my dear friends and family,
tonight at my son, kevin's chanting meeting, we talked about the importance of appreciation.
later i drove a member back home. on the way, she said she has to appreciate more instead of just asking for benefits. so i said: yes, the more you appreciate, the more you get.
$10
afterwards, this same member and i went to a supermarket together. as we were walking out of the supermarket, suddenly a lady came after me and gave me back $10 which dropped out of my pocket.
Actually this kind of incident happened to me twice when i was travelling alone in South America (a notoriously dangerous place for travellers) a few years ago:
1. As i was getting out of a taxi in a bus station in Argentina, I droped a roll of money from my pocket without realizing it, and got on a coach ready to head for chile. a guy suddently rushed up onto the coach and gave me back the roll of money which fell out from my pocket!!!
2. when i was in a park in Chile, i dropped some money on the floor after paying for a gift, a guy next to me was quick to tell me about it and gave me back my money.
having been told about my story is one thing, and to have seen it with your own eyes is another. tonight this member witnessed the actual incident when the $10 was handed back to me. she is very encouraged and will appreciate more in life.
glad to share.

今晚在我兒子的座談會上,我們談到了感恩。
後來我開車送一位會友回家。在路上,她說她以後要多感恩,而不是僅僅祈求福運。我說:是的,你感恩越多,你會得到越多。
$ 10
後來,我和她一同去了一家超市買東西。當我們走出超市時,突然一個女仕從後走來我身旁,給回我$ 10,說是從我的口袋跌出來的。
其實同樣的事件,在我幾年前在南美旅遊時發生過兩次:
第一次是我在阿根庭車站下的士時, 一卷錢從我的口袋裡跌出來。當時我沒發覺, 然後上了一架旅遊車準備去智利, 突然一位男仕追上旅遊車,給回我從我的口袋裡掉出來的一卷錢!
第二次是當我在智利的一個公園裏買禮物,付錢時丟了一些錢在身後地上, 旁邊一個男仕很快就告訴我,並拾起並把錢給回我。
聽我談我的故事是一回事,但用自己的眼睛親眼看到又是另一回事。今晚這位會員目睹了實証: 真有人拾起$ 10还給我。這對她是非常大的鼓勵和會令她更加識感恩
