第40章 以爱之名 (13)

The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you can’ t go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you’ re the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.

Please send this message to those people who mean something to you, to those who have touched your life in one way or another, to those who make you smile when you really need it, to those that make you see the brighter side of things when you are really down, to those who you want to let them know that you appreciate their friendship. And if you don’ t, don’ t worry, nothing bad will happen to you, you will just miss out on the opportunity to brighten someone’ s day with this message.

在遇到心仪之人前,上帝也许会让我们先遇到其他不合适的人;这样,在我们最终遇见时,便会心存感恩。

当一扇幸福之门关闭时,另一扇便会开启。可多数时候,我们却因过久地凝望那扇紧闭的门,而忽略了为我们新敞开的那扇门。

最好的朋友是那些与你心意相通的人,你会觉得你们的相对无言,是最美妙的心灵交流。

只有失去了,才知其珍贵;同样,只有拥有了,才发现其匮乏。这是至理名言。

施与真爱,不求回报,期待爱的传播,享受着对爱的自我满足。迷恋上一个人,需要一分钟;喜欢上她,需要一个小时;爱上她,需要一天;忘记她,则需要整整一生。

切勿追求外表的华美,它是不可靠的;切勿追求财富,它会灰飞烟灭。微笑,可以把光明洒向黑暗之隅,那么,追寻可以使你永远微笑的人,寻找能够使你会心而笑的人吧。

人的一生有许多这样的时刻:当你朝思暮想某人的时候,你恨不得把他从梦境中拉出来,与他真切地相拥于现实中!

生命不可轮回,机会不可再来,在有生之年,做自己想做的事,做自己想做的梦,去自己想去的地方,做自己想做的人吧。

愿快乐永远陪伴你,使你越发亲切可人;愿磨难时常伴随你,使你日渐坚强有力;愿心肺痛彻,令你人性通达;愿希望满怀,令你幸福快乐。

要经常换位思考。如果你感觉伤害到了自己,那么,可能别人也受到了伤害。

最幸福的人不一定拥有最美好的一切,他们只是最充分地珍惜了他们所拥有的一切。

幸福属于那些曾哭泣之人,曾受伤之人,不断探索之人。只有他们,才懂得对自己生活有影响的人们的重要性。

爱,起于微笑,浓于亲吻,逝于泪水。

光明的未来往往建立在对过去遗忘的基础之上。如果你总是沉湎于过去的失败和痛心中不能自拔,生活就不可能变得更加美好。

当你呱呱落地时,你哭着,周围的人都笑着。真诚地面对生活,那样,当你走到生命的尽头之时,才会是你笑着,周围的人哭着。

请把这些赠与对你的生命至关重要的那些人,那些曾影响你生活的人,那些给你微笑的人,那些在逆境中使你依然乐观向上的人,那些你想让他们知道你是多么珍惜与他们的情谊的人。即使你没有这样做,没关系,你不会因此倒霉,只是,用这些言语照亮他人生活的机会将与你失之交臂。

心灵小语

恋上一个人,需要一分钟;喜欢上她,需要一个小时;爱上她,需要一天;忘记她,则需要整整一生。

世间最美丽的心

The Most Beautiful Heart

佚名 / Anonymous

One day a young man was standing in the middle of the town proclaiming that he had the most beautiful heart in the whole word. A large crowd gathered and they all admired his heart for it was perfect. There was not a mark or a flaw in it. Yes, they all agreed it truly was the most beautiful heart they had ever seen. The young man was very proud and boasted more loudly about his beautiful heart.

Suddenly, an old man appeared at the front of the crowd and said, “Your heart is not nearly as beautiful as mine.” The crowd and the young man looked at the old man’ s heart. It was beating strongly, but full of scars, it had places where pieces had been removed and other pieces put in, but they didn’ t fit quite right and there were several jagged edges. In fact, in some places there were deep gouges where whole pieces were missing.

The people stared—how can he say his heart is more beautiful? The young man looked at the old man’ s heart and saw its state and laughed. “You must be joking,” he said. “Compare your heart with mine, mine is perfect and yours is a mess of scars and tears.”

“Yes,” said the old man, “Yours is perfect looking but I would never trade with you. You see, every scar represents a person to whom I have given my love—I tear out a piece of my heart and give it to them, and often they give me a piece of their heart which fits into the empty place in my heart, but because the pieces aren’ t exact, I have some rough edges, which I cherish, because they remind me of the love we shared. Sometimes I have given pieces of my heart away, and the other person hasn’ t returned a piece of his heart to me. These are the empty gouges—giving love is taking a chance. Although these gouges are painful, they stay open, reminding me of the love I have for these people too, and I hope someday they may return and fill the space in my heart. So now do you see what true beauty is?”

The young man stood silently with tears running down his cheeks. He walked up to the old man, reached into his perfect young and beautiful heart, and ripped a piece out. He offered it to the old man with trembling hands.

The old man took his offering, placed it in his heart and then took a piece from his old scarred heart and placed it in the wound in the young man’ s heart. It fit, but not perfectly, as there were some jagged edges. The young man looked at his heart, not perfect anymore but more beautiful than ever, since love from the old man’ s heart flowed into his. They embraced and walked away side by side.
