"我感激上帝賜我殘缺。透過傷殘，我找到自己、我的工作、我的主宰。”— 海倫凱勒
difficulties are opportunities to better things; they are stepping stones to greater experience. perhaps someday you will be thankful for some temporary failure in a particular direction. when one door closes, another always opens.
困難是好景的機遇，是重任的墊腳石。也許有一天你會感謝一些暫時性的錯敗，當一扇門關閉時，一定會有另一扇門打開。
“one of life’s gifts is that each of us, no matter how tired and downtrodden, finds reasons for thankfulness.” — j. robert moskin
"生命賦予我們每個人能力，無論多麽疲倦或被踐踏過，我們都可以找到感恩的理由。”
相反，在施予的時候，不要介懷對方感恩與否。
“blessed are those who give without remembering. and blessed are those who take without forgetting.” — bernard meltzer
幸福的是那些施予而又不記著的人；有福的是那些受恩而又不忘記的人。

“if you concentrate on finding whatever is good in every situation, you will discover that your life will suddenly be filled with gratitude, a feeling that nurtures the soul.” — rabbi harold kushner
如果在每一件事情上你能夠集中注意力尋找好的，那麽你會突然發現你的生活充滿欣慰感激——一種培養心靈的感覺。
感恩令人得到更多。
