The Direction of Happiness

A young man was walking by the lakeside when he suddenly saw a piece of gold glittering in the water. He was so happy that he jumped into the water to fsh for it.But he couldn't reach it on matter how he tried his best.Being wet,dirty and tired,he had to disembark for a rest.Unexpectedly,after the water became placid,the gold appeared again.

He jumped into the water again unwillingly,but in vain,so he had to disembark again to sit beside the lake. He thought，“Where is the gold coin in the water on earth?I have seen it clearly,why can't I fnd it even though I have tried so hard?”After the water became placid,the gold coin appeared once again.So once again he jumped into the water to fsh for it.He did it again and again,but in vain,which made him really unwilling to accept.

At that moment,his father came to look for him. Seeing his son wet and dirty,he asked，“What happened in the world?Why are you so embarrassed?”

His son answered，“I see a piece of gold coin in the water clearly,but I can't get it anyway！”

His father saw a gold coin seemed on the placid water,so he looked up at the tree and said to his son，“Look！It's not a gold coin but the refection of the sheet metal that is hung on the tree.”

Ordinary people are always busy running about honorary and illusory things while all these just consist in greed,which eclipses our ability of telling right from wrong. Some people think life is hard and we must fnd a way of releasing at once！So they turn to seek for religious belief；but if religious belief has no right understanding,suggestions or ideas,you will go astray.So we should choose the right direction of life,get rid of evil and cultivating good and comprehend truth.

Worldly substance is illusory like the refection of the water,so we should often have a contented mind and can understand,tolerate and thank everything,which will reach perfection. In this way,you'll be even-tempered and good-humored every day and have a happy life.

幸福的方向

一位年輕人走到湖邊散步，突然看到水中有一塊閃閃發(fā)亮的金幣。他很高興，就趕快跳進(jìn)水里撈取。但是，無論怎么努力，他都撈不到金幣。他渾身又濕又臟，非常疲倦，只好上來坐在岸邊休息。沒想到湖水平靜之后，金幣又顯現(xiàn)了出來。

他很不甘心地又跳下水，結(jié)果還是沒撈到，只得再上來坐著。他心想：“水中的金幣到底在哪里呢？我明明看到了，為什么費(fèi)了這么大勁兒還撈不到呢？”等水面又恢復(fù)平靜后，金幣再次出現(xiàn)。于是，他又跳下去撈，如此反復(fù)都徒勞無功，他實(shí)在很不甘心。

這時，父親出來找他。看到兒子全身濕淋淋、臟兮兮的，就問他：“到底發(fā)生了什么事？你為什么會如此狼狽？”

兒子回答說：“我明明看到水中有金幣，可怎么撈都撈不到！”

父親看到平靜的水面上好像真有一個金幣，又抬頭看看樹上，就對兒子說：“你看！哪是什么金幣，那是掛在樹上的金屬片，投射在水中呈現(xiàn)的幻影罷了！”

凡夫總是為名利、空幻的東西在奔波、辛勞，而這一切都只在于一貪念，而貪念往往會蒙蔽我們辨別是非的能力。有的人認(rèn)為，人生很苦，要趕快找解脫的方法，因此轉(zhuǎn)而尋求宗教信仰；但是，如果信仰沒有正知、正見、正念，路就會走偏了。所以，我們應(yīng)該要選擇正確的人生方向，斷惡修善，領(lǐng)悟真理。

世間的事物不過如水中倒影般虛無，因此要常懷知足之心，對人生事物能善解、包容、感恩，凡事就能圓融，這樣就能天天過得心平氣和，擁有一個幸福的人生。

The Uncared-for Happiness

In a painter's house,I saw a very special painting,which was a piece of mounted white paper,on the left middle of which there was a black stain.

I didn't understand what gifted pen such a black stain was that the painter hung it on the most prominent position right in the middle of the wall. I kept pondering for a long time,but my mind was still a complete blank.

I asked the artist for advice.

The painter said，“This painting of mine is called‘Happiness.'”

“Happiness?I don't understand.”In my memory,no artist could paint happiness.

The painter said，“The black stain in the middle stands for pain. When every person sees this painting of mine,he or she only sees this painful black stain,but can't see the happiness in the background.Isn't our life in this way?How much happiness we turn a blind eye to,but we are shut out by the minimal pain.”

I said，“In your mind,this painting should be a piece of white paper.”

He said，“Without pain,we won't even more see happiness.”

I come to see that we always focus on the pain while the happiness is often the part we have overlooked.

被忽略的快樂

在一位畫家的屋里，我見到了一幅非常特別的畫。那是一張被裝裱起來的白紙，在中間偏左上的位置有一塊黑漬。

我不明白這塊黑漬到底算什么妙筆生花，被畫家掛在了墻壁正當(dāng)中最為顯眼的位置上。我琢磨了很長時間，頭腦里仍然是一片空白。

我向畫家請教。

畫家說：“我的這幅畫叫‘快樂’。”

“快樂？我不明白。”在我的記憶中，沒有哪個畫家能畫出快樂來。

畫家說：“中間這塊黑漬是痛苦，每個人看到我的這幅畫時，都是只看到這塊痛苦的黑漬，卻看不到背景里的快樂。我們的生活不是這樣嗎？多少快樂，我們都視而不見，卻被微小的痛苦遮住了雙眼。”

我說：“按照你的說法，這張畫應(yīng)該是一張白紙。”

他說：“沒有痛苦，我們更見不到快樂。”

我明白了，我們總是盯著痛苦，而快樂常常是被我們忽略的那部分。

The Catalogue of Happiness

“On my head pour only the sweet waters of serenity. Give me the gift of the untroubled mind.”

Once,as a young man full of exuberant fancy,I undertook to draw up a catalogue of the acknowledged happiness of life. As other men sometimes tabulate lists of properties they own or would like to own,I set down my inventory of earthly desirable：health,love,beauty,talent,power,riches and fame.

When my inventory was completed,I proudly showed it to a sage who had been the mentor and spiritual model of my youth. Perhaps I was trying to impress him with my precocious wisdom.Anyway,I handed him the list.“This，”I told him confidently.“is the sum of mortal happiness.If a man could possess them all,he would be as a god.”

“An excellent list，”he said thoughtfully.“But it appears,my young friend,you have omitted the most important element of all. You have forgotten the one ingredient,lacking which each possession becomes a hideous torment.”

