编者按: 欲速则不达的一种解释是，当你执着于结果，你就不能把所有的精力都放在开头上，放在过程中，而正是开头和过程中的努力才能结出最后的硕果。也许，当你不再执着于结果时，结果就来敲你的门了。 Time to Learn A young but earned Zen student approached his teacher, and asked the Zen Master: "If I work
洛杉矶以北40英里处有个叫香巴拉的野生动物保护区。露出地表的褐色巨石漫无规则地分散在保留地宽广起伏的土地上，它那粗犷的美使人想起非洲。香巴拉（梵语，意思是“所有生灵，包括人和动物，和睦相会的地方”。）是狮子和其他大型猫科动物的家园。它掩映在加利福尼亚州索尔达德峡谷令人叹为观止的壮丽景色中，令人心驰神往。 The Gift of Subira Forty miles north of Los Ang
编者按: 我们并不是因为年老就不再玩耍；我们变老是因为我们不再玩耍。只有四个秘密可以让你保持年轻，快乐，获得成功。你必须每天都开怀大笑，寻找幽默。你必须有一个梦想。失去了梦想，你就会虽生犹死。 Never Too Late to Become What You Want to Be The first day of school our professor introduced a little

让我们花一点点时间，对那个被我们叫做“妈”的人表达敬意和感激之情，虽然有些人当着面说不出口。她是不可替代的。珍惜与她在一起的每一时刻吧。虽然有时候，她可能不是我们最好的朋友，可能不同意我们的想法，但她依然是你的妈妈！ Love your mother Let us take a moment of the time just to pay tribute and show appreciation
在印第安人来到这片土地之前，这里居住着许多各式各样的神话人物，如鸟、兽、蜥蜴等等，它们的形状全都像人一样……。出于某种原因，神话人物都很坏，于是草原狼把它们全部变成了石头。你现在在那里就可以看到，它们全都成了石头，有的一排排地站着，有的坐在那里，有的互相靠着。你可以看到它们脸上还保留着变成石头以前的原有色彩…… The Bryce Canyon1) Situated in Utah State，t

【Transcript】 To sum up my credo in a sentence: The farther away I get from myself, the nearer I get to God. Most of my troubles came when I was obsessed with my own petty concerns and trivial details.
明妮.布卢姆菲尔德从未丧失对生活的热爱。她相信随年龄的增长而来的是勇气、梦想和真正懂得生活-整个生活的意义。所以, 在她86岁高龄时, 成了一群鸡惟一的看管人。在一条南加州最繁忙高速公路上, 一次家禽卡车事故后, 一群鸡被遗弃在路旁。出于只有当今官僚作风的原因, 始终没有人来救助这些鸡。它们干脆在路旁灌木丛里定居下来, 当地人称它们为好莱坞高速公路鸡。 The Woman Who Took Chi

编者按: 我们不能通过事物的外表来判断它的价值。那些貌似华丽的，往往并没什么价值。而那些看起来很平常的，却可能价值连城。判断事物如此，判断人亦是如此。伯乐选马，关注的不是马的颜色，马的性别，而是它自身的价值。 Gold and Diamond A long time ago, in Egypt lived a famous mystical person named Zun-Nun. A youn

编者按: 每个人迟早都会在一些人生重大事情上遇到挫折——无论它是工作、梦想，还是一份感情。我相信，被法学院开除使我成了一名更好的法官。它确实教我认识了人性的弱点，体会到给予人们第二次机会的必要性。 但失败也使我懂得，人生之路充满了未知的变数，要充分利用这些变数，你就不能让自己被一次挫折击垮，也不能让别人束缚你的手脚。 The Day I Flunked out of Law School The
