幾萬年前就讀了這幾個讓人感觸頗深的promises,直到今天我仍認為我過去與現在都沒能做到。今天,在我的人生面遇種種難關時,把它重讀一遍,讓我知道我有一個距離,非常遙遙不可及。也許這個知道能在我目前的困惑渾濁中幫助我面對摸索與掙扎:一個沒有安全感的人如何去做呢?開心了,滿足了自然會笑。不開心,不滿足時,怎麼才能笑呢? Today and everyday of my eternal life, I promise myself To be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind. To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person I meet. To make all my friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them. To look at the sunny side of everything and make my optimism come true. To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best. To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as I am about my own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature I meet. To give so much time to improving myself that I have no time to criticize others. To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble. To think well of myself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words, but in great deeds. To live in the faith that the whole world is on my side, so long as I am true to the best that is in me.
