An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer of his plans to leave the house building business and live a more leisurely life with his wife enjoying his extended family. He would miss the paycheck, but he needed to retire. They could get by.
The employer was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes, but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He resorted to shoddy workmanship and used inferior materials. It was an unfortunate way to end his career.
When the carpenter finished his work and the employer came to inspect the house and handed the front-door key to the carpenter. "This is your house," he said, "my gift to you."
What a shock! What a shame! If he had only known he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently. Now he had to live in the home he had built none too well.
So it is with us. We build our lives in a distracted way, reacting rather than acting, willing to put up less than the best. At important points we do not give the job our best effort. Then with a shock we look at the situation we have created and find that we are now living in the house we have built. If we had realized, we would have done it differently.
Think of yourself as the carpenter. Think about your house. Each day you hammer a nail, place a board, or erect a wall. Build wisely. It is the only life you will ever build. Even if you live it for only one day more, that day deserves to be lived graciously and with dignity. The plaque on the wall says, "Life is a do-it-yourself project." Who could say it more clearly? Your life tomorrow will be the result of your attitudes and the choices you make today.

My dream ended when I was born. Although I never knew it then, I just held on to something that would never come to pass. Dreams really do exist. But in the morning when you wake up, they are remembered just as a dream. That is what happened to me.
I always had the dream to dance like a beautiful ballerina twirling around and around and hearing people applaud for me. When I was young, I would twirl around and around in the fields of wildflowers that grew in my backyard.
I thought that if I twirled faster everything would disappear and I would wake up in a new place. Reality woke me up when I heard a voice saying, "I don't know why you bother trying to dance. Ballerinas are pretty, slender little girls. Besides, you don't have the talent to even be a ballerina." I remember how those words paralyzed every feeling in my body. I fell to the ground and wept for hours.
We lived in the country by a nearby lake. I did not like to be at home. When my parents were home, my mother just yelled and criticized because nothing was ever perfect in her life. She dreamed of a different life but she ended up living in the country far away from the city where she believed her dreams would have come true.
I enjoyed hanging out by the water. I would sit there for hours and stare at my reflection. There I was, looking nothing like a pretty ballerina dancer. Reflections don't lie. Once the waves would come, my reflection was gone. Washed away just like my dream to dance.
As I grew older, I began to realize that the reason my dream was even born, was because it was something that was inside of me. The dream I had was never nurtured and cared for, so it slowly died. It's not that I wanted it to die, but I allowed it to die the day I started listening to the words, "You can't do it." When I finally woke up from many years of dreaming, I realized that you can't settle for dancing in the wildflowers, you have to move on to the platform.

经典英语美文朗诵:The story of life 生命的故事
Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away they were meant to be there , to serve some sort of purpose ,teach you a lesson,or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become.You never know who these people maybe (possibly your roommate , neighbor , coworker , long lost friend , lover , or even a complete stranger),but when you lock eyes with them,you know at that very moment they will affect your life in some profound way .
有时候,一些人进入你的生命,你马上知道他们是注定要出现的,他们的到来是为了达成某种目的,给你提供教益,帮助你认清自己以及自己想要成为怎样的人,你不会知道这些人是谁(很可能会是你的室友、邻居、同事、失散多年的朋友、爱人,甚至是素未谋面的陌生人),可是当你的目光锁定他们的那一刻,你就知道他们会给你的生命带来深远的影响。
And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible , painful. and unfair at first , but in reflection you find that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realized your potential , strength , willpower , or heart.
有时候,发生在你身上的事情看似可怕、痛苦和不公平,但仔细一想,你就会发现,如果不克服这些障碍,你就不会意识到自己的潜能、力量、意志和决心。
Everything happens for a reason.Nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck. Illness , injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small test whatever they may be ,life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless.The people you meet who affect your life ,and the success and downfalls you experience , help to create who you are and who you become.
任何事的发生都是有原因的。没有事情是偶然出现或运气使然。疾病、伤痛、爱情、与成功失之交臂,以及彻彻底底的糊涂犯错,这些都是你对精神极限的考验。无论这些小小的考验是什么,没有了它们,生命就像是一条不知通往何处的平坦大道,纵然安全舒适,但却了然无趣、毫无意义。你所遇到的影响你生命的人,你所经历的成功与失败,都有助于塑造和成就你的人生。
英语美文朗诵
Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact ,they are probably the most poignant and important ones.If someone hurts you , betrays you ,or breaks your heart,forgive them,for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious when you open your heart. If someone loves you ,love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you ,but because in a way , they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things.
即使是不好的经历,也能从中吸取经验。事实上,这些经验可能是最深刻和最重要的。如果有人伤害了你,背叛了你,或伤了你的心,原谅他们把,因为他们帮助你理解了信任,让你懂得了在敞开心扉时保持精神是很重要的。 如果有人爱你,你要无条件地爱他们,不仅因为他们爱你,还因为他们教会了你去爱,以及如何敞开你的心扉、放开你的目光。
Make every day count.Appreciate every moment and take from those moments everything that you possibly can for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people that you have never talked to before, and actually listen.Let yourself fall in love, break free, and set your sights high.Hold your head up because you have every right to.Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don’t believe in yourself , it will be hard for others to believe in you . You can make of your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it with absolutely no regrets.
让每一天都过的有价值。 珍惜生命中的每一刻,并尽你所能地从中取得收获,因为你不会有从头再来的可能。跟那些你从来没有说过话的人交谈,并注意聆听。让自己去爱,挣脱束缚,让目光高远。要昂起头,因为你有权利这么做。 告诉自己,你是一个伟大的人,并相信自己,因为如果你不相信自己,别人就很难相信你。 你可以做任何想做的事来塑造你的人生。 创造你自己的人生,并无怨无悔地去过这一生吧。
Most impotantly,if you LOVE someone, tell him or her ,for you never know what tomorrow may have in store. And learn a lesson in life each day that you live.
最重要的是,如果你爱某个人,就告诉他/她。因为你不知道明天将会怎样。活着的每一天里都要有所收获。
That`s the story of life.
这就是生命的故事。

