问候
其实过得还不错,只是心里头有股郁闷的感觉,自己也说不出个所以然。开心吗?其实还蛮开心的,渐渐的看到自己的方向。让我感到比较苦闷的是人事上的事情。自己还是不是很会处理人与人之间的问题,感到非常的苦恼。唉!这就是我需要去学习的地方,处理人的问题。一直都希望有着简单的人际关系,简单的。是我想的太复杂了吗?有时真的不懂该如何处理。带着颗善心去对待大家吧!想先把自己的心念单纯化,对我及其它人都会比较好吧!只是,自己还是会不知所措。。。
时间一直的在过,每当碰到问题或心里起了一些念头时,自己都会去想,我到底在造些什么业?心中都非常的惭愧。净化,广化自己的心。。。
于人事中,心不懂得如何安立。发现自己颗钓举的心,心念都由他人掌控了。
好好的过生活吧!珍惜每一分,每一秒。让自己的心念单纯吧!以一颗善的心,去对待所有的人事物。加油喔!祝福大家,幸福、快乐、安祥。

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People ~ Stephen R.Covey ~
这本书,算起来在我身边已有好一段日子了,只是一直都没把它看完。还记得当初是二姑上了这课程后,觉得受益良多,就向我推荐了这一本书。自己当时是因为课业功课、活动繁多,所以也就不了了之了。这一本在书橱里的书,最近在一段小插曲下,成为了我的心头好。真的很感恩这位友人,那份热衷分享的心。而友人的这段分享却又源自于他的朋友。心中确实觉得非常欢喜。
而自己想在阅读后做一份小小的自我整理,这也是个小小的缘起。当然小小的笔记,也只是对自己的反思,如与原作有出入之处,还请多多包涵、指教。

Part One: Paradigms and Principles
Inside-Out
In life, we all look for quick fixed method, intentionally or unintentionally. We often thought that we couldn't get things done the way we want because we lack of certain techniques that enable us to do so. We are envy of other people, wishing we were just like them. As a result, we spent most of our time, looking for techniques, skills to make us more 'effective' in the way we wish we to be.
Yet, for all those outstanding people, if we are able to observe deeply, that behind every of them, in the very inner part, there stand a very fundamental principle which they hold tightly to. Often, we didn't see it. We saw the fruits of theirs, the personality we wish to have, which we even try to mimic those actions, thinking that if we put on the same cloth, then we will look alike. We put the secondary before primary; we focus on Personality Ethic over Character Ethic. We want to 'look' effective without knowing what effective really mean.
To change our life, we must first change ourselves. To change ourselves, to go through the revolution, then we must first able to change the way we see things. As being is seeing, what we see is highly interrelated to what we are. And, to enable this paradigm shifts (to a principle-centered paradigm), we must first know how we see things, what actually has gone wrong with it? Sometimes, the way we see the problem, is the problem itself.
A principle-centered paradigm. Principles are deep, fundamental truths that have universal applications, that enable people create a wide variety of practices to deal with different situations. Principles are guidelines for human conduct that are proven to have enduring, permanent value, and are self-evident.
the more accurate and functional they will be.
Correct maps will infinitely impact our personal and interpersonal effectiveness far more than any amount of effort expended on changing our attitudes and behaviors."
In every phase of life, as in the principle of process, there are sequential stages of growth and development, be it in the physical area, emotional maturity, human relationship, or even personal character building. And, in life, there is no shortcut, we just can't skip some of the vital steps to save time and effort and still get the desired results. Our level of development is impossible to pretend -- in a long run.
As we look deep into our problems, we begin to realized that it can't be solved on the superficial level, and this is why we need a new level of thinking -- an 'inside-out' approach, to start with self; with our paradigms, our character, our motives.
每一天,都有许多的感触、感动... ...
想把每个想法、每个启发、每个感触... ... 之中的点点滴滴都以笔墨留下痕迹。
我太贪心了吗?我太着急了吗?深深感受这个脑袋还真的不怎么好使唤... ...
当初的感动、梦想、祈望... ... 当初的心,有时候... ... 不见了、迷失了、忘记了。
一切皆始于心... ...
不见的感动、迷失的方向、忘记的初心... ... 就找回来吧!发现了,就找回来吧!
不稳当的心,有不稳当的路。但不要放弃、切莫气馁... 继续找吧!
这些都是生命的考验,放弃了就等于放弃了生命、放弃了人生... ...
人生这道路,没有捷径... ...
倒塌了,是基础没有扎稳... ...
迷路了,是方向没有确立... ...
不断地发现... ... 不断地学习... ...
越来越清楚... ... 越走越踏实... ...
谢谢您,诸善知识。

