有一天,老師上國語課時,出了一篇家庭作業, 要班上每位小朋友練習當小記者,回家訪問自己的爸爸, 寫下他們的三個願望。小明回到家,盼呀盼,終於等到爸爸下班回來。 吃過晚飯就向爸爸說明這項作業,然後就開始訪問起爸爸了。 小明充滿期待,興奮的問:「爸爸,請問您的第一個願望是什麼?」 問完後就專注地看著他的爸爸,希望能聽到一個了不起的答案。 爸爸思考了一下,說:「希望能吃得下。」 小明以為自己聽錯了,再次詢問確定後大叫一聲: 「爸!這算什麼答案呀!這個願望太平凡了,能不能換一個啊?」 爸爸說:「小明,你現在是記者,你不能對被訪問人的答案有意見, 被訪問的人說什麼,你都要清清楚楚真實地記下來,才是一個好記者呀!」 小明只好心不甘情不願的寫下:爸爸的第一個願望是「吃得下」。 小明再次提起精神問:「爸爸,那您的第二個願望是什麼呢?」 「睡得著」,爸爸說。 小明急了:「爸!同學的爸爸一定會幫他們拿好成績,你這樣的答案一定會害我挨老師罵啦!」 爸爸只是重覆說:「孩子,你不能夠左右被訪問者, 被訪問的人說什麼,你就記什麼,才是一個好記者。」 小明覺得很無奈,寫下:爸爸的第二個願望是「睡得著」。 小明很灰心,只好期待爸爸第三個願望能讓人滿意, 結果爸爸回答他:「希望笑得開。」 小明非常不高興,說:「爸,你這種答案會讓我變成全班同學的笑柄啦!」 小明快哭了,爸爸只好叫他去問媽媽,看他媽媽怎麼說。 只見小明乘興而去,敗興而歸,在作業單上自動的寫下爸爸的第三個願望: 希望「笑得開」。」因為媽媽的回答竟然跟爸爸是一樣的。 爸爸看小明不高興,就跟他說:「要不然你可以在作業單寫下自己的看法呀!」 小明最後寫著:「我的爸爸回家就是吃飯,睡覺時打呼聲音很大, 他不是很有錢,但是我們家常充滿笑聲。爸爸很愛我,我也愛他。」 第二天,爸爸一回家就問小明,昨天的小記者作業得到幾分。 小明回答:「98分,全班最高分,老師還說,師丈最近工作不順利,所以睡不著、吃不下、也笑不開。」 人因夢想而偉大而有進取,但是好高騖遠、不切實際的夢想是不可取的。 如果能隨遇而安、放下爭鬥的心,才能吃好、睡得安穩、笑得開心,這才是平凡中的真正幸福。 {只要食得落 睡得好 天天裡笑得開口 便已足夠}

Day-tight compartment
How to Reduce the Stress in Your Life
Stress is something that we all have to deal with each and every day. There’s work related stress, relationship stress and financial stress just to name a few. If we don’t develop effective strategies for dealing with stress, it can lead to many problems including physical illness.
One of the most effective strategies for reducing your stress levels is to learn to live your life in day-tight compartments.
Let me explain…
When ship builders design passenger ships, they divide the ship into sections and between each
Stress is something that we all have to deal with each and every day. There’s work related stress, relationship stress and financial stress just to name a few. If we don’t develop effective strategies for dealing with stress, it can lead to many problems including physical illness.
One of the most effective strategies for reducing your stress levels is to learn to live your life in day-tight compartments.
Let me explain…
When ship builders design passenger ships, they divide the ship into sections and between each
If one of the compartments is flooded, the ship’s captain can close the water-tight doors and the ship will continue to stay afloat.
Imagine for a moment that your life is a series of compartments each made up of a single day. On either side of each day is a day-tight door.
Just as the water-tight doors in a ship block out water and prevent the boat from sinking, your day-tight doors block out the past and future and prevent your outlook on life from sinking.
In your day-tight compartment, you do not have to analyze the past or worry about the future.
All you have to deal with is today.
Imagine for a moment that your life is a series of compartments each made up of a single day. On either side of each day is a day-tight door.
Just as the water-tight doors in a ship block out water and prevent the boat from sinking, your day-tight doors block out the past and future and prevent your outlook on life from sinking.
In your day-tight compartment, you do not have to analyze the past or worry about the future.
All you have to deal with is today.

