這就是我的生活Threepassions,simplebutoverwhelminglystrong,havegovernedmylife:thelongingforlove,thesearchforknowledge,andunbearablepityforthesufferingofmankind.Thesepassions,likegreatwinds,haveblownmehitherandthither,inawaywardcourseoveradeepoceanofanguish,reachingtotheveryvergeofdespair.吾生三愿，純樸卻激越：一曰渴望愛(ài)情，二曰求索知識(shí)，三曰悲憫吾類之無(wú)盡苦難。此三愿，如疾風(fēng)，迫吾無(wú)助飄零于苦水深海之上，直達(dá)絕望之彼岸。Ihavesoughtlove,first,becauseitbringsecstasy-ecstasysogreatthatIwouldoftenhavesacrificedalltherestofmylifeforafewhoursforthisjoy.Ihavesoughtit,next,becauseitrelievesIoneliness-thatterribleIonelinessinwhichoneshiveringconsciousnesslooksovertherimoftheworldintothecoldunfathomablelifelessabyss.Ihavesoughtit,finally,becauseintheunionofloveIhaveseen,inamysticminiature,theprefiguringvisionoftheheaventhatsaintsandpoetshaveimagined.ThisiswhatIsought,andthoughitmightseemtoogoodforhumanlife,thisiswhat-atlast-Ihavefound.吾求愛(ài)，蓋因其賜吾狂喜一狂喜之劇足令吾舍此生而享其片刻 ；吾求愛(ài)，亦因其可驅(qū)寂寞之感，吾人每生寂寞之情輒兢兢俯視天地之緣，而見(jiàn)絕望之無(wú)底深淵；吾求愛(ài)還因若得愛(ài)，即可窺視圣哲詩(shī)人所見(jiàn)之神秘天國(guó)。此吾生之所求，雖慮其之至美而恐終不為凡人所得，亦可謂吾之所得也。WithequalpassionIhavesoughtknowledge.Ihavewishedtounderstandtheheartsofmen.Ihavewishedtoknowwhythestarsshine...Alittleofthis,butnotmuch,Ihaveachieved.吾求知亦懷斯激情。吾愿聞人之所思，亦愿知星之何以閃光…吾僅得此而已，無(wú)他。Loveandknowledge,sofarastheywerepossible,ledupwardtowardtheheavens.Butalwayspitybroughtmebacktoearth.Echoesofcriesofpainreverberateinmyheart.Childreninfamine,victimstorturedbyoppressors,helplessoldpeopleahatedburdentotheirsons,andthewholeworldofIoneliness,poverty,andpainmakeamockeryofwhathumanlifeshouldbe.Ilongtoalleviatetheevil,butIcannot,andItoosuffer.愛(ài)與知并力，幾攜吾入天國(guó)之門，然終為悲憫之心拖拽未果。痛苦之吟?？M繞吾心：受饑餓之嬰，遭壓迫之民，為兒女遺棄之無(wú)助老叟，加之天下之孤寂、貧窮、苦痛，具令吾類之生難以卒睹。吾愿窮畢生之力釋之，然終不能遂愿，因亦悲極。Thishasbeenmylife.Ihavefounditworthliving,andwouldgladlyliveitagainifthechaneewereofferedme.吾生若此而已，然吾頗感未枉此生；若得天允，當(dāng)樂(lè)而重為之。02、LoveIsasStrongasDeath愛(ài)即生死相許AnancientHebrewtextsays,"Loveisasstrongasdeath."Itseemsthatnoteveryoneexperiencesthiskindofstronglove.Theincreaseinpoverty,crimeandwartellsusthattheworldisindesperateneedoftruelove.butwhatistruelove?一篇古希伯來(lái)文這樣寫道：“愛(ài)即生死相許?！庇纱丝磥?lái)，并非每個(gè)人都體驗(yàn)過(guò)如此深沉的愛(ài)。貧窮不斷擴(kuò)散，罪惡繼續(xù)蔓延和戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)頻繁發(fā)生，這一切都表明，世界急需真愛(ài)。