cupboard and get some beer. Here is the money, and don't lose it as

【每日背诵】
Acceptance
Acceptance——of others and ourselves.
If we cannot be happy with whom we are,
we cannot be happy in our dealings with others.
Friends, let's try to spread them a little further.
接纳
接纳——接纳别人, 也接纳我们自己。
如果我们在自己的身上都得不到满意,
我们同样无法在与别人的交往中感到满意。
朋友们,让我们一起来将它们传递得更远。