“And what，”I asked，“is that missing ingredient?”

With a pencil stub he crossed out my entire tabulation and wrote down：peace of mind.“This is the gift God reserves，”he said.

“Talent and beauty he gives to many. Wealth is commonplace,fame not rare.But peace of mind—that is his fnal guerdon of approval,the fondest insignia of his love.Most men are never blessed with it；others wait all their lives—yes,far into advanced age—for this gift to descend upon them.”

人生幸福的目錄

“只將寧靜蜜汁醍醐灌頂，賜我以無憂心境。”

我年輕時曾充滿豐富的幻想，著手起草了一份被公認(rèn)為人生幸福的目錄。就像他人有時會把他們擁有或想擁有的財(cái)產(chǎn)列成表那樣，我把世人想要的東西——健康、愛情、美麗、才能、權(quán)力、財(cái)富和名譽(yù)——列了一個詳細(xì)目錄。

我列完這個詳細(xì)目錄后，自豪地讓一位智者過目，他曾是我少年時代的輔導(dǎo)老師和精神楷模。也許我是想以自己早熟的智慧給他留下深刻印象。總之，我把那張目錄遞給了他。我充滿自信地對他說：“這是人類幸福的總和。一個人能擁有所有這些，就和神一樣了。”

他若有所思地說：“是一張出色的目錄。可是，我年輕的朋友，你遺漏了最重要的一個要素。你忘記了一個因素，缺少了它，每項(xiàng)財(cái)產(chǎn)都會變成可怕的痛苦。”

我問道：“那遺漏的這個因素是什么？”

他用鉛筆頭劃掉了我的整張表格，寫下了：心靜。“這是上帝保留的禮物。”他說。

“他把才能和美麗賜予許多人。財(cái)富是平凡的，名望也不稀罕，但心靜才是他恩準(zhǔn)的最后賜賞，是他最溫柔的愛的象征。多數(shù)人從來沒有這種福氣，有些人則等了一輩子——是的，一直等到了老態(tài)龍鐘，才等到這個賞賜降臨到他們身上。”

Don't Keep Happiness away from Us

A college student once told me，“I don't need to be happy—just successful.”

It's an odd juxtaposition. She needn't be happy，“just successful.”She places one in opposition to the other.

Students are today's expressions of tomorrow's practices.

I remember from my own undergraduate years of a headline in my campus newspaper，“Why Aren't We Happy?”As the headline suggested,we fell short of leading joyful lives. Yet at least we are still looking for happiness.Like my success-seeking student,why do many of us want to give up happiness?

I've often failed to enjoy Sunday because of my schedule on Monday. At bottom,it was simply anticipatory anxiety over the work of the week ahead—I fear that there would be unexpected complications or that I would fail to measure in some way.Usually,when Monday came,I did quite well.Much of what I worried about never happened.

Happiness has its own underpinning. There's completeness to happiness that does not allow us to exclude our sense of the person we should be.Pleasure is certainly possible in less-than-honorable actions.But the experience of happiness requires more；it is pleasure taken in worthy things.

True happiness requires choices that develop into habits that evolve into character. And that's work we can't delegate.

So the essential first step is trying to lessen the anxiety—one that can avoid it. It requires us to brave everything unexpected and face all the annoyances of life calmly.

別讓幸福遠(yuǎn)離我們

一名大學(xué)生曾告訴我說：“我不需要幸福，只要成功。”

這是一個奇怪的交叉對比。她不需要幸福，“只要成功”。她把這兩者對立了起來。

學(xué)生今日之言就是明日之行。

我記得上大學(xué)時，校報(bào)上有一篇文章的標(biāo)題是：“為什么我們不幸福？”這個標(biāo)題是說：我們?nèi)鄙倏鞓返纳睢Ｈ欢覀冎辽偃栽趯ふ倚腋！槭裁次覀冎械脑S多人像那個追求成功的學(xué)生一樣要放棄幸福呢？

我常常不能去享受星期天，是因?yàn)樾瞧谝坏墓ぷ鬟M(jìn)度。實(shí)際上，這僅僅是提前對未來一周的工作感到憂慮，我擔(dān)心會發(fā)生難以預(yù)料的麻煩，要么是擔(dān)心自己在某些方面無法進(jìn)行估量。通常，星期一來臨時，我做得還不錯。我擔(dān)心的很多事情從來沒有發(fā)生過。

幸福自有其道德基礎(chǔ)。幸福的完整性讓我們不得不考慮自己應(yīng)該做什么樣的人。當(dāng)然，一些不怎么光彩的行為也可能會產(chǎn)生快樂。但要想體驗(yàn)幸福，需要付出更多；正是快樂讓我們體會到事物的價值。

真正的幸福需要作出選擇，這些選擇可以形成習(xí)慣，從而發(fā)展成為性格。這是我們無法越俎代庖的工作。

因此，獲取幸福的首要一步就是盡量減少憂慮，這關(guān)鍵的第一步能讓我們避開憂慮。它要求我們勇于接受毫無預(yù)想的一切，坦然面對生活中的一切煩惱。

The Secret of Happiness

There was a businessman,who sent his son to the most wise man in the world to ask for the secret of happiness. After going through all hardships for 40 days,this boy fnally found the wise man's beautiful castle.

When he entered the castle,the boy didn't meet a saint,but witnessed an unusually lively scene：business people came in and out,in every corner people were talking with each other and a small band was playing gentle music. The local delicacies was placed on a table.The wise man was talking with all the people one by one,so the boy had to wait for two hours for his turn.

The wise man attentively listened to the boy's reason for the visit,but he said at this point he didn't have time to explain the secret of happiness to him. He suggested the boy go around the palace and returned to see him after two hours.

“At the same time I ask you to do one thing，”the wise man said as he handed a spoon to the boy and dripped two drops of oil into it，“When you walk,take this spoon and do not let the oil spill.”

The boy began walking up and down the steps of the palace,his eyes always focusing on the spoon. Two hours later,he returned to the wise man.

“Have you seen the Persian carpets of my restaurant?Have you seen my garden the gardening master spent 10 years creating?Have you noticed those beautiful sheepskin volumes of my library?”the wise man asked.

The boy was very embarrassed,admitting he didn't see,for what he was only concerned about was the thing the wise man entrusted to him—namely,not to let the drops of oil in the spoon spill.

“Then you go back to see all kinds of rare things in here，”the wise man said，“If you don't know a person's home,you won't be able to trust him.”

