S先订婚还是先求婚ome ntences that I like very much:
"Life is a ries of pulls back and forth. You want to do one thing, but you are bound to do something el. Something hurts you, yet you know it shouldn't. You take certain things for granted, even when you know you should never take anything for granted.
"I delight in being a child when it's appropriate to be a child. I delight in being a wi old man when it's appropriate to be a wi old man. Think of all I can be! I am every age, up to my own."
"If you're trying to show off for people at the top, forget it. They will look down at you anyhow. And if you're trying to show off for people at the bottom, forget it. They will only envy you. Status will get you nowhere. Only an open heart will allow you to float equally between everyone."
My gain from the book:
We are busy doing all manner of things everyday and have little time to stop to think about the meaning of life. Sometimes we even do not know what we are doing and why we are doing that. Crowded and noisy cities have despoiled us of inner peace and calm. The book gives me a baptism of brain-storming. I deeply understand how important to face the life and death with a calm heart. Becau once we 唯美的爱learn how to die, we learn how to live. Once we know what pain is, we know what love is. We should learn to face others and life with love from the bottom of our heart. Morrie家常冷面, thank you for teaching me how to live. I think once I feel lost again ,I will review the lessons you give me in the book.
