双语有声阅读：生活是一场游戏（在线收听） |
Image life as a game in which you are playing some five balls in the air.You name them - work, family, health, friends and spirit, and you’re keeping all these balls in the air.
You understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back.But the other four balls are made of glass. If you drop one of these,it will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, damaged or even broken into pieces.They will never be the same. You must learn to strive for balance in your life. How?
Don’t undermine your worth by comparing yourself to others. It is because we are different that each of us is special.
Don’t set your goals by what other people consider important. Only you know what is best for you.
Don’t take for granted the things closest to your heart. Hold on to them as you would to life, for without them, it’s meaningless.
Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Don’t be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us to each together.
Don’t be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible to find.The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly;and the best way to keep love is to giveit wings.
Don’t forget, a person’s greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.
Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.
Don’t use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved.
Don’t let life slip through your fingers by living in the past or in the future.By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life.
Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.
Life is not a race, but a journey to be enjoyed slowly each step of the way. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift. That’s why we call it - the present.
想像生活就是一场游戏，在这个游戏中，你向空中抛出五个球。你点着它们的名字：工作，家庭，健康，朋友和心境，而你正在让这些球保持在空中。
你明白工作是一个橡胶球。既使你没有接住它，它也会反弹回来。但是其他四个球都是用玻璃制成的。如果你掉落其中一个，它将会无法挽回地留下划痕和缺口，甚或是摔得粉碎。它们永远都不会恢复到原来的样子了。你必须努力学会权衡生活。怎样去做呢？
不要因为和他人比较而使自己的价值逐渐削弱，因为我们每个人都是与众不同的。
不要把目标定在别人所认为重要的事情上。因为只有你才知道什么最适合自己。
不要把什么事情都看作心中最紧要的。并依靠它们去活命，因为它们有时候毫无意义。
不要在你尚可给予的时候放弃.因为没有任何事情会在你尝试之前失败。
不要担心承认你不够完美。因为正是这根脆弱的细线将我们联结在一起。
不要畏惧遭遇冒险。因为这正是使我们学会勇敢的机会。
不要说不可能找到爱就把爱关在生活的门外，因为最快得到爱的方式就是付出爱，最快失去爱的方式就是把爱抓得太紧，而保持爱的最好方式是让它插上翅膀。
不要忘记，一个人最大的情感需求是得到欣赏（赏识）。
不要害怕去学习。因为知识是没有重量，并且总是能够轻易随身携带的财富。
不要轻率地使用时间或者言辞。因为两者都不可能被收回。
不要因生活在过去或者将来而让生命从你的指尖滑过。一天接一天踏实地去生活，那你生活的每一天都是自己的生活。
不要过怏地穿越生活而忘记了你身在何处，将向何方。
生活不是跑步比赛，而是沿途每一步都值得慢慢欣赏的旅行。昨天已是历史，明天还是一个谜，而今天则是一份礼物。因此我们称它为“present"。
