--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 亨利.沃兹渥斯.朗费罗

The day is cold,and dark,and dreary;
It rains,and the wind is never weary;
The vine still clings to the moldering wall,
But at every gust the dead leaves fall,
And the day is dark and dreary.
My life is cold and dark and dreary;
It rains and the wind is never weary;
My though still cling to the moldering past,
But the hopes of youth fall thick in the blast,
And the days are dark and dreary.
Be still,sad heart!And cease repining;
Behind the clouds is the sun still shining;
Thy fate is the common fate of all,
Into each life some rain must fall,
Some days must be dark and dreary.

天冷、阴暗、沉闷；
下着雨，风也刮个不停；
藤还攀附着颓垣残壁，
每来一阵狂风，枯叶附落纷纷，
天真是阴暗而沉闷。
我的生活寒冷、阴郁、沉闷；
下着雨，风也刮个不停；
我的思想还纠缠着消逝的往事，
大风里，我的青春希望相继熄灭，
天真是阴暗而沉闷。
安静吧，忧伤的心！别再悔恨；
乌云后面太阳依然辉煌灿烂；
你命运和大家的一样，
每个人一生都得逢上阴雨，
有些日子必然阴暗而沉闷。
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 it hard names.It is not so bad as you are.It looks poorest when you are richest.The fault-finder will find faults in paradise.Love your life,poor as it is.You may perhaps have some pleasant,thrilling,glorious hourss,even in a poor-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,and have as cheering thoughts,as in a palace.The town's poor seem to me often to 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 by 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。

爱情的见证

Love's Witness

Slight unpremeditated Words are borne
By every common Wind into the Air;
Carelessly utter'd, die as soon as born，
And in one instant give both Hope and Fear：
Breathing all Contraries with the same Wind
According to the Caprice of the Mind.
But Billetdoux are constant Witnesses，
Substantial Records to Eternity;
Just Evidences，who the Truth confess,
On which the Lover safely may rely；
They're serious Thoughts，digested and resolv'd；
And last，when Words are into Clouds devolv'd.

不加思索的轻率话语，
被每一次平凡的呼吸载入空气；
随便说说，刚出口即消失，
一瞬间给人希望和恐惧：
同一气息呼出万般矛盾心肠，
追随心灵无常的遐想。
但情书则是恒常的见证，
直至永恒的实体记录；
公道的证物，它道出真诚，
恋人能在其上安心依附；
它们是严肃的思想，经过深思熟虑；
当话语在云外消失，它们还将延续。

从不说他做不到

We Never Told Him He Couldn't Do It

My son Joey was born with club feet. The doctors assured us that with treatment he would be able to walk normally - but would never run very well. The first three years of his life were spent in surgery, casts and braces. By the time he was eight, you wouldn't know he had a problem when you saw him walk .

The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do during play, and Joey would jump right in and run and play, too. We never told him that he probably wouldn't be able to run as well as the other children. So he didn't know.

In seventh grade he decided to go out for the cross-country team. Every day he trained with the team. He worked harder and ran more than any of the others - perhaps he sensed that the abilities that seemed to come naturally to so many others did not come naturally to him. Although the entire team runs, only the top seven runners have the potential to score points for the school. We didn't tell him he probably would never make the team, so he didn't know.

He continued to run four to five miles a day, every day - even the day he had a 103-degree fever. I was worried, so I went to look for him after school. I found him running all alone. I asked him how he felt. "Okay," he said. He had two more miles to go. The sweat ran down his face and his eyes were glassy from his fever. Yet he looked straight ahead and kept running. We never told him he couldn't run four miles with a 103-degree fever. So he didn't know.

Two weeks later, the names of the team runners were called. Joey was number six on the list. Joey had made the team. He was in seventh grade - the other six team members were all eighth-graders. We never told him he shouldn't expect to make the team. We never told him he couldn't do it. We never told him he couldn't do it...so he didn't know. He just did it.

