青春的励志美文摘抄一:Fixing Up the Run-Down Places
by Dr. David Dallas Jones
Every life coheres around certain fundamental core ideas whether we realize it or not. If I were asked to state the ideas around which my life and my life's work have been built it would seem that they were very simple ideas. An old professor of mine used to say that "effort counts." "The surest thing in the world," he would say, "next to death is that effort counts." This I believe with all my heart. We seldom realize the sense of glow, the sense of growing self-esteem, the sense of achievement, which can come from doing a job well. Just working at a thing with enthusiasm and with a belief that the job may be accomplished, however uncertain the outcome, lends zest to life.
If I were to start life again, I think I would do just what I have done in the past-this past having been done by mere chance. I would start at some task which very much needed to be done. I would start in a place which was run down and I would believe with all my heart that if the thing needed to be done and if effort were put into it, results would come for human good.
Too, from the outset, my wife and I have had the feeling that no matter what else we did in life, we had to devote our best thinking and our best living to our children. Now that they are all grown, we have sincere satisfaction in the fact that trying to do a job and trying to earn a living did not take away from us this urgency to be and do so that our children could have a feeling of the importance of integrity, honesty and straightforwardness in life. It seems to me far too often this is overlooked. We people in public life do the jobs we have to do and fail to save our own children. This second thing is important- doing the task you have to do but beginning at home to bring peace, love, happiness and contentment to those whom God has given you.
The third idea, around which I have tried to live and work, is that there is an overshadowing Providence that cares for one. Ofttimes struggles are too intense, too "eager beaverish" when, as a matter of fact, time and God can solve many problems. Never in my life have I gotten away from the idea that God cares and that He provides that the forces of good in the world are greater than the forces of evil and that if we will lend ourselves to those forces, in the long run we have greater joy and happiness in the thing which we try to achieve. This I learned from my mother as a boy. Although she was ill and although we were poor-as poor as people can be-I do not now recall a moment of discouragement in her presence. There was always an overpowering belief that God was in His heaven and that, as Joe Louis said, "God is on our side."
These things I believe with all my heart.
修补破损之处
大卫•达拉斯•琼斯博士
无论我们能否认识到这点,每个人的人生都与某种基础的核心思想密切相连。倘若有人问我,我的生命与工作基于何 种观念?我觉得它们非常简单。“一分耕耘,一分收获。”这是我的一位老教授过去常说的话。他说:“除了死亡之外,世界上最确切的事就是‘一分耕耘,一分收 获’。”我对此深信不疑。我们很少能意识到工作带给我们的乐趣,对我们自尊心的培养,以及给予我们的成就感。只要带着热情去做一件事情,并坚信一定可以完 成,无论最终会有怎样的结果,它都会为我们的生活带来激情。
如果再给我一次生命,我想我仍会做过去所做的事——虽然过去所做的一切纯属偶然。我会从急需去做的事情做起,从破损之处做起;我会由衷地相信,只要是必须做的事,只要付出努力,就一定会获得对人类有益的结果。
并 且,我和妻子从一开始就认为,无论生活中还有任何什么别的事等待我们去做,我们都必须全身心地为孩子们提供最好的生活。如今,他们都已长大成人。我们感到 无比满足,我们为生计奔波,努力工作,但都不曾忽略孩子,这样孩子们才能真正明白生活中正直、诚实和坦率的重要性。而我觉得,人们通常都忽略了这些。为了 在社会中生存,人们不得不去工作,于是忽略了自己的孩子。然而,后者更为重要——做你必须做的事,但先要把和平、爱心、幸福和满足感带给家中的那些上帝恩 赐予你的孩子们。
上天始终眷顾着我,这是维系我的生活与工作的第三个观念。有时,我们会过于积极,过于“急功近利”,而事实上,上帝和时间 会解决很多问题。上帝眷顾着我们,他让我们懂得世界上善的力量总大于恶的力量,只要我们追随着善,就一定会从我们努力成就的事业中获得更多的快乐与幸福, 这正是我在一生中都不曾背离的一种观念。它们是我儿时从母亲那里学到的。虽然母亲染病在身,虽然我们的生活一贫如洗,但是在我的记忆中,母亲从未有过一刻 的气馁。她始终坚信,正如乔?路易斯所说:“上帝与我们同在。”上帝就在天堂。
对于这些观念,我是由衷地相信的。
青春的励志美文摘抄二:The Soundest Investment of All
by C. Jared Ingersoll
I feel very presumptuous and uncomfortable about trying to explain out loud the things I believe in. But I do think that all human problems are in some way related to each other, so perhaps if people compare their experiences they may discover something in common in hunting the answers.
