其实这篇文字具有宗教色彩,是赞美上帝的
但中心意义是引人向上
我简单翻译如下:
The best day of my life
我生命中最美好的一天
Today, when I awoke, I suddenly realized that this is the best day of my life, ever!
There were times when I wondered if I would make it to today; but I did!
And because I did I’m going to celebrate!
今天,我醒来的时候,我忽然意识到今天是我生命中最美好的一天!
曾经我怀疑是否能活到今天,可今天我还活着!
正因为我活着,我要庆祝!
Today, I am going to celebrate what an unbelievable life I have so far; the accomplishments, the many blessings, and yes, even the hardships because they have served to make me stronger.
今天,我将赞美我至今难以置信的生命;我做出的成绩;我得到的恩赐;当然,还包括遇到的挫折,因为这些挫折使我更坚强!
I will go through this day with my head held high, and a happy heart.
I will marvel at god’s seemingly simple gifts:
the morning dew, the sun,
the clouds, the trees.
the flowers, the birds
Today none of these miraculous creations will escape my notice.
这一天我将昂首挺胸,舒心展意。我将珍惜上帝赋予的看似平凡的礼物
晨露,阳光
云朵,树木
鲜花,小鸟
今天,所以这些奇妙的东西都不会逃过我的眼睛
Today, I will share my excitement for life with other people.
I’ll make someone smile.
I’ll go out of my way to perform an unexpected act of kindness for some one I don’t even know.
Today, I’ll give a sincere compliment to some one who seems down
今天,我要把生命的喜悦和他人分享
我要让他人欢笑
我要给即使我不相识的人施善。今天我要对身处逆境的人送去温暖
I’ll tell a child how special he is, and I’ll tell someone I love just how deeply I care for her and much she means to me.
我要告诉一个孩子他多么的特别。我要对我爱的人说,我对她深情似海,她对我多么的重要
Today is the day I quit worrying about what I don’t have and start being grateful for all the wonderful things God has already given me.
I’ll remember that to worry is just a waste of time because of my faith in god. And his Devin Plan ensures everything will be just fine.
今天,我将停止抱怨我没有的东西,而开始感谢上帝已给我的所有
我会记住抱怨只不过是浪费时间,我崇敬上帝,他会安排我的一切
And tonight, before I go to bed,
I’ll go outside and raise my eyes to the heavens.
I’ll stand in the awe of beauty of the stars and moon.
And I will praise god for these magnificent treasures.
今天,在我就寝之前
我会走出屋外,扬起头,敬望漫天星辰
我要赞美上帝的博大圣恩
As the day ends and I lay my head down on my pillow
I will thank the almighty for the best day of my life
And I’ll sleep the sleep of a contented child, excited with expectation because.
I know tomorrow is going to be the best day of my life ever!
在这一天要结束,我将头放在枕头上的时候
我感激我所赋予的这生命中最美好的一天
我会象个心满意足的孩子一般睡去,
因为我知道,
明天又将是我生命中最美好的一天!