从不说他做不到

我的儿子琼尼降生时，他的双脚向上弯弯着，医生向我们保证说经过治疗，小琼尼可以像常人一样走路，但像常人一样跑步的可能性则微乎其微。琼尼3岁之前一直在接受治疗，和支架、石膏模子打交道。七八岁的时候，他走路的样子已让人看不出他的腿有过毛病。

邻居的小孩子们做游戏的时候总是跑过来跑过去。毫无疑问小琼尼看到他们玩就会马上加进去跑啊闹的。我们从不告诉他不能像别的孩子那样跑，我们从不说他和别的孩子不一样。因为我们不对他说，所以他不知道。

七年级的时候，琼尼决定参加跑步横穿全美的比赛。每天他和大伙一块训练。也许是意识到自己先天不如别人，他训练得比任何人都刻苦。训练队的前7名选手可以参加最后比赛，为学校拿分。我们没有告诉琼尼；也许会落空，所以他不知道。

他坚持每天跑4~5英里。我永远不会忘记有一次，他发着高烧，但仍坚持训练。我为他担心，于是去学校看他，发现他正在一个人沿着长长的林荫道跑步呢。我问他感觉怎么样，"很好。"他说。还剩下最后两英里。他满脸是汗，眼睛因为发烧失去了光彩。然而他目不斜视，坚持着跑下来。我们从没有告诉他不能发着高烧去跑4英里的路，我们从没有这样对他说，所以他不知道。

两个星期后，在决赛前的3天，长跑队的名次被确定下来。琼尼是第六名，他成功了。他才是个七年级生，而其余的人都是八年级生。我们从没有告诉他不要去期望入选，我们从没有对他说他不会成功。是的，从没说起过……所以他不知道，但他却做到了！

当时伐木者和火车尚未严重破坏湖畔的美丽景致。小男孩可以走向湖中，仰卧小舟。自一岸缓缓漂向另一岸，周遭有鸟儿戏水，燕子翻飞。梭罗喜欢回忆这样的艳阳天和夏日，“慵懒是最迷人也是最具生产力的事情！”

我也曾经是热爱湖塘的小男孩，拥有无数个艳阳天与夏日。如今阳光、夏日依旧，男孩和湖塘却已改变。那男孩已长大成人，不再有那么多时间泛舟湖上。而湖塘也为大城市所并。曾有苍鹭觅食的沼泽，如今已枯竭殆尽，上面盖满了房舍。睡莲静静漂浮的湖湾。现在成了汽艇的避风港。总之，男孩所爱的一切已不复存在----只留在人们的回忆中。

there
is

真正珍惜过去的人，不会悲叹旧日美好时光的逝去。因为藏于记忆中的时光永不流失。死亡本身无法止住一个记忆中的声音，或擦除一个记忆中的微笑。对现已长大成人的那个男孩来说，那儿将有一个湖塘不会因时间和潮汐而改变，可以让他继续在阳光下享受安静时光。

