On Nov． 18， 1995， violinist Itzhak Perlman performed a concert at Avery Fisher Hall at Lincoln Center in New York City．

Stricken with polio （小儿麻痹症） as a child，Perlman walked with the aid of two crutches（拐杖）to a chair in the middle of the stage．He carefully laid the crutches on the floor， one leg forward and the other underneath his chair， picked up his instrument and nodded to the to begin．

But something went wrong． After only seconds of playing， one of the strings on his violin ．The audience immediately knew what happened and fully expected the concert to be until another string or even another insrument could be found． But Perlman them． He quickly calmed down， closed his eyes and then the conductor to begin again．So the orchestra played from where they had and Perlman played on three strings． He played passion and power． All the time he worked out new fingering in his mind to make up for the string． A work that few people play well on four strings Perlman accomplished on three．

When he finished， a（n） silence hung in the room．And then as one， the crowd rose to their feet and wildly．Applause burst forth from every corner of the auditorium fans showed deep for his talent and his courage． Perlman smiled and wiped the sweat from his forehead．Then he raised his bow to the crowd and said， not proudly， but in a ， quiet， holy tone， “You know． sometimes it is the artist's to find out how much music you can still make with what you have left．”

Such was Itzhak Perlman． a great violinist． Playing a concert on three strings is not unlike his philosophy of life -- he what he had left and still made music．And isn't that true with us？As for me I'm that the world， more than ever， needs the music only you and I can make．

Every morning Grandpa got up early sitting at the table, reading his book. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to copy him in every way he could.

One day the grandson asked, “Grandpa, I try to read the book just like you, but I don’t understand it, and I forget what I understand as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the book do?” The grandpa quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, “Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water.”

The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandpa laughed and said, “You’ll have to move a little faster next time,” and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again.

This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned. Out of breath, he told his grandpa that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, so he went to get a bucket instead. The grandpa said, “I don’t want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water. You’re just not trying hard enough.”

The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandpa the basket was empty again. Out of breath, he said, “Grandpa, it’s useless !”“So, you think it is useless?” the grandpa said, “Look at the basket.”

The boy looked at the basket and for the first time he realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean.

“Grandson, that’s what happens when you read the book. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you’ll be changed, inside and out.”

Have you ever noticed that the more you have the more you want? Let’s face it．Thinking our life is good enough doesn’t come naturally to many people．When we have high expectations of everything in life we will run into disappointment．Only when we are aware that needs are different from desires can we live with satisfaction．Here are a few ideas to help you be happier with what you have and who you are．

Focus on what you are thankful for．Most people want things to be better than they are, or when things are going well, we forget to appreciate what we have．Learn to reflect on how much better things are than they could be．Focus on what you are thankful for．Write down 5 things you are grateful for right now．

When we hold onto regrets from decisions we have made, it can really poison our well-being．Many people regret something they can no longer change, which ends up holding them back from moving forward in a more positive manner．What happened in the past is done and gone, so work to stay present and be mindful of the current moment to find more joy and fulfillment．

When we use other people as the measuring stick for our personal success and quality of life we are likely to be less satisfied．Social comparisons can provide useful information when we try to learn from others, but they also hold our perspective in a discontented position．Compare yourself less with others so you can be satisfied more．

When you are focused on your big ambitions and future goals you might elide the daily pleasures that surround you．Learn to slow down and absorb the wonder and beauty around you．Stay present and focus on the task you’re undertaking at the moment．Don’t let the life pass you by because you’re always on the go and distracted by ambition．

Practice looking at life through the lens of contentment and it will become more natural．
