第二篇:Love Your Life
热爱生活
Henry David Thoreau/享利.大卫.梭罗
However mean your life is,meet it and live it ; do not shun it and call i
t hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are riche
st. The fault-finder will find faults in paradise. Love your life,poor as it i
s. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hourss, even in a p
oor-house. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as
brightly as from the rich man's abode; the snow melts before its door as early
in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there,an
d have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace.The town's poor seem to me often t
o live the most independent lives of any. May be they are simply great enough
to receive without misgiving. Most think that they are above being supported b
y the town; but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves
by dishonest means.which should be more disreputable.Cultivate poverty like a
garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends, Turn the old, return to them. Things do
not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
不论你的生活如何卑贱,你要面对它生活,不要躲避它,更别用恶言咒骂它。它不像你
那样坏。你最富有的时候,倒是看似最穷。爱找缺点的人就是到天堂里也能找到缺点。你
要爱你的生活,尽管它贫穷。甚至在一个济贫院里,你也还有愉快、高兴、光荣的时候。
夕阳反射在济贫院的窗上,像身在富户人家窗上一样光亮;在那门前,积雪同在早春融化
。我只看到,一个从容的人,在哪里也像在皇宫中一样,生活得心满意足而富有愉快的思
想。城镇中的穷人,我看,倒往往是过着最独立不羁的生活。也许因为他们很伟大,所以
受之无愧。大多数人以为他们是超然的,不靠城镇来支援他们;可是事实上他们是往往利
用了不正当的手段来对付生活,他们是毫不超脱的,毋宁是不体面的。视贫穷如园中之花
而像圣人一样耕植它吧!不要找新的花样,无论是新的朋友或新的衣服,来麻烦你自己。
找旧的,回到那里去。万物不变,是我们在变。你的衣服可以卖掉,但要保留你的思想。

我想轻描淡写 不能都是责备
只是我的眼泪 不听指挥
我想你说的对 你说的太绝对
谁叫我的眼泪 没有地位
我想轻描淡写 画出意冷心灰.............
