優(yōu)秀的英語散文:寫給自己的一封信
Dear Myself,
親愛的自己,
Life is scary. One day you wake up feeling like you can take over the world, and the next day you wake up feeling like all you want to do is to lay in bed and hide from everything.
生活讓人膽寒。一天醒來你還覺得自己能夠接管世界,隔天起來你就只想在床上躺著,不理世事。
People walk into your life, grab your hand, and lead you the most beautiful path you've known, but sometimes the same people let go of your hand without warning, and you become stranded at a place where you never thought you'ld feel lost.
有人走入你的生活,抓著你的手,向你展示已知的美好人生之路。但同樣是這個人,在毫無預(yù)警的情況下放開你的手,你被困在當下,之前從未想過人生會如此迷惘。
Let's be honest, sometimes everything is going so great and it seems like nothing could go wrong , but right when you begin to think that, something so horrible comes crashing down and all of a sudden more problems come ricocheting around you and you just feel so hopeless cause it's so bad...
誠然,有時候一切看起來順風(fēng)順水,當你這樣認為的時候,一些不好的事情就會接踵而至(福兮禍所伏),一下讓你很難接受,萬念俱灰。
It's so hard to understand why such things happen in life,and I personally wish I had an answer to that "why?" you always ask yourself , but all I can say that is no matter how hard life gets,you have to keep going. The life around you will never stop going on.
生活真是讓人費解,一念天堂,一念地獄。我真心希望自己能領(lǐng)悟生活為什么會這樣。但無論生活怎樣艱難,你也只能熬著。生活一直在繼續(xù)。
I'll be honest and say that sometimes I feel a little bit worried and all I can think is "will I be able to keep up? What if everything goes too fast?" But I realized that being scared and living with that burden of running away from problems only slow me down even more.
老實說我總是有點擔心,我所想的就是“我還能不能堅持?如果一切都這樣飛速發(fā)展著?”但我意識到,老是這樣戰(zhàn)戰(zhàn)兢兢,回避問題,反而讓自己更加落后。
And I've come to the point where I believe that because life never stops, I shouldn't stop either. It's okay to take break and to give yourself time to heal, but you cannot give up and you cannot quit.
而且關(guān)鍵在于生活不止,追求不息。停下來休息一會兒,或是抽點時間自愈下沒有問題,但是你不能放棄,一定不要放棄。
Keep positive, fill you heart with gratitude for what you already have, and always remind to humble and true to who you are!
你能做的是,保持積極樂觀,常懷感恩之心,保持謙卑,活出真我!
With Love,
愛你的
Your Soul
你的靈魂
優(yōu)秀的英語散文:所有的路,最終都是回家的路
When I was a boy there were no smart phones, computers were something you saw on STAR TREK, and our television only got one channel clearly. Still, I was never bored. The fields, hills, and woodlands around my home were the perfect playground whose adventures were only limited by my imagination.
當我還是個小男孩的時候,沒有智能電話、電腦,也沒有什么東西能夠播放“星球大戰(zhàn)”,電視只有一個頻道是清楚的。即使這樣,我也不覺得無聊。家附近的田野、山坡、林地都是極佳的玩耍場所,只有想不到,沒有玩不到的冒險。
I can remember once hiking to a nearby lake and slowly walking around it. At the backside of it I was amazed to find an old, one lane, dirt road that I had never seen before. I immediately set out to travel it. It was full of potholes and muddy tire tracks and deep woods bordered it on both sides, but exploring it still seemed like a fine adventure.
我還記得有次徒步去附近的一個湖,我沿著湖邊慢慢地走著,在湖的后部沿岸,我驚奇的發(fā)現(xiàn)之前沒有的一條上了些年頭的草坪泥濘路。我當即就決定去走走。這條路上遍布凹坑以及泥巴上的輪胎印,在路的兩邊類似分界線般的扎根的植物,這不失為一個冒險的好場所。
I walked on and on for what seemed like hours. I am sure my guardian angel was whispering in my ear to turn around and head back home but I was stubborn and even a bit stupid, so I walked on.
我走啊走,可能有好幾個小時,守護我安全的小天使在我耳邊低語,讓我掉頭回家,但我執(zhí)拗,甚至顯得有些愚蠢,依然執(zhí)意往前走。
The dirt road gave way to a gravel one and then a paved one, yet there was still neither a car nor a house in sight. My legs were getting tired. I noticed that the sun was starting to go down and I grew scared. I didn’t want to end up trapped on this road in the dark of night, but I was sure it would be dark before I could make my way back to the lake again.
泥濘的路走著走著,漸漸變成了砂石路,又慢慢變成了平路,但是目力所及之處未見車和房子。我走得雙腿疲累,太陽開始下山了,我開始害怕起來,我不想等天黑以后困在這條路上,但是如果現(xiàn)在往回,天黑前也回不到湖邊。
I continued to walk on with the fear growing inside of me. My heart was pounding and my legs were aching. I was almost in tears when I turned one last curve and saw something in the distance. It was a house that I recognized.
我繼續(xù)朝前走著,恐懼在我心理蔓延,心跳加速,雙腿疼痛,淚水幾乎要奪眶而出,我最后抬頭一瞥,遠處好像有什么東西,我認出那是一幢房子。
My heart leapt up! I jumped up and down and laughed out loud. I knew the way home! It was still over a mile away but my legs felt like feathers and I hurried back to my house in no time. I walked in with a big smile on my face just in time for dinner. Then I ended my adventure with a good night’s sleep.
