LIFE IS A DO-IT-YOURSELF PROJECT 生活是一个自己动手的项目
An elderly carpenter was ready to retire.he told his employer contractor of his plans to leave the house building busine and live a more leisurely life with his wife enjoying his extended family.He would mi the paycheck,but he needed to retire.They could get by.The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor.The carpenter said yes,but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work.He resorted to shooddy workmanship and used inferior materials.It was an unfortunate way to end his career.When the carpenter finished his work and the builder came to inspect the house,the contractor handed the front door key to the carpenter.“This is your house,”he said,“my gift to you.”
What a shock!
What a shame!
If he had only known he was building his own house,he would have done it all so differently.Now he had to live in the home he had built none too well.So it is with us.We build our lives in a distracted way,reacting rather than acting,willing to put up le than the best.At important points we do not give the job our best effort.Then with a shock we look at the situation we have created and find that we are now living in the house we have built.If we had realized that we would have done it differently.Think of yourself as the carpenter.Think about your house.Each day you hammer a nail,place a board or erect a wall.Build wisely.It is the only life you will ever build.Even if you live it for day more that day deserves to be lived graciously and with dignity.The plaque on the wall says,“Life is a do-it-yourself project.”
Who could say it more clearly?Your life today is the result of your attitudes and choices in the past.Your life tommorrow will be the result of your attitudes and choices you make today.Parenthood 为人父母
If it was going to be easy, it never would have started with something called labor!
Shouting to make your children obey is like using the horn to steer your car, and you get about the same results.To be in your children’s memories tomorrow, you have to be in their lives today.The smartest advice on raising children is to enjoy them while they are still on your side.The best way to keep kids at home is to give it a loving atmospherehandy to have around and easily wrapped around the fingers of grandchildren.A child outgrows your lap, but never outgrows your heart.God gave you two ears and one mouth....so you should listen twice as much as you talk.There are three ways to get something done: Do it yourself, hire someone to do it, or forbid your children to do it.Adolescence is the age when children try to bring up their parents.Cleaning your house while your kids are at home is like trying to shovel the driveway during a snowstorm.Oh, to be only half as wonderful as my child thought I was when he was small, and half as stupid as my teenager now thinks I am.There are only two things a child will share willingly: communicable diseases and his mother’s age.Money isn’t everything, but it sure keeps the kids in touch.Adolescence is the age at which children stop asking questions because they know all the answers.A alarm clock is a device for awakening people who don’t have small children.No wonder kids are confused today.Half the adults tell them to find themselves;the other half tell them to get lost.People hardest to convince that it’s time for retirement are children at bedtime.Kids really brighten a household;they never turn off any lights.A Smile is A Gift That Anyone Can Give
It costs noting, but saves much.微笑不需要花费你一分钱,但却能带来很多.It enriches those who receive,without impovershing those who give.它使那些得到它的人富有,却不会使付出它的人贫穷.It happens in a flash , and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever.它发生在一瞬间,但它的记忆有时却是永恒的.None is so rich that he can get along without it;none so poor that he is not enriched by it.如果人们可以没有微笑,那么,无论拥有什么都会觉得贫穷.如果人们无法因此而丰富,那么就没有什么比这更贫穷了.It creates happine in the home, fosters goodwill in busine,and is the countersign of friends.微笑为家庭到来欢笑,为工作增添善意,是友谊的象征.It is rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the sick, and Nature's best antidote for trouble.它是缓解疲劳的良药,是征服气馁的日光,是治疗疾病的阳光,是自然界中战胜困难的灵丹妙药.It cannot be bought, borrowed, or stolen, for it is no earthly good to anyone until it is given away.它不能买,不能借,也不能偷,因为在它被给予他人之前是毫无用处的.If you meet someone too burdened with grief or worry to smile, just give him one of yours.如果你遇见某人被悲伤和焦虑压得喘不过气来,只要给他一个微笑就行.For nobody needs a smile so much as he who has none left to give.因为当一个人无法再给予微笑的时候,他也就不那么需要微笑了!
Wealth,Succe&Love财富,成功和爱
A woman came out of her house and saw three old men
with long white beards sitting in her front yard.She did not recognize them.一个妇人出门看到3位白须飘然的老者坐在她家前院。妇人与他们素不相识。
She said “I don't think I know you, but you must be hungry.Please come in and have something to eat.”
她上前同他们打招呼:“你们一定饿了,进屋吃点东西吧?”
“Is the man of the house home?”, they asked.“No”, she replied.“He's out.”
“Then we cannot come in”, they replied.“你们家男主人在吗?”老人们问。
妇人回答: “他出去了。”
“他不在,我们就不进去。”老人们回答。
In the evening when her husband came home,she told him what had happened.“Go tell them I am home and invite them in!”
晚上,丈夫回家了,妇人将遇到的事告诉了他。
“快去告诉他们我回来了,请他们进来!”
The woman went out and invited the men in.“We do not go into a house together,” they replied.“Why is that?” she asked.于是妇人出去邀老人们进屋。
“我们不能一同进屋。”老人们说。
“那是为什么?”妇人感到疑惑。
One of the old men explained: “His name is Wealth,”
he said pointing to one of his friends,and said pointing to another one, “He is Succe, and I am Love.”
