【二】黃昏之美
Looking into the sunset I can't help but notice
that despite her beauty,
a sense of struggle and hopeless surround the sky .
Deep inside you realize that this day is gone,
and everything that It had brought is lost forever.
Every thought,every action,every dream,every hope,
every sight,every sound is gone.
There is no chance of every being returned the same,
exactly the same.
For every moment has a limit to what it can capture,
Every memory has a limit to what it had retrieve.
凝望夕陽，我無法抑止地看到，
無論她是如何的美麗動(dòng)人，
掙扎和絕望依然縈繞天幕，
內(nèi)心深處，你明白今日已逝，
它所帶來的一切也永遠(yuǎn)消失了，
每一脈思想，每一次行動(dòng)，每一個(gè)夢(mèng)想，每一線希望，
每一幅景象，每一縷聲音，都消逝而去，
一切都不可能還復(fù)如初，
和原來一模一樣，
只因每一個(gè)時(shí)刻所能捕捉的東西是有限的，
甚至每一段記憶所能緬懷的一切也是有限的。
And the colours in the sky try to entertain us.
one last act with painted smiles,
for they too know that nothing can be done to save the day.
So futile their attempt to comfort our fear of the night.
our horror as we try to find our way,
like children who wanderinto a forest and never return.
I am ingratiatedby the sunset because of
her sensitivity as she tries to push the darkness
back for just a moment more.
But like so many times before....to no avail!
而天空中的綺麗色彩努力讓我們快樂起來，
最后上演的是五彩繽紛的微笑，
因?yàn)樗鼈円仓獣裕鍪裁炊紵o法留住時(shí)日，
它們想安慰我們對(duì)夜的恐懼，而又如此徒勞無益，
雖然恐懼，我們依然尋找出路，
宛若在林中的孩心，彷徨不知?dú)w路，
我滿心歡喜，只因夕陽的敏感，
她竭力將黑暗推回，僅僅為了再多駐留一刻，
可卻猶如以往，一切都無濟(jì)于事....
【三】A Box Full Of Kisses
The story goes that some time ago, a man punished his 3-year-old daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he became infuriated when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree. Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said, "This is for you, Daddy.”
有這樣一個(gè)故事，爸爸因?yàn)槿龤q的女兒浪費(fèi)了一卷金色的包裝紙而懲罰了她。家里很缺錢，當(dāng)孩子想要用包裝紙裝飾一個(gè)掛在圣誕樹上的盒子時(shí)，爸爸生氣了。然而，第二天早上小女孩把盒子作為禮物送給了爸爸，“這是給你的，爸爸。”
The man was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found out the box was empty. He yelled at her, stating, "Don't you know, when you give someone a present, there is supposed to be something inside? The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and cried, "Oh, Daddy, it's not empty at all. I blew kisses into the box. They're all for you, Daddy."
女兒的這個(gè)行為讓爸爸感到尷尬。但是當(dāng)他發(fā)現(xiàn)盒子是空的時(shí)候，他的怒火再一次燃燒了。他對(duì)女兒喊道，“難道你不知道給別人禮物的時(shí)候，里面應(yīng)該放有東西嗎?”多女孩抬頭看著父親，眼里含著淚水，“爸爸，盒子不是空的。我把吻放在了盒子里，都是給你的，爸爸。”
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little girl, and he begged for her forgiveness. Only a short time later, an accident took the life of the child. It is also told that her father kept that gold box by his bed for many years and, whenever he was discouraged, he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.
爸爸感動(dòng)極了，他摟住女兒，懇請(qǐng)她的原諒。之后不久，一場事故奪走了小女孩的生命。據(jù)說，父親便將那個(gè)小金盒子放在床頭，一直陪伴著他的余生。無論何時(shí)他感到氣餒或者遇到難辦的事情，他就會(huì)打開禮盒，取出一個(gè)假想的吻，記起漂亮女兒給予了自己特殊的愛。
In a very real sense, each one of us, as humans beings, have been given a gold container filled with unconditional love and kisses... from our children, family members, friends, and God. There is simply no other possession, anyone could hold, more precious than this.
從一個(gè)非常真實(shí)的意義上說，我們每個(gè)人都被贈(zèng)與過一個(gè)無形的金色禮盒，那里面裝滿了來自子女，家人，朋友及上帝無條件的愛與吻。人們所能擁有的最珍貴的禮物莫過于此了。
【四】Youth
Youth is not a time of life; itis a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and suppleknees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of theemotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
Youth means a temperamentalpredominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over thelove of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobodygrows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Yearsmay wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear,self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
Whether 60 or 16, there is inevery human being’s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing appetite for what’snext and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and myheart, there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty,hope, courage and power from man and from the infinite, so long as you areyoung.
When your aerials are down, andyour spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, thenyou’ve grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catchwaves of optimism, there’s hope you may die young at 80.
青春不是年華，而是心境；青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志，恢宏的想象，炙熱的戀情；青春是生命的深泉在涌流。
青春氣貫長虹，勇銳蓋過怯弱，進(jìn)取壓倒茍安。如此銳氣，二十后生而有之，六旬男子則更多見。年歲有加，并非垂老，理想丟棄，方墮暮年。
歲月悠悠，衰微只及肌膚；熱忱拋卻，頹廢必致靈魂。憂煩，惶恐，喪失自信，定使心靈扭曲，意氣如灰。
無論年屆花甲，擬或二八芳齡，心中皆有生命之歡樂，奇跡之誘惑，孩童般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一臺(tái)天線，只要你從天上人間接受美好、希望、歡樂、勇氣和力量的信號(hào)，你就青春永駐，風(fēng)華常存。
一旦天線下降，銳氣便被冰雪覆蓋，玩世不恭、自暴自棄油然而生，即使年方二十，實(shí)已垂垂老矣；然則只要樹起天線，捕捉樂觀信號(hào)，你就有望在八十高齡告別塵寰時(shí)仍覺年輕。
