You think that because I am poor and plain, I have no feelings?你以为我一贫如洗， 长相平庸就没有感情吗？I promise you, if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you.告诉你吧，如果是上帝赐予我财富和美貌，我会让你难以离开我，就像现在我难以离开你一样。I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh: it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the gave, and we stood at God's feet, equal——as we are!今天我以平等的灵魂站在你面前，抛除陈规旧俗、抛除身份尊卑，我的灵魂仍然能同你的灵魂对话，仿佛我们穿越生死，站在上帝脚下，彼此平等。I am a free human being with an independent will, which I now exert to leave you.我是一个有独立意志的自由人，现在我自愿离开你。02I can live alone, if self-respect, and circumstances require me so to do.如果我的自尊和外在现实不能融合，我可以不结婚而独自生活。I need not sell my soul to buy bliss.我绝不违背自己的良心来换取富贵的生活。I have an inward treasure born with me, which can keep me alive if all extraneous delights should be withheld, or offered only at a price I cannot afford to give.如果外在的欢娱需要我以内心不可承受

I've always viewed life from the side linesJust watching it passing me byIn the past, too afraid to just let go and liveAnd lately too tired to try我把一生过成了一位旁观者总站在彼岸权衡自己的得失结果眼看着时间从掌心溜走年轻时害怕失败年纪大了又力不从心I've envied the people around meSo invested in living each dayWhile I spent my timehiding out from the worldAnd searching for ways to escape我曾嫉妒旁人能全情投入地生活而我只能害怕地躲在角落看着别人上演精彩剧情For most of my life I truly believedI was here to help somebody elseBut now it's so clear it was just an excuseTo avoid living life for myself纵观过去 我曾坚信自己是为别人而活 所以不能轻举妄动如今我才明白那只是个借口是我不求上进的借口It's sad that our lives and the pain we endureCan weaken our strength to move onBut if we get lost in the scars of our pastWithout knowing our lives will be gone苦难和疼痛会削弱我们的意志但如果迷失在过去的伤疤里就会忘记时间从来不等人It's true, people are disappointingThey can turn in the blink of an eyeBut we can't avoid hurting each otherWhen we all want a chance at this life诚然生活中的一些人会让你失望他们可能转眼就面目全非可为了获得人生中的宝贵机会人们注定免不了互相伤害But there's something I've learnedthrough the wisdom of ageA truth ab

Desiderata生命所渴求作者：Max EhrmannGo placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.在嘈杂和慌乱中平静前行，记住和平也许就存在于寂静之中。不卑不亢，和所有人保持良好关系。 Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.平和清晰地说出你的真实想法，同时也倾听他人，尽管会平淡枯燥，可他们也有自己的故事。 Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.躲开那些招摇和咄咄逼人的人们，他们会使你的精神痛苦。如果你将自己与他人相比，那将是苦涩空白一片，因为总会有比你伟大或是比你渺小之人。 Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.只享受你自己的成就和计划吧。专注于你自己的前途，但保持谦卑；这是多变的命运旅途上的必经之路。 Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; m

The first time when I saw her being meek that she might attain height.当能进取时选择了顺从现状，此为其一The second time when I saw her limping before the crippled.在瘸子面前跛行，此为其二The third time when she was given to choose between the hard and the easy and she chose the easy.当面临着困难和容易的选择选择了后者，此为其三The fourth time when she committed a wrong and comforted herself that others also commit wrong.犯错后以其他人皆会犯错为借口，此为其四The fifth time when she forbore for weakness and attributed her patience to strength.因软弱而忍耐并把这种忍耐归于坚强而聊以慰藉，此为其五The sixth time when she despised the ugliness of a face and knew not that it was one of her own masks.鄙视丑恶的面孔却不知自己早已是那副面孔，此为其六And the seventh time when she sang a song of praise and deemed it a virtue.唱起颂歌还以美德自诩，此为其七

Hey girl,嘿，姑娘：So it's a Monday night, you have your wine, Twitter is open and you are live-tweeting The Bachelor thinking to yourself, "Where is my rose?" Let me tell you, Neely, once you are married, these Bachelor nights will not look much different. Only instead of wine, you'll be eating dinner with your husband, still live-tweeting.今天是周一，晚上，你喝着红酒，开着推特，你一边看着《亿万未婚夫》一边用推特吐槽，心里想着，“我的王子会在哪儿呢？”让我告诉你吧，一旦你结婚了，那些看《亿万未婚夫》的夜晚也不会有什么不同，不过你不是在喝红酒，而是和你的丈夫一起吃着晚餐，手里还是在刷推特在线吐槽。Anyway, Single Neely, enjoy this time. Not because it's better than marriage — trust me, marriage is better. But enjoy it because you should be appreciating time with yourself and learning who you are. Go out with your friends more. Do all the happy hours, drink all the wines, and flirt with the cute waiter. Why? Because WHY NOT?!单身的妮莉，无论如何，请享受这一刻。不是因为单身比婚后生活好——相信我，婚后生活更幸福。你要享受这段时间的原因是，你应该珍惜独处的时间，并借此机会更了解自己，多和朋友们聚聚，多做让你开心的事情，多去喝喝红酒，跟可爱的服务生调情，为什么要这样做？因为你为什么不这样做呢？When that guy ghosts you after three great dates, it stings.