I am a very fortunate man for I lead a full and what is for me a happy life. I say this even though I happen to have had, in the course of it, a couple of severe personal blows. My first wife collapsed and died one day while she and I were ice skating, after eighteen years of a most happy existence together. My only son, a sergeant in the army combat engineers, was killed in Italy in the last war. Nevertheless, these tragedies did not throw me completely and I have been able to fill my life anew with happiness.
I do not mean to sound calloused. Those blows hurt me deeply. I guess that two basically important things helped me most to recover. One is the fact that I have come to see life as a gamble. The other is a belief in what some people call the hereafter. I try to live fully so that when and if my luck changes there will be little room for regret or recrimination over time lost or misspent. My belief in the hereafter is wrapped in the intangible but stubborn thoughts of a layman. Very likely I would get lost in trying to describe or defend, by cold logic, my belief in God but nobody could argue me out of it.
I have come to believe that I owe life as much as it owes me, and I suppose that explains this fine satisfaction I get out of endeavoring to do a job to the best of what ability I have, and out of helping somebody else.
As a kid I used to ride a rake in the hayfields. I got a tremendous kick out of trying to sweep every field clean as a whistle. Here I made a surprising and happy discovery: that there could be actual enjoyment in the exercise of thoroughness and responsibility, and that duty didn’t have to be a drudge.
I don’t know exactly why, but I like to do things for other people. Not only family responsibilities, work on a hospital board, and various church organizations but also the most inconsequential things that might hardly seem worth the time. My office happens to be on Independence Square and now and then I have occasion to direct a tourist to the Liberty Bell or fill him in on a little of the history of Philadelphia. The tourist doesn’t seem to mind and it makes me feel good. I’m afraid I’m not very profound. I have tried to comprehend why something so simple and so sound as the Golden Rule is so often forgotten or held in disrepute. I can only say—and I say this quite selfishly—that I have found it a good investment. It has paid me a very high return, undoubtedly more than I deserve.
最成功的投资
C.贾里德•英格索尔
我想,若是大声解释我的信仰,不仅会给人一种自大的感觉,也会使我感到不安。但是我认为,从某种程度上来说,人类所有的问题都是息息相关的。因此,倘若人们比较一下他们的经历,也许就能在寻找答案的过程中发现某些共同之处。
我 是一个幸运的人,因为我的生活充实而幸福。不管怎样,我依然会这么说,即使曾经的多次不幸给我带来了沉重的打击。我与第一个妻子共同度过了18年幸福的婚 姻生活,然而在我们去滑冰的那天,她突然倒下,撒手人寰。我唯一的儿子是一名工兵军士,二战期间,在意大利阵亡。然而,我并没有被这些不幸彻底打倒,而是 再次让我的生活充满幸福。
我并不想让大家觉得我冷酷无情。这些不幸确实对我造成了很大的伤害。我想我之所以能够重新振作起来,其中有两个重 要的原因:一是我认为生活其实就是一场赌博,二是我对人们所说的来世深信不疑。为了在晦运时,不至于因虚度时光而后悔或自责,我努力让自己充实地生活。作 为一个普通信徒,无形而坚定的思想正是我信仰来世的来源。我信仰上帝,也许我难以用冷冰冰的逻辑来描述这个信仰或为它辩护,但谁也无法说服我放弃它。
我相信,我对生活付出多少,就会得到多少。因此,我认为,我最大的满足正是来源于尽自己最大的努力去做一份工作或是帮助别人。
孩提时,我常会在干草地上开耙草机。在将每片草地耙干净的过程中,我总会获得极大的成就感,并惊奇地发现:尽心尽责地完成一件事会为你带来真正的快乐,而尽责也并不一定是做苦工。
我 很喜欢为人们服务。我不仅为家庭负责,在一家医院的理事会及各种教会组织中工作,我还会去做一些看似浪费时间的最无关紧要的琐事。我的办公室正好在独立广 场旁边,因此我偶尔会为去独立钟的游客带路,一路上给他们讲一些费城的历史。虽然游客并不在乎这些,但我却乐此不疲。我自己并非知识渊博之人。我常常想弄 明白,像黄金定律那样简单而合理的箴言为何总被人们遗忘或不屑一顾。我只能说,也自私地说,我发现为人们服务是一项最成功的投资。毫无疑问,它给予我的回 报远远高于我的应得。
青春的励志美文摘抄三:The Light of a Bright Day
By Helen Keller
I choose for my subject faith wrought into life, apart from creed or dogma. By faith I mean a vision of good one cherishes and the enthusiasm that pushes one to seek its fulfillment regardless of obstacles. Faith is a dynamic power that breaks the chain of routine and gives a new, fine turn to old commonplaces. Faith reinvigorates the will, enriches the affections and awakens a sense of creativeness.
