B: No Harm For Trying

得學習去面對這無常。

異鄉異世界,轉念是天堂
曾接受過一位教授的訪談,他問過我一個問題:在你決定到海外生活的過程中,誰曾經投下贊成票,給予支持的意見?
想了一想,熟識的親朋好友裡,反對者佔極大多數!所以,決定到異鄉生活,不就是自己的選擇嗎?選擇相信自己能有無限可能,選擇相信所愛能給予絕對的支持,這樣想想,之前那些低潮情緒,顯得自做自受。

也許有一天,我可以原諒"他們",但是,沒有那麼一天,我能真正釋懷(I can forgive, but I cant forget),因為這不是一件容易的事。
龍應台說:“有些路只能一個人走”,我絕對同意。而我更相信,有些事只能一個人承擔,有些感覺只能一個人體會

NO HARM FOR TRYING!!!!

B: TZU CHI

When the GOING GETS TOUGH, the TOUGH GETS GOING.

When we became the team leader, our challenges increased with the responsibility.

Kindly look at problems positively. When Heaven above wants to test us, it will be done based on our ability- Easier challenges for those with lower ability, and tougher challenges for those with higher ability. If one is able to cope with the challenges, we should praise and inspire him to move on faster. Remember that “We should be vigilant with all praises”.

Always strengthening self-preservation and seeking improvement amidst stability. We have to go through hardships to realize ours true personality and it is also during such trying times we see the true character which is hidden under normal circumstances. To Quote another saying: “Distance tests a Horse's strength, so time reveals a person's heart.”

If there is a problem, it means there is a lack of ability. When there is worry, it means the wrong application of methods. Difficulties, whether due to the fault of others or through our own wrongdoings, can be turned around to benefit us instead of causing us harm if we possess the right mindfulness. Worry, regardless of its origin and root cause, can actually be converted to bliss if the right solution is applied to resolve the problem. This may be easier said than done, but we could slowly start by learning from small matters.

The people who dampen our spirits are merely providing us with the nutrients for growth. The negative words and deeps of others are actually positive learning material for us. If we are not affected by hardship, pain and adversity but instead use them to our advantage, then we have indeed learned a wonderful way to achieving great success.

If we can help others, we are blessed. Raise the candle higher to bring light to others.
