Rules of life 生活的原則
Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling five balls in the air. You name them: work, family, health, friends, and spirit, and you're keeping all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls--family, health, friends, and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged, or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life.巴士英語www.xiao84.com
想象下,人生就好比是你在玩游戲時當空飄起的的五個球兒.它們依次叫做:工作、家庭、健康、友誼、心靈，你把它們都放飛在空中。很快地，你就會發(fā)現(xiàn)“工作”是個彈力球兒。就算你松開手不去管它，它還會是會再次跳起來。但是其他的那四個球兒——家庭、健康、友誼、和心靈是玻璃般制成的。如果你丟下它們中的任何一個，它注定就會劃傷了、有擦痕了、被弄壞了，甚至裂成碎片了。不可能再完好如初了。因此，你必須了解這點，并為掌握它們之間的分配與平衡努力。
How?
怎樣做到這一點呢?
Don t undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others.Itis because we are different that each of us is special.
不要總拿自己與別人比從而貶低自身的價值。正因為我們彼此的差異不同，我們才會各有千秋。
Don t set your goals by what other people deem important. Onlyyouknow what is best for you.
別人認為重要，并不能作為你確定目標的根據(jù)。只有你自己知道，什么東西對你最好。
Don t take for granted the things closest to your heart. Clingtothem as you would cling to your life, for without them, lifeismeaningless.
與你內心最貼近的東西，切莫等閑視之。要像堅守生命一樣堅守住它們，因為失去它們，生活就會毫無意義。
Don t let your life slip through your fingers by living inthepast or for the future. By living your life one day at a time,youlive ALL the days of your life.
不要耽于過去或未來，而讓生命從指間悄悄溜走。一次只活一天，活在今日，你就充實地活過生命中的每一天。如果你還可以付出，就不要輕言放棄。
Don t give up when you still have something to give. Nothingisreally over until the moment you stop trying.
在你停止努力那一刻之前，什么都沒有真正結束。
Don t be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. Itisthis fragile thread that binds us each together
正因為我們都不完美，我們才會彼此需要。.
Don t be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chancesthatwe learn how to be brave.
不要害怕遭遇風險。只有通過冒險，我們才能學會如何變得勇敢。
Don t shut love out of your life by saying it s impossibletofind. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastestwayto lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way tokeeplove is to give it wings.
別說真愛難求，而將愛拒之門于生活之外。獲得愛的捷徑是給予愛，失去愛的捷徑是扼住愛，而守住愛的捷徑是給愛插上翅膀。
Don t run through life so fast that you forget not only whereyouve been, but also where you are going.
不要一生奔忙，匆匆而過，以至于忘了自己從何而來，往何而去。
Don't forget that a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated. Don't use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved. Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.
不要忘了每個人最強的感情需求就是別人的認同和支持.與人交談或者安排時間時要多多用心.因為“一言既出，駟馬難追”.人生不是一場競賽,而是一次旅途,好好享受你路上的每一處風景吧.
Yesterday is a history,tomorrow is a mystery,only today is a gift,that is why we call it present.
昨天屬于歷史。明天是未知的謎。而今天是賜予我們的禮物：所以我們把“今天”稱之為present。

Life inspiring 生活的啟示
A daughter complained to her father about her life and how things were so hard for her, She did not know she was going to make it and want to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved a new one arose.巴士英語www.xiao84.com
有一個女孩向她父親抱怨她的生活，她覺得凡事都很艱難，不知該怎樣挺過去，想放棄。她厭倦了不斷的抗爭和奮斗，似乎一個問題剛剛解決，另一個問題馬上呈現(xiàn)。
Her father, a cook, took her to the kitchen, He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire .Soon the pots came to a boil. In one he placed carrots, in the second he placed eggs, and in the last he placed ground coffee beans. He led them sit and boil, without saying a word.
她的父親是個廚師，他把她帶到了廚房。他在三個壺里分別裝滿了水，然后放到高溫的火上燒。很快，壺里的水被煮開了。他往第一個壺里放了些胡蘿卜，往第二個壺里放了幾個雞蛋，在最后一個壺里放了些磨碎的咖啡豆，然后，一句話也沒說，他由著水把它們煮沸。
The daughter sucked her teeth and impatiently waited, wondering what he was doing. In about twenty minutes he turned off the burners, He fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl. He pulled the eggs out and placed them a bowl. Then he ladled the coffee out and placed it in a mug. Turning to her he asked," Darling, what do you see?"
女兒咂巴著牙齒發(fā)出聲響，不耐煩地等著，對父親的行為感到很納悶。大約二十分鐘后，父親關掉了火爐，把胡蘿卜撈出來，放到一個碗里。又把雞蛋揀出來放進另一個碗里，接著把咖啡用勺子舀出來倒進一個杯子里，然后轉過頭來，對她說，“親愛的，你看到的是什么?”
