我的英语太差，很少阅读！不过在朋友的空间发现，阅读英文文章和中文一样也有很多哲理！

下面转载一下，既是学习英语又是学习其中的哲理:

As a human being, there are some of life’s lessons we need to learn:
作为一个人，我们有很多生活的教训需要吸取：


We get bored of being children, are in a rush to grow up, and then long to be children again.
我们厌倦了做小孩子，匆匆忙忙地长大，然后又想重新成为小孩子。
[教训一：孩提时代是最天真无邪，无忧无虑的，如果你的心已不再年轻，那么珍惜你内心深处还仅存的那份童真吧！]

We lose our health to make money and then lose our money to restore our health.
我们因为挣钱而失去健康，然后我们又花钱来恢复我们的健康。
[教训二：钱是身外之物，没有了身体，没有了生命，财富对我们来说便失去了意义。]

By thinking anxiously about the future, we forget the present, such that we live neither for the present nor the future.
我们急切地憧憬着未来，忘记了现在，以至于我们不是为了现实而活，也不是为了将来而活。
[教训三：活着就是现在。 过好生活的每一天，我们才不会后悔。]

That we cannot make anyone love us. What we can do is to let ourselves be loved.
我们不能让所有的人都爱我们，我们可以做的就是让我们自己被别人关爱。
[教训四：我们需要走自己的路，并完善自我，只有这样我们才能赢得更多的关爱。]

That what is most valuable is mot what we have in our lives, but who we have in our lives.
生命中最有价值的不在于我们拥有什么，而在于我们生活中遇到过什么人。
[教训五：我们的生命因为生活中遇到不同的人而变得丰富。]

That a rich person is not the one who has the most, but is one who needs the least.
一个富裕的人不是拥有东西最多的人，而是需要东西最少的人。
[教训六：知足才能常乐。]

That it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in persons we love, and that it takes many years to heal them.
只需几秒钟我们就能带给我们爱的人深刻的创伤，而要治愈伤口，我们却需要很多年。
[教训七：珍惜我们关爱的人，不要轻易带给他们伤害。]

To forgive by practicing forgiveness.
通过宽恕来谅解别人。
[教训八：宽容是一种美德，要责己以周，不要责人以全。]

That there are persons who love us dearly, but simply do not know how to express or show their feelings.
有很多人疼爱我们，但他们只是不知道表达他们的情感而已。
[教训九：表达爱的方式有很多种，爱需要去感受和理解。]

That money can buy everything but happiness.
金钱买不到快乐。
[教训十：钱不是万能的，快乐不是一种交易的结果。]

That two people can look at the same thing and see it totally different.
两个人可以对相同的事有完全不同非看法。
[教训十一：我们要学会包容，求同存异。]

That a true friend is someone who knows everything about us, and likes us anyway.
真正的朋友对我们了如指掌，无论怎样都不会讨厌我们。
[教训十二：朋友会喜欢我们的优点，包容我们的缺点，永远不要欺骗你的朋友。]

That it is not always enough that we are forgiven by others, but that we have to forgive ourselves.
知道我们被别人原谅是不够的，我们还需要原谅自己。
[教训十三：宽容自己才能放下思想包袱，轻松生活.]

When you know you're right, you can't back down.

Always give others credit that is rightfully theirs. Don't be afraid of those who might have a better idea or who might even be smarter than you are.

Be honest and open about who you really are. People who lack genuine core values rely on external factors-their looks or status-in order to feel good about themselves. Inevitably they will do everything they can to preserve this facade, but they will do very little to develop their inner value and personal growth.

So be yourself. Don't engage in a personal coverup of areas that are unpleasing in your life. When it's tough, do it tough. In other words, face reality and be adult in your responses to life's challenges.

Self-respect and a clear conscience are powerful components of integrity and are the basis for enriching your relationships with others.

Integrity means you do what you do because it's right and not just fashionable or politically correct. A life of principle, of not succumbing to the seductive sirens of an easy morality, will always win the day.

当你知道你做得对的时候，你就不能退缩。

对那些值得赞扬的人要常常给予肯定。切莫害怕那些可能有更好主意的或者那些可能比你更聪明的人。

真诚、坦率地展示真实的你。那些缺乏真正的基本价值观念的人，为了使自己感觉良好而依靠外在因素----相貌或社会地位。他们势必尽一切可能来保全这种表面形象，却很少会去培养自己内在的价值和注重个人的成长。

因此，要展示你的真面目。不要设法掩盖你生活中令人不快的方方面面。艰难时刻要顽强。换言之，要正视现实。面对生活的挑战，要老成持重，应付有方。

自尊和问心无愧是构成诚实的强有力的成分，是丰富你与他人关系的基础。

诚实意味着，你之所以做你所做的事是因为你做的是对的，而不是因为你的行为是时髦的或在政治上是正确的。始终能够赢得胜利的是那种坚持行为准则、不屈从于一种安逸伦理观诱惑的生活。

Loving Yourself Unconditionally 全心全意爱自己
 Here is monica a humble effort offered to you in the hopes that you'll find something here that is worth your while, something that moves or inspires or motivates you in very positive ways.

It's not easy... loving yourself unconditionally, because we've learned to judge ourselves...
这是不是轻松的事情,因为全心全意爱自己,我们要学会正确的判断我们自己!
We seem to be driven to find what we perceive as "the missing piece" in our lives as if we are flawed, or not good enough. Somehow enough never seems like enough and we live our lives in a constant and never ending search which leaves u* **hausted.

What we forget are the sweet moments of being present with ourselves like we are when watching a sunset.
     Today, I’m inviting you to take time to be present within yourself, dwell in your heart space, and give yourself a well deserved break from striving and struggling...

Just be in the present moment and allow yourself to stop searching for more and to notice how much you already have inside.

Everyday we’re preoccupied with obligations and responsibilities under great pressures from others and from ourselves, and what we truly ignore or forget are ourselves. From today on, let’s start to love ourselves, unconditionall
