Paul Ferrini 著, 周玲莹 译 ,若水修订
Life is our teacher and we can learn from whatever it brings us. Of course, we don't always like what shows up. 生活是我们的导师,我们可以从发生的任何事情当中学习。当然,我们未必喜欢所遭遇的那些事情。 When life asks us to go deeper in our understanding and compassion, we don't always want to do it. We are satisfied with the level that we have. 当生活要求我们走入更深的领悟和悲悯时,我们常心有不甘,宁愿安于现状。 We can protest our marching orders when we get them, but that won't stop us from marching. We don't get to say "no" to our life. 我们听到前进的号令,当然可以抗议,但我们依旧被推着前进,无法对我们的生活说:「不」。 The healing and redemptive power of experience lies in its ability to help us access and give birth to the deepest part of ourselves. That is why spiritual challenges are a necessary part of growth. 经验里的治愈和拯救力量,在于它有能力帮我们进入并激起自己最深的那一部份。这就是为何心灵的挑战是成长必要的一部份。 转自:奇迹课程中文部 Paul Ferrini 专栏 2006/4/6
