　　篇一

　　真愛，零期待

　　I once had a friend who grew to be very close to me. Once when we were sitting at the edge of a swimming pool, she filled the palm of her hand with a little water and held it before me, and said this:

　　我曾有個朋友，我們的關係很親密。有一次我們坐在游泳池邊上，她在手掌裡盛了點兒水，捧在我面前，說:

　　You see this water carefully contained on my hand? It symbolizes Love. As long as you keep your hand curly open and allow it to remain there, it will always be there. However, if you attempt to close your fingers around it and try to possess it, it will spill through the first cracks it finds. This is the greatest mistake that people do when they meet love. They try to posses it, they demand, they expect and just like the water spilling out of your hand, love will retrieve from you.

　　你仔細看我手上這水了嗎?那代表愛。只要你彎曲著你的手指，並允許它保持在那兒，它會永遠在那兒。但是，如果你試圖把你的手指在它周圍合起並試圖佔有它，它會通過它找到的縫溢位去。這是人們遇到愛時犯的最大錯誤。他們試圖佔有它，他們有所求有所期待，那樣就像溢位你的手掌的水一樣，愛會從你身邊流走。

　　For love is meant to be free, you cannot change its nature.

　　因為愛意味著自由隨意,你不能改變它的本性。

　　If you have people you love, allow them to be free beings. Give and don't expect. Advise, but don't order. Ask, but never demand. It might sound simple, but it is a lesson that may take a lifetime to truly practice. It is the secret to true Love. To truly practice it, you must sincerely feel no expectations from those who you love, and yet an unconditional caring.

　　如果你有愛的人，讓他們做一個自由隨意的人。給予而不指望，建議而不命令，請求而不要求。這可能聽起來簡單，但卻需要一輩子去實踐。這就是真愛的祕訣。真正去實踐時，你必須對那些你愛的人沒有期望，並給予無條件的關愛。

　　篇二

　　沙子和石頭 Sand and Stone

　　The story goes that two friends were walking through the desert. During some point of the journey they had an argument, and one friend slapped the other one in the face.The one who got slapped felt hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand: "Today my best friend slapped me in the face."

　　They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him.After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone: "Today my best friend saved my life."

　　The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now you write on a stone. Why?"

　　The other friend replied: "When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. But when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it."

　　兩個朋友結伴穿越沙漠，旅途中二人突然吵了起來，其中一個摑了對方一記耳光。被打的人感到自己受了傷害，但什麼也沒有說，只是在沙地上寫下了這樣一句話：“今天我最好的朋友摑了我耳光。他們繼續前行，看見到處綠洲，他們正打算在那裡洗澡時，剛才被打的人不小心陷入了泥潭，開始深陷，他的朋友救了他。等他從幾近淹死的邊緣甦醒過來後，他在石頭上刻下：“今天我最好的朋友救了我的命。”他的朋友問：“為什麼我傷你之後，你在沙子上寫字，現在卻把字刻在石頭上?”他回答道：“當有人傷害了我們，我們應該把它寫進沙裡，寬恕的風會把仇恨抹去。而當有人為我們做了好事，我們應當把它刻在石頭上，沒有風可以將它抹去。”

　　篇三

　　做你想做的夢 Dream What You Dream of

　　There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real!

　　在一生有多少這樣的時刻：我們對一個人朝思暮想，只想一把把他們從夢中拉出來，真切的擁抱一回!

　　When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.

　　一扇通往幸福的門關閉了，另一扇幸福之門打開了，可有多少次啊，我們徘徊在那扇關閉的門前，卻忽略了那扇早已為我們開啟的新的幸福之門。

　　Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.

　　不要以貌取人，外貌可能會欺騙你;不要追逐財富，財富會消失的。去尋找那個讓你笑口常開的人吧，一個微笑就可以使暗淡的日子豁然開朗。去追尋那個令你心靈愉悅的人吧!

　　Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.

　　做你想做的夢，去你想去的地方，成為你想成為的人，因為你只有一次生命和一次機會去做你想做的事情。

　　May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy.

　　願幸福與你永伴，使你親切可愛;願你歷經磨難，使你堅韌不拔;願你痛徹心肺，使你通情達理，願你充滿希望，使你幸福快樂。

　　The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

　　世界上最幸福的人並不一定擁有最好的東西，他們只是最充分利用、珍惜了他們生命中的一切。

　　Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends with a tear.

　　愛始於微笑，育於親吻，終於流淚。

　　The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you can't go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

　　五彩繽紛的明天常常建立在對過去的遺忘之上。只有對過去的失敗和傷痛不再耿耿於懷，生活才會變得更加美好。

　　When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.

　　當你呱呱落地、啼哭不已時，周圍的人卻笑逐顏開;要認真的生活，只有這樣，當你走到生命的盡頭時，你才會含笑而眠，而周圍的人卻痛哭不已。
