It was as if time had been put temporarily on hold and I along with it. Or maybe I was the only one unpausedEither way,
3、the solitude was comforting, and I sensed myself floating away. I sat down on the edge of a curb and listened. All there was to hear was the wind rushing over the top of my head and circling some old, cracking leaves some yards away. To me it was the reassuring sound of nature, trying not to be forg
4、otten.It did start to snow. None of those little flurries, but big, fat flakes which clung immediately to their surface.Then it was time to go and my reverie had to end.

Joy in living can never be assumed as a pose, or put on from the outside as a mask. People who have this joy don not need to ta
7、lk about it; they radiate it. They just live out their joy and let it splash its sunlight and glow into other lives as naturally as bird sings.We can never get it by working for it directly. It comes, like happiness, to those who are aiming at something higher. It is a byproduct of great, simple liv
8、ing. The joy of living comes from what we put into living, not from what we seek to get from it.中文翻译：中文翻译：生活之乐趣来源于良好的情绪，信赖这些情绪，并任由它们如同鸟儿高翔 于天空般地自由自在。生活的乐趣是无法靠姿态摆出来的，也无法用戴上一张 面具来伪装。 拥有这种乐趣的人们无需挂在嘴边，他们自然会焕发出快乐的气 息。他们自己生活在快乐当中，也将这样的快乐自然而然地感染着他人，犹如 是鸟儿就必将歌唱。直接追求生活的乐趣却只会使乐趣远离我们，它与幸福一样青睐胸有大志 的人们。生活过得高雅、简单
9、便会产生出乐趣。它是我们对生活的投入，而非 所求。3.3.我命运，我把握我命运，我把握( (不断超越自己不断超越自己) )正如世界上没有两片相同的叶子，我们每个人都是独一无二的。相信自己， 命运就掌握在我们的手中。Consider YOU. In all time before now and in all time to come, there has never been and will never be anyone just like you. You are unique in the entire history and future of the universe. Wow!
10、Stop and think about that. Youre better than one in a million, or a billion, or a gazillionYou are the only one like you in a sea of infinity!Youre amazing! Youre awesome! And by the way, TAG, youre it. As amazing and awesome as you already are, you can be even more so. Beautiful young people are th
11、e whimsey of nature, but beautiful old people are true works of art. But you dont become “beautiful“ just by virtue of the aging process.Real beauty comes from learning, growing, and loving in the ways of life. That is the Art of Life. You can learn slowly, and sometimes painfully, by just waiting f
12、or life to happen to you. Or you can choose to accelerate your growth and intentionally devour life and all it offers. You are the artist that paints your future with the brush of today.Paint a Masterpiece.God gives every bird its food, but he doesnt throw it into its nest. Wherever you want to go,
13、whatever you want to do, its truly up to you.中文翻译：中文翻译：试想一下你!一个空前绝后的你，不论是以往还是将来都不会有一个跟 你一模一样的人。你在历史上和宇宙中都是独一无二的。哇!想想吧，你是万里 挑一、亿里挑一、兆里挑一的。在无穷无尽的宇宙中，你是举世无双的。你是了不起的!你是卓越的!没错，就是你。你已经是了不起的，是卓越的， 你还可以更卓越更了不起。美丽的年轻人是大自然的奇想，而美丽的老人却是 艺术的杰作。但你不会因为年龄的渐长就自然而然地变得“美丽”。真正的美丽源于生命里的学习、成长和热爱。这就是生命的艺术。你可以 只听天由命, 慢慢地学，
14、有时候或许会很痛苦。又或许你可以选择加速自己的 成长，故意地挥霍生活及其提供的一切。你就是手握今日之刷描绘自己未来的 艺术家。画出一幅杰作吧。上帝给了鸟儿食物，但他没有将食物扔到它们的巢里。不管你想要去哪里， 不管你想要做什么，真正做决定的还是你自己。4.4. 掌握未来：我们正在起跑点掌握未来：我们正在起跑点“We are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book whose pages are infinite-“I do not know who wrote those words, but I have always l

If we plant a good seed, we reap
16、 a good harvest. If our seed is poor and full of weeds, we reap a useless crop. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.I want the future to be better than the past. I dont want it contaminated by the mistakes and errors with which history is filled. We should all be concerned about the future because that is where we will spend the reminder of our lives.The past is gone and static. Nothing we can do will change it
