第24章 不要讓教訓再次重複 (10)(3 / 3)

nourish ['nri] v. 養育;滋養

I said, deep footprints can nourish the soul of life, full of washing

sewage pollution and meet clean tomorrow.

我說,重腳印可以滋養靈魂,洗滌人生的斑斑汙汙,迎接清新潔淨的明天。

一個人的完整在於他能為自己的極限讓步,有足夠的勇氣放棄超乎現實的夢想,且並不因此灰心沮喪。

生活更如棒球季候賽,最佳球隊也許會輸掉比賽三分之一的分數,而最差的球隊也會有光輝燦爛的一天。

如果我們勇敢地去愛,接受寬恕,大方地將快樂帶給他人,清楚地明白所有的愛都圍繞在我們身邊。

Life is not a spelling bee, where no matter how many words you' ve gotten right...

no matter how:不管怎樣

We will have achieved a wholeness that others can only aspire to.

aspire to:渴求;向往

勇敢地追隨自己的夢想

Follow Your Dream

I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch in San Ysidro. He has let me use his house to put on fund-raising events to raise money for youth at risk programs.

The last time I was there he introduced me by saying, "I want to tell you why I let Jack use my house. 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. '