Feeling more easily,the boy picked up the spoon and walked back into the palace. This time,he noticed all the artworks hung on the ceiling and walls,viewed the garden and the surrounding mountain scenery and saw the delicate flowers.When he returned to the wise man again,the boy dwelt on all he saw.

“But where's the two drops of oil I gave you?”the wise man asked.

Looking at the spoon,the boy found the oil had all been spilled.

“So this is the only warning I want to give you，”the wise man said，“the secret of happiness lies in enjoying all the wonders of the world and at the same time never forget the two drops of oil in the spoon.”

幸福的秘密

有位商人把兒子派往世界上最有智慧的人那里，去討教幸福的秘密。這個男孩歷盡艱辛，走了40天，終于找到了智者的美麗城堡。

男孩走進(jìn)城堡，沒有遇到一位圣人，卻目睹了一個熱鬧非凡的場面：商人們進(jìn)進(jìn)出出，每個角落都有人在交談，一支小樂隊(duì)在演奏輕柔的樂曲。一張桌子上擺滿了當(dāng)?shù)氐拿牢都央取Ｖ钦哒粋€個同所有的人談話，所以男孩必須要等兩個小時才能輪到。

智者認(rèn)真地聽了男孩所講的來訪原因，但說此刻他沒有時間向男孩講解幸福的秘密。他建議男孩在他的宮殿里轉(zhuǎn)上一圈，兩個小時后再來找他。

“與此同時，我要求你辦一件事，”智者邊說邊把一個湯匙遞給男孩，并在里面滴進(jìn)了兩滴油，“當(dāng)你走路時，拿好這個湯匙，不要讓油灑出來。”

男孩開始沿著宮殿的臺階上上下下，眼睛始終盯著湯匙不放。兩小時后，他回到了智者面前。

“你看到我餐廳里的波斯地毯了嗎？看到園藝大師花了10年心血創(chuàng)造出來的花園了嗎？注意到我圖書館那些美麗的羊皮卷文獻(xiàn)了嗎？”智者問道。

男孩感到十分尷尬，承認(rèn)他什么也沒看到，他當(dāng)時唯一關(guān)注的只是智者交付給他的事，也就是不要讓湯匙里的兩滴油灑出來。

“那你就轉(zhuǎn)回去見識一下我這里的種種珍奇之物吧，”智者說道，“如果你不了解一個人的家，你就不能信任他。”

男孩輕松多了，他拿起湯匙重新回到宮殿里漫步。這一次，他注意到了天花板和墻壁上懸掛的所有藝術(shù)品，觀賞了花園和四周的山景，看到了嬌嫩的花兒。當(dāng)他再回到智者面前時，男孩仔細(xì)地講述了他所見到的一切。

“可是，我交給你的兩滴油在哪里呢？”智者問道。

男孩向湯匙望去，發(fā)現(xiàn)油已經(jīng)灑光了。

“那么，這就是我要給你的唯一忠告，”智者說，“幸福的秘密在于欣賞世界上所有的奇觀異景，同時永遠(yuǎn)不要忘記湯匙里的兩滴油。”

The Law of Happy Life

It is okay to make mistakes. Making mistakes is something we all do,and I'm still a fine and worthwhile person when I make them.There is no reason for me to get upset when I make a mistake.I am trying,so even if I make a mistake,I am going to continue trying.I can handle making a mistake.It is okay for others to make mistakes,too.I will accept mistakes in myself and in others.

Everybody doesn't have to love me. Not everybody has to love me or even like me.I don't necessarily like everybody,I know,so why should everybody else like me?I enjoy being liked and being loved,but if somebody doesn't like me,I will still be okay.I cannot make somebody like me,as somebody cannot get me to like them.I don't need approval all the time.If someone does not approve of me,I will still be okay.

I don't have to control things. I will survive if things are different than what I want them to be.I can accept things the way they are,people the way they are and myself the way I am.There is no reason to get upset if I can't change things to ft my idea of how they ought to be.There is no reason why I should have to like everything.Even if I don't like it,I can't live with it.

I'm responsible for my day. I'm responsible for how I feel and what I do.Nobody can make me feel anything.If I have a rotten day,I'm the one who allows it to be that way.If I have a great day,I'm the one who deserves credit for being positive.It is not the responsibility of other people to change so that I can feel better.I'm the one who is in charge of my life.

I can handle it when things go wrong. I don't need to watch out for things to go wrong all the time.Things usually go just fne,and when they don't,I can handle it.I don't have to waste my energy worrying.The sky won't fall in；things will be okay.

I can do it. I don't need someone else to take care of my problem.I can do it.I can take care of myself.I can make decisions for myself.I can think for myself.I don't have to depend on somebody else to take care of me.

I can play to the score. There is more than one way to do something.More than one person has had good ideas that will work.There is no one and only“best”way.Everybody has ideas that are worthwhile.Some may take more sense to me than others,but everyone's ideas are worthwhile while everyone has something worthwhile to contribute.

幸福生活的定律

犯錯誤也沒什么大不了的。我們都會犯錯誤。就算犯錯誤，我還是一個恪盡職守的人才。我犯錯誤后，完全沒有理由忐忑不安。因?yàn)槲乙恢痹谂Γ约词狗噶隋e誤，也會繼續(xù)努力。我能正確對待犯錯誤。別人犯錯誤也沒關(guān)系。我會接受自己犯錯誤，也會接受別人犯錯誤。

并不是人人都得愛我。不是每個人都得愛我或喜歡我。我不一定喜歡我認(rèn)識的每一個人，所以為什么其他每個人都應(yīng)該喜歡我呢？盡管我樂意被人喜歡或被人愛，但如果有人不喜歡我，我仍會好好的。我無法迫使某個人喜歡我，就像某個人也不能迫使我喜歡他一樣。我不需要時時刻刻得到認(rèn)可。如果有人不認(rèn)可我，我仍會好好的。

我不必事事都控制。就是事情和我想的不一樣，我也照樣活著。我能接受事情本來的樣子，接受人們本來的面貌，接受本真的我。如果我不能讓事情成為我想要的樣子，也沒有什么理由忐忑不安。我沒有理由要喜歡世間的一切。即使不喜歡，我仍能忍受。

