精美英文欣赏:想想美好的东西

Try to remember the good things

When times become difficult (and you know they sometimes will), remember a moment in your life that was filled with joy and happiness.

Remember how it made you feel, and you will have the strength you need to get through any trial.

When life throws you one more obstacle than you think you can handle, remember something you achieved through perseverance¹ and by struggling to the end.

In doing so, you'll find you have the ability to overcome each obstacle brought your way.

When you find yourself drained and depleted² of energy, remember to find a place of sanctuary³ and rest.

Take the neccessary time in your own life to dream your dreams and renew your energy, so you'll be ready to face each new day.

When you feel tension building, find something fun to do. You'll find that the stress you feel will dissipate and your thoughts will become clearer.

When you're faced with so many negative and draining situations, realize how minuscule⁴ problems will seem when you view your life as a whole--and remember the positive things.

想想美好的东西

当你身陷困境的时候（你有时会），回想你生命中快乐和幸福的时刻。

回想它是如何使你快乐，你便有了走出困境的勇气。

当面对重重困难，你感觉举步维艰的时候，回想你以前是如何坚持到底战胜困难的最后时刻的。

这样，你就会发现你有能力克服每个障碍。

当你觉得精疲力尽的时候，暂时离开，让自己稍作休息。

给自己留点时间做做梦，充一下电，这样你就能以崭新的面貌去面对每一天。

当你感觉到紧张的压力，做一些有乐趣的事吧。你会发现压力在渐渐消逝，你的想法也渐渐明朗了。

当你面对重重困难的时候，要意识到相对于你的整个生命，这些难题其实是微不足道的－－铭记你生命中美好的东西。
