我希望能如此对待自己的生命——来到世间,竭尽全力的生活。我宁愿像蜡烛般燃尽,也不愿让自己锈迹斑斑。我宁愿将生命全部耗尽,也不愿临死之时自己能做和想做的事情都没来得及做。
I’m not talking about wearing ourselves out on over-activity. Happiness is never found in excessive busyness. But it is found in investing our lives in others. Saying yes when asked for a hand. Volunteering some time for a worthwhile organization. Spending an hour with a lonely relative.
我所说的不是要过度劳累从而让我们精疲力竭。幸福不在于过于忙碌,而在于帮助他人。当有人向你求助时,答应他。为一个值得花费精力的组织去做志愿者。用一小时来陪伴你一个孤独的亲戚。
In the end, I know that my happiness will not have been about by my ability or my inability. It will have been about my availability. My life is meant to be lived.
最后,我知道我的幸福与我能做什么、不能做什么没有关系。幸福只和我乐于助人有关。我的生命要活得精彩。