我對自己的每一天負(fù)責(zé)。我對自己的感覺和自己的所為負(fù)責(zé)。沒有人能強(qiáng)迫我對一切事情的感覺。如果我一天過得很糟，那是我對自己的放任自流。如果我一天過得很棒，那是我態(tài)度積極，應(yīng)該受到贊揚(yáng)。其他人沒有責(zé)任為了讓我感覺更好而改變。我是掌握自己人生的主人。

出了問題，我能處理。我不必時刻擔(dān)心事情會出錯。事情常常會順利進(jìn)行，就算不能順利進(jìn)行，我也能處理好。我不必浪費(fèi)時間去杞人憂天。天不會塌下來，一切都會好起來。

我能行。我不需要別人來處理我的問題。我能行。我能照顧好自己，能自己作出決定，能自己思考。我不必依靠別人來照顧我。

我能隨機(jī)應(yīng)變。做事方法不止一種。不止一個人有奏效的妙方。也沒有哪一種方法“無懈可擊”。每個人都有值得一試的主意。有些可能對我更有幫助，但每個人的主意都有可取之處，每個人都能想出一些好辦法。

The Ways of Happiness

I live in the land of Disney,Hollywood,where the sun shines all the year. You may think people in such a glamorous place brimming over with fun are happier than others.If so,you have some mistakes about the nature of happiness.

Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common.Fun is what we experience during an act.Happiness is what we experience after an act.It is a deeper,more abiding emotion.

The way people frmly believe that life full of joy and away from pain equaling happiness actually diminishes their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equated with happiness,pain must be equated with unhappiness.But in fact,the opposite is true：more times than not,things that lead to happiness involve some pain.

As a result,many people avoid the very endeavors that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage,raising children,professional achievement,religious commitment,civic or charitable work and self-improvement.

Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he's honest,he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment.For commitment is in fact quite painful.The single life is flled with fun,adventure and excitement.Marriage has such movement,but they are not its most distinguishing features.

Similarly,couples who choose not to have children are in favor of painless fun over painful happiness. They can dine out whenever they want,travel wherever they want and sleep as late as they want.Couples with infants are lucky to get a whole night's sleep or a three-day vacation.

But couples who decide not to have children never experience the pleasure of hugging them or tucking them into bed at night. They never know the joy of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild.

But these forms of fun do not contribute in any way to my happiness. Writing,raising children,creating deep relationship with my wife and trying to do good in the world will bring me more happiness.

Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations we can ever come to. It liberates time：now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness.It liberates money：buying that new car or those fancy clothes won't increase our happiness now.And it liberates us from envy：we now understand that all those rich and glamorous people we were so sure are happy because actually they are not be happy at all.

The moment we understand that fun doesn't bring happiness,we will begin to lead our lives differently. The effect can be surely life-transforming.

幸福的方式

我住在好萊塢的迪士尼樂園，那里一年四季陽光普照。你也許以為生活在那樣富有魅力、充滿樂趣的地方一定比別的地方的人幸福。假如這樣的話，你就對幸福的真諦有些誤解。

很多聰明人仍把幸福和樂趣相提并論。其實(shí)，樂趣和幸福幾乎或根本沒有共同之處。樂趣是我們行為過程中的體驗(yàn)。幸福是我們行為過后的體驗(yàn)。它是一種更深刻、更持久的感情。

人們堅(jiān)信充滿歡樂、遠(yuǎn)離痛苦的生活方式就等于幸福，其實(shí)減少了他們獲得真正幸福的機(jī)會。如果歡樂和愉快等同幸福，那痛苦就一定等同不幸。但事實(shí)上恰恰相反：多數(shù)情況下，能帶來幸福的事物常常包含一些痛苦。

因此，許多人避開的那些努力正是真正幸福的源泉。他們害怕那些肯定會帶來痛苦的事情，比如結(jié)婚、撫養(yǎng)子女、專業(yè)成就、承擔(dān)宗教義務(wù)、社會或慈善事業(yè)及自我改善。

即使一個單身漢對約會越來越不滿意，你問他為什么不想結(jié)婚時，如果他誠實(shí)，也會告訴你，他害怕承擔(dān)義務(wù)。因?yàn)槌袚?dān)義務(wù)確實(shí)非常痛苦。獨(dú)身生活充滿樂趣、冒險(xiǎn)和激情。盡管婚姻也有這樣的活動，但大為遜色。

同樣，選擇不要孩子的夫婦都贊成沒有痛苦的快樂，而不要痛苦的幸福。他們可以隨時出去吃飯，隨便到什么地方旅游，想睡多晚就睡多晚。有小孩子的夫妻能睡一晚上或有三天假期，算是幸運(yùn)的了。

可是，決定不要孩子的夫婦絕不會體會到擁抱孩子或晚上給孩子掖被子時的樂趣。他們絕不會明白看著孩子長大或逗弄孫子孫女的喜悅。

不過，這些形式的樂趣無論如何都不是我說的幸福。寫作、撫養(yǎng)孩子、加深和妻子的感情與盡力做善事會給我?guī)砀嗟男腋！?

理解并接受真正的幸福和娛樂無關(guān)，我們卻能獲得最大限度的解放。它解放時間：現(xiàn)在，我們可以把更多時間用于那些能真正增加我們幸福的活動。它解放金錢：買那輛新車或那些時尚衣服現(xiàn)在不會增加我們的幸福。而且它把我們從嫉妒中解放出來：我們現(xiàn)在理解了那些我們確信幸福、令人向往的富人，因?yàn)樗麄兤鋵?shí)根本不幸福。

我們懂得了娛樂不會帶來幸福，就會開始以不同的方式生活。其效果肯定會改變?nèi)松?

The Door to Happiness

Happiness is like a pebble dropped into a pool to set in motion an ever-widening circle of ripples. As Stevenson said，“Being happy is a duty.”

There is no exact defnition of the word—happiness. Happy people are happy for all sorts of reasons.The key is not wealth or physical well-being,for we findbeggars,invalids and so-called failures are extremely happy.

Being happy is a sort of unexpected dividend. But staying happy is an accomplishment,a triumph of soul and character.It is not selfsh to strive for it.It is,indeed,a duty to us and others.

Being unhappy is like an infectious disease；it causes people to shrink away from the sufferer. He soon fnds himself alone,miserable and embittered.There is,however,a cure that seems ridiculous but simple：if you don't feel happy,pretend to be！

It works. Before long you will fnd that instead of repelling people,you attract them.You will discover how deeply rewarding it is to be the center of wider and wider circles of goodwill.

