Many people believe that they will be happy once they arrive at some specific goal they set for themselves. However, more often than not, once you arrive " there" you will still feel dissatisfied, and move your " there" vision to yet another point in the future. By always chasing after another "there," you are never really appreciating what you already have right "here." It is important for human beings to keep soberminded about the age-old drive to look beyond the place where you now stand. On one hand, your life is enhanced by your dreams and aspirations. On the other hand, these drives can pull you farther and farther from your enjoyment of your life right now. By learning the lessons of gratitude and abundance, you can bring yourself closer to fulfilling the challenge of living in the present.
許多人都相信，一旦他們達到了自己所設定的某個特定目標，他們就會開心、快樂。然而事實往往是，當你到達彼岸時，你還是不知足、不滿意，而且又有了新的彼岸--新的幻想和憧憬。由于你總是疲于追逐一個又一個的彼岸，你從未真正欣賞、珍惜你已經擁有的一切。不安于現狀的欲望人皆有之，由來已久，但重要的是要對它保持清醒的頭腦。一方面，你的生活因為夢想和渴望而更加精彩。另一方面，這些欲望又使你越來越不懂得珍惜和享受現在擁有的生活。假如你能懂得感恩，學會知足，你就接近實現生活在現實中提出的要求。
Gratitude To be grateful means you are thankful for and appreciative of what you have and where you are on your path right now. Gratitude fills your heart with the joyful feeling and allows you to fully appreciate everything that arises on your path. As you strive to keep your focus on the present moment, you can experience the full wonder of "here."
感恩之心感恩是指你感激、珍惜自己當前所擁有的一切以及所處的人生境遇。心存感恩，你的心靈就充滿愉悅，你就能真正領會人生路上的種種體驗。如果你努力把眼光鎖定在此時此刻，你就能感受它的美妙之處。
There are many ways to cultivate gratitude. Here are just a few suggestions you may wish to try:
感恩之心需要經常加強。許多方法可以培育感恩之心，你不妨試試以下幾種：
1. Imagine what your life would be like if you lost all that you had. This will most surely remind you of how much you do appreciate it.
1．設想如果你失去了你現在所擁有的一切，你的生活將會怎么樣。它肯定會使你回想起原來你是多么喜歡和珍視這一切。
2. Make a list each day of all that you are grateful for, so that you can stay conscious daily of your blessings. Do this especially when you are feeling as though you have nothing to feel grateful for. Or spend a few minutes before you go to sleep giving thanks for all that you have.
2．每天都列出那些值得你感激的事物，那樣你就能時時刻刻意識到自己的幸運。每天都要這么做，尤其是當你覺得好像沒有什么可感激的時候。另外你也可以每天臨睡前花幾分鐘感恩自己所擁有的一切。
