英文短篇美文赏析-寻找内心那一泓清泉

2018-07-13经典美文

  你无法改变那些必然发生的事情,它们终会发生。你要做的就是期望它们发生,甚至在发生前就把它们看作已经发生的事实,那么你就不会那么恼怒了。

  你不会表现过分。你会很合适的做出回应。你可以和当事人谈谈他们的行为,平心静气的请求他们考虑一下你的感受…你不会过于情绪化以至于把事情搞得更加复杂。

  你会微笑,思考,“这是我所期望发生的。杯子早就摔碎了。我可以接受。”

  你的内心会很安静。我的朋友们,这是一个多么受欢迎的小惊喜啊。

  How many times have you gotten upset because someone wasn’t doing their job, because your child isn’t behaving, because your partner or friend isn’t living up to his or her end of the bargain?

  How many times have you been irritated when someone doesn’t do things the way you’re used to? Or when you’ve planned something carefully and things didn’t go as you’d hoped?

  This kind of anger and irritation happens to all of us — it’s part of the human experience.

  One thing that irritates me is when people talk during a movie. Or cut me off in traffic. Or don’t wash their dishes after eating. Actually, I have a lot of these little annoyances — don’t we all?

  And it isn’t always easy to find peace when you’ve become upset or irritated.

  Let me let you in on a little secret to finding peace of mind: see the glass as already broken.

  See, the cause of our stress, anger and irritation is that things don’t go the way we like, the way we expect them to. Think of how many times this has been true for you.

  And so the solution is simple: expect things to go wrong, expect things to be different than we hoped or planned, expect the unexpected to happen. And accept it.

  One quick example: on our recent trip to Japan, I told my kids to expect things to go wrong — they always do on a trip. I told them, “See it as part of the adventure.”
