THE SIGNIFICANCE OF FAILURE Robert H. Schuller Failure doesn't mean you are a failure, It does mean you haven't succeeded yet. Failure doesn't mean you have accomplished nothing, It does mean you have learned something. Failure doesn't mean you have been a fool, It does mean you had a lot of faith. Failure doesn't mean you've been disgraced, It does mean you were willing to try. Failure doesn't mean you don't have it, It does mean you have to do something in a different way. Failure doesn't mean you are inferior, It does mean you are not perfect. Failure doesn't mean you've wasted your life, It does mean you have a reason to start afresh. Failure doesn't mean you should give up, It does mean you must try harder. Failure doesn't mean you'll never make it, It does mean it will take a little longer. Failure doesn't mean God has abandoned you, It does mean God has a better idea. 失败的意义 罗伯特·H·舒勒 失败并不代表你是个失败者, 它只表明你尚未成功。 失败并不代表你一无所获, 它只表明你吸取了一次教训。 失败并不代表你很愚蠢, 它只表明你信心百倍。 失败并不代表你无脸见人, 它只表明你百折不回。 失败并不代表你工夫白费, 它只表明你的做事方法尚待改进。失败并不代表你低人一等。 它只表明你并非完人。 失败并不代表你浪费生命, 它只表明你有理由重新开始。 失败并不代表你应该放弃, 它只表明你要加倍努力。 失败并不代表成功永不属于你,它只表明你要付出更多的时间。失败并不代表上帝已经抛弃你,它只表明上帝还有更好的主意。 THE VALUE OF TIME Katharine Sun To realize the value of one year: Ask a student who has failed a final exam.

Rossetti Love Your Life(热爱生活) 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。 我所追求的生活 The Life I Desired That must be the story of innumerable couples, and the pattern of lifeof life it offers has a homely grace. It reminds you of a placid rivulet, meandering smoohtly through green pastures and shaded by pleasant trees, till at last it falls into the vasty sea; but the sea is so calm, so silent, so infifferent, that you are troubled suddently by a vague uneasiness. Perhaps it is only by a kink in my nature, strong in me even in those days, that i felt in such an existence, the share of the great majority, something amiss. I recognized its social value. I saw its ordered happiness, but a fever in my blood asked for a wilder course. There seemed to me something alarming in such easy delights. In my heart was desire to live more dangerously. I was not unprepared for jagged rocks and treacherous, shoals it I could only have change-change and the exicitement of unforeseen. 这一定是世间无数对夫妻的生活写照,这种生活模式给人一种天伦之美。它使人想起一条平静的溪流,蜿蜒畅游过绿茵的草场,浓荫遮蔽,最后注入烟波浩渺的汪洋大海;但是大海太过平静,太过沉默,太过不动声色,你会突然感到莫名的不安。也许这只是我自己的一种怪诞想法,在那样的时代,这想法对我影响很深:我觉得这像大多数人一样的生活,似乎欠缺了一点儿什么。我承认这种生活有社会价值,我也看到了它那井然有序的幸福,但我血液里的冲动却渴望一种更桀骜不驯的旅程.这样的安逸中好像有一种叫我惊惧不安的东西.我的心渴望一种更加惊险的生活。只要生活中还能有变迁——以及不可知的刺激,我愿意踏上怪石嶙峋的山崖,奔赴暗礁满布的海滩。 Have Faith and Expect the Best 心怀信念并追求完 美 Faith begins by believing in your heart that what is right has a chance. 信念始于内心对机缘深信不疑。 Faith is knowing in your heart that good can overcome evil, that the sun can shine in a rainstrom. 信念是心底深信善良能战胜邪恶,太阳会在暴风雨中升起。 Faith is peaceful and comforting, because it comes from within where no one can invade your private dreams. 信念平静而给人慰藉,它源于心灵深处,在那里,无人能窥探只属于你的秘密。 Faith is not something you can demand or command; it is a result of commitment to belief. 信念不可强求或控制,它是对信仰忠贞不渝的自然流露。 Faith is believing in something you can't see or hear, something deep inside that only you understand and only you control. 信念是只有你能理解和驾驭的内心所想,它无法捉摸,但你要笃信不疑。 Faith is trusting in yourself enough to know that no matter how things turn out, you will make the best of them. 信念就是坚信自己无论如何总能将糟糕的局面扭转,展现事态的最好一面。诗歌:Have Faith and Expect the Best 心怀信念并追求完美 Download MP3 Audio Faith begins by believing in your heart that what is right has a chance. 信念始于内心对机缘深信不疑。 Faith is knowing in your heart that good can overcome evil, that the sun can shine in a rainstrom. 信念是心底深信善良能战胜邪恶,太阳会在暴风雨中升起。 Faith is peaceful and comforting, because it comes from within where no one can invade your private dreams. 信念平静而给人慰藉,它源于心灵深处,在那里,无人能窥探只属于你的秘密。 Faith is not something you can demand or command; it is a result of commitment to belief. 信念不可强求或控制,它是对信仰忠贞不渝的自然流露。 Faith is believing in something you can't see or hear, something deep inside that only you understand and only you control. 信念是只有你能理解和驾驭的内心所想,它无法捉摸,但你要笃信不疑。 Faith is trusting in yourself enough to know that no matter how things turn out, you will make the best of them. 信念就是坚信自己无论如何总能将糟糕的局面扭转,展现事态的最好一面。 假如生活欺骗了你 普希金 If by life you were deceived, Don't be dismal,don't be wild! In the day of grief, be mild . Merry days will come, believe. Heart is living in tomorrow; Present is dejected here; In a moment,passes sorrow; That which passes will be dear. life Life can be good, Life can be bad, Life is mostly cheerful, But sometimes sad. Life can be dreams, Life can be great thoughts; Life can mean a person, Sitting in court. Life can be dirty, Life can even be painful; But life is what you make it, So try to make it beautiful. 生活 兰斯顿·休斯 生活可能美满, 生活可能悲伤, 生活常常充满欢乐, 但有时令人沮丧。 生活可能是梦幻一场, 生活可能是智慧结晶;生活也可能将一个人送上被告法庭。 生活可能丑陋, 生活甚至可能痛苦;但生活是你自己创造,所以努力创造幸福。 Goodbye Again, Cambridge! I leave softly, gently, Exactly as I came. I wave to the western sky, Telling it goodbye softly, gently. The golden willow at the river edge Is the setting sun‘s bride. Her quivering reflection Stays fixed in my mind. Green grass on the bank Dances on a watery floor In bright reflection. I wish myself a bit of waterweed Vibrating to the ripple. Of the River Cam. That creek in the shade of the great elms Is not a creek but a shattered rainbow, Printed on the water And inlaid with duckweed, It is my lost dream. Hunting a dream? Wielding a long punting pole I get my boat into green water, Into still greener grass. In a flood of starlight On a river of silver and diamond I sing to my heart‘s content. But now, no, I cannot sing With farewell in my heart. Farewells must be quiet, mute, Even the summer insects are silent, Knowing I am leaving. The Cambridge night is soundless. I leave quietly As I came quietly. I am leaving Without taking so much As a piece of cloud. But with a quick jerk of my sleave I wave goodbye.
