1.我很沮丧,因为我想知道为什么我们要等待那么久,直到别人去世了,才告诉他们,我们有多么爱他们?为什么我们要等到别人耳朵都听不到了才让他们知道他们对我们有多么重要?为什么我们要等到已经来不及的时候才回想起别人的优点?为什么要等别人死后才将他树为楷模?那时候再做又有什么用呢?我们分享一个又一个的记忆,我们一会儿笑一会儿哭地回忆着他一生中的重要时刻.是的,这的确帮助我们应对失去一个对我们很特殊的人的悲伤,也会让有同感的人更紧密.不幸的是,当我们生动地回忆这个人时,最需要听这话的人却听不到我们的话语了.我只想看哪怕一次生命的庆典而不是死亡的聚会.在这个庆典中,人们讲着趣事,眼光交流,笑声四起,而当演讲者讲完他或她的爱的情意时,他们尊敬的人从椅子上站起来,紧紧地与其拥抱.这不是件天大的好事吗?那些对我们有特殊意义的人应该听到那些故事,然后意识到他们在世界上制造了不同,所有这一切都应该在他们离开他们尘世的肉体,去往永恒之前做好.这样当最终的葬礼到来的时候,当我们和他们说再见之即,同时明确地知道他们了解生前人民对他们的想法.thejoyofliving生活的乐趣

1.生活的乐趣来源于良好的情绪,信赖这些情绪,并任由它们如鸟儿高飞于天空那般自由自在。生活的乐趣是无法靠姿态摆出来的,也无法用带上一张面具来伪装。拥有这种乐趣的人们无需挂在嘴上,他们自然会焕发出欢乐的气息。他们自己生活在快乐当中,这样的快乐自然而然地感染着他人,犹如是鸟儿就必将歌唱。
2.直接追求生活的乐趣却只会使乐趣远离我们,它与幸福一样青睐胸有大志的人。生活过得高雅,简单就会产生出乐趣。它是我们对生活的投入,而非所求。

1.微笑在黑暗中给我们送来光明。微笑在寒冷的冬日带给我们温暖的阳光。微笑能打破坚冰。微笑犹如彩虹。雨天结束,天空重现美丽。
2.微笑体现着爱和友谊。老师的微笑激励着我们。母亲的微笑使我们感到温暖。朋友的微笑使我们更加亲密。
3.我们欢迎别人的微笑。我们也该向别人微笑。没有谁会比一个经常向别人微笑的人更富有。如果一个人没有对你微笑,就向他微笑吧。微笑让你忘却悲伤。生活之路很漫长。我们为什么不微笑着一直走下去呢?

1.当你对别人微笑,别人也会对你报以微笑,你自然会感觉很棒。即使他没有对你报以微笑,你也会感觉很棒,因为你认识到世界上最贫穷的人就是从不微笑的人,当你对那个人微笑,你立刻变得更加富有。
2.赞美也是这个道理。当你真诚地赞扬抑或恭维一个人时,他将立刻受益,更喜欢自己。当你让别人感觉更好时,你自己也会感觉更好。

1.美国总统罗斯福的家曾经失窃,财物损失严重。朋友闻此消息,就写信来安慰他,劝他不必把这件事放在心上。罗斯福总统很快回信说:“亲爱的朋友,谢谢你来信安慰我,我一切都很好。我想我应该感谢上帝,因为:第一,我损失的只是财物,而人却毫发未损;第二,我只损失了部分财物,而非所有财产;第三,最幸运的是,做小偷的是那个人,而不是我……”对任何人来说,家中失窃绝非幸事。但是,罗斯福总统却能找到三个感恩的理由。这个故事告诉我们,生活中,我们应该学会感恩。
2.感恩是一项重要的处世哲学,是生活的大智慧。人生在世,不可能事事顺通。对于各种失败和不幸,我们要豁达大度,勇敢地面对,并想办法解决。面对困难,我们是懊恼抱怨、沮丧气馁,陷入绝望,还是对生活满怀感恩之心,跌倒后再爬起来呢?
英国著名作家威廉·萨克雷说过,“生活是一面镜子,你对它笑,它也会对你笑;你对他哭,它也会对你哭。”如果对生活感恩,你的生命将充满灿烂的阳光;如果一味怨恨,终将一无所获。我们成功时,有千万个理由感恩生活,而失败时,只要一个借口就会表现出忘恩负义。