Then the make-believe becomes a reality. You possess the secret of peace of mind and can forget yourself in being of service to others.

Being happy,once it is realized as a duty and established as a habit,opens door into mysterious gardens thronged with grateful friends.

幸福之門

幸福就像掉進(jìn)池塘里的一枚鵝卵石，漸漸蕩起一圈圈漣漪，不斷向外擴(kuò)散。就像史蒂文森所說：“幸福是一種責(zé)任。”

“幸福”這個詞沒有確切的定義，幸福的人之所以幸福，有各種各樣的理由。關(guān)鍵不在財(cái)富或健康，因?yàn)槲覀儼l(fā)現(xiàn)乞丐、殘疾人和所謂的失敗者都特別快樂。

幸福是一種意想不到的紅利。但保持幸福是一種成就，是靈魂和品格的成功。追求幸福并不是自私，其實(shí)是對自己和他人的一種責(zé)任。

郁郁寡歡就像傳染病，這使人們常常對郁郁寡歡的人退避三舍。他很快會發(fā)現(xiàn)自己孤獨(dú)、痛苦和難過。然而，有一種治療方法看似荒唐，其實(shí)簡單：如果你覺得不幸福，就假裝幸福！

這很管用。不久，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)，自己會吸引他人，而不是令人不快。你會發(fā)現(xiàn)以善意為中心、越來越寬廣的交際圈是多么有益，深得人心。

于是，假裝的幸福就成了一種事實(shí)。你擁有內(nèi)心平靜的秘訣，就能在幫助他人時忘記自我。

一旦意識到保持幸福心境是一種責(zé)任并形成一種習(xí)慣，就能打開神秘花園的門，那里聚集著滿懷感激的朋友們。

Happiness Doesn't Need a List

A man and his girlfriend were married. It was a large celebration.

All of their friends and family came to see the lovely ceremony and to partake of the festivities and celebrations. All had wonderful time.

The bride was gorgeous in her white wedding gown and the groom was very dashing in his black tuxedo. Everyone could tell that the love they had for each other was true.

A few months later,the wife came to the husband with a proposal，“I read in a magazine,a while ago,about how we can strengthen our marriage. Each of us will write a list of the things that we fnd a bit annoying with the other person.Then,we can talk about how we can fx them together and make our lives happier together.”

The husband agreed. So each of them went to a separate room in the house and thought of the things that annoyed them about the other.They thought about this question for the rest of the day and wrote down what they came up with.

The next morning,at the breakfast table,they decided that they would go over their lists.

“I'll start，”offered the wife. She took out her list.It had many items on it.Enough to fill three pages,in fact.As she started reading the list of the little annoyances,she noticed that tears were starting to appear in her husband's eyes.

“What's wrong?”she asked.

“Nothing，”the husband replied.“Keep reading your list.”

The wife continued to read until she had read all three pages to her husband. She neatly placed her list on the table and folded her hands over the top of it.

“Now,you read your list and then we'll talk about the things on both of our lists，”she said happily.

Quietly the husband stated，“I don't have anything on my list. I think that you are perfect the way that you are.I don't want you to change anything for me.You are lovely and wonderful and I wouldn't want to try and change anything about you.”

The wife,touched by his honesty and the depth of his love for her and his acceptance of her,turned her head and wept.

In life,there are enough times when we are disappointed,depressed and annoyed. We don't really have to go looking for them.We have a wonderful world that is full of beauty,light and promise.Why waste time in this world looking for the sad,disappointing or annoying when we can look around us,and see the wondrous things before us?

幸福不需要列單子

一個男人和他的女朋友喜結(jié)連理，舉行了一場盛大慶典。

所有的親朋好友都來親眼見證這場迷人的典禮，同喜同賀，大家都非常開心。

新娘一襲雪白婚紗，光彩照人；新郎一身黑色禮服，英氣逼人。大家都能看出來，他們彼此相愛是出于真心。

幾個月后，妻子向丈夫提出了一個建議：“我剛才在雜志上看到一篇文章，說的是我們?nèi)绾文莒柟涛覀兊幕橐觥Ｎ覀兏髯粤谐鍪箤Ψ接悬c(diǎn)兒生氣的事情，然后可以商量一下看如何一起解決，這會使我們的生活更加幸福。”

丈夫表示同意。于是，他們各自到自己的房間里想使對方生氣的事情。那天剩下的時間，他們都在想這個問題，并把想起來的事情寫了下來。

第二天早上吃早飯時，他們決定仔細(xì)看了一下對方寫的。

“我先來吧。”妻子主動說道。她拿出自己列的單子，上面寫了滿滿三頁。她開始念丈夫那些小毛病時，注意到丈夫的眼里涌出了淚水。

“怎么了？”她問道。

“沒什么，”丈夫答道，“繼續(xù)念你的單子吧。”

妻子接著念，直到向丈夫念完三張紙后，才把單子整齊地放在桌子上，兩手交叉放在上面。

“現(xiàn)在，你念自己的單子吧。你念完后，我們來談?wù)勲p方單子上列的那些事情，”妻子開心地說道。

丈夫平靜地說：“我在單子上什么也沒寫。我認(rèn)為你現(xiàn)在非常完美。我不想讓你為我改變什么。你可愛迷人，我不想設(shè)法改變你所有的一切。”

丈夫的誠實(shí)、深愛和容忍感動了她。她轉(zhuǎn)過頭，哭了起來。

生活中，很多時候，我們都會感到失望、沮喪和苦惱。我們不必較真去尋找它們。我們擁有一個充滿美麗、光明和希望的奇妙世界。我們環(huán)顧四周，就可以看到這些奇妙事情，為什么要把時間浪費(fèi)在尋找傷心、失望和苦惱上呢？

Happiness Lights Your Life

Ten things are necessary for happiness in this life,the first being a gooddigestion,and the other nine—money；so at least it is said by our modern philosophers. Yet the author of A Gentle Life speaks more truly in saying that the Divine Creation includes thousands of superfuous joys which are totally unnecessary to the bare support of life.

He alone is the happy man who has learned to extract happiness—not from ideal conditions,but from the actual ones about him. The man who has mastered the secret will not wait for ideal surroundings；he will not wait until next year,next decade,until he gets rich,until he can travel abroad,until he possesses everything,but he will make the most of life today.

Paradise is everywhere,but you must take your joy,or you will never fnd it.