这一些日子,感觉很累,没什么活力。想要突破,却又无可奈何。一直在想,当我在捍卫自己的自由时,我是否也侵犯了其他人的自由?我父母关心儿女的自由。我想他们也同样充满了矛盾吧!面对着我这么一个女儿,有时也不懂如何是好。我是不是只站在自己的立场而已,忽略了他们的感受?我不知道。开心些吧!把视线转移,生命会更美好。
啊... ... 毕业照。怎么这么小的事情也犹豫不已。我不想拍照。我真的有那么的不想拍吗?爸爸妈妈想拍吗?拍吧!就拍吧!当作个留念也不错。发现自己会想做些东西来证明其他人是错的,我是对的。你坚持说要这么做,好!我依你。效果出来不好时,看!是不是,我都说了嘛!不听我的。这种心态,是解决不了问题,只会让大家更为难堪而已。不管当初做的决定,是于什么样的情况下促成的。一切都已经过去了。谁对谁错有那么重要吗?每个人都有他应负起的责任。你无法坚持自己的看法,而随他人去,这是你要负起的责任。没有人会一百巴仙确定以后会是怎么样的。一直把矛头指向别人,自己是无法从中成长、学习。因为我们从一开始都不认为是自己需要反省,一切都是别人的问题,我们又如何去改进呢?一切都要先往自己内心观照。当我们把手指向其他人时,其余的四只手指是指向自己的。
性格改變,你的人生跟著改變。
期许自己每天都往正面思考,为自己以及身边的人带来正面的能量。
期许自己每天都能一颗感恩的心去面对生命的每个挑战、不快与挫折,这一切皆为我修行的资粮。
每一个地方、时刻,皆为我修行的道场;善友之家如此,自己家也是如此。
每个人皆为我善知识,都有我应学习的地方。
安身之处,安心之道。我怎么就忘记了呢?每个地方,每个人,每个时刻。阿弥陀佛。
p/s: 感恩,感恩这几天读的书。Don't sweat the small stuff... and it's all small stuff. 爸爸妈妈回来了,有了多一些人的声音。妹妹问起了我 ... ... 嘻,不好意识,我还没做好心理准备。唉,老毛病。是我需克服的问题。当你把它当成是个问题时,这就是你的问题,唯有把话说开。当你觉得其实也什么好隐瞒的,这也就不再是你的问题了,因为这已经从你的视线移开了。加油!

于无常变化中,去寻找那不变的法则——法;是本来如此、普遍如此、 必然如此。于这一阵子看了些书籍,也发现确实是这么一回事。世间万物一直在变,然于变化之中,有着不变的理则。这一切一切佛陀都如实地告诉我们,只是我们还无从体会。经典中的“欢喜信授奉行”,包含了古人的智慧。法喜充满,于听法、闻法后的一份喜悦,我深深的感受到了。感恩,感恩自己有机会听闻佛法。愿世世以三宝为生命的依止处。
我们也许不能事事都如己意,但却能事事都与佛法相应。也正如继哲师父所说,“佛法智慧深广如大海,世上无一法可比,教成智慧福德圆满者,唯从三宝中求。” 阿弥陀佛。

文明是 ... ...
一句问候,一杯清茶,一张热情的笑脸,能拉近我们的距离,能把文明的礼仪传播出去。
文明是蓝色的,蓝色代表着包容与理解。
包容与理解能唤起人们对爱的渴望,换来人们期待的和谐之美。
文明是绿色的,绿色展示着生命和希望。
有爱就有无限的希望,有文明就有美丽的家园,是绿色的文明穿过幽暗的岁月,敲开冰封的心扉,通达升华的精神境界,激发起中华民族无坚不摧的民族凝聚力与民族的自豪感。
文明是白色的,它告诉我们一定要保持一颗纯洁、纯真的心,面对你爱的人和爱你的人。