但是，何謂真愛(ài)?Loveissomethingweallneedbuthowdoweknowwe'veexperieneedit?Trueloveisbestasdevotionandaction,notanemotion.Liveisnotexclusivelybasedonhowwefeel.CertainlyouremotionsareinvoIved,buttheycannotbeouronlycriteriaforlove.Trueloveiswhenyoucareenoughaboutanotherpersonthatyouwouldlaydownyourlifeforthem.Whenthishappens,thenlovetrueis"asstrongasdeath".人人都需要愛(ài)。但是，當(dāng)我們身處愛(ài)中，如何才能意識(shí)到它的存在呢？真愛(ài)應(yīng)當(dāng)是一種奉獻(xiàn)，一種實(shí)際行動(dòng)，而不是一種感覺(jué)上的激情。愛(ài)并不只建立在感知上，它也囊括了情感因素，但這些絕非是衡量愛(ài)的唯一標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。真愛(ài)來(lái)臨時(shí)，你可以為心愛(ài)的人舍棄生命，愛(ài)到如此深重，才稱得上是“生死相許”啊。Howmanyofyouhaveamotherorfather,husbandorwife,sonordaughterorfriendwhowouldsacrificehisorherownlifeforyours?Thoseofyouwhotrueloveyourspouseandchildrenwouldunselfishlylayyourlifeonthelinetosavethemfromdeath.Manypeople,inemergencyroomswiththeirlovedoneshaveprayed,"god,takemeinsteadofthem."有多少人的父母、愛(ài)人、兒女或朋友愿意為心愛(ài)的人舍棄生命 ？只有那些真正深切關(guān)愛(ài)自己家人和孩子的人， 才會(huì)甘愿牲牲自己。我們當(dāng)中又有多少人在愛(ài)人垂死的病榻前虔誠(chéng)祈禱 ：“上帝啊，用我的生命把他們的生命換回來(lái)吧！”Findtruelove,andbeatrueloveraswell.Mayyoufindthelovewhichisnotonlystrongerthandeathbutwhichleadstoatrulyfulfillinglife.尋找真愛(ài)，做個(gè)真心愛(ài)人吧！愿你的愛(ài)不僅如死般強(qiáng)烈，也能引領(lǐng)你走上充滿真愛(ài)的人生！Ihopeso我希望!03、ChoiceofCompanions擇友Agoodcompanionisbetterthanafortune,forafortunecannotpurchasethoseelementsofcharacterwhichmakecompanionshipablessing.Thebestcompanionisonewhoiswiserandbetterthanourselves,forweareinspiredbyhiswisdomandvirtuetonoblerdeeds.Greaterwisdomandgoodnessthanwepossessliftsushighermentallyandmorally.一位好友勝于一筆財(cái)富，因?yàn)樨?cái)富買不來(lái)朋友身上的珍貴品德，而正是這些品德使人們之間的交往成為一件幸事。最好的朋友就是比我們更睿智、更出色的人，我們可以被他 的智慧和美德所激勵(lì)，從而使我們的行為更加高尚。他們有著比我們更多的智慧和更高 尚的情操，從而促使我們不斷提高自己的精神境界和道德水平。Itistruethatwecannotalwayschooseallofourcompanions.Somearethrustuponusbybusinessandthesocialrelationsoflife.Wedonotchoosethe,wedonotenjoythem,andyetwehavetoassociatewiththemmoreorless.Theexperienceisnotaltogetherwithoutcompensation.Iftherebeprincipleenoughinustobearthestrain.Still,intheman,choiceofcompanionscanbemade,andmustbemade.Itisnotbestornecessaryforayoungpersontoassociatewith“TomeDickandHenry”withoutforethoughtorpurpose.Somefixedrulesaboutthecompanyheorshekeepsshouldbeobserved.Thesubjectshouldbeuppermostinthethoughts,andcanvassedoften.不可否認(rèn)的是，有些朋友總是我們無(wú)法選擇的。有些人是由于生意和各種社會(huì)關(guān)系的緣故被硬塞給我們的。