Active faith knows no fear, and it is a safeguard to me against cynicism and despair. After all, faith is not one thing or two or three things; it is an indivisible totality of beliefs that inspire me. Belief in God as infinite good will and all-seeing Wisdom whose everlasting arms sustain me walking on the sea of life. Trust in my fellow men, wonder at their fundamental goodness and confidence that after this night of sorrow and oppression they will rise up strong and beautiful in the glory of morning. Reverence for the beauty an preciousness of the earth, and a sense of responsibility to do what I can to make it a habitation of health and plenty for all men. Faith in immortality because it renders less bitter the separation from those I have loved and lost, and because it will free me from unnatural limitations and unfold still more faculties I have in joyous activity. Even if my vital spark should be blown out, I believe that I should behave with courageous dignity in the presence of fate and strive to be a worthy companion of the beautiful, the good, and the True. But fate has its master in the faith of those who surmount it, and limitation has its limits for those who, thought disillusioned, live greatly. True faith is not a fruit of security, it is the ability to blend mortal fragility with the inner strength of the spirit. It does not shift with the changing shades of one's thought.
It was a terrible blow to my faith when I learned that millions of my fellow creatures must labor all their days for food and shelter, bear the most crushing burdens and die without having known the joy of living. My security vanished forever, and I have never regained the radiant belief of my young years that earth is a happy home and hearth for the majority of mankind. But faith is a state of mind. The believer is not soon disheartened. If he is turned out of his shelter, he builds up a house that the winds of the earth cannot destroy.
When I think of the suffering and famine, and the continued slaughter of men, my spirit bleeds, but the thought comes to me that, like the little deaf, dumb and blind child I once was, mankind is growing out of the darkness of ignorance and hate into the light of a brighter day.
青春的励志美文摘抄四
youth
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing appetite for what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart, there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, courage and power from man and from the infinite, so long as you are young.
When your aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you’ve grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there’s hope you may die young at 80.
译文:
青春
青春不是年华,而是心境;青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝,而是深沉的意志,恢宏的想象,炙热的恋情;青春是生命的深泉在涌流。
青春气贯长虹,勇锐盖过怯弱,进取压倒苟安。如此锐气,二十后生而有之,六旬男子则更多见。年岁有加,并非垂老,理想丢弃,方堕暮年。
岁月悠悠,衰微只及肌肤;热忱抛却,颓废必致灵魂。忧烦,惶恐,丧失自信,定使心灵扭曲,意气如灰。
无论年届花甲,拟或二八芳龄,心中皆有生命之欢乐,奇迹之诱惑,孩童般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一台天线,只要你从天上人间接受美好、希望、欢乐、勇气和力量的信号,你就青春永驻,风华常存。 、
一旦天线下降,锐气便被冰雪覆盖,玩世不恭、自暴自弃油然而生,即使年方二十,实已垂垂老矣;然则只要树起天线,捕捉乐观信号,你就有望在八十高龄告别尘寰时仍觉年轻。