It is after business hours,not in them,that people relax themselves. When finishing their work,people must,like Philip Amour,unlock the doors of some wholesome recreation at once.Dr.Lyman Beecher used to divert himself with a violin,relieving the great strain put upon him.

“A man，”says Dr. Johnson，“should spend part of his time laughing.”

Humor was Lincoln's life-preserver,as it has been of thousands of others.“If it were not for this，”he used to say，“I should die.”His jests and quaint stories lit the gloomy hours of the nation.

“Next to virtue，”said Agnes Strickland，“the fun in this world is what we can least spare.”

“I have fun from morning till night，”said the editor Charles A. Dana to a friend who was growing prematurely old.“Do you read novels,play billiards and walk a great deal?”

Gladstone early formed a habit of looking on the bright side of things and never lost a moment's sleep by worrying about public business.

There are many out-of-door sports,and the very presence of nature is to many a great joy. How true it is that,if we are cheerful and contented,all nature smiles with us-the air seems more balmy,the sky more clear,the earth has a brighter green,the trees have a richer foliage,the flowers are more fragrant,the birds sing more sweetly,and the sun,moon and stars all appear more beautiful.“It is a grand thing to live—to open the eyes in the morning and look out upon the world,to drink in the pure air and enjoy the sweet sunshine and to feel the pulse throb；it is a good thing to be alive simply,and it is a good world we live in in spite of the abuse we're fond of giving it.”

Each of us has joy mines that aren't prospected. And he who goes“prospecting”to see what he can daily discover is a wise man,who is training his eyes to see beauty in everything and everywhere.

“One ought,every day，”said Goethe，“at least to hear a little song,read a good poem,see a fne picture,and,if it were possible,to speak a few reasonable words.”And if this be good for one's self,why not try the song,the poem,the picture and good words on someone else?

Shall music and poetry die out of you while you are struggling for that which can never enrich the character,nor add to the soul's worth?Shall a disciplined imagination fll the mind with beautiful pictures?He who has intellectual resources to fall back upon won't lack daily recreation most wholesome……

It is a remark of Archbishop Whateley that we ought to cultivate the cornfelds of the mind,but the pleasure grounds also. A well-balanced life is a cheerful life；a happy union of fine qualities and unruffled temper,a clear judgment,and well-proportioned faculties.In a corner of his desk,Lincoln kept a copy of the latest humorous work；and it was frequently his habit,when fatigued,annoyed or depressed,to take this up and read a chapter with great relief.Honesty,sagaciousness or wit—anything to provoke mirth and make a man jollier—this,too,is a gift from heaven.

幸福點(diǎn)亮人生

這一生要幸福，必須具備十個條件，首先要有良好的消化能力，其他九個則都是金錢。至少這是我們當(dāng)代的哲學(xué)家這樣說的。不過，《溫柔生活》的作者說得更為現(xiàn)實(shí)，他說這種神圣產(chǎn)物包含成千上萬的多余快樂。這對毫無生活能力的人來說完全是多此一舉。

他自己就是一個幸福的人，他已經(jīng)學(xué)會了如何找到幸福，不是來自理想的狀態(tài)，而是來自身邊的實(shí)際生活。領(lǐng)悟了這個秘密的人，就不會等待理想的環(huán)境，不會等到下一年、下一個十年，不會等到自己成為富人，不會等到自己能去國外旅行，也不會等到自己擁有一切，而是充分利用今天。

天堂無處不在，但你必須帶著快樂，否則你將永遠(yuǎn)找不到。

人們應(yīng)在上班時間后，而不應(yīng)在上班時間內(nèi)，放松自己。人們必須像菲利普·阿穆爾那樣，在完成工作時，馬上打開有益于健康的娛樂之門。萊曼·比徹博士經(jīng)常用一把小提琴自得其樂，以此來緩解巨大的緊張感。

約翰遜博士說：“一個人應(yīng)花一部分時間歡笑。”

和成千上萬的人一樣，幽默是林肯的人生秘訣。他常常說：“要不是因?yàn)檫@樣，我就應(yīng)該死。”他的笑話和有趣故事點(diǎn)亮了處于低潮時期的國家。

“除了美德，”艾格尼絲·斯特里克蘭說，“樂趣也是世界上我們能分享的最少東西之一。”

“我一天到晚都很快樂，”編輯查爾斯·達(dá)納問一個未老先衰的朋友，“你看小說、打臺球、經(jīng)常散步嗎？”

英國首相格拉德斯通很早就養(yǎng)成了一種樂觀看待事物的習(xí)慣，從來沒有因擔(dān)心公務(wù)而失眠過。

許多戶外活動和自然景象都可以讓人獲得許多快樂。確實(shí)，如果我們愉快滿足，大自然都會同我們微笑——空氣似乎比平常更加和煦，藍(lán)天更加晴朗，大地更加翠綠，樹木更加茂盛，鮮花更加芬芳，小鳥唱得更加甜美，太陽、月亮和星星更加美觀。

“活著的感覺真棒——清晨睜開眼睛，望著窗外的世界，呼吸著純凈的空氣，享受著可愛的陽光，感受著脈跳；簡單地活著就是一件好事；盡管我們動不動就罵這個世界，但我們?nèi)匀簧钤谝粋€美好的世界里。”

我們每個人身上都有“尚未開采的快樂寶藏”。

每天都去“采礦”并能有新發(fā)現(xiàn)的人才是真正的智者，因?yàn)樗屪约旱难劬τ?xùn)練有素，從每件事和每個地方中看到美。

歌德說：“一個人應(yīng)該每天至少聽一首小曲、詠一首好詩、賞一幅美畫，而且如果可能的話，說幾句有道理的話。”

如果這對一個人有益的話，何不試著去聽歌、詠詩、賞畫，對他人說有道理的話呢？

當(dāng)你為既不能充實(shí)性格又不能增添心靈價值的東西奮斗時，音樂和詩歌會從你的心中消失嗎？循規(guī)蹈矩的想象力怎能讓你的腦海里充滿美麗的畫面？一個心智健全的人每天都不缺少有利身心健康的娛樂活動……

惠特利大主教說，我們應(yīng)該耕種心靈的麥田，也應(yīng)該培養(yǎng)精神的游樂場。意識健全的生活是一種愉快的生活；是優(yōu)秀品質(zhì)、溫和性情、清晰判斷和適當(dāng)能力的一種幸福結(jié)合。林肯總是在桌角放一冊最近的幽默作品，每當(dāng)疲乏、煩惱或沮喪時，他就常常習(xí)慣地拿起這冊書，帶著極大安慰看上一章。誠實(shí)、睿智或風(fēng)趣都能帶來歡笑，使人更加開心，這也是上天賜予的禮物。

Where Is Happiness

A bird went to look for its happiness in the distance.