我們沒(méi)有選擇他們，我們也不喜歡他們，但是我們必須或多或少 地跟他們交往。如果我們堅(jiān)守內(nèi)心的原則，承受一些壓力，這樣的經(jīng)歷并非完全沒(méi)有補(bǔ) 償。但總的來(lái)說(shuō)，朋友可以選擇，也必須選擇。如果沒(méi)有事先的掂量或明確的目的，一個(gè)年輕人就隨便與張三、李四或王五交往，那是不妥當(dāng)，也是不必要的。需要注意的是，結(jié)交 朋友是必須確立一些原則。這一點(diǎn)務(wù)必在思想上引起重視，并時(shí)時(shí)自查。Companionshipiseducation,goodorbad;itdevelopsmanhoodorwomanhood,highorlow,itliftsthesoulupwardordragsitdownward;itministerstovirtueorvice.Thereisnohalfwayworkaboutitsinfluenee.Ifitennobles,itdoesitgrandly.Ifitdemoralizes,itdoesitdevilishly,itsavesordestroyslustily.Nothingittheworldissurerthanthis.Sowvirtue,andtheharvestwillbevirtue.Sowvice,andtheharvestwillbevice.Goodeompanionshelpustosowvirtue;evileompanionshelpustosowvice.無(wú)論益友還是損友，都會(huì)使我們得到教育。無(wú)論對(duì)男對(duì)女，它都可以滋養(yǎng)高尚或卑微的人格，它可以使靈魂升華，也可以使之墮落。它可以滋生美德，也可以催生邪惡。它的 影響沒(méi)有折中之道。友誼，如果使人高尚，就會(huì)使人如天使般莊重。如果使人墮落，就會(huì) 使人如魔鬼般邪惡。它可以有力地括救一個(gè)人，也可以輕易地毀掉一個(gè)人。世上沒(méi)有什么事比這更確定無(wú)疑了。播種美德，收獲的就是美德，播種邪惡，收獲的就是邪惡。好的 朋友可以幫助我們播種美德，壞的朋友促使我們播種邪惡。04、WhenLoveBeckonsYou愛(ài)的召喚W(wǎng)henlovebeckonstoyou,followhim,thoughhiswaysarehardandsteep.Andwhenhiswingsenfoldyou,yieldtohim,thoughtheswordhiddenamonghispinionsmaywoundyou.Andwhenhespeakstoyou,believeinhim,thoughhisvoicemayshatteryourdreamsasthenorthwindlayswastethegarden.

當(dāng)愛(ài)召喚你時(shí)，請(qǐng)追隨她，盡管愛(ài)的道路艱難險(xiǎn)峻。當(dāng)愛(ài)的羽翼?yè)肀銜r(shí)，請(qǐng)順從她，盡管隱藏在其羽翼之下的利刃可能會(huì)傷到你。當(dāng)愛(ài)向你訴說(shuō)時(shí)，請(qǐng)相信她，盡管她的聲音可能擊碎你的夢(mèng)想，就如同北風(fēng)吹落花園里所有的花瓣。Forevenaslovecrownsyousoshallhecrucifyyou.Evenasheisforyourgrowthsoisheforyourpruning.Evenasheascendstoyourheightandcaressesyourtenderestbranchesthatquiverinthesun,soshallhedescendtoourrootsandshakethemintheirclingingtotheearth.愛(ài)雖可為你加冕，也能將你釘上十字架。愛(ài)會(huì)助你成長(zhǎng)，也會(huì)給你修剪枝杈。它會(huì)攀至高處，輕撫你在陽(yáng)光下顫動(dòng)的最柔嫩的枝條，也會(huì)下潛至根部，撼動(dòng)你緊抓泥土的根基。Butif,inyourfear,youwouldseekonlylove?iButif,inyourfear,youwouldseekonlylove?i：eaceandlovethenitisbetterforyouthatyoucoveryournakednessandpassoutoflove'sthreshiflgor,intotheseasonlessworldwhereyoushalllaugh,butnotallofyourlaughter,andweep,butnotallofyourtears.Lovegivesnaughtbutitselfandtakesnaughtbutfromitself.Lovepossessesnot,norwoulditbepossessed,forloveissufficientuntolove.但是,如果你在恐懼之中只想尋求愛(ài)的平和與快樂(lè)，那你就最好掩蓋真實(shí)的自我，避開(kāi)愛(ài)的考驗(yàn)，進(jìn)入不分季節(jié)的世界，在那里，你會(huì)開(kāi)懷，但不是盡情歡笑，你會(huì)哭泣，但不 是只有淚水。愛(ài)除
