關於感恩的金句
感恩節是西方多國重要的節日,雖然在東方很多地方彷彿就是西餐節,但其實這節日提醒人們感恩,意義重大。感恩是什麼?為何要感恩?不懂感恩的後果?不幸的人如何感恩?
感恩是什麼?
“Gratitude is the inward feeling of kindness received. Thankfulness is the natural impulse to express that feeling. Thanksgiving is the following of that impulse.” — Henry Van Dyke
謝意是受到恩惠後的內心感覺,感恩是渴望表達這感覺的自然反應,感恩節就是為這反應要生的。“Thankfulness is the beginning of gratitude. Gratitude is the completion of thankfulness. Thankfulness may consist merely of words. Gratitude is shown in acts.” — Henri Frederic Amiel
感恩始於感謝之心,謝意正好完成了感恩。感恩也許只是一堆言語文字,感謝卻要以行動去表逹。It isn’t what you have in your pocket that makes you thankful, but what you have in your heart.
令你感恩的,不是你口袋裡的,而是在你心中的。
