When A Friend Makes Some Mistake, Do Not Forget All The Good Things He Did For You.



我們都是一體的，你對周遭環境所做的，終歸會回到你自己身上。
We are all interconnected, and what you do to the environment, ultimately you do to yourself.



你相信這世界是什麼樣子，它就是什麼樣子。它的改變是為你而改變。
The world is what you believe it to be, and it changes as you change.



佛陀不是佛教徒。耶穌不是基督徒。穆罕默德不是穆斯林。他們是教〈愛〉的老師。〈愛〉是他們的教學宗旨。
Buddha was not a Buddhist. Jesus was not a Christian. Muhammad was not a Muslim. They were teachers who taught love. Love was their religion.



聰明的人，不一定有智慧，愚魯的人，不一定沒有智慧；智慧不等於知識，而是對人處事的態度。～聖嚴法師108自在語
An intelligent person is not necessarily wise; a dull-witted person not necessarily foolish. Wisdom is not the same as knowledge; the difference lies in your attitude in dealing with people.



最孤獨的人最善良；最悲傷的人笑容最燦爛。這全都因為他們不想看到別人跟他們一樣受苦。
The loneliest people are the kindest. The saddest people smile the brightest. All because they do not wish to see anyone else suffer the way they do.



不要以為你的布施微不足道。總有人會需要它。
Never think that what you have to offer is insignificant. There will always be someone out there that needs what you have to give.



有人記得你每個小細節，是很甜蜜的。不是因為你常常在提醒他們，而是因為他們關注。
It’s sweet when someone remembers every little detail about you, not because you keep reminding them… but because they pay attention.



有時候，你以為你被埋在陰暗地方了，其實你是被栽培了。
Sometimes when you are in a dark place you think you have been buried, but you have actually been planted.



當你終於明白，這輩子沒有什麼是永恆的，你就會變得更寬容、更慈悲、少論斷。When you finally realize that nothing is permanent in this life, you will become more tolerant, more forgiving and less judgmental.



眼淚是由百分之一的水和百分之九十九的感情組成的。
A tear is made of 1% water and 99% feelings.



別浪費時間解釋。人們只聽他們想聽的。
Don’t waste your time with explanations: people only hear what they want to hear.



以退為進、以默為辯、以奉獻他人為成就自己的最佳方法。【聖嚴法師 108 自在語】
Retreat to advance; be silent to debate. These are the best methods to foster self development and to help others.
