Life doesn’t always give us the joys we want.We don’t always get our hopes and dreams,and we don’t always get our own way.But don’t give up hope,because you can make a difference one situation and one person at a time.

Look for the beauty around you—in nature,in others,in yourself—and believe in the love of friends,family,and humankind.You can find love in a smile or a helping hand,in a thoughtful gesture or a kind word.It is all around,if you just look for it.

Give love,for in giving it you will find the power in life along with the joy,happiness,patience and understanding.Believe in the goodness of others and remember that anger and depression can be countered by love and hope.

Even when you feel as though there isn’t a lot you can do to change unhappiness or problems,you can always do a little—and a little at a time eventually makes a big difference.

Hope is always available to us.When we feel defeated,we need only take a deep breath and say,“Yes! ”and hope will reappear.

生活并非總是如你所愿。希望有時(shí)會(huì)落空，夢(mèng)想有時(shí)會(huì)破滅，我們不能一切隨心所愿。但別放棄希望，因?yàn)槭挛锊⒎且怀刹蛔?；不同時(shí)間，不同場合，你會(huì)呈現(xiàn)不同的面貌。

處處留心你身邊的美麗——大自然中的美，他人的美，你自己的美。請(qǐng)相信，美來自朋友、家庭乃至全人類的融融愛意。一個(gè)微笑，一雙援助之手，一個(gè)關(guān)心的舉止，一句友善的話語，無不傳達(dá)著愛。如果你有心去尋找，愛無所不在。

奉獻(xiàn)愛心吧，從中你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)生活的力量，感受生活帶來的幸?？鞓?，學(xué)會(huì)忍耐和理解。相信人性本善，并記住，愛心和希望能化解一切憤怒和沮喪。

哪怕生活中揮之不去的不快和困難將你重重包圍，讓你力不從心，但你仍可以盡力而為——累積點(diǎn)滴努力，最終你將扭轉(zhuǎn)乾坤。

希望一直就在我們身邊。當(dāng)我們遇到挫折時(shí)，請(qǐng)深吸一口氣并對(duì)自己說：我可以做到！希望就會(huì)重現(xiàn)。
