名校勵志英語演講 第55期:拯救世界 拯救兒童
But maybe he was too close to heaven, becausewhen I came to his town, he had already died, andthey had buried him in the glove and jacket.
不過也許他離天堂實(shí)在太近了，我來到他的城市時(shí)，他已經(jīng)走了，他們埋葬他時(shí)給他穿上了那件夾克戴了那只手套。
He was just 10 years old. God knows, I know, thathe tried his best to hold on. But at least when hedied, he knew that he was loved, not only by hisparents, but even by me, a near stranger, I also loved him. And with all of that love he knewthat he didn't come into this world alone, and he certainly didn't leave it alone.
他只有10歲。上帝知道，我知道，他曾經(jīng)多么努力地堅(jiān)持過。但至少，在他離開時(shí)，他知道自己是被深愛著，不僅被父母愛著，也被我愛著。雖然幾乎是陌生人，我也愛著他。擁有了這些愛，他知道他不是獨(dú)自來到這個(gè)世界的，當(dāng)然也不會孤獨(dú)地離開。
If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, theneverything that happens in between can he dealt with. A professor may degrade you, but youwill not feel degraded, a boss may crush you, but you will not be crushed, a corporategladiator might vanquish you, but you will still triumph. How could any of them truly prevailin pulling you down? For you know that you are an object worthy of love. The rest is justpackaging.
如果你降臨或離開這個(gè)世界時(shí)感到被愛著，那么期間發(fā)生的一切事情你都可以應(yīng)付。教授可能給你降級，可你自己不會感到被降級;老板可能排擠你，可你不會被排擠掉;一個(gè)辯論對手可能會擊敗你，可你卻仍能勝利。他們怎么能真正戰(zhàn)勝你擊倒你呢?因?yàn)槟阒滥阒档帽粣?，其余的只是一層包裝罷了。
But if you don't have that memory of being loved, you are condemned to search the world forsomething to fill you up. But no matter how much money you make or how famous youbecome, you will still fell empty. What you are really searching for is unconditional love,unqualified acceptance. And that was the one thing that was denied to you at birth.
但是，如果你沒有被愛的記憶，你就無法發(fā)現(xiàn)世界上有什么東西能夠讓你充實(shí)。無論你掙了多少錢，無論你有多出名，你仍會覺得空虛。你真正尋找的只是無條件的愛和完全的包容。而那些在你誕生時(shí)就已把你拒之門外。
