There are three reasons we aren’t as thankful as we should be: envy, pride, and covetousness. Envy, is looking more at someone else’s blessings than at our own. Pride, is looking more at ourselves than at our blessings. And covetousness, is looking more at what we wish we had than at what we actually have.
有三件事常常讓我們不能感恩: 『嫉妒』、『驕傲』、和『貪心』。 『嫉妒』是看別人的祝福、多於自己的祝福。 『驕傲』是看自己、多於自己的祝福。 『貪心』是看自己想要有的、多於自己已經有的祝福。
