Once President Roosevelt’s house was broken into and lots of things were stolen。Hearing this, one of Roosevelt’s friends wrote to him and advised him not to take it to his heart so much。

   President Roosevelt wrote back immediately, saying,”Dear friend, thank you for your letter to comfort me。 I’m all right now。

   I think I should thank God。 This is because of the following three reasons: firstly, the thief only stole things from me but did not hurt me at all; secondly, the thief has stolen some of my things instead of all my things; thirdly, most luckily for me, it was the man rather than me who became a thief…”

  朋友闻此消息,就写信来安慰他,劝他不必把这件事放在心上。罗斯福总统很快回信说:“亲爱的朋友,谢谢你来信安慰我,我一切都很好。我想我应该感谢上帝,因为:第一,我损失的只是财物,而人却毫发未损;第二,我只损失了部分财物,而非所有财产;第三,最幸运的是,做小偷的是那个人,而不是我……”

It was quite unlucky for anyone to be stolen from。

  。 However, President Roosevelt had such three reasons to be so grateful。 This story tells us how we can learn to be grateful in our life。

对任何人来说,家中失窃绝非幸事。但是,罗斯福总统却能找到三个感恩的理由。这个故事告诉我们,生活中,我们应该学会感恩。

Being grateful is an important philosophy of life and a GREat wisdom。

  。 It is impossible for anyone to be lucky and successful all the time so long as he lives in the world。 We should learn how to face failure or misfortune bravely and generously and to try to deal with it。

   If so, should we complain about our life and become frustrated and disappointed ever since then or should we be grateful for our life, rise again ourselves after a fall? William Thackeray, a famous British writer, said, “Life is a mirror。

   When you smile in front of it , it will also smile and so will it when you cry to it。” If you are grateful to life, it will bring you shining sunlight。

   If you always complain about everything, you may own nothing in the end。 When we are successful, we can surely have many reasons for being grateful, but we have only one excuse to show ungratefulness if we fail。

感恩是一项重要的处世哲学,是生活的大智慧。人生在世,不可能事事顺通。对于各种失败和不幸,我们要豁达大度,勇敢地面对,并想办法解决。面对困难,我们是懊恼抱怨、沮丧气馁,陷入绝望,还是对生活满怀感恩之心,跌倒后再爬起来呢?英国著名作家威廉·萨克雷说过,“生活是一面镜子,你对它笑,它也会对你笑;你对他哭,它也会对你哭。

  ”如果对生活感恩,你的生命将充满灿烂的阳光;如果一味怨恨,终将一无所获。我们成功时,有千万个理由感恩生活,而失败时,只要一个借口就会表现出忘恩负义。
