什么是幸福英文演讲稿

What is happiness?

I believe that most of us had been “questioned” by our parents or relatives basically abou t “how much do you earn a month” or “have you gotten promoted”. But few of them care about that if we are living a happy life.

Concerning such phenomenon, a question comes to my mind: what is happiness?

As American president Franklin Roosevelt said,“ People are happy only because they think they are.”

Different kinds of people enjoy different kinds of happiness. To the chairman, nation’s harmony and prosperity is happiness. To retailers, selling more goods and having more customers is happiness. To the police, getting guilt punished and society’s stability is happiness. To beggars, away from starvation is happiness.

We will feel happy when we receive greetings and wishes. A few words like “Happy new year!” or “M erry Christmas” could be pretty delightful. But not all greetings and wishes lead to happiness. For instance, once I received a message from my girlfriend on November 11th. The message said “Hap py bachelors day!”

Actually, no one can be happy forever.

We all confront difficulties and failures and experience reverse

in our daily lives, that is inevitable . We may be upset when we lose a game. We may feel tough when we suffer from diseases.

But it doesn’t matter because happiness is much more beautiful in comparison with these tragedies. As George Bernard Shaw, a famous British dramatist said , “lifetime of happiness? no man alive could bear it, it would be hell on Earth .” We live a hard time so that we value the happy moments. If there is no sadness, then how could we be able to measure happiness?

People never give up the pursuit of happiness. They work hard in order to own a cosy life. They take morning exercises in order to keep healthy. They go on a trip in order to release the tension of emotion…

However, the whole world’s happiness is much more essential than the one’s.

It’s everyone’s duty to make the world full of love.

Actually, we are making move. I can see that more and more people start paying attention to the poor. A lot of Hope Projects emerged as well as charity organizations.

I have a dream that one day when an old man falls down in the middle of the street, passers-by will give a hand instead of walking away.

I believe that one day happiness will exist in every corner of

the world.

什么是幸福？

我相信我们每个人都曾经被家人或亲戚“拷问”过，基本上都是关于“你一个月赚多少钱？”或者“你升职了吗？”，但是很少有人关心：你过的幸福吗？

基于这个现象，一个问题出现在我的脑海：什么是幸福？

正如美国总统富兰克林•罗斯福说的：“人之所以幸福是因为他们认为自己幸福。”

不同的人有不同的幸福方式。对于国家主席来说，国家的和谐和富强就是幸福；对于小商贩来说，卖出更多的东西和拥有更多的顾客就是幸福；对于警察来说，罪恶得到严惩和社会的安宁就是幸福；对于乞丐来说，远离饥饿就是幸福。

当被问候或祝福时，我们就会有幸福的感觉。几个字“新年快乐”或“圣诞快乐”会让人很开心。但是并不是所有的问候和祝福都让人有幸福感，比如，曾经11月11号我收到我女友的一条信息，信息上面说：光棍节快乐！

事实上，没有一个人能一直幸福下去。

生活中我们会面临各种各样的困难和失败，经历挫折，这是不能避免的。我们可能会因为输掉一场比赛而沮丧，我们也可能会遭受疾病的痛苦。

但是这没关系，因为只有在这些悲剧的对比下，才显得幸福更加的美丽。正如乔治•伯纳德•肖，英国著名剧作家所说：“终身幸福？这是任何活着的人都无法忍受的，那将是人间地狱。”因为面对困难的生活，幸福才显得弥足珍贵。如果没有悲伤，那幸福又如何丈量？
