   我们能让这世界变得更美好么?这句话本身就是一个错误的假设,认为这世界不好。反过来,我们应该说世界就是这样的,没有什么绝对的好与不好。这是我们选择的生活方式,也是我们喜欢的生活方式。换个角度看待事物:接受并试着理解。接受这世界,你会快乐。


  “There is nothing either good or bad,but thinking makes it so.”—William Shakespeare, “Hamlet”
  One of the greatest sources of unhappiness, in my experience, is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they are.
  Without judgment 1, without wishing for otherwise.
  When we see something we don't like, we wish it could be different — we cry out for something better. That may be human nature, or perhaps it's something that's ingrained in our culture.
  The root of the unhappiness isn't necessarily that we want things to be different, however: it's that we decided 2 we didn’t like it in the first place. We've judged it as bad, rather than saying, "It's not bad or good, it just is."An example: In my recent post, A Beautiful Method to Find Peace of Mind, quite a few commenters thought my outlook was negative, pessimistic, or fatalistic … because I said you should expect people to mess up, expect things to go differently than you planned, and that you should embrace that.
  It's too negative to expect things to go wrong, they said. However: it's only negative if you see it as negative. If you judge it as bad.
  Instead, you could accept it as the way the world works — as the way things actually are. And try to understand why that is, and embrace it. As it is.
  This can be applied 3 to whatever you do: whether it be how other people act at work, how politics works and how depressing the news media can be. Accept these things as they are, and try to understand why they're that way.
  It'll save you a lot of grief, because you'll no longer say, "Oh, I wish things didn't suck!"Does it mean you can never change things? Not at all. But change things not because you can't accept things as they are, but because you enjoy the process of change, of learning and growing.
  Can we make this world a better place? Again, that's assuming that it's a bad place right now. But instead, you could say the world is just what it is — and that's neither good nor bad. You can say that you'll continue to try to do things to help others, to grow as a person, to make a difference in this world — not because you're such a bad person now, or the world sucks, but because that's the path you choose to take, because you enjoy that path.
  As you catch yourself judging, and wishing for different — and we all do it — try a different approach: accept, and understand. It might lead to some interesting.