The
Power
of
Gratitude
(感恩的力量）

When
my
older
son
was
diagnosed
with
Attention
Deficit
Hyperactivity
Disorder,
my
first
reaction
was
relief
－
I
finally
knew
the
reason
for
his
behavior.
However,
I
was
also
overwhelmed
with
sadness,
fear
and
anger.
I
felt
sorry
for
my
son
and
for
myself.
Like
many
others
in
similar
circumstances,
my
question
to
God
was
"Why
me?"
Through
the
grace
of
God,
I
am
now
able
to
focus
on
my
gratitude.
I
believe
God
chose
me
to
raise
my
son
because
He
knew
that
I
would
give
him
the
best
I
have.
He
will
teach
me
to
love
and
understand
him
for
who
he
is.
I
am
grateful
that
I
have
my
son,
and
grateful
that
God
chose
me
to
be
his
mother.
There
is
power
and
healing
in
gratitude.
How
can
gratitude
help
us
in
our
everyday
lives
as
moms?
Think
about
the
difference
you
can
make
in
your
family’s
life
just
by
noticing
and
being
thankful
for
all
the
great
things
they
do.
When
you
express
gratitude,
you
show
your
love
and
appreciation.
Everyone
needs
to
feel
these
things
every
day.
Sometimes
as
moms
we
feel
that
no
one
appreciates
us
－
and
it
is
true
that
moms
are
usually
last
on
the
list
to
be
thanked.
One
way
you
can
teach
gratitude
is
by
example.
Even
on
the
days
when
it
seems
your
children
or
husband
are
doing
everything
wrong,
find
a
reason
to
thank
them.
Take
the
time
and
energy
to
look
for
the
good.
Think
about
the
things
that
your
family
does
that
deserve
a
“Thank
you.”
You
might
say
to
your
husband,
“Thank
you
for
working
so
hard
for
our
family,"
or,
to
your
child,
“I
really
appreciate
your
sense
of
humor
－
it
feels
good
to
laugh.”
Expressing
your
gratitude
helps
family
members
to
understand
how
it
feels
to
be
appreciated.
And
if
they
still
don’t
catch
on,
let
them
know
when
you
feel
unappreciated.
You
can
also
tell
them
how
great
it
makes
you
feel
when
they
do
express
gratitude.
Gratitude
is
a
wonderful
motivator
when
you
need
cooperation.
When
enlisting
the
help
of
my
two
year
old,
I
praise
him
often
and
with
enthusiasm.
I
let
him
know
that
he
is
a
great
helper.
I
know
I
am
teaching
him
appreciation
because
he
expresses
it
to
me.
The
other
day
I
brought
a
bunch
of
multi-colored
roses
home.
For
five
days,
at
least
once
or
twice
a
day,
my
son
thanked
me
for
the
flowers.
Sometimes
we
get
so
busy
and
caught
up
in
daily
life
that
we
forget
to
be
grateful.
We
expect
everyone
to
do
their
share
without
being
asked.
The
only
time
anyone
hears
anything
is
when
a
chore
has
not
been
completed.
This
attitude,
over
the
long
haul,
will
develop
very
resentful
and
uncooperative
family
members.
When
life
is
good,
gratitude
is
easy.
It
becomes
more
challenging
to
be
grateful
when
we
are
experiencing
hard
times.
Financial
hardship,
long-term
illness,
the
death
of
a
loved
one
and
marital
strife
can
all
be
trying
and
difficult.
It
is
hard
to
find
anything
to
be
grateful
for.
But
while
pain
is
inevitable,
suffering
is
optional.
We
have
a
choice
in
how
we
view
our
circumstances.
We
can
turn
our
hearts
to
God
and
trust
that
he
has
a
plan
for
us.
We
can
be
thankful
for
the
lessons
we
learn
and
the
opportunities
for
personal
growth
and
transformation.
Look
at
all
the
people
in
this
world
who
share
the
gifts
they
received
during
especially
difficult
times
of
their
life.
It
is
the
painful
times
of
my
life
that
have
made
me
stronger,
wiser,
and
more
loving
today.
I
recently
attended
a
powerful
seminar
on
the
various
levels
of
energy
that
a
human
being
emanates.
The
presenter
identified
seven
different
levels
of
energy.
The
first
level
of
energy
is
defined
by
feelings
of
apathy
and
thoughts
of
victimization.
A
person
at
a
level
two
energy
has
feelings
of
anger
and
thoughts
of
conflict.
As
a
person
moves
up
the
energy
scale,
their
feelings
and
thoughts
are
more
positive.
At
level
seven,
one
would
experience
unconditional
love
and
no
judgmental
thoughts.
Only
God
radiates
at
level
seven.
The
average
person
emits
energy
at
a
level
of
2.5.
To
experience
peace
and
joy,
an
in-
dividual
must
raise
his
energy
level
to
5
or
6.
So
how
can
we
raise
our
energy
level
and
open
our
heart
to
joy?
One
powerful
way
is
to
develop
an
attitude
of
gratitude.
Look
at
every-
one
with
grateful
eyes.
Listen
to
your
heart
and
the
heart
of
your
loved
ones.
Speak
words
of
affirmation
every
day
of
your
life.
Be
grateful
for
your
life
with
all
its
lessons
and
blessings.
The
more
grateful
thoughts
and
feelings
you
experience
and
express
the
more
instrumental
you
will
be
in
healing
the
world.
And
your
outlook
on
life
will
improve
in
the
process.

　　Tulips（郁金香）
　　by Abraham Cowley
　　Let tulips trust not the warm vernal rain,
　　But dread the frosts and still their blooms restrains
　　So when bright Phoebus smiles with kindly care
　　The moon not sullied by a lowering air,
　　Early the beauteous race you'll wondering see,
　　Ranged in the beds ,a numerous progeny
　　The tulip with her painted charms display
　　Through the mild air,and make the garden gay
　　The tulip which with gaudy colours stained
　　The name of beauty to her race has gained
　　For whether she in scarlet does delight
　　Chequered and streaked with lines of glittering whit
　　Or sprinkled o'er with purple charms our sight;
　　Or widow-like beneath a sable veil
　　her purest , the varied agate's veins
　　From every flower the beauty's prize obtained.
　　郁金香
　　让郁金香相信春天的绵绵细雨
　　但它会担心霜冻会阻止她们的花期，
　　所以，当太阳温柔地呵护她的，
　　月亮没有用污秽的气息影响她
　　当年，这美丽的种族，你们惊奇地发现
　　漫游在河床，无数的后裔
　　郁金香，显现她媚人的美丽
　　穿越温熏的空气，让花园心悦
　　郁金香，带着绚丽的斑斓色彩
　　美丽的名字因为她而获得
　　因为不管她那猩红的开心
　　和耀眼的亮白不安
　　或者紫色的魔力
　　或者昏黑的孤寡
　　她的纯净美丽，在杂色花丛
　　赢得了每一朵鲜花的珍视。

