十四、談做人

每天都是生命中的一張白紙，每一個人、每一件事都是一篇生動的文章。
Every single day is like a blank page of our life. Every person we meet, every event we participate in is a lively essay.

人一生的行為，不管是善是惡，皆有時間所累積。

難行能行，難捨能捨，難為能為，才能昇華自我的人格。
Continue even when it is hard to go on, release even when it is hard to let go, endure even when it is hard to bear, this is how we build our character.

口說好話，心想好意，身行好事，腳走好路。
Speak kind words, think good thoughts, do good deeds, and walk the right path.

轉一個角度來看世界，世界無限寬大；換一種立場待人處事，人事無不輕安。
When you view the world from a different perspective, the world becomes vast and wide. Try shifting your perspective in everything you do, and all will be light and easy.

做事， 一定要秉持【誠】與【正】的原則；而待人，則要用【寬】與【柔】的態度。
Be honest and truthful in everything you do. Be gentle and forgiving in your relationships with others.