It few and few when it suddenly saw a little wilting fower,whose face was full of smile. Not knowing why,the bird asked the little fower，“You're going to die.Why are you still so happy?”

“Because my dream will come true，”said the little fower.

“What kind of dream do you have?”

“To bear luscious fruit.”

Then the little bird saw it：happiness is a hope in the heart.

The little bird kept fying；it few and few when it suddenly saw a lame duck,which was singing a song. Not knowing why,it asked the duck，“The fate treats you so unfairly.Why are you still so happy with yourself?”

“Because I saw a little duck fall，”said the duck.

“So are you happy because you saw it trip over itself?”

“No,I'm happy because I help it stand up again.”

Then the little bird saw it：happiness is a love in the heart.

The bird kept fying；it few and few when it suddenly saw a spider climbing up a slippery wall. The spider fell off the wall midway,but it kept climbing again and fell off again.This didn't discourage the spider；it kept climbing over and over again.Not knowing why,the little bird asked the spider，“You failed again and again,why don't you have pain but happiness on your face?”

“As long as I keep making my efforts,there is still hope to climb up it. Because of this,I'm so delighted，”said the spider.

The little bird saw it：happiness is a faith in the heart.

So the little bird pursued happiness no longer because it had seen the truth：happiness is not in the distance but in your own heart.

幸福在哪里

一只小鳥去遠(yuǎn)方尋找幸福。

它飛啊飛，突然看到了一朵快要枯萎的小花，但小花笑容滿面。小鳥不解何故，便問小花：“你快要死了，為什么你還這樣開心呀？”

“因?yàn)槲业膲粝刖鸵獙?shí)現(xiàn)了。”小花說。

“什么夢想？”

“長出甜美的果實(shí)。”

小鳥明白了：幸福是心中的一個希望。

小鳥向前飛；它飛啊飛，突然看到了一只瘸腿鴨。鴨子正哼著歌兒。小鳥不解何故，便問鴨子：“命運(yùn)對你這樣不公，為什么你還這樣開心呀？”

“因?yàn)槲铱吹揭恢恍▲喫さ沽恕！兵喿诱f。

“你是見到小鴨摔倒而開心嗎？”

“不是。我開心，是因?yàn)槲規(guī)托▲喺玖似饋怼！?

小鳥明白了：幸福是心中的一份愛。

小鳥繼續(xù)向前飛；它飛啊飛，突然看到了一只蜘蛛正在爬一面滑溜溜的墻。蜘蛛中途摔了下來，但它又向上爬，爬到中途，又摔了下來，但蜘蛛一點(diǎn)也不泄氣，繼續(xù)向上爬。小鳥不解何故，便問蜘蛛：“你一次次失敗，為什么你的臉上沒有痛苦而是快樂呢？”

“只要我不斷努力，總有希望爬上去。正因?yàn)檫@樣，我非常開心。”蜘蛛說。

小鳥明白了：幸福心中的一種信念。

于是，小鳥不再去遠(yuǎn)方尋找幸福，因?yàn)樗呀?jīng)開始懂得，幸福不在遠(yuǎn)方，而在自己心里。

I Choose to Be Cheerful

At the beginning of my 8:00 a. m.class one Monday at college,I cheerfully asked my students how their weekend had been.One young man said that this weekend had not been very good.He'd had his wisdom teeth extracted.The young man then proceeded to ask me why I always seemed to be so cheerful.

His question reminded me of something I'd read somewhere before，“Every morning when you get up,you can have a choice about how to spend that day.”I said to the young man，“I choose to be cheerful.”

“Let me give you an example，”I continued. The other students in the class ceased their chatter and began to listen to our conversation.“In addition to teaching here at college,I teach at the community college,about seventeen miles down the freeway from where I live.One day,a few weeks ago,I drove those seventeen miles to that college.I exited the freeway and turned onto College Drive.I only had to drive another quarter-mile down the road to the college.But just then my car died.I tried to start it again,but the engine wouldn't turn over.So I put my fashers on,grabbed my books and marched down the road to the college.

“As soon as I got there I called AAA and asked them to send a tow truck. The secretary in the Provost's office asked me what had happened.‘This is my lucky day，'I replied,smiling.

“‘Your car breaks down and today is your lucky day?'She was puzzled.‘What do you mean?'

“‘I live seventeen miles from here，'I replied.‘My car could have broken down anywhere along the freeway. It didn't.Instead,it broke down in the perfect place：off the freeway,within walking distance of here.I'm still able to teach my class,and I've been able to arrange for the tow truck to meet me after class.If my car was meant to break down today,it couldn't have been arranged in a more convenient fashion.’

“The secretary's eyes opened wide,and then she smiled. I smiled back and headed for class.”

After ending my story to the students,I scanned the sixty faces in the lecture hall with a smile. Obviously,my story had touched them.

我選擇快樂

星期一早上8點(diǎn)，我在大學(xué)授課時，興高采烈地問學(xué)生們周末過得怎么樣。一位年輕人說這個周末過得不很好，因?yàn)樗蔚袅酥驱X。年輕人隨后問我為什么總是看起來這樣快樂。

他的問題使我想起了以前在什么地方看過的一句話：“每天早上起床時，你可以選擇如何度過這一天。”我對年輕人說：“我選擇了快樂。”

“我給你舉個例子，”我接著說。班上其他同學(xué)也不再嘰嘰喳喳說話，開始聽我們談話。“除了在這里授課，我還在社區(qū)學(xué)院授課。順著高速公路，距離我住的地方有17英里車程。幾周前的一天，我開車去那個學(xué)院授課。我下了高速公路，拐到學(xué)院快車道上。我再開四分之一英里就到那個學(xué)院了。但就在這時，我的車熄火了。我試著重新發(fā)動車子，但發(fā)動機(jī)沒有起動。于是，我打開閃光燈，一把抓起書，大步流星朝學(xué)校走去。

