The Power of Gratitude
感恩的力量
“Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul.”
~ Henry Ward Beecher
感恩是從靈魂深處涓流出來的最真最美的花朵。
Gratitude is more than a feeling of thankfulness in response to receiving a tangible gift or a gesture of kindness.
感恩不同於感謝。當我們收到別人送的禮物或是仁慈的行為時，我們會覺得非常的感謝。
Gratitude is a way of life.
感恩是一種生命態度。
It is a conscious choice to focus on life’s blessings rather than on its shortcomings.
感恩是一種有意識的選擇；選擇珍惜生命中的恩寵而不是抱怨生命的缺失。
Every moment is filled with opportunities to fill our consciousness with feelings of gratefulness, thankfulness and appreciation.
生活中的每一時刻都有機會讓我們感受到感恩，感謝，和感激。
When we cultivate a Grateful attitude, we learn to live in a state of Grace.
當我們練習抱持著感恩的態度，我們就學會活在【神性的恩典】裡。
Every event in life, both good and bad, becomes an opportunity to learn, to grow and to expand our capacity to love.
生命中的每一個事件，不管是好還是壞，都提供機會讓我們去學習，去成長，去擴展我們行愛的能力。
Because all that we have, all that we are, is a gift of love freely given by All That Is so that we may learn to share that love with others.
因為我們所有的，所是的，都是來自於【一切萬有】無私的愛，我們學會了這種愛，才能去跟別人分享。
“One can never pay in gratitude: one can only pay ‘in kind’ somewhere else in life.”
~ Anne Morrow Lindbergh
懂得感恩是有福的；付出感恩，也將會被回饋與感恩。
A Grateful attitude causes us to rise above the baser emotions of fear, grief, greed, envy, and depression.
一個感恩的態度可以讓我們超脫恐懼，悲傷，貪婪，忌妒，和憂鬱。
Unpleasant situations become viewed in the light of learning difficult lessons or balancing karmic debt.
不愉快的處境可以被看成是為了學習高難度的課題，或是還業債。
Harmful action is born out of the experience of being hurt. Grateful action is born out of the experience of Healing.
傷人的行為是出於被傷害的經驗。感恩的行為是出自於療癒。
“No one is as capable of gratitude as one who has emerged from the kingdom of night.”
~ Elie Wiesel
經歷過最深沉痛苦的人才是最懂得感恩的人。
（筆者註：Elie Wiesel 是希特勒集中營的倖存者之一）
Gratitude and Selfless Service go hand in hand. When we live in Gratitude, our giving becomes receiving. Compassion for others becomes our foremost emotion when dealing with others.
感恩與無私的服務是一體的兩面。當我們活在感恩的世界裡，我們所付出的也會回到自身。同體大悲心變成了我們對待他人的首要情懷。
The ascension of humanity to a higher level starts in the hearts of each of us. When we raise another, we raise ourselves.
人類的昇華始自於我們每一個人的心。在我們提昇他人的同時，我們也提昇了自己。
A sense of Gratitude is not the same as a feeling of indebtedness. Indebtedness causes a feeling that onemu st repay a benefactor. Gratitude causes one to reach out to their benefactor to improve their relationship with them.
感恩的感覺跟欠債的感覺是不同的。欠債讓人只想到要還債。感恩讓債務人想要跟債權人改善彼此之間的關係。
“As we express our gratitude, wemu st never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.”
~ John Fitzgerald Kennedy
當我們表達感恩時，我們必須記得最高的感激不是掛在嘴上說的，而是要以實際行動展現的。
When we look at the Universe as energy, Gratitude is a higher vibrational frequency.
在宇宙能量裡，感恩的能量振動幅度相當的高。
When we are mindful of each moment and exist in the harmonious state of Gratitude, the energy we ripple out in our thoughts and actions attracts energy back from the Universe of a similar frequency.
當我們時時專注的活在當下並且能懷感恩的心的時候，我們思想行為裡所發出的能量能從宇宙裡吸引更多的類似能量進入我們的生活。
Like attracts like. Grateful action towards others results in reactions deserving of greater Gratitude.
同質相吸。對他人感恩會讓我們收到更多讓我們想感恩的事物。
This is the true secret of the Law of Attraction.
這就是吸引力法則最真切的秘密。
“Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others.”
~ Cicero
感恩不僅僅是最好的美德，也是所有美德的源頭。