　　家（1）
　　Mid pleasures and palaces though we may roam,
　　虽然我们也会沉迷于欢乐与奢靡中，
　　Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home!
　　无论家是多么简陋，没有地方比得上它！
　　A charm from the skies seems to hallow us there,
　　好似从空而降的魔力，使我们在家觉得圣洁
　　Which seek through the world, is ne'er met with elsewhere,
　　就是找遍全世界，也找不到像这样的地方，
　　Home! Home! Sweet, sweet Home!
　　家啊！家啊！甜蜜的家啊！
　　There's no place like Home! There's no place like Home!
　　没有地方比得上家！没有地方比得上家！
　　（2）
　　I gaze on the moon as I tread the drear wild,
　　每当我漫步荒野凝视明月，
　　And feel that my mother now thinks of her child,
　　便想起母亲正惦念着她的孩子，
　　As she looks on that moon from our own cottage door,
　　当她从茅舍门口遥望明月时，
　　Through the woodbine， whose fragrance shall cheer me no more.
　　穿过冬忍树丛，浓郁树香再也不能安慰我的心灵。
　　Home! Home! Sweet, sweet Home!
　　家啊！家啊！甜蜜的家啊！
　　There's no place like Home! There's no place like Home!
　　没有地方比得上家！没有地方比得上家！
　　（3）
　　An exile from home, splendor dazzles in vain;
　　对一个离乡背井的游子，再华丽的光辉，也是徒然闪烁；
　　Oh， give me my lowly thatch'd cottage again!
　　一栋矮檐茅舍！
　　The birds singing gaily, that came at my call-
　　一呼即来的鸟儿正在欢唱
　　Give me them, and the peace of mind, dearer than all!
　　赐给它们－还有心灵的平静，这些胜过一切！
　　Home! Home! Sweet, sweet Home!
　　家啊！家啊！甜蜜的家啊！
　　There's no place like Home! There's no place like Home!
　　没有地方比得上家！没有地方比得上家！

　　Discovery发现
　　Diane Ackerman/迪安.阿克曼

　　The word “discovery” literally means, uncovering something that’s hidden from view. But what really happens is a change in the viewer. The familiar offers comfort few can resist, and fewer still want to disturb. But as relatively recent inventions such as the telescope and microscope have taught us, the unknown has many layers. Every truth has geological strata, and you can’t have an orthodoxy without a heresy.
　　The moment a newborn opens its eyes, discovery begins. I learned this with a laugh one morning after delivering a calf. When it lifted up its fluffy head and looked at me, its eyes held the absolute bewilderment of the newly born. A moment before it had the even black nowhere of the womb, and suddenly its world was full of colour, movement and noise. I’ve never seen anything so shocked to be alive.

　　“发现”一词，字面上是指揭开某种视线以外的隐藏的事物。不过其实是观察者自身发生了变化。很少人能抗拒熟悉事物带来的舒适，愿意扰乱这种舒适的人更少。然而，正如望远镜、显微镜这些较为近期的发明所揭示给我们的，求知事物具有多种层次。每个事实都有地质层次，没有异端也就无所谓正统。
　　新生儿睁开双眼的那一刻起，发现也就开始了。我是在一天清晨给一头小牛犊接生的时候突然意识到这一点的，不禁大笑。小牛仰起毛茸茸的脑袋看着我，目光中透出这个新生命对世界的一无所知。片刻这前，它还呆在母体里某个黑暗而平静的地方，突然，它的世界变得五光十色，变得活泼而喧闹。我从未见过任何东西在获得生命时是如些的惊异。

　　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 it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The fault-finder will find faults in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poor-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, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace. The town's poor seem to me often to 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 by 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。
