The sun has begun to set and I hang up the smile I’ve worn all day, though I will make sure it is the first thing I put backon in the morning just in case it is “that day.” I want her to see me at my very best.
太阳将要下⼭,我收起挂了⼀天的微笑,不过我会确保明天早上第⼀件事就是将它⼜挂回去,以防这天就是“那⼀天”。我希望她看到我的状态。
I do the normal routine, eat dinner, clean the house, write—the usual stuff. And then I lay down hoping to fall asleepquickly so my new day will hurry up and arrive. A new day with a brand new sun. But as I lay there and wait for the world toturn half way around, I think about her. And sometimes I smile, and sometimes that smile will turn into snicker, and then oftenthat snicker will turn into a burst of laughter.
我按平时的规律吃晚餐、打扫屋⼦、写作——做着⽇常事务。然后我躺下,希望能快点⼊睡,新的⼀天就能快点到来——拥有新⽣太阳的崭新的⼀天。可当我躺在那⼉,等待着世界的⽇夜回转时,我想到了她。有时我会笑起来,有时那微笑变成了窃笑,然后窃笑⼜常常变成爆笑。
And then there are times I get that lump in my throat and that tight feeling in my chest, and sometimes that feelingoverwhelms me and begins to turn into a tear, and often that tear multiplies itself and I can no longer fight the feeling and Ilose the battle. Then somehow through either the joy or the sadness I drift and find myself asleep. Then the dreams beginand keep me company until my new day arrives.
也有些时候,我的喉咙像是被⼀块东西哽住了,胸⼝发闷;有时那种伤感席卷⽽来,我开始流泪,眼泪常常越流越多,我再也⽆⼒抵抗悲伤,败下阵来。然后不知怎的,我在或喜悦或悲伤中飘荡,逐渐⼊眠。然后梦境开始伴我左右,直⾄新的⼀天到来。
When I awake it’s with such excitement because I tell myself this could be the day that every other day has led up to andthe first day of the rest of my life. I quickly don my smile because I do so want her to see me at my very best. Then I look outthe window because, even though I know it’s dawn, I still have to confirm I’ve been given another chance to find her.
醒来时,我兴奋不已,因为我告诉⾃⼰今天也许就是之前其他⽇⼦为之打下基础的“那⼀天”,是我余⽣的第⼀天。我迅速挂上微笑,因为我真的很想让她看到我的状态。然后我朝窗外看去,因为即使我知道现在才刚刚破晓,我仍得确定⾃⼰可以与她再次邂逅。
And there it is…the sun, even when it’s cloudy; somehow I still see it. And it smiles at me and I say, “Thank you,” and Ismile back.
它在那⾥……太阳,虽然还是云雾重重,但我还是看到它了。它朝我微笑,我道了声“谢谢”,回以⼀笑。
Then I ask myself, “Is this the day?” And the excitement rushes over me again. And then I ask myself, “Where’s it goingto be?”
然后我问⾃⼰:“今天就是那⼀天吗?”兴奋之情再次充溢全⾝。然后我问⾃⼰:“它会在哪⾥呢?”
Maybe it’ll be at the water fountain, and, unexpectedly, there I’ll find her, and much more than my thirst will be quenched.Maybe it’ll be at the grocery store and there she’ll appear as I’m picking out fruit, and she’ll show me the difference betweenfresh and spoiled. Then, from that moment, nothing that I eat will ever taste the same because she’ll bring out the simplestbeauties in everything I see, taste, smell, hear, or touch.
也许它会藏在饮⽔机⾥,没想到我真能在那⾥找到她,为我⽣津⽌渴,取之不尽。也许它会躲在杂货店⾥,我拿起⽔果的时候,她就出现了,她会给我展⽰新鲜和变质的不同。然后,从那⼀刻开始,我所尝到的⼀切味道不再⼀样,因为但凡我看到的、尝到的、闻到的、听到的或摸到的东西,她都带出了它们最简单的美丽。
Or maybe today will be the day when my angel brings an item up to the cash register without its price tag. And as I waitbehind this angel with all the frustrated people who are in such a hurry with their busy lives, I will find myself with suchblessed extra time. Just enough time to start a conversation with this beautiful vision standing in front of me that I might nototherwise have noticed, but, because of a “price check on register 5,” I was able to find her.
或许就在今天,我的天使把⼀件没有价格标签的商品拿到收银台。我在天使⾝后排队,看着⾝⼼疲惫的.⼈们忙忙碌碌地过⽇⼦,庆幸⾃⼰得到了这样的额外时间,让我可以和⾯前的倩影闲聊⼀会⼉,否则我也许会错过,但只因为⼀句“请到5号收银台付款”,我就能找到她。
Thank you for the sun, which began my new day. Thank you for granting me the faith when I arose this morning that Iwould find her in this new day. But most of all, thank you for me not having to ever wait on another sunrise becausewhenever I want to see it, I will look at her and there it shall always be, in her eyes; she will forever hold it for me.
