英語美文 我要用全身心的愛來迎接今天 (上)
The Scroll Marked Two 羊皮卷之二
I will greet this day with love in my heart.
我要用全身心的愛來迎接今天。
For this is the greatest secret of success in all ventures. Muscle can split a shield and even destroy life but only the unseen power of love can open the hearts of men and until I master this art I will remain no more than a peddler in the market place. I will make love my greatest weapon and none on whom I call can defend against its force.
因爲，這是一切成功的最大祕密。強力能夠劈開一塊盾牌，甚至毀滅生命，但是隻有愛才具有無與倫比的力量，使人們敞開心扉。在掌握了愛的藝術之前，我只算商場上的無名小卒。我要讓愛成爲我最大的武器，沒有人能抵擋它的威力。
My reasoning they may counter; my speech they may distrust; my apparel they may disapprove; my face they may reject; and even my bargains may cause them suspicion; yet my love will melt all hearts liken to the sun whose rays soften the coldest clay.
我的理論，他們也許反對；我的言談，他們也許懷疑；我的穿着，他們也許不贊成；我的長相，他們也許不喜歡；甚至我廉價出售的商品都可能使他們將信將疑，然而我的愛心一定能溫暖他們，就像太陽的光芒能溶化冰冷的凍土。
I will greet this day with love in my heart.
我要用全身心的愛來迎接今天。
And how will I do this? Henceforth will I look on all things with love and I will be born again. I will love the sun for it warms my bones; yet I will love the rain for it cleanses my spirit. I will love the light for it shows me the way; yet I will love the darkness for it shows me the stars. I will welcome happiness for it enlarges my heart; yet I will endure sadness for it opens my soul. I will acknowledge rewards for they are my due; yet I will welcome obstacles for they are my challenge.
我該怎樣做呢？從今往後，我對一切都要滿收愛心，這樣才能獲得新生。我愛太陽，它溫暖我的身體；我愛雨水。它洗淨我的靈魂；我愛光明，它爲我指引道路；我也愛黑夜，它讓我看到星辰、我迎接快樂，它使我心胸開闊；我忍受悲傷，它昇華我的靈魂；我接受報酬。因爲我爲此付出汗水；我不怕困難，因爲它們給我挑戰。
I will greet this day with love in my heart.
我要用全身心的愛來迎接今天。
And how will I speak? I will laud mine enemies and they will become friends; I will encourage my friends and they will become brothers. Always will I dig for reasons to applaud; never will I scratch for excuses to gossip. When I am tempted to criticize I will bite on my tongue; when I am moved to praise I will shout from the roofs.
我該怎樣說呢？我讚美敵人。敵人於是成爲朋友；我鼓勵朋友，朋友于是成爲手足。我要常想理由讚美別人，絕不搬弄是非，道人長短。想要批評人時，咬住舌頭，想要讚美人時，高聲表達。
Is it not so that birds, the wind, the sea and all nature speaks with the music of praise for their creator? Cannot I speak with the same music to his children? Henceforth will I remember this secret and it will change my life.
飛鳥，清風，海浪，自然界的萬物不都在用美妙動聽的歌聲讚美造物主嗎？我也要用同樣的歌聲讚美她的兒女。從今往後，我要記住這個祕密。它將改變我的生活。
I will greet this day with love in my heart.
我要用全身心的愛來迎接今天。