一个老人指着一个同伴说:“他名叫财富。”
指向另一个同伴说:“他叫成功,我是爱。”
Then he added, “Now go in and discu with your husband
which one of us you want in your home.”
他接着说:“你现在进去和丈夫商量,看你们家需要我们中哪一个。”
The woman went in and told her husband what was said.Her husband was overjoyed.“How nice!”, he said.“Since that is the case, let us invite Wealth.Let him come and fill our home with wealth!”
His wife disagreed.“My dear, why don't we invite Succe?”
妇人把老人的话告诉丈夫。丈夫十分惊喜,说:“既然如此,我们就邀请财富老人吧,让他进来,把我们的房子装满财富!”
妻子不同意,说:“亲爱的,为什么不邀请成功呢?”
Their daughter-in-law was listening from the other corner of the house.She jumped in with her own suggestion: “Would it not be better to invite Love?
Our home will then be filled with love!”
他们的儿媳妇在屋子的另一头听到这些话,建议道:“邀请爱进来不是更好吗?我们家将会充满爱。”
“Let us heed our daughter-in-law's advice,” said the husband to his wife.“Go out and invite Love to be our guest.”
The woman went out and asked the three old men,“Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our guest.”
“我们接受儿媳的建议吧,” 丈夫对妻子说,“去吧爱请进来坐我们的客人吧。”
这位妇人走出门问3个老人:“你们之中哪位是爱?请进来做客。”
Love got up and started walking toward the house.The other two also got up and followed him.Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Succe:
“I only invited Love, Why are you coming in?”
爱老人起身朝房子走去,另外两位也起身跟着走了进去。
这位妇人吃惊地问道:“我邀请的是爱,你们两位怎么也跟进来?”
The old men replied together: “If you had invited Wealth or Succe,the other two of us would've stayed out,but you invited Love, and wherever he goes, we go also.Wherever there is Love, there is also Wealth and Succe!”
Yesterday...Today...AND Tomorrow 昨天,今天,还有明天
There are two days in every week that we should not worry about,two days that should be kept free from fear and apprehension.One is Yesterday, with its mistakes and cares, its faults and
blunders, its aches and pains.Yesterday has paed, forever beyond our control.All the money in the world cannot bring back Yesterday.We cannot undo a single act we performed.Nor can we erase a single word we saidbut it will rise.Until it does, we have no stake in Tomorrow, for it is yet unborn.This leaves only one day
It is remorse or bitterne for something which happened Yesterday, and the dread of what Tomorrow may bring.Let us, therefore, live One Day at a Time!
SAND OR STONE 写在沙子或者石头上的话
A story tells that two friends were walking through the desert.In a specific point of the journey they had an argument, and one friend slapped the other one in the face.The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand: TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE.They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they
decided to take a bath.The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him.After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone:
TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SAVED MY LIFE.The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him,“After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now, you write on a stone, why?”
The other friend replied “When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds of forgivene can erase it away.But, when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it.”
LEARN TO WRITE YOUR HURTS IN THE SAND
AND TO CARVE YOUR BENEFITS IN STONE.Advice from Mother Teresa 特蕾纱修女的忠告
People are often unreasonable,illogical,and self-centered;
Forgive then anyway.If you are kind,people may accuse you of selfish,ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.If you are succeful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.What you spend years building,someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.If you find serenity and happine,they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.The good you do today,people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.Give the world the best you have,and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.You see, in the final analysis,it is between you and God:
It was never between you and them anyway.A Spiritual Meage to America

Confidence
Every day is a new day in our life.There is much to do today.The early morning sun inspires us to start things freshly and put back our past.Only a handful of us make use of this fresh bunch of energy.In various walis of life this affects the way we behave and our confidence level.Confidence is a key to survive in this world.It is the only key tool to win the rat race in every walk of life.Confidence in ones owns capabilities combined with sincere efforts help one to achieve unthinkable heights.But many times we see that this basic element of confidence is miing in us.As a result of lack of confidence we perform well below our caliber.Be it in a public speech, proposing your beloved, visas for your college or in an interview or say even on the eve before your exams.This can be due to fear of being rejected or any other reason.If we look into our hearts and think, we will come to know that fear inside us I going to get us nowhere.The confidence inside us is going to take us places.This is because with confidence we can put our thoughts into words in a better and pleasing way.So we have to get out of that shell where we think whether people will accept us as we are?
Instead of living in these unending moments of fear and thoughtle analysis, it is better if we project ourselves with the skills we have with the glo of confidence.With confidence we can portray the finer points of our personality in such a way that the places where we do lack are never highlighted.Confidence should glow in us only till the point where our personality is boosted.Above this it leads to over-confidence that is harmful.Over-confidence results in unsatisfied performance levels as the seed of ego grows into a plant into our mind.We then imagine and make big talks just to maintain our ego.So guys don’t let the seed of ego to germinate in your mind, as this seed should be used only for you to live up to your expectations.Confidence is all about being cool, calm and composed.So guys do you have it in you?
If you think you don't,boost up yourselves as your mind is your greatest mentor.You are your greatest helper.
