, how can you maintain your position so stably? Now maybe you are of great authority, but without the obedience of the public, how can you promote yourself with your so-called "authority"? In our world there exist some people living to their heart's content. They are primarily those kind and modest.

Looking at the clean ground beneath your feet, you should know to own it to the environmental cleaners. Enjoying a decent house, you should know to own it to the constructors. Appreciating the toothsome food on the table, you should own it to the peasants industriously working on the farm. Maybe they inferior to you in terms of social status, but you can never look down upon them, for they are the greatest contributors in our society. Now however much money you possess, it cannot become stuff automatically without exchange. Here the "stuff" precisely comes up under the painstaking efforts of those you look down upon.

Anyone should be respect so long as he is working hard. Though his salary is awkward, he gets with his labor, which thereby is much better than that stolen or robbed. Not all the people are born with a silver spoon in his mouth. There are always some people doomed to be average and poor. Therefore, do not outface others.

Are you wealthy today? If yes, remember not to be over-proud! Are you poor? If yes, remember not to be discouraged, for there is another happiness that cannot be measured between poverty and wealth.

Life Needs Gratefulness

Many details and trifles(琐事) in life appear to be neglected by us in a bustling urban life. Some people attribute it to the fickle(浮躁的) ambience over the whole city. Some think that our passion has been ironed out by invariably tedious(沉闷的) life, also some people come to the sensation that they have already been numbed by the fast-paced life.

Is it simple because of fickle ambience? Is it simply because of no passion? Or is it simple because of numbness? Maybe all these contribute a little to the present situation, or maybe none. Actually, in the modern city, what we lack more and more desperately is a heart of consciousness and gratefulness.

There was once a time when I also deemed that we began to lose our direction and become numb without too much affection in this material-flooding world. We were not sure whether the reason why we locked tightly our heart was to eliminate loneliness or to protect ourselves. We did it unconsciously with less and less emotion and smile. So someone said that I was awfully icy to others. Not until one day when I was stricken by a sense of gratitude did I totally change myself.

Yes, life needs gratefulness. Gratefulness is not only confined to love, but also to friendship, family bonds, mutual cherishing as well as constant missing each other.

Gratefulness touches deeply the tenderness of my heart, rendering me ever-profound perception as well as ever-soft emotion. It is like the soft melody of "kiss the rain", so tender, so emotional and so fascinating, leaving me out of all the worldly troubles.

In the past never did I feel the great significance of gratefulness. I had been holding that everything about life would become nothing but turn back to dust at the end of life. Maybe at that time I had seen through life and death, thinking that life was running to the end unceasingly regardless of our sentimental sigh. However, it was a momentary matter that I came to realize life should be upheld and maintained by gratefulness. Then our heart will never feel solitary and have the sense of being loved. Only by stretching out our hands can we give the opportunity to others to hold us!

Affection and gratefulness is the source of my inspiration.

A tiny gratefulness can give us a lasting positive mood, which requires our consciousness and gratefulness. Then with a heart of gratefulness, everything turns out to be gorgeous.

Giving and the feeling of being moved give us a sense of happiness. Maybe, it is my perception of life that we need not own a multitude of wealth, but tons of love, not peerless status, but numerous smiles, not the power to control everything, but someone wiling to do for you and miss you.

Yes, god is fair to anyone. When he closes one of your doors, he will open another for you. Even though I just have a window, I can still embrace sunshine, fresh air, beauteous(美丽的) landscapes. Though the eyesight might be somewhat narrow, it is my world after all.

In this world, I am dancing freely, arranging my life delicately, enjoying my self-staying and craziness as well as mutual cherishing with my friends.

Every drop in life composes a marvelous poem that conveys authentic emotions. Choosing to live alone does not necessarily mean we do not expect the coming of love. Falling in love with rain does not mean we do not adore glorious sunshine. Facing everything toughly does not mean we do not hope a warm arm to lean upon.

Every drop in life and every silk of gratefulness direct me to my real heart and mind.

Make Every Day Count

I was once told by someone that I should end each day by crossing it off my calendar and saying out loud, "There goes another day of my life, never to return again." Try this for yourself, and notice how much it sharpens your focus. When you end a day with the feeling that you would have lived it the same if you had the chance to repeat it, you gain a sense of gratitude that helps you focus on what's really important to you. When you end the day with a feeling of regret or loss, you gain the awareness to try a different approach the next day".

If we're not careful, we don't notice that the days are passing us by. We take the paths of least resistance, sticking within our comfort zone. We watch TV all evening rather than learn skills that will help us advance. We put up with(忍受，容忍) unwarranted criticism, we passively submit to(屈服) requests rather than assert our needs. We allow a lack of confidence to pass up on an opportunity.

Looking back over the past year, or even the past week, by doing things and stretching myself that I feel I have made the most of my days. Or as the quote says, I would live it the same way if allowed to repeat it. But, to use another cliché(陈词滥调), life is not a rehearsal - there is no replay button. Moreover there is no erase and record again facility!
