让你内心变强大的26句话



http://www.lz13.cn/lizhimingyan/5844.html  

1、活着一天,就是有福气,就该珍惜。当我哭泣我没有鞋子穿的时候,我发现有人却没有脚。

2、宁可自己去原谅别人,莫让别人来原谅你。

3、世界原本就不是属于你,因此你用不着抛弃,要抛弃的是一切的执著。万物皆为我所用,但非我所属。

4、别人可以违背因果,别人可以害我们,打我们,毁谤我们。可是我们不能因此而憎恨别人,为什么?我们一定要保有一颗完整的本性和一颗清净的心。

5、你有你的生命观,我有我的生命观,我不干涉你。只要我能,我就感化你。如果不能,那我就认命。

6、如果你准备结婚的话,告诉你一句非常重要的哲学名言「你一定要忍耐包容对方的缺点,世界上没有绝对幸福圆满的婚姻,幸福只是来自于无限的容忍与互相尊重。

7、我的财富并不是因为我拥有很多,而是我要求的很少。

8、不是某人使我烦恼,而是我拿某人的言行来烦恼自己。

9、活在别人的掌声中,是禁不起考验的人。

10、如果你能每天呐喊二十一遍「我用不着为这一点小事而烦恼」,你会发现,你心里有一种不可思议的力量,试试看,很管用的。

11、若能一切随他去,便是世间自在人。

12、感谢上苍我所拥有的,感谢上苍我所没有的。

13、来是偶然的,走是必然的。所以你必须,随缘不变,不变随缘。

14、别人永远对,我永远错,这样子比较没烦恼。

15、愚痴的人,一直想要别人了解他。有智慧的人,却努力的了解自己。

16、对于不可改变的事实,除了认命以外,没有更好的办法了。

17、其实爱美的人,只是与自己谈恋爱罢了。

18、说一句谎话,要编造十句谎话来弥补,何苦呢?

19、当你用烦恼心来面对事物时,你会觉得一切都是业障,世界也会变得丑陋可恨。

20、根本不必回头去看咒骂你的人是谁?如果有一条疯狗咬你一口,难道你也要趴下去反咬他一口吗?

21、狂妄的人有救,自卑的人没有救。

22、你什么时候放下,什么时候就没有烦恼。

23、人之所以痛苦,在于追求错误的东西。

24、与其说是别人让你痛苦,不如说是自己的修养不够。

25、命运负责洗牌,但是玩牌的是我们自己!

26、过错是暂时的遗憾,而错过则是永远的遗憾!

Motto 02102013

The lazier a person is, the more things he needs to do tomorrow.
What seems to us as bitter are often blessings in disguise.

It is through isolation and dedication that one builds for future prosperity.忍得住寂寞, 才能看见繁华


上帝行事由内而外,尘世行事由外而内;尘世让世人摆脱贫穷,耶稣则先让世人摆脱内心的贫穷,然后由他们自己摆脱贫穷;尘世通过改变环境来造就人,耶稣则通过改变人来造就环境;尘世塑造人的行为,而耶稣改变人的本质。
Ezra Taft  Benson (美国前农业部长)

刺激与回应之间存在一段距离, 成长和幸福的关键就在于我们如利用这段距离。

我们能赠与子孙的永存遗产只有两种-----根和翅膀。

如果一个人无法改变自己的思想构造,就永远无法改变现实, 也永远不可能取得进步
 -----Abwar Sadat

在我们的不懈努力下,事情变得迎刃而解, 这并不是因为任务的性质发生了变化,而是因为我们的能力增强了。
------Emerson

真正的变革是由内而外实现的。

“This life is what you make it. No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And baby, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up because if you give up, you'll never find your soulmate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.”