亨利·戴维·梭罗(Henry David Thoreau,1817-1862),美国作家、哲学家,超验主义代表人物,也是一位废奴主义及自然主义者,有无政府主义倾向,曾任职土地勘测员。
However mean your life is, meet it and live it;do not shun it and call it hard names.
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。
It is not so bad as you are.It looks poorest when you are richest.The fault-finder will find faults in paradise.
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。
Love your life, poor as it is.You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious, honours, even in a poor-house.
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。
The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man's abode;
夕阳反射在济贫院的窗上,像身在富户人家窗上一样光亮;
the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.
在那门前,积雪同样在早春融化。
I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace.
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。
The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.
城镇中的穷人,我看,倒往往是过着最独立不羁的生活。
Maybe they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving.
也许因为他们很伟大,所以受之无愧。
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.
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!
Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends.
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。
Turn the old, return to them.
找旧的,回到那里去。
Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
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。

Marina And The Diamonds - Forget Lyrics/歌词
Sometimes I think I'm not that strong
But there's a force that carries me on
Sick of my small heart, made of steel
Sick of those wounds that never heal
'Cause I have lived my life in debt
I've spent my days in deep regret
Yeah, I've been living in the red
Oh, 'cause I can't forgive and I can't forget
Forget
Forget, forget, forget
Ain't no time to regret
Yeah, it's time to forget
Ever since I can remember
Life was like a tipping scale
Like an abacus I played with
Counting every win and fail
'Cause I have lived my life in debt
I've spent my days in deep regret
Yeah, I've been living in the red
But I wanna forgive and forget
Forget, forget, forget
Ain't no time for regret
Yeah, it's time
To be letting go
Oh baby, you know
What I'm talking about
Got nothing to lose and nothing to prove
Oh baby, I'm bowing out
Yeah, I've been dancing with the devil
I love that he pretends to care
If I'll ever get to heaven
When a million dollars gets you there
Oh, all the time that I have wasted
Chasing rabbits down a hole
When I was born to be the tortoise
I was born to walk alone
Forget about it
Forget about it
Forget about it
Forget, forget, forget
Ain't no time to regret
I'm gonna leave the past behind
I've had enough, I'm breaking free
No pressing stop, erase, rewind
That chain of thought that followed me
I've put my money where my mouth is
For the first time in my life
I've made mistakes, but I believe that
Everything was worth the fight
'Cause in the end, the road is long
But only 'cause it makes you strong
It's filled with peaks and twists and turns
Sometimes you have to learn to forget about it

