热情带你前进(下)
Enthusiastic people also love what they do, regardless of money or title or power. If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career, we can as a part-time avocation, like the head of state who paints, the nun who runs marathons, the executive who handcrafts furniture.
热心的人同样热爱他们所做的，而不管金钱、头衔或者权威。 如果我们不能全职全心地去做我们所热爱的事情的话， 我们可以把自己的喜好像那些刷油漆的国家首脑、跑马拉松的那些修女、用手工造家俱的那些公司经历们一样，作为我们的业余爱好!
Elizabeth Layton of Wellsville, Kan, was 68 before she began to draw. This activity ended bouts of depression that had plagued her for at least 30 years, and the quality of her work led one critic to say, "I am tempted to call Layton a genius." Elizabeth has rediscovered her enthusiasm.
在Wellsville Kan的Elizabeth Layton已经68岁了，她开始决定学画画了，这个决定终于结束了如瘟疫般地困扰了至少30年的画画的这份爱好，而且她的绘画作品让一个评论家都忍不住叹道：“我只想说的是，Elizabeth Layton是一个天才啊!” Elizabeth终于重新找到了她的激情!
We can't afford to waste tears on "might-have-beens." We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after "what-can-be."
我们负担不起在那些“本来应该发生的事”上去流泪!我们没有时间再去后悔了，我们需要做的就是把眼泪转化成汗水，去追求我们能够成为什么!
We need to live each moment wholeheartedly, with all our senses -- finding pleasure in the fragrance of a back-yard garden, the crayoned picture of a six-year-old, the enchanting beauty of a rainbow. It is such enthusiastic love of life that puts a sparkle in our eyes, a lilt in our steps and smoothes the wrinkles from our souls.
我们需要全心全意活在此时此刻，带着我们全部的感觉……在一个后院花园里的芳香里、一个6 岁孩子的腊笔画里、一道彩虹那迷人的美丽中去发现快乐。 正是这种生活中充满激情的爱，才会使我们的双眼闪烁着光芒，使我们脚步轻松欢快!抚平我们心灵中的那些皱纹。 |
