正文 第16章 Waiting Alone For A Lifetime我用一生獨自等待(2)(3 / 3)

Love is something we all need but how do we know when we’ve experienced it?True love is best seen as devotion and action,not an emotion.Love is not exclusively based on how we feel.Certainly our emotions are involved,but they cannot be our only criteria for love.True love is when you care enough about another person that you would lay down your life for them.When this happens,then love truly is“as strong as death”.

How many of you have a mother or father,husband or wife,son or daughter or friend who would sacrifice his or her own life for yours?Those of you who truly love your spouse and children would unselfishlylay your life on the line to save them from death.Many people,in emergency rooms with their loved ones have prayed,“Please God,take me instead of them.”

Find true love,and be a true lover as well.May you find the love which is not only stronger than death but which leads to a truly fulfilling life.

人總是需要一些溫暖。哪怕是一點點自以為是的紀念……

參考翻譯(高昆)

一篇古希伯來文這樣寫道:“愛即生死相許。”由此看來,並非每個人都體驗過如此深沉的愛。貧窮不斷擴散、罪惡繼續蔓延和戰爭頻繁發生,這一切都表明,世界急需真愛。但是,何謂真愛?

人人都需要愛。但是,當我們身處愛中,如何才能意識到它的存在呢?真愛應當是一種奉獻、一種實際行動,而不是一種感覺上的激情。愛並不隻是建立在感知上,它也囊括了情感因素,但這些絕非是衡量愛的唯一標準。真愛來臨時,你可以為心愛的人舍棄性命。愛到如此深重,才稱得上是“生死相許”啊!

有多少人的父母、愛人、兒女或朋友願意為心愛的人舍棄生命呢?隻有那些真正深切關愛家人和孩子的人,才會甘願犧牲自己。我們當中又有多少人在愛人垂死的病榻前虔誠祈禱:“上帝啊,用我的生命把他們的生命換回來吧!”

找尋真愛,做個真心愛人吧!願你的愛不僅如死般強烈,更能引領你走上充滿真愛的人生之路。

Perseverance 毅力

Napoleon declared,“Victory belongs to the most persevering.”Upon careful study we find perseverance depends upon three things—purpose,will,and enthusiasm.He who has a purpose is always concentrating his forces.By the will,the hope and the plan are prevented from evaporating into dreams.Enthusiasm keeps the interest up,and makes the obstacles seem small.
