自从学佛后，我开始对自己的念头及行为愈来愈有觉性。在面对境界时，尤其是困境，我会试着停下脚步、反省检讨自己，而不是毫无正念地做出回应，并且放下狭隘的想法，从更宽广的角度看待事情。

　　面对生活中的人事物，我太习惯立刻做出回应，结果反而做错更多事。其实生命中的每一刻，不论境界是好是坏，都是让我磨炼、增长智慧的好机会。再者，遇到任何修善的因缘，都要好好珍惜及把握，因为即便是一件最微小的善行，在别人的生命中都可能产生巨大的影响。

　　每天提起正念和静坐定心，已经成为我生活中重要的修行。除了养成按时静坐，我也尽力在每一分每一秒保持正念。当妄想来时，我就练习让这念心回到当下。坚持每天静坐，不但让这念心更专注、更平静，我也因此一步一步地回复本具清净佛性。

Awakening My LIfe to Awareness

　　Ever since my journey with Buddhism began, I have started becoming more mindful of both my thoughts and my actions. When faced with situations, particularly difficult ones, I try to take a moment to pause and reflect rather than just to mindlessly react. I try looking at the bigger picture rather than just seeing the situation from a narrow-minded point of view.

　　All too often we react much too quickly to situations life throws at us, which leads to many mistakes and wrongdoings. Every moment in our life, whether good or bad, is an opportunity to practice wisdom. Every opportunity to practice good deeds must be cherished and taken advantage of, for even the slightest good deed can have the biggest impact on another individual's life.

　　Mindfulness and Meditation have become a very important part of my daily life. Aside from my daily meditation routine which I diligently follow, I try to make every moment of my life as mindful as possible. Whenever my mind wanders, I try to bring it back to the present moment. Having a consistent meditation practice not only helps me focus and calm my mind but also helps bring me closer to my inherent true nature.