The Afters - Life is Beautiful
Lyrics:
Through the window
I see you waiting
You are smiling
Cause I'm coming
Your eyes are a story
An ocean of memories
Pictures of faces and places
And all of the things
That make us feel like we have it all
All of the times
That make us realize
We have it all
We have it all
Life is beautiful
Life is beautiful
Living and dying
Laughing or crying
If we have the whole world or have nothing
I know there are long nights
But we'll make it
With every sunrise comes a new light
And all of the things
That make us feel like we have it all
All of the times
That make us realize
We have it all
We have it all
Life is beautiful
Life is beautiful
Life is beautiful
A father's love
A wedding dance
New Year's dreams
A toast with friends
A soldier coming home from war
The faith the hope of so much more
A brand new life, a mother's prayer
Shooting stars, ocean air
A lover's kiss, and hard goodbyes
Fireworks, Christmas lights
These are things that make us feel alive
These are the times that make us realize
Life is beautiful
Life is beautiful
Life is beautiful
These are the times that make us realize

以下是小编整理的情感类英语美文欣赏:The Five Boons of Life, 希望使你的心灵有所触动。
In the morning of life came a good fairy with herbasket,and said:"Here are gifts. Take one, leave theothers,And be wary,choose wisely!For only one ofthem is valuable."
The gifts were five :Fame, Love,Riches,Pleasure,Death.The youth,said,eagerly:"Thereis no need to consider";and he chose Pleasure.
He went out into the world and sought out thepleasures that youth delights in . But each in its turnwas short-liyed and disappointing,vain and empty;and each,departing,mocked him .In the endhe said:"These years i have wasted.If i could but choose again, I would choose wisely."
在生命之初,一位仙女带着篮子走来,对一位年轻人说道:"这里有几份礼物,你可以从中选一份,留下其它的.你要小心,做一个明智的选择;啊,你要明智地进行选择!因为这里面只有一份礼物是珍贵的."
一共有五份礼物:名声,爱情,财富,快乐,还有死亡.年轻人迫不及待地说:"没有必要多想."他选了快乐.
此后他就开始步入世界,追逐年轻人所喜爱的快乐.然而每一种快乐都是如此短暂,令人感到空虚和失望.每当一种快乐弃他而去时,还要把他嘲弄一番.最后,年轻人感叹道"这些年我都浪费了.如果我可以再选一次,我一定会做一个明智的选择."
2
The fairy appeared,and said:"Four of the gifts remain.choose once more:and oh,remember--time is flying,and only one of them is precious."
The man considered long,then chose Love;and did not mark the tears that rose in the fairy'seyes.
After many,many years the man sat by a coffin,in an empty home.And he communed withhimself,saying:"One by one they have gone away and leftme;and now she lies here,the dearestand the last.Desolation after desolation has swept over me;but each hour of happiness thetreacherous trader,Love,sold me i have paid a thousand hours ofo grief!Out of my heart ofhearts i curse him!"
这时仙女又出现了,她说:"这里还有四份礼物.再选一次吧.噢,记住时间飞逝,而其中只有一件是珍贵的."
他思考了很久,最终选择了爱情;他没有注意到仙女眼里泛起的泪光.许多许多年之后,这个人坐在一口棺材旁边,屋子里空荡荡的.他自言自语道:"他们一个一个地走了,只剩下我.现在,她就躺在这儿,我最亲爱的人儿,我最后的亲人.孤独一次又一次把我包围.都是因为爱情这个阴狡诈的商人,他出售给我的每个甜蜜的小时,我现在都要用数千个小时的悲伤来偿还!我从心底里诅咒他!"
3
"Choose again."It was the fairy speaking."The years have you wisdow-surely it must beso.There gifts remain.Only one of them has anyworth-remember it ,and choose warily."
