双语美文：爱你所做，做你所爱

Life is short. Are you doing what you love? Are you living your passion?

人生短暂。你所从事的是你热爱的工作吗？你生活在激情中吗？

If not, why? I am guessing most people will answer that question with "I have a mortgage, a spouse and three kids to support.”In the real world people have responsibilities. They have to make sacrifices. You aren't supposed to be happy with your job but you do it because you have to."

如果不是，为什么？我猜想大部分都会以“我要付房子的按揭贷款，还有爱人和三个孩子要养”之类的回答来搪塞这个问题。的确，在现实生活中，我们有自己的家庭责任，我们不得不做些牺牲，我们做着一些自己并不热爱的工作只因我们必需这样去做。

With all due respect, they are wrong. You can take care of your responsibilities and be happy with your job. We spend over 1/3 of our day, at least five days a week performing our jobs. This is a lot of time to be wasting on something we don't enjoy, is it not? Why not spend that time doing something you truly are passionate about for 50 hours a week instead of something that lacks meaning?

恕我直言，这一切并非正确。你可以兼顾你的责任，同时热爱你的工作。我们一天中要花去1/3的时间，至少一个星期5天去工作。如果不热爱这份工作，这确实是一笔很大的时间浪费，不是吗？为什么不能用这宝贵的时间，一星期50个小时去从做你真正激情洋溢的事情呢，而不是对你来说缺少意义的工作。

I think there is one main reason people don't follow their passion: fear. Fear of how others will react, fear of failure, and fear that they can't do it themselves. I think the first part is for people to realize that they can conquer their fear. You will fail at times and others will think you are crazy at times, but if you believe that you will succeed than you ultimately will.

我认为有些人之所以不去追求他们的梦想是有一个主要的原因：恐惧。惧怕他人的指指点点，惧怕失败，惧怕没有能力完成他们的梦想。我认为第一步人们应该去战胜恐惧。有时我们会失败，有时别人也会觉得你有些疯狂，但只要你坚信你能够成功，那么你最终必将成功。

I understand that it is not easy. I am in the middle of going through it right now. But understand that there are other people out there who have been through what you are going through and can help you immensely. They have failed, been ridiculed, and come out on the other end extremely successful. They are living proof that you can do what you love.

我理解这做起来并不容易。其实，我也正在克服追求我的梦想过程中的恐惧。但我们相信有些人已经从这个恐惧中坚强地走了出来，并愿意帮助我们。他们曾经失败过，被嘲笑过，但他们走向了胜利的彼岸。这些人的故事正是“你能做你所爱”的真实而有力的证据。

双语美文：生活是自己的

She was dressing up in the make-up room and going to perform on the stage, when one of her

friends rushed to her breathlessly and told her that her husband left for another place with another woman. Hearing the news, she just smiled frankly and did not stop making up. She made up very delicately for that show. After ten minutes, she showed on the stage and kept a charming smile as well as a steady tone as usual. She interacted with the audience and threw out quite a few of jokes that deeply pleased her audience. Returning back to the make-up room, she cleansed her makeup and still maintained calm. Her friend felt it incredible: Why she could bear when her husband fooled around with other woman while she was performing?

一个女人参加演出,在后台化妆时,有个朋友风风火火地跑来对她说,她的丈夫跟别的女人走了。女人粲然一笑,没有停止化妆,那一场的妆化得十分精致。十几分钟后,她走上舞台,灿烂地微笑,一如既往的平稳声调。她和观众们进行互动,还说了不少轻松的笑话,她的观众十分开心。回到后台,她卸下妆来,仍然平静如常,她的朋友感到不可思议。自己的丈夫背叛了她,趁她演出的时候跟别的女人在一起,作为妻子,能忍受吗?

There was another woman singer having the similar experience. When she reached the age of retirement, she suffered the change of marriage. Her husband had another woman and departed from her, leaving her feeling sad alone. She told others miserably that she broke down with her husband because their characteristics were not suitable for each other and that she had chosen a wrong man initially. Many of her fans had thought that her singing career would come to an end since then. As a female singer who had lost her youth and love, how could she still strive in her field?

还有一个女人,作为一位歌手,她的年纪已到了收山的年龄。这时,她遭遇了婚变,她的丈夫有了另外的女人,她和丈夫分手了,她很悲伤。她对别人说,我和丈夫是因为性格不合分开的,我从当初就选错了人,言语之间,无限悲怆。许多歌迷都认为她的艺术生涯可能到此结束了,一个没有年龄优势的女人,一个丧失情感寄托的女人,还能在歌坛上拼搏下去?

However, the choices of both ladies mentioned above are totally beyond our wildest dream. The first lady was Jin Yuxi. After divorce, (Motivational model ) her career reached a higher peak and she led a more colorful life. Wherever she went, she would keep a smiling and confident profile. The second lady was Cai Qin. She did not give up singing with youth fading away. On the contrary, her career leapt to another culmination.

事实上,她们所选择的,所告诉我们的,完全出乎我们意料之外。第一个女人叫靳羽西,她的事业在婚变后更加辉煌,她一个人的生活更加精彩,无论走到哪里,她都笑意盈盈、自信满满。第二个女人叫蔡琴,她没有随着年龄的老去而放弃歌唱,相反,她的事业更臻佳境。

There are numerous women’lives ruined by failed marriage, but these two ladies’did not. The reason is indeed very simple. Cai Qin once said, “Your life is yours, not others!”It is more than true that your life is belonging uniquely to yourself and you should sense and capture every moment of happiness from life with a generous and grateful mindset. No one would present you happiness unless you seize it by yourself in daily life!

有多少女人毁在婚姻手中,但是,这两个女人没有。道理其实很简单。蔡琴说:“生活是自己的啊!”真的,生活是自己的,你的每一天,你的每一份快乐,上苍是不会随随便便赐给你的,而是需要你用豁达的心态、感恩的心灵去努力捕捉和感悟的。