When I was working 70+ hour weeks in the corporate world, I found this day-tight compartment strategy to be a useful form of stress management.
Each morning I would imagine that I was closing my day-tight doors. This helped me to stop analyzing the past and prevented me from worrying about the future. I could then simply focus on what I had to do in the next 24 hours.
Often when I talk to people about living their life in day-tight compartments someone will ask “Don’t you need to visualize your future everyday in order to make it a reality? How can I do that if I’m living in a day-tight compartment?”
This is a very good question. The answer is that you first visualize your future goal in its entirety and then determine what small step you can achieve today. Next, you bring this single step inside your day-tight compartment and shut your day-tight doors.
In this way you are not intimidated by the size of your overall goal and can just focus on what you need to do today while still moving steadily towards your achieving your long term goals.
So the next time you are under stress, try taking a deep breath and make the decision to live your life in day-tight compartments. Each morning, imagine closing your day-tight doors on the past and the future.
During the day, if you catch yourself analyzing the past or worrying about the future, remember that these thoughts do not belong in your day-tight compartment and try and let them go.
By learning to live your life in day-tight compartments, you can greatly reduce your stress levels and lead a happier and healthier life.

聽歌看人生(1) ~花灑
花灑
(學習放下)
主唱: 古巨基
作曲:王菀之
填詞:林夕
編曲,監製:雷頌德
為了要博世界讚美便苦惱 害怕永遠也做不到
忘掉了偶爾懶理 世界或會更好
(人,不論您們或我們,是喜歡被讚美的,不過如果只為討好別人,可能會迷失自己,
因為人在團體社會生活,會害怕做不到人地(所有人)的要求而變得緊張,下沉.
有時偶爾忘掉,不去理會,放下.....可能會舒服些)
期望有這個與那個像匹布 被踐碎飛舞
盲目了兩眼 也但求要拾到
(每個人有自己的價值觀,自己的看法,我們會對其他人如親人,愛人,朋友有所期望, 有期望是好的,但如果像父母強加於仔女的命令式"期望",愛人,朋友之間要求"期望", 這些"期望"是盲目了兩眼,也但求要拾到,變質了,他們可能會不服氣,不開心的去做,或是反倒過來不做...有時,簡單一點,放鬆一點,人與人之間或會更好)
*何必要做奴隸 無須要為失去了的執迷
輪流涼或暖像四季 做人做過世 漫長年月有路軌
人總想擁有東西 要是代價高 愈令心中牽繫
擔憂要是無謂 拿花灑洗禮
lalalalala...
(我們在心靈上不用做奴隸般去為"失去了的任何事,物,金錢"而執迷,如果繼續下去可能付出高代價,墮入擔憂"繼續失去很多",在自己的死胡同裡轉,人生停在那迴轉處轉圈....其實人生流流長,有四季變化,春暖夏熱秋涼冬冷,忘記過去的"失"向前走下去...所以擔憂要是無謂,拿花灑洗禮,學習放下過去的"失",lalalala哼著~靜化心靈)
為了要與某某愛上便希冀 為了挫折過便緊記
全為貢獻過要有報答 便有對比
全為看中過發覺看錯便生氣 甚麼叫天理
忘掉奮鬥過 要隨緣 信命理
(我們要從每次小挫折中學習,不要與人對比,最重要的"忘掉奮鬥過 要隨緣 信命理 ",做事隨緣,漫步人生路,積極面對人生)
REPAET*
lalalalala...
梳化自在自載齊齊坐 拿去他都總可去站去跑 無謂靠甚麼
何不將一切拋低 志願大過天 亦像世上螻蟻
星星永未流逝 如只可感歎它美麗
得到也是無謂 負擔高過 天際
(我們學會放下,向前方的路去走,"志願大過天,亦像世上螻蟻" 去慢慢追求夢想,像螻蟻般不屈不撓堅強活下去,有時其實天上的星星天天仍在閃爍,未不流逝,即日子仍很長,慢慢努力慢慢向上就可以了~)
註:
『螻蟻尚且偷生』(諺語)連螻蟻都愛惜生命,何況是萬物之靈的人。比喻一個人要能愛惜生命,不可輕生。