感谢太阳,它是新⼀天的开始。感谢你让我今早⼀起床就满怀信⼼,知道⾃⼰能在这新的⼀天找到她。但最要感谢的是我不必再等下⼀个⽇出,因为⽆论我想何时看到它,我都可以看向她,它总会出现在她的双眸⾥;她永远为我留着。 She is my sunrise, my dawn, my new day. 她是我的⽇出,我的黎明,我崭新的⼀天。
2.英语美⽂摘抄翻译
Change is considerably easier when you have a full complement of supporting partners and unlimited resources. But,since very often it is the shock of a death, divorce or some other life tragedy that unceremoniously tosses us out of our
comfort zone to fend for ourselves, it can mean being forced to strike out alone which for many of us is the scariest part of all. 当你有很多合作伙伴和⽆尽的资源时,改变就更容易发⽣了。但是,由于这种变化往往是来⾃于⾝边的⼈去世的打击、离婚或是其他的⼀些⼈⽣悲剧,⽽且这些变化⼜毫⽆征兆地将我们赶出了⾃⼰的舒适圈,使我们不得不⾃⼰照顾⾃⼰,所以这样的变化也意味着我们要被迫独⾃⾯对很多事情,这也是很多⼈最害怕的事情。
Probably the most difficult thing about pursuing significant change is doing it when you don’t have the knowledge,financial or emotional tools available to make the process go smoothly.
也许,在进⾏显著改变时遇到的最困难的事情,就是即便对相关知识⼀⽆所知,也缺少财务⽀持或情感⼯具,却还是要顺利完成。
However, as difficult as it can be, sometimes reaching our full potential means working without a net. Or, as TonyRobbins says, \"If you want to take the island, burn the fing boats!\"
然⽽,不管有多难,有时想要达到我们潜能的极限,其实只需在⼯作时摆脱络的束缚。换⾔之,正如托尼• 罗宾斯所说,“如果你想去岛上,就烧了这些该死的船!”
For those truly dedicated to their mission, having fewer resources and no backup or fallback plan can be a surprisingblessing as it forces you to get creative and forge new paths.
⽽对于那些真正致⼒于完成⾃⼰使命的⼈来说,缺少资源、备份或应急计划都会被看作是⼀个意外之礼,因为这促使你变得更具创造⼒,懂得另辟蹊径。
I don’t know if it’s possible to leave this world with zero regrets. Because of the natural life cycles and the fact thatsometimes it’s the tragedy that causes our awakenings we often have our epiphanies too late to avoid certain painfuloutcomes.
我不知道是否有可能在离开这个世界时不留任何遗憾。因为⾃然⽣命周期有限,也只有悲剧结局,才能让我们清醒,这使我们时常顿悟得太晚,以致于⽆法避免那些令⼈痛苦的结局。
However, it is indefensible to can claim ignorance to the possible ramifications of continued inaction. The choice
belongs to each and every one of us. We all have the power to change both our thoughts and behavior thereby giving moreintentional direction to the remainder of our lives.
然⽽,把持续的⽆作为所导致的后果归因为⽆知是站不住脚的。选择权在我们每⼀个⼈⼿中。我们都可以改变⾃⼰的思想和⾏为,去为之后的⽣活确⽴更明确的⽅向。

Both your heart and your mind need a master, and they can find the master in your ego. However, your ego will fill theirrole only if you use self-discipline. In the absence of self-discipline, your mind and heart will fight their battles as they please.In this situation the person within whose mind the fight is carried out often gets badly hurt.
你的感情和理智都需要⼀位主宰,⽽在你的⾃尊⼼⾥就可发现这个主宰,然⽽只有你在发挥你的⾃律精神时,⾃尊⼼才会
扮演好这个⾓⾊,如果没有了⾃律,你的理智和感情便会随⼼所欲地进⾏战争,战争结果当然是你会受到严重的伤害。

At the start of your workday, before you even check your emails, make a plan. Jot down the three most important tasksyou want to accomplish that day. Put a big star next to the most important. Now, before you get into the busy work of emailsand photocopying and tidying your desk, start on that important task and see it through to the end.
在你刚开始⼯作时,趁着还没查看邮件,赶紧定个计划吧。写下当天必须完成的三个最重要的任务,最重要的那个打上标记。然后趁着还没开始检查邮件、影印资料或整理办公桌等⼯作内容前,赶紧着⼿那个最重要的任务并保证完成它。 Surprisingly few people take the time to plan their workday, and end up spinning their wheels on a number of low-prioritytasks without really accomplishing anything big.
奇怪的是,很少有⼈能有计划地⼯作,⼀天下来后还是周旋在⼏个效率甚低的任务上,最后其实什么实事都没做成。