我激動不已,上竄下跳,高興地笑出了聲,我認得這是回家的路。盡管還要一英里才能到家,我的腿卻像羽毛般輕快,我迫不及待地回到家里,走進家中,喜悅之情溢于言表,而且正好趕上晚上的飯點。我的冒險以晚上的一場酣睡收尾。
I remembered this recently when I saw a sign that said: “All roads lead Home.” This is true. In this life all roads no matter what their twists and turns can lead us home again. They can lead us to our homes here on Earth. They can lead us to our homes in our hearts.
我記得最近見過的一則標語是這樣說的:“所有的路都是回家的路。”確實是這樣,這輩子所有的路不管怎樣波折最終都會引導(dǎo)著我們回家,有的是回到地球上看得見摸得著的家,有的是回到心里的家。
May you always walk your path with love. May you always help your fellow travelers along the way. And may your roads always lead you Home again.
愿你的人生之路都有愛為伴,愿你在旅途中幫助同路人,愿你人生中的一段又一段旅程都是通往“家”的旅程。
優(yōu)秀的英語散文:當一個作家,書寫自己的人生
The gas station nearest my house happens to face a strip club. It is apparently a very successful strip club, as they could afford to install a LCD screen on their roof that might be visible from the Space Station. It's certainly visible from the gas station. At some point my eyes will drift up while pumping gas, and there will be a one-story image of a young woman in some stage of near-undress.
離我家最近的加油站對面碰巧有一家脫衣舞夜總會。這家夜總的屋頂裝了一個巨大的LED屏幕,說不定在太空上都看得見。能夠支付這樣的費用,看來經(jīng)營得非常成功。不用說,在加油站也能看見那塊屏幕。在加油的時候,我會不經(jīng)意地往上看,一層樓高的屏幕上顯示著一個幾乎一絲不掛的少女。
As I was getting some gas this morning, I wondered for the first time what a woman pumping gas thought when she looked at that screen. Though it would depend on the woman, I thought. A woman who had once been an exotic dancer herself would certainly look at that image differently than a Catholic nun.
今天早上,我又來到這里加油,腦海中突然有一個問題揮之不去:一個女人來加油的時候看到那塊屏幕會有什么想法呢?我覺得那要看她是個怎樣的人。曾經(jīng)當過脫衣舞者的女人和天主教的修女肯定會對那個圖像有不同的看法。
The image would look different to each of us. And when I say look different, I mean we would be seeing what amounts to a different image. For while the young woman's pose and attire that I see are identical to the pose and attire that every other man, woman, and child sees, the story that image tells me is told uniquely by me, by my own ideas about women and advertising and maybe even gas stations.
那張圖像對每個人來說都是不一樣的,這個不一樣是指我們會產(chǎn)生不一樣的想法。雖然那個少女的姿勢打扮在每一個男人、女人、小孩眼中都是一樣的,但是我在那圖像中捕捉到的故事是獨一無二的,是由我自身對女人、廣告、甚至是加油站的想法創(chuàng)造的。
The image is nothing; the story is everything. Good to remember if you're a writer. Writers don't report the facts. The fact that there is a strip club with a giant LCD screen blazing near-nudity for all to see means nothing in reality. All that ever matters is what a person believes when they look upon it. What a person believes is the terrain of the storyteller.
圖像本身什么都不是,故事才是一切。如果你是個作家,你會知道作家并不是描寫現(xiàn)實。那兒有一家脫衣舞夜總會,屋頂上有一塊巨大的LED屏幕,屏幕上顯示著幾近裸體的少女,這是現(xiàn)實,沒有意義的現(xiàn)實。真正有意義的是人看到這個景象時萌生的想法,人的思想是創(chuàng)作故事的土壤。
And by the way, it is the only terrain of the storyteller. Storytellers, whether they are conscious of it or not, wish to alter reality. We are not so interested in changing the image that flashes on the great LCD screen of the world. Mostly that's beyond our control. We could march, or protest, or fill out petitions to get the screen changed, but it's faster, ultimately, to tell ourselves a story about what we see there.
而且,思想是創(chuàng)作故事的唯一土壤。講故事的人會有意無意地想去改變現(xiàn)實。我們不是想把現(xiàn)實中大屏幕上惹眼的圖像換掉,大多數(shù)情況下我們都是有心無力。我們當然可以游行示威,寫信請愿把那屏幕換掉,但說到底,更快捷的辦法是給自己講個跟眼前的事物有關(guān)的故事。
I sometimes forget I have to power to change that story. My mind drifts as idly from thought to thought as my eyes drift from gas pump to pinup. What occurs in this exchange between the world I look upon and the story I tell can happen so fast, can be so habitual, that I can lose track of who is telling the story I am hearing. The moment I remember, the moment I see my mind as a blank page on which to write my life, I am the author once more, and my life is mine again.
有時候我會忘記自己有改變故事的能力。我的視線四處游動,從汽油管飄忽到半裸少女,我的思維也跟著漫不經(jīng)心地跳躍。把眼前的事實創(chuàng)作成的自己故事,這就像我的習(xí)慣一樣,一眨眼的功夫,我已經(jīng)分不清我到底是在創(chuàng)作故事,還是成為了故事的主人公。等我回過神來的時候,等我空白的腦海重新回想起自己生活的時候,我又重新成為故事的作者,重新回到了自己的生活中。
