要做无底的垃圾桶，要学无尘的反射镜。

很想聊聊, 要做无底的垃圾桶,
不是做垃圾桶,
无底的,
你就让那垃圾过吧.

允许他们过去.

要学无尘的反射镜,
当垃圾过了,才能看到真实的世界.

Re:圣严法师108自在语: 提昇人品 Uplifting Character

分享我的心得,

压力通常来自对身外事物过于在意，同时也过于在意他人的评断。
很有体会特别是"过于在意他人的评断".

只要自己的心态改变，环境也会跟着改变，世界上没有绝对的好与坏。
就是学会从不同层面和角度看问题. 不是同一个角度不同的说法.

现在拥有的，就是最好的。拥有再多也无法满足，就等于是穷人。
前两天看到一段小识频,一位父亲让小孩在享用食物前先祷告. (即使那食物是别人丢弃的.)
那种感恩心让我羞愧.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNr4tgTEOMs&feature=player_embedded

现在所得的，是过去所造的，未来所得的，是现在所做的.
把注意力放在你未来想经验的主题上.
注意力在哪里,成就就在哪里.

爱你的孩子，与其担心，不如祝福吧！

夫妻是伦理的关係，不是「论理」的关係。
