英語是我們需要認真的去學(xué)習(xí)才可以學(xué)習(xí)的好的,所以小編今天就給大家分享一下英語散文,有時間的話就來看看吧
Rules of life生活的原則
Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling five balls in the air. You name them: work, family, health, friends, and spirit, and you're keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls--family, health, friends, and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged, or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life.
想象下,人生就好比是你在玩游戲時當(dāng)空飄起的的五個球兒.它們依次叫做:工作、家庭、健康、友誼、心靈,你把它們都放飛在空中。很快地,你就會發(fā)現(xiàn)“工作”是個彈力球兒。就算你松開手不去管它,它還會是會再次跳起來。但是其他的那四個球兒——家庭、健康、友誼、和心靈是玻璃般制成的。如果你丟下它們中的任何一個,它注定就會劃傷了、有擦痕了、被弄壞了,甚至裂成碎片了。不可能再完好如初了。因此,你必須了解這點,并為掌握它們之間的分配與平衡努力。
How?
怎樣做到這一點呢?
Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself to others.It is because we are different that each of us is special.
不要總拿自己與別人比從而貶低自身的價值。正因為我們彼此的差異不同,我們才會各有千秋。
Don't set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you.
別人認為重要,并不能作為你確定目標的根據(jù)。只有你自己知道,什么東西對你最好。
Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as you would cling to your life, for without them, life is meaningless.
與你內(nèi)心最貼近的東西,切莫等閑視之。要像堅守生命一樣堅守住它們,因為失去它們,生活就會毫無意義。
Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future. By living your life one day at a time,youlive ALL the days of your life.
不要耽于過去或未來,而讓生命從指間悄悄溜走。一次只活一天,活在今日,你就充實地活過生命中的每一天。
Don't give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
如果你還可以付出,就不要輕言放棄。在你停止努力那一刻之前,什么都沒有真正結(jié)束。
Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us each together.
別害怕承認自己不完美,正因為我們都不完美,我們才會彼此需要。.
Don't be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we all learn how to be brave.
別害怕遇到風(fēng)險,那是我們學(xué)會勇敢的機會。
Don't shut love out of your life by saying it s impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
別說真愛難求,而將愛拒之門于生活之外。獲得愛的捷徑是給予愛,失去愛的捷徑是扼住愛,而守住愛的捷徑是給愛插上翅膀。
Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going.
不要一生奔忙,匆匆而過,以至于忘了自己從何而來,往何而去。
Don't forget that a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated. Don't be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily. Don't use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved. Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.
不要忘了每個人最強的感情需求就是別人的認同和支持。莫害怕學(xué)習(xí)。知識沒有重量,它是可以隨意攜帶的珍寶。與人交談或者安排時間時要多多用心。因為“一言既出,駟馬難追”.人生不是一場競賽,而是一次旅途,好好享受你路上的每一處風(fēng)景吧.
Yesterday is a history,tomorrow is a mystery,only today is a gift,that is why we call it present.
昨天屬于歷史。明天是未知的謎。而今天是賜予我們的禮物:所以我們把“今天”稱之為present。
Live in the present moment生活在此時此刻
To a large degree,the measure of our peace of mind is determined by how much we are able to live in the present moment.Irrespective of what happened yesterday or last year,and what may or may not happen tomorrow,the present moment is where you are --always it is.
我們內(nèi)心是否平和在很大程度上是由我們是否能生活在現(xiàn)實之中所決定的。不管昨天或去年發(fā)生了什么,不管明天可能發(fā)生或不發(fā)生什么,現(xiàn)實才是你時時刻刻所在之處。
Without question,many of us have mastered the neurotic art of spending much of our lives worrying about a variety of things --all at once.We allow past problems and future concerns to dominate our present moments,so much so that we end up anxious,frustrated,depressed,and hopeless.
毫無疑問,我們很多人掌握了一種神經(jīng)兮兮的藝術(shù),即把生活中的大部分時間花在為種種事情擔(dān)心憂慮上---而且常常是同時憂慮許多事情。我們聽?wèi){過去的麻煩和未來的擔(dān)心控制我們此時此刻的生活,以致我們整日焦慮不安,萎靡不振,甚至沮喪絕望。
On the flip side,we also postpone our gratification,our stated priorities,and our happiness,often convincing ourselves that ‘someday’ will be better than today.Unfortunately,the same mental dynamics that tell us to look toward the future will only repeat themselves so that "someday " never actually arrives.
