Why not relax? Let go and let me take over, for the more stress and strain there is in your life, the less you get done. Why not let yourself flow with nature, flow with the tide and do what has to be done quite simply, naturally and joyously? Why not enjoy life, instead of going through it with grim determination, forcing yourself to do this, that and the other without any joy or love? Life is wonderful when you are in harmony with it and cease resisting anything .Why make everything complicated for yourself? Why not make today a special day, and see the very best in everything? Give thanks for everything. Enjoy everything as it should be enjoyed. I want you to enjoy life. Start off by seeing the beauty of nature all around you, and you will find that on wonderful thing will lead to the next, until your whole life is one of wonderment and joy.

　　為什麼不放鬆下來？放手，讓上天來引導。如果我生活中的壓力與緊張越多，我能做的就越少。

　　為什麼不讓我自己順其自然，順流而下，很簡單、自然、愉快地完成需要完成的事情？比起以其冷酷的決心去生活，沒有快樂也沒有愛地強迫自己做這些那些，為什麼不享受生活？生活如此美麗，當我與它和平相處，停止抵抗任何事。

　　為什麼把我的一切變得複雜？為什麼不讓今天成為特別的一天，且看到每一件事物最好的一面？為每一件事感恩。享受一切，如同它本應被享受。上天希望我享受生活。從看見我周邊的自然之美開始，然後我會發現美好的事物會接連發生，直到我的整個生命都充滿奇妙與愉悅。
