Imagine that inside every person there is a small, warm light （內在光明）. The Buddha taught that this light — our bright, kind nature — is always there, even when we forget it. It never goes out.
想像每一個人的心裡都有一盞小小的、溫暖的「光」（內在光明）。佛陀教導我們，這盞光──我們明亮、善良的本性──一直都在，就算我們忘記了它，它也從不熄滅。
How do we keep our light shining? One simple way is Right Speech （正語）. This means we do not say unkind things about people behind their backs. When we are respectful with our words, others feel safe with us, and trust grows. Trust is the strong root that makes a friendship — a relationship — last.
我們要怎麼讓自己的光一直亮著呢？一個簡單的方法就是「正語」（正語）。意思是我們不在別人背後說不友善的話。當我們的言語很「尊重」別人時，別人跟我們在一起會有安全感，「信任」也會慢慢長大。信任是一條強壯的根，能讓一段友誼──也就是一段 relationship（關係）──長長久久。
Being generous keeps the light bright too. Helping your grandparents, listening carefully when someone speaks, or sharing your spare coins are all small gifts of love (Dāna 布施). Love is an emotion, and kindness is what we do with it.
保持「慷慨」也能讓光持續明亮。幫助你的爺爺奶奶、別人說話時專心聆聽，或是把你多出來的零錢分享出去，這些都是愛的小禮物（Dāna 布施）。愛是一種情緒，而善良就是我們用這份情緒去「做」的事。
