There Are No Vans 感恩是一种心态，更是一种生活态度，一种处世哲学，一种智慧品德。英国作家萨克雷斯 说：“生活就是一面镜子，你笑，他也笑；你哭，它也哭。”送人玫瑰，手留余香。无论生活还是生命都需要感恩。     To me, what Thanksgiving really means is giving good thanks, not eating turkey.By the time I was 18 I had created my Thanksgiving ritual (惯例).I would go out shopping and buy enough food for one or two families.Then I would dress like a delivery boy, go to the poorest neighborhood and just knock on a door, and would always include a note saying “All that I ask in return is that you take good enough care of yourself so that someday you can do the same thing for someone else.” I have received more from this annual ritual than I have from any amount of money I’ve ever earned, especially one such experience in New York City.   Several years ago I was in New York City with my newly married wife during Thanksgiving.She was sad because we were not with our family.