"Carrots, eggs, and coffee." she replied.
“胡蘿卜、雞蛋和咖啡。”她答道。
He brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots, she did and noted that they were soft .He then asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg. Finally, he asked her to sip the coffee .She smiled, as she tasted its rich aroma.
父親把她帶近了這些東西，要她去摸胡蘿卜，她摸了之后，注意到，它們變柔軟了。然后，他又要她去拿一個雞蛋并把它敲破，在把殼剝掉之后，她觀察了這個煮熟的雞蛋。最后，父親要她飲一口咖啡。嘗著芳香四溢的咖啡，她微笑起來。
"What does it mean, Father?" she humbly asked.
“這是什么意思，父親?”她謙遜地問道。
He explained that each of them had faced the same adversity, boiling water, but each reacted differently. The carrot went in strong, hard, and unrelenting. But after being subjected to the boiling water, it softened and weak. The egg had being fragile. Its thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior, but after sitting through the boiling water. its inside became hardened ,The ground coffee beans were unique ,however ,After they were in the boiling water ,they had changed the water .
父親解釋說，這三樣東西面臨著同樣的逆境——煮沸的水。但它們的反應卻各不相同。胡蘿卜本是硬的，堅固而且強度大，但受到煮沸的水的影響后，它變得柔軟而脆弱。雞蛋本來易碎，薄薄的外殼保護著內部的液體。但是在經歷過煮沸的水以后，它的內部卻變得堅硬。不過，最獨特的卻是磨碎的咖啡豆，當它們被放入煮沸的水之后，它們卻改變了水。
"Which are you?" he asked his daughter.
“哪一個是你呢?”他問女兒。
When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?
當逆境找上你時，你該如何應對呢? 你是胡蘿卜、雞蛋，還是咖啡豆?

Industry significance 勤勞的意義
The significant inscription found on an old key "If I rest, I rust" would be an excellent motto for those who are afflicted with the slightest taint of idleness. Even the most industrious might adopt it with advantage to serve as a reminder that, if one allows his faculties to rest, like the iron in the unused key, they will soon show signs of rust and, ultimately, cannot do the work required of them.www.xiao84.com
在一把舊鑰匙上發(fā)現(xiàn)了一則意義深遠的銘文——如果我休息，我就會生銹。對于那些懶散而煩惱的人來說，這將是至理名言。甚至最為勤勉的人也以此作為警示：如果一個人有才能而不用，就像廢棄鑰匙上的鐵一樣，這些才能就會很快生銹，并最終無法完成安排給自己的工作。
Those who would attain the heights reached and kept by great men must keep their faculties polished by constant use, so that they may unlock the doors of knowledge, the gate that guard the entrances to the professions, to science, art, literature, agriculture --- every department of human endeavor.
有些人想取得偉人所獲得并保持的成就，他們就必須不斷運用自身才能，
以便開啟知識的大門，即那些通往人類努力探求的各個領域的大門，這些領域包括各種職業(yè)：科學，藝術，文學，農業(yè)等。
Industry keeps bright the key that opens the treasury of achievement. If Hugh Miller, after toiling all day in a quarry, had devoted his evenings to rest and recreation, he would never have become a famous geologist. The celebrated mathematician, Edmund Stone, would never have published a mathematical dictionary, never have found the key to science of mathematics, if he had given his spare moments to idleness. Had the little Scotch lad, Ferguson, allowed the busy brain to go to sleep while he tended sheep on the hillside instead of calculating the position of the stars by a string of beads, he would never have become a famous astronomer.
勤奮使開啟成功寶庫的鑰匙保持光亮。如果休米勒在采石場勞作一天后，晚上的時光用來休息消遣的話，他就不會成為名垂青史的地質學家。著名數(shù)學家愛德蒙斯通如果閑暇時無所事事，就不會出版數(shù)學詞典，也不會發(fā)現(xiàn)開啟數(shù)學之門的鑰匙。如果蘇格蘭青年弗格森在山坡上放羊時，讓他那思維活躍的大腦處于休息狀態(tài)，而不是借助一串珠子計算星星的位置，他就不會成為著名的天文學家。
Labor vanquishes all --- not inconstant, spasmodic, or ill-directed labor, but faithful, unremitting, daily effort toward a well-directed purpose. Just as truly as eternal vigilance is the price of liberty, so is eternal industry the price of noble and enduring success.
勞動征服一切。這里所指的勞動不是斷斷續(xù)續(xù)的，間歇性的或方向偏差的勞動，而是堅定的，不懈的，方向正確的每日勞動。正如要想擁有自由就要時刻保持警惕一樣，要想取得偉大的，持久的成功，就必須堅持不懈地努力。
