STEP 121 TODAY I AM FREE TO GIVE.

You are free to give today because your life is becoming simple and your needs are being met. This frees you to give, for once you have received, you will only want to give.

今天,你可以自由地给予,因为你的生命正变得简单,你的需求正得到满足。这让你可以自由地给予,因为一旦你收到了,你就会只想给予。

You will have a special practice two times today where you are to think of someone in need and then give them a quality that you wish to receive yourself. Send that individual that quality. Send them love or strength or faith or encouragement or determination or surrender or acceptance or self-discipline—whatever they need to bring about resolution in their lives. You are free to give this today, for your own needs are being met.

今天你将有两次特别的练习,你要想到一个需要帮助的人,然后给他一种你自己也希望得到的品质。把这种品质送给这个人。向他传递爱、力量、信念、鼓励、决心、屈服、接纳或自律——任何他需要的品质,以解决他生命中的问题。今天,你可以自由地传递这些,因为你自己的需求正在得到满足。

Therefore, in each of your two practices, with your eyes closed, bring to mind individuals and give to them what you know they need. Do not try to solve their problems for them. Do not try to strengthen a preferred outcome, for you cannot usually know the right outcome for any other person. But you can always give strength of character and strengthen their faculties of mind. This will give you your own sense of purpose and will reassert these qualities within yourself, for you must possess them to give them, and in giving them you realize that they are in your possession already.

因此,在你的两次练习中,闭上眼睛,想起一些人,并给予他们你知道他们需要的品质。不要试图替他们解决问题。不要试图强化他们所希望的结果,因为你通常无法知道其他人的正确结果。但你总能给予他们性格的力量,增强他们的心灵。这将给你自己带来目标感,并在你的内心深处重申这些品质,因为你必须拥有它们才能给予它们,而在给予它们的过程中,你会认识到它们已经在你的心中。

As you practice today, have no doubt that what you exert for others will be received by them on their own behalf.

在今天的练习中,你要坚信,你为他人付出的一切,他们也会以自己的名义接收它。