而另一方面我們又推遲我們的滿足感,推遲我們應(yīng)優(yōu)先考慮的事情,推遲我們的幸福感,常常說服自己“有朝一日”會比今天更好。不幸的是,如此告誡我們朝前看的大腦動力只能重復(fù)來重復(fù)去,以致“有朝一日”永遠不會真正來臨。
John Lennon once said,‘Life is what’s happening while we’re busy making other plans.’When we’re busy making ‘other plans’,our children are busy growing up,the people we love are moving away and dying,our bodies are getting out of shape,and our dreams are slipping away.In short,we miss out on life.
約翰·列農(nóng)曾經(jīng)說過:“生活就是當(dāng)我們忙于制定別的計劃時發(fā)生的事。”當(dāng)我們忙于制定種種“別的計劃”時,我們的孩子在忙于長大,我們摯愛的人離去了甚至快去世了,我們的體型變樣了,而我們的夢想也在悄然溜走了。一句話,我們錯過了生活。
Many people live as if life were a dress rehearsal5 for some later date.It isn’t.In fact,no one has a guarantee that he or she will be here tomorrow.Now is the only time we have,and the only time that we have any control over.When our attention is in the present moment,we push fear from our minds.Fear is the concern over events that might happen in the future--we won’ t have enough money,our children will get into trouble,we will get old and die,whatever.
許多人的生活好像是某個未來日子的彩排。并非如此。事實上,沒人能保證他或她明天肯定還活著?,F(xiàn)在是我們所擁有的惟一時間,現(xiàn)在也是我們能控制的惟一時間。當(dāng)我們將注意力放在此時此刻時,我們就將恐懼置于腦后。恐懼就是我們擔(dān)憂某些事情會在未來發(fā)生---我們不會有足夠的錢,我們的孩子會惹上麻煩,我們會變老,會死去,諸如此類。
To combat fear,the best strategy) is to learn to bring your attention back to the present.Mark Twain said,‘I have been through some terrible things in my life,some of which actually happened.I don’t think I can say it any better.Keeping your attention on the here and now.Your efforts will pay great dividends7).
若要克服恐懼心理,最佳策略便是學(xué)會將你的注意力拉回此時此刻。馬克·吐溫說過:“我經(jīng)歷過生活中一些可怕的事情,有些的確發(fā)生過。”我想我說不出比這更具內(nèi)涵的話。經(jīng)常將注意力集中于此情此景、此時此刻,你的努力終會有豐厚的報償。
People in your life你生活中的人們
People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. When you figure out which one it is, you will know what to do for each person.
人們走進你的生活,或者是為了一個原因,或者他們只停留一段時期,或者他們永遠與你相隨。一旦明曉其中究竟,你就知道該如何面對他們了。
When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually.
有的人出現(xiàn)在你的生活中是有原因的,通常他們填補了你流露出來的需要:幫你渡過難關(guān),指點和支持你,切實地在情感上、精神上幫助你。
They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part, or at an inconvenient time, this person will do or say something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. Sometimes they die.
他們出現(xiàn)是因為你需要他們。然后在一個你無可引咎而又不便的時候,這人說了什么或者做了什么令你們終止了這段關(guān)系。有時候他們離你而去,有時候他們冒出歪理而逼得你要奮起反抗,有時候是因為他們逝世。
What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. Your need has been answered, and now it is time to move on.
我們必需認識到,自己的需要已經(jīng)滿足了,愿望已經(jīng)實現(xiàn)了,他們的工作也就完成了。你的需要得到了回應(yīng),接著的是要繼續(xù)前行。
When people come into your life for a SEASON, it is because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They bring you an experience of peace, or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season.
有的人在你的生活中只會停留一段時期,那是因為你到了這樣的一個時候:成長、學(xué)習(xí),并和別人一起分享你的世界。他們讓你體會平和,也讓你歡笑。他們可能也教會你做一些從沒做過的事情。他們常能給你帶來無數(shù)歡樂。相信這一點!這是真的!可這,只能維持一段時間。
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons; things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person, and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.
持續(xù)一生的情誼將令你終生受益;一點一滴地努力吧,建造一個堅不可摧的感情基礎(chǔ)。你要做的只是去接受經(jīng)驗,對一生相隨的人付出關(guān)愛,并將你所學(xué)到應(yīng)用到生命中的其他關(guān)系和方方面面中。愛情令人盲目,而友誼能醍醐灌頂,據(jù)說如此。
