这是充满挑战的时刻——当我们对世界甚至自己失去信心。我们中的大多数人认为自己能够掌握自己的生活或命运,然而事实却并非总是如此。这时我们应审视内心,并寻找自身的内在潜能。

我们的确已经拥有生活中那些能够令我们感到幸福的事,只是还未意识到。幸福并非来自物质享受、金钱或仰慕者的喜爱。是的,物质享受能够令我们感到开心;拥有金钱是件美事;来自仰慕者的喜爱给我们带来愉悦,但真正的幸福来自我们内心——"做自己"的艺术。

你无法拥有自己想要的一切,但接受生活中所有的美好仍可令你感到幸福。英语短文生命有限,因此请珍惜时间。享受一个热水澡、玫瑰的芬芳、孩子的笑声和夏日阳光洒在皮肤上的温暖感觉,并对这些心存感激。

"做自己"的艺术在于感受活着的平和并对其心存感激。找一个安静的时刻感激所有令你能够活在世上并发现幸福的事物。一旦做过,你便会知道"做自己"的价值所在。人生如此,夫复何求?

“我惧怕临近岁末年尾”，一位朋友最近对我说：“它使我意识到我正在变老。”
伟大的心理学家威廉?詹姆斯就曾说过，大多数人“25岁时就成了守旧落伍者”。他的话是对的。大多数人25岁时就满足于他们的工作。他们已经积累了一些他们称之为“原则”的偏见，对所有新的思想关闭心灵之门;他们已经停止成长。
一个人一旦停止成长--不管他年龄多大--他就开始衰老。反之，真正的伟人从来不会衰老。
歌德享年83岁，逝世前几年才完成《浮士德》;格莱斯顿70岁时又开始学习一门外国语;法国天文学家拉普拉斯78岁死时还在工作着。临死前，他大声喊道：“我们所知的太少太少，我们所不知的太多太多。”
“一个人何时变老?”，从这类事例中对这个问题你已经有了真正的答案。
拉普拉斯78岁逝世时依然年轻。他依旧不满足，依旧感到许多东西要学。
一个人，只要他能够保持这种心态，只要他在回首过去的一年时能够说“我在成长”，他就依然年轻。
他一旦停止成长，他一旦对自己说“我该懂的都懂了”，这个时候他的青春也就完了。他可能在25岁时死去，也可能在75岁时死去，这都没有区别。就在那一天，他开始变老。