“工作,有如讀書一般,是我們生命的一部份,
也是我們人生中的一個階段。
不管在哪一個領域,要如梁啟超所言:敬業樂業。
敬業,是對他人展現我們應當負起的責任;
樂業,是讓自己在負起責任的同時輕鬆自在的度過。
人生進入到讀「社會大學」的這一階段,
不能再以逃避的心態去面對,
反之,應當調整心境,去迎對這所大學的學習與考驗。
抱著謙虛學習的正面心態,去探索這世間的人事物……
相信會有精彩豐富的人生體驗。”

愿我能时时持有颗单纯、感恩的心去尽我一份小小的力量去帮助有缘人。

生命的自信,生命的自在,生命的方向... ... 我正在走着寻找生命的路。我相信,我可以。电视的声音,此起彼落,这就是我在家的考验吧!我已不可能继续呆在房间里了,这对我们的关系一点帮助也没有。我需要做的是适应、学习。我不想再做无谓的解释,说明了。做出来吧!用你的行动来证明。不要害怕,勇敢面对自己,面对家人,面对生命!学习去体谅,学习去专注,学习去认真,学习去包容,学习去感恩。加油!

记得去年的今天,友人送了我这一首歌,在我们家共修后的时段。很感激这一位朋友,很感激善友之家的住众、朋友。当时,我闭起眼睛,仔细地聆听。心中是充满了感动,那音乐,那声音... ... 之中又带有一熟悉的感觉。谢谢您,佛陀。在我无助彷徨的时候,在我不知所措时候,在我失去方向的时候... ...
哈哈,原来在不知不觉中,这颗无心插柳的种子已冲破土地的障碍,慢慢地发芽了。发现自己在这一段时间里,慢慢改变、成长了。其实,是一切因缘的成就啊!想起了友人当时的分享——四重恩。于不同时段,都会有不同的体悟吧!也才能于时时刻刻中,让生命充满法喜、喜悦。谢谢你。
p/s: 自己接触佛教,学习佛法是在进大学才开始的;自己也从未真正的去体会,实践。总觉得自己付出的很少很少,得到的却是很多很多... ...

p/s: 这次难得在家过生日,想做些什么的... ... 妹妹一直吵着说想吃 cheesecake,今天下午自己也上网找了些资料,明天和二姑去槟城时看是否成功买到材料,加油!以往生日都满怀期待家人为我庆祝或做些什么的,今年想换个方式,想为他们准备些东西... ... 嘻嘻!
谢谢你们,爸爸妈妈,我爱你们。

Change Your Thinking
It will take just 37 seconds to read this and change your thinking.
Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room.
One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs.
His bed was next to the room's only window.
The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back.
The men talked for hours on end.
They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation.
Every afternoon, when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window.
The man in the other bed began to live for those one hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside.
The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake.
Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.
As the man by the window described all this in exquisite details, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine this picturesque scene
One warm afternoon, the man by the window described a parade passing by.
Although the other man could not hear the band - he could see it in his mind's eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words.
Days, weeks and months passed.
One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep.
She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.
As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone.
Slowly, painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the real world outside.
He strained to slowly turn to look out the window besides the bed.
It faced a blank wall.
The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window.
The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall.
She said, 'Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you.'
Epilogue:
There is tremendous happiness in making others happy, despite our own situations.
Shared grief is half the sorrow, but happiness when shared, is doubled.
If you want to feel rich, just count all the things you have that money can't buy.
'Today is a gift, that is why it is called The Present.'
Do not keep this letter.
I pray you will forward it to all your friends .
这是封友人转发给我的文章,觉得蛮有意思,就把祂‘剪贴’了下来。生命是宝贵的,感恩自己还有呼吸。愿自己能活出生命的色彩,也把这份欢乐带给所有人!