The man reflected long,then chose Fame;and the fairy,sighing,went her way.
Years went by and she came again,and stood behind the man where he sat solitary in thefading day,thinking.And she knew his thought:"My name filled the world,and its praiss were onevery tongue,and it seemed well with me for a littlewhile.How little a while it was!Then cameenvy;then detraction;then hate;then persecution.Then derision,which is the begining of theend.And last of all came pity,which is the funeral of fame.Oh ,the bitterness and misery ofrenown!"
"你在选一次吧."仙女又一次说话了.
"这些年已经教予你智慧--也理当如此.这里还有三份礼物,其中只有一份是有价值的--切记,你好好挑吧."
他想了很久,然而选择了名声.仙女叹了口气,径自离开了.岁月流转,仙女又回来了,站到他的身旁.已迈入迟暮之年的他孑然一身,心情重重.他在想些什么,她都了然于心.
"我的名字传遍世界,每个人都争相赞颂,有一阵子好像让我心满足.可那是多么短暂的一阵子啊!随之而来的是妒忌;然后是诋毁;然后是憎恶;然后是迫害.之后是嘲讽,从些一切开始步入完结.最后便是怜悯,这也是我的名声的葬礼.啊,名声原来是这般苦涩和痛苦!"
4
"Choose yet again."It was the fairy's voice. "Two gifts remain.And do not despair .In thebegining there was but one that was precious,and it is still here.
"Wealth-which is power!How blind i was!"said the man."Now,at last,life will be worth the living.Iwill spend.squander.These mockers and despisers will crawl in the dirt before me,and i will feedmy hungry heart with their envy,I will have all luxuries,all joys,all enchant-times of the spirit Iwill buy,buy,buy!I have lost much time,and chosen badly heretofore,but let that pass;I wasignorant then,and could but take for best what seemed so."
Three short years went by,and a day came when the man sat shivering in a mean garret;and hewas gaunt and wan and hollow-eyed,and clothed in rags;and he was gnawing a dry crust andmumbling:"Curse all the world's gifts for mockeries and gilded lies!And miscalled,every one,Theyare not gifts,but merely lendings.Pleasure.Love,Fame.Riches:they are but temporary disguisesfor lasting realities-Pain,Grief,Shame,Poverty.The fairy said true;in all her store there was butone gift which was precious,only one that was not valueless,How poor and cheap and mean iknow those others now to be,Bring it!I am weary.I would rest."
"不过你还可以重新现挑一次."仙女的声音再度响起.
"还剩下两份礼物.不要灰心丧气,从一开始就只有一份是宝贵的,而现在它还在那里啊."
"财富--财富就是力量!我过去多盲目啊!"他说."现在,终于,我的生命将要变得有意义.我要纵情欢度此生,我要挥霍我的人生.那些对我冷嘲热讽,轻蔑诋毁我的人将要在我面前的泥土里挣扎,而我空乏的心也将因为他们的妒忌而得到满足.我将要享尽荣华富贵,所有欢乐和所有销魂的时光.我要买,买!以前我做错了选择,失去了许多时间,就让它过去吧;当时我很无知,我只能选我觉得最好的东西.
短短的三年又过去了.到了这么一天,这个人蜷缩在一个简陋的小阁楼里,古瘦如柴,苍白无力,双眼深陷,身上裹着碎布衣衫,浑身颤抖不停.他一边啃着一块干面包皮,一边咕哝着:"该死的礼物,都是为了让我受人嘲笑和欺诈!每一样都叫错了!它们都不是礼物,根本只是租借品!快乐,爱情,名声还有财富-都只不过是长久现实的暂时伪装-它们其实是永远的痛苦,悲哀,耻辱和贫穷!那个仙女说的没错啊,她所有的东西里只有一样是珍贵的,只有那么一样不是毫无价值的.我现在才明白,其它礼物是多么低贱与卑劣!把它带来吧-那真正宝贵的礼物!我累了,我想休息了.
5
The fairy came,bringing again four of the gifts,but Death was wanting.She said:"I gave it to amother's pet, a little child.It was ignorant,but trusted me,asking me to choose for it.You didnot ask me to choose."
"Oh,miserable me!What is left for me ?"
"What not even you have deserved:the wantoninsult of Old Age."
仙女出现了,带着以前的那四件礼物,但惟独没有最后那一件-死亡.她说道:"我把它给了一位母亲的宠儿子:一个小孩子.他什么也不懂,但他相信我,让我来帮他挑选.而你并没有这么做."
"啊,我多可悲啊!那还剩下什么给我呢?"
"一件你也不配得到的东西:接受年老体衰的折磨.

