任何的旅程最困難的都是出發，而真理是，你準備好了你就會出發。這是你完全釋放你的激情激活你的生活的唯一途徑。所以當你感覺你的基礎足夠的強大，你的立足點明確時——去！不要回頭看。
——八種激發你激情的有效方法
你曾否看過孩子們騎旋轉木馬，或聽過雨水拍打地面的聲音呢？你曾否追逐過飄忽不定的蝴蝶，或看著夕陽消失於地平線呢？放慢你的舞步，不要匆匆忙忙，人生苦短，音樂不會永遠奏下去。

Once a circle missed a wedge. The circle wanted to be whole, so itwent around looking for its missing piece. But because it was incompleteand therefore could roll only very slowly, it admired the flowers along theway. It chatted with worms. It enjoyed the sunshine. It found lots of differ-ent pieces, but none of them fit. So it left them all by the side of the roadand kept on searching. Then one day the circle found a piece that fit per-fectly. It was so happy. Now it could be whole, with nothing missing. It in-corporated the missing piece into itself and began to roll. Now that it wasa perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to notice flowers or talk tothe worms. When it realized how different the world seemed when itrolled so quickly, it stopped, left its found piece by the side of the road androlled slowly away.The lesson of the story, I suggested, was that in some strange sensewe are more whole when we are missing something. The man who has ev-erything is in some ways a poor man. He will never know what it feels liketo yearn, to hope, to nourish his soul with the dream of something better.He will never know the experience of having someone who loves him givehim something he has always wanted or never had.There is a wholeness about the person who has come to terms withhis limitations, who has been brave enough to let go of his unrealisticdreams and not feel like a failure for doing so. the man or woman who has learned that he or she is strong enough t0 gothrough a tragedy and surviVe，she can lose someone and still feel like acomplete person．
從前，一隻圓圈缺了一塊楔子。它想保持完整，便四處尋找那塊丟失了的楔子。由於不完整，所以它只能慢慢地滾動。一路上，它對花兒露出羨慕之色。它與蠕蟲談天侃地。它還欣賞到了陽光之美。圓圈找到了許多不同的楔子，但沒有一塊能夠與它相配。所以，它將它們通通棄置路旁，繼續尋覓。終於有一天，它找到了一個完美的配件。圓圈是那樣地高興，現在它可以說是完美無缺了。它裝好配件，並開始滾動起來。現在它已成了一個完美的圓圈，所以滾動得非常快，以至於難以觀賞花兒，也無暇與蠕蟲互訴心聲。當圓圈意識到因快奔急馳使它失去了原有的世界時，它不禁停了下來，將找到的配件棄置路旁，又開始慢慢地滾動起來。
我覺得這個故事告訴我們，從某種奇妙的意義上講，當我們失去了一些東西時反而更加完整。一個擁有一切的人其實在某些方面是個窮人。他永遠也體會不到什麼是渴望、期待及如何用美好的夢想滋養自己的靈魂。他也永遠不會有這樣一種體驗：一個愛他的人送給他某種他夢寐以求的或者從未擁有過的東西意味著什麼。
對每一個人來說，人生的完整性在於知道如何面對缺陷，如何勇敢地摒棄不現實的幻想而又不以此為缺憾。人生的完整性還在於學會勇敢面對人生悲劇而繼續生存，能夠在失去親人後依然表現出完整的個人風範。

序言
We always seem to want those things we don' t have. Moreover, weare often convinced that if we had those things we want so badly, wewould finally be happy. The truth is that happiness is an attitude. It' s notsomething created by outside circumstances, but instead is completelywithin your control. Nothing will give you a deep sense of satisfaction andhappiness, unless you cultivate happiness consciously. Below are somesimple yet specific steps you can take to cultivate happiness.
Create a sense of gratitude for what you have, for what is working,for what is wonderful and sweet in your life. A morning or evening grati-tude list, written each day, can do wonders for helping you feel grateful.