“我一到那里，就給美國汽車協(xié)會打電話，讓他們派一輛拖車來。教務(wù)處的秘書問我發(fā)生了什么事兒。我面帶微笑地回答說：‘今天是我的幸運(yùn)日。’

“‘你的車壞了，今天是你的幸運(yùn)日？’她迷惑不解，‘你是什么意思？’“我回答說：‘我住的地方離這里有17英里。我的車子本可能壞在高速公路上的任何地方，但它并沒有，而是壞在了一個非常理想的地方：下了高速公路，剛好可以步行到這里。我仍能授課，而且我已經(jīng)安排好拖車下課后來接我。如果我的車子今天想壞，它安排的方式是再方便不過了。’

“秘書睜大了眼睛，然后露出了微笑。我也對她微笑了一下，就上課去了。”

講完故事后，我面帶微笑掃視著報(bào)告廳里的60張面孔。顯然，我的故事已經(jīng)打動了他們。

The Mystery of Happiness

In Jerusalem,I met such a young man,who was extraordinarily optimistic,soI asked him what the secret of his happiness was. He said to me，“At the age of 11，I accidentally received a thing.

“That day I rode a bicycle in the street when a gust of wind blew me to the center of the street. An approaching truck from the opposite direction knocked me down and rolled my leg.

“When the blood kept oozing,I realized I would live for the rest of my lifetime with only one leg. I was extremely frustrated,but I quickly realized my sadness and frustration couldn't exchange my lost leg,so I decided that I could never waste my time in sorrow and grief in the future.

“When my parents rushed to the hospital,they were both shocked and saddened.

“I told them，‘I have adapted to all this. It's time for you to adapt to the situation that I spare one leg.'

“From then on,seeing my friends feel sad and dismayed at some trifes,I will tell them to smile on life and enjoy life.”

At the age of 11，this young man has understood that it is a waste to put time and energy on things that have lost,whereas the secret of happiness is to enjoy and cherish what we have now owned.

幸福的奧秘

我曾在耶路撒冷遇到這樣一個年輕人，他有著非同尋常的快樂性格，因此我問他快樂的秘密是什么，他對我說：“11歲時，我意外地收到了一樣?xùn)|西。

“那天，我在街上騎著自行車，一陣大風(fēng)把我吹到街中央。這時，迎面駛來一輛大貨車，把我撞倒在地，軋傷了我的一條腿。

“血不斷地流，那時我意識到，我的下半生將會在只有一條腿的情況下度過。當(dāng)時，我沮喪萬分，但我很快意識到，悲傷與沮喪都無法換回失去的那條腿。因此，我決定，以后絕不能把時間浪費(fèi)在悲傷、難過中。

“我父母趕到醫(yī)院時，他們既驚愕又難過。我對他們說：‘我已經(jīng)適應(yīng)了這一切，這次輪到你們來適應(yīng)我只剩下一條腿的境況。’

“從此以后，看到我的朋友們因一些小事而難過、沮喪時，我都會告訴他們要笑對人生、享受生活。”

這個年輕人11歲時就已經(jīng)明白把時間和精力用在已經(jīng)失去的事物上是一種浪費(fèi)，而快樂、幸福的秘密就是享受并珍惜現(xiàn)在擁有的。

The Power of a Smile

I placed the items on the moving belt. Slowly,my packages moved towards the cash register.

The cashier was tired. I could see it on her face.It was towards the end of her shift.She had no doubt been standing and ringing the cash register all day.I know the cash registers don't ring anymore,for they are computerized,but when I worked as a cashier,they rang.

My two-year-old son,Josees,was with me.

She performed her job with all her weary spirit she could summon.

Josees stood in front of her across the belt. His tiny frame was inches below the top of the moving belt.I don't know what made him move away from me and stand there.Children can at times move more on instinct than logic.

He stood there looking up.

Sensing something,she looked down.“Oh thank God,look at that smile！”she exclaimed.

She changed. The tiredness left.The dreariness left.She appeared as fresh as if she had just walked through the door.

Josees continued standing and smiling. She continued to revive.

I saw not the power of a child,but the power of a pure smile.

Remember,you have the same power.

Each day you will meet someone who is tired,weary and dreary. For many,the tired,weary,dreary person you meet will be in the mirror.

Even in the mirror,the power of a smile still works.

When you smile,the muscles of your face contract on a special gland in the brain which release a hormone in the brain that eases stress and causes a slight euphoric high.

Smile right now and see if that gland is in your brain,too. She was still bubbling as we walked out of the store.

Josees never said a word. He only smiled.

Remember Josees when you meet your weary person each day. Remember someone needs smile.

微笑的力量

我把要買的商品放在傳送帶上。慢慢地，我那些東西移向收銀員。

收銀員一臉倦容，我從她的臉上看得出來，她輪班的時間要到了。她肯定一直在那里站著按了一天的收銀機(jī)。我知道收銀機(jī)不再響鈴了，因?yàn)樗鼈兌茧娔X化了，但我做出納時，收銀機(jī)都響鈴。

兩歲的兒子喬西斯和我在一起。

收銀員強(qiáng)打精神工作著。

喬西斯隨著傳送帶站在她面前，他矮小的身材離傳送帶頂還有幾英寸（1英寸=2.54厘米）。我不知道是什么讓他離開我站在了那里。孩子們有時更多的是依靠本能，而不是邏輯，進(jìn)行活動。

他站在那里，仰起頭。

收銀員感覺到了什么，低下頭。“噢，天哪，看那微笑！”她驚叫道。

她像變了個人，疲倦和低落一掃而光，看上去就像剛開始工作似的神采奕奕。

喬西斯繼續(xù)站在那里微笑著。她繼續(xù)精神抖擻。

我明白那不是一個孩子的力量，而是一個純真微笑的力量。

記住，你也擁有這樣的力量。

每天你都會遇到某個疲憊、厭煩和低落的人。對許多人來說，鏡子里的那個疲憊、厭倦、低落的人正是自己。

即便是在鏡子里，微笑的力量仍會發(fā)生作用。

你微笑時，面部肌肉會因大腦里的某個特定的腺體而收縮，分泌荷爾蒙來減輕壓力，產(chǎn)生一種輕微的快感。

馬上微笑吧，看你的大腦里是否也有這樣的腺體。

我們走出商店時，收銀員還是喜氣洋洋。

喬西斯一句話沒說，只是微笑。

每天當(dāng)你遇到疲憊的人時，記住喬西斯。記住有人需要微笑。