As the brief introduction to this blog says, life couldbe poor and life could be lonely, but what we couldnever lose is the elegant heart towards life.
Everyone is busy these days. They are always drivenby their lives, buterehwis their destination?Something important is gradually cast awaycarelessly and some begin to complain of theboring mechanic life with no vitality with nothingnew. Actually we are the producers of our lives.Whether poor or lonely, we can live our liveselegantly.
Pay more attention to what we are really interested in and do it. Call our friends and family fordaily greetings. Occasionally go out for a walk and a climb and do some sports. Occasionally dinein a quiet clean and elaborately arranged restrourrant with our best friends and have a casualchat with them in a cafe whenever we have the mood. Arrange our room in a tidy way andsometimes changepuorgof daily articles, and buy our vase a bunch of flowers. Spend oneafternoon reading our favorite magazines without doing anything else.
Surely we are busy, but don't let the busy life destroy our own time. We should try to live forourselves like humanbeings but not machines.

Actually, no rule of the game states you must do anything. Instead of picking up and using the pen, you could leave it on a shelf or in a drawer where it will dry up, unused.

然而,如果你真的决定使用,你会做什么?怎么来做这个游戏?

会不会提笔在手,迫不及待地投入其中,任由手中的笔、笔下的字带着你在词海中上下翻腾、左突右冲?
Would you write cautiously and carefully, as if the pen might run dry the next moment, or would you pretend or believe (or pretend to believe) that the pen will write forever and proceed accord gly?

And of what would you write: Of love? Hate? Fun? Misery? Life? Death? Nothing Everything?
你会写些什么?爱情?仇恨?乐趣?痛苦?生命?死亡?虚无空空抑或世事万种?

The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any. Maybe 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.
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。
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.
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。
Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
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。

不要让任何人偷走你的梦想。无论怎样都要跟随你自己的心。下面是读文网小编为大家整理的双语美文欣赏:Keep Your Dream,希望大家喜欢!
I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch. He has let me use his house to put on fund-raising events. The last time I was there he introduced me by saying: “I want to tell you a story. It all goes back to a story about a young man who was the son of an itinerant horse trainer who would go from stable to stable, race track to race track, farm to farm and ranch to ranch, training horses. As a result, the boy’s high school career was continually interrupted. When he was a senior, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.
“That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of someday owning a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream in great detail and he even drew a diagram of a 200-acre ranch, showing the location of all the buildings, the stables and the track. Then he drew a detailed floor plan for a 4,000-square-foot house that would sit on a 200-acre dream ranch.
“He put a great deal of his heart into the project and the next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a note that read, ‘See me after class.’
“The boy with the dream went to see the teacher after class and asked, ‘Why did I receive an F?’ The teacher said, ‘This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you. You have no money. You come from an itinerant family. You have no resources . Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for the original breeding stock and later you’ll have to pay large stud fees . There’s no way you could ever do it.’ Then the teacher added, ‘If you will rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade.’
“The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, ‘Look, son, you have to make up your own mind on this. However, I think it is a very important decision for you.’ Finally, after a week, the boy turned in the same paper, making no changes at all. He stated, ‘You can keep the F and I’ll keep my dream.’ ”
Monty then turned to the assembled group and said, “I tell you this story because you are sitting in my 4,000-square-foot house in the middle of my 200-acre horse ranch. I still have that school paper framed over the fireplace.” He added, “The best part of the story is that two years ago that same schoolteacher brought 30 kids to camp out on my ranch for a week. When the teacher was leaving, he said, ‘Look, Monty, I can tell you this now. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream stealer. During those years I stole a lot of kids’ dreams. Fortunately you had enough gumption not to give up on yours.’ ”
“Don’t let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what,” Monty at last concluded.
美文翻译:
我有一个朋友叫蒙蒂•罗伯茨,他拥有一座养马场。他让我用他的房子作为举办筹集基金活动的地点。上次我在他那儿时,他跟我说:“我想给你讲一个故事。这要追溯到一个年轻人身上发生的故事,他是一位巡回驯马师的儿子,他的驯马师父亲从马厩到赛马场,从农庄到牧场,负责训练那里的马匹。结果,这个男孩的中学生涯就不断地被中断。当他成为一名高年级学生的时候,老师要求他写一篇文章,内容有关他长大后想成为什么人以及想做些什么。
“那天夜里,他写了长达七页的文章,描述了自己将来有一天能拥有一座养马场的目标。他极其详细地介绍了自己的这个梦想,甚至还画出了一幅200英亩牧场的示意图,在上面标出所有建筑、马厩和跑道的具体位置。然后他又画了一幅面积达4,000平方英尺的房屋平面图,这栋房子会坐落在200英亩的梦想牧场上。
“他在这个项目上投入了很多心血,第二天,他把文章交给了老师。两天后,他收到了自己的文章。在第一页上,有一个大大的红色F,并带有一条批注:‘课后来见我。’
“这个怀揣梦想的男孩课后去见那位老师,他问:‘为什么我得了一个F?’老师回答说:‘对于像你这样的小男孩来说,这是一个不切实际的梦想。你没钱。你出身于一个居无定所的家庭。你也没什么才智谋略。要拥有一座养马场需要很多钱。你得买地。你还得为原有的种畜付钱,之后,你将要支付大笔的种马费。你是永远也无法做到的。’随后,老师又补充道:‘如果你针对一个更为实际的目标重写这篇文章的话,我会重新考虑你的成绩的。’
“这个男孩回家苦苦思索了很久,他问自己的父亲他该做些什么。父亲回答说:‘哎,儿子,你必须要在这件事上自己下定决心。不过,我认为这对你来说是一个非常重要的决定。’最终,男孩在一周后交上了同样一篇文章,他根本没做任何更改。他表明:‘你可以保留这个F,而我将继续怀有我的这个梦想。’”
然后,蒙蒂转向聚集的人群说:“我告诉你们这个故事,是因为你们目前正坐在我4,000平方英尺的房子里,它就坐落在我这200英亩的养马场中心。我依然留着那份学校论文,把它装在镜框里,挂在壁炉的上方。”他补充道:“这个故事里最精彩的部分是,就在两年前,同一位老师带着30个孩子在我的牧场上露营了一周的时间。当那位老师离开时,他说:‘喂,蒙蒂,我现在可以对你说这些了,当我做你老师的时候,我其实有点儿像一个偷梦人。在那些岁月里,我偷走了很多孩子的梦想。但幸运的是,你有足够的魄力,没有放弃自己的梦想。’”
“不要让任何人偷走你的梦想。无论怎样都要跟随你自己的心,”蒙蒂最后总结道。

