A
Page: Embracing Life’s Canvas
How
long have you had a genuine smile on your face?
In
ancient days, I found myself navigating life with a shadow of negativity
trailing behind me. When life's currents didn't flow in my favor, my response
often gravitated towards murmurs of discontent. However, during my internship,
the tides shifted last summer with warm-hearted souls' gentle arrival.
I
used to perceive the Tzu Chi foundation from an outsider's perspective, but
last summer, I had the privilege of becoming part of Tzu Chi as an intern. I
joined the news department of Da Ai Television. Amidst the bustling news office,
they always greeted others with childlike smiles, approached events with
endless curiosity from various angles, and enthusiastically tackled daily news
content. To me, every Tzu Chi staff is as actual as the colors of life. They
serve others wholeheartedly, embodying the essence of compassion and kindness.
Every interaction is filled with sincerity and warmth, from their gentle smiles
to meticulous guidance. Their sincere commitment to making a positive
difference in the world and spreading truth, goodness, and beauty through the
news has profoundly impacted me, reminding me of how beautiful selfless acts of
service can be. Because of them, I have learned the importance of living with
compassion and integrity, and I am forever grateful for the invaluable lessons
they have taught me.
"Every
single day is like a blank page of our life; every person we meet and every
event we encounter is a vivid essay," one of the Jing Si Aphorisms from
Master Cheng Yen. It is a reminder that even during our busyness, we need to
remember to keep a child's heart and experience the colorfulness and beauty of
life. No matter the trials we face, an opportunity resides within every
challenge. The world presents an expansive canvas of experiences, waiting to be
intricately woven into the fabric of our existence. Each day unfolds as a blank
canvas, brimming with the promise of new adventures and discoveries.
Looking
back on that summer internship, I am grateful for the lessons I learned and the
person I have become. I no longer allow negativity to dictate my outlook on
life. Instead, I see each day as a blank page waiting to be filled with the
vibrant colors of my experiences. With every stroke of love and creativity, I
am excited to continue writing my story, inspired by the compassionate spirit
of Tzu Chi. The warmth and teachings of the Tzu Chi community
and Da Ai News's unique beauty have left an indelible mark on me. Their
dedication to service and commitment to spreading love and positivity have
forever changed how I view the world.