当生命想与你的心灵窃窃私语时,若你没有时间,你有两种选择:倾听你心灵的声音或让砖头来砸你!下面是读文网小编为大家整理的双语美文欣赏:Life throws a brick at your head,希望大家喜欢!
A young and successful executive was traveling down a neighborhood street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar. He was watching for kids darting out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something.
一位年轻的总裁,以有点快的车速,开着他的新Jaguar经过住宅区的巷道。他必须小心游戏中的孩子突然跑到路中央,所以当他觉得小孩子快跑出来时,就要减慢车速。
As his car passed, one child appeared, and a brick smashed into the Jag's side door. He slammed on the brakes and spun the Jag back to the spot from where the brick had been thrown.
就在他的车经过一群小朋友的时候,一个小朋友丢了一块砖头打到了他的车门,他很生气的踩了煞车并后退到砖头丢出来的地方。
He jumped out of the car, grabbed some kid and pushed him up against a parked car, shouting, "What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are you doing?"Building up a head of steam, he went on"That's a new car and that brick you threw is gonna cost a lot of money. Why did you do it?"
他跳出车外,抓了那个小孩,把他顶在车门上说:“你为什么这样做,你知道你刚刚做了什么吗?” 接着又吼道:“你知不知道你要赔多少钱来修理这台新车,你到底为什么要这样做?”
“Please, mister, please, I'm sorry. I didn't know what else to do!”pleaded the youngster." It's my brother," he said. "He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up.
小孩子求着说:“先生,对不起,我不知道我还能怎么办?”他接着说:“因为我哥哥从轮椅上掉下来,我没办法把他抬回去。”
Sobbing, the boy asked the executive, "Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me."
那男孩啜泣着说:“你可以帮我把他抬回去吗?他受伤了,而且他太重了我抱不动。”
Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat. He lifted the young man back into the wheelchair and took out his handkerchief and wiped the scrapes and cuts, checking to see that everything was going to be okay.
这些话让这位年轻的总裁深受感动,他抱起男孩受伤的哥哥,帮他坐回轮椅上。并拿出手帕擦拭他哥哥的伤口,以确定他哥哥没有什么大问题。
"Thank you, sir. And God bless you," the grateful child said to him. The man then watched the little boy push his brother to the sidewalk toward their home.
那个小男孩感激地说:“谢谢你,先生,上帝保佑你。” 然后他看着男孩推着他哥哥回去。
It was a long walk backs to his Jaguar... a long, slow walk. He never did repair the side door. He kept the dent to remind him not to go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention.
年轻总裁返回Jaguar的路变的很漫长,他也没有修他汽车的侧门。他保留着车上的凹痕就是提醒自己。生活的道路不要走的太匆忙,否则需要其他人敲打自己来注意生活的真谛。
Life whispers in your soul and speaks to your heart. Sometimes,when you don't have the time to listen,it's your choice: Listen to the whispers of your soul or wait for the brick!
当生命想与你的心灵窃窃私语时,若你没有时间,你有两种选择:倾听你心灵的声音或让砖头来砸你!
Do you sometimes ignore loved ones because your life is too fast and busy leaving them to wonder whether you really love them?
请问你是否曾因为生活太快、太忙碌而忽略了你所爱的人,然后让他们开始开始怀疑起你是不是真的爱他们呢?
