Please Join the Smile Club And Be Grateful
微笑不用花费分文,但它的馈赠却是丰厚的。微笑是风度,是气度,是爱,是友善,是平和。让微笑永驻!生活是一面镜子,你对它笑,它也会对你笑;你对他哭,它也会对你哭。如果对生活感恩,你的生命将充满灿烂的阳光;如果一味怨恨,终将一无所获。

Celebration of Life生命的庆典
I was discouraged because I wanted to know why we as a culture wait until somebody have passed away before we tell them how much we love them. Why do we wait until someone’s ears can’t hear before we let them know how much they mean to us? Why do we wait until it is too late before we recall the good qualities of a person? Why do we build someone up after they have gone into eternity? What good does it do then? We share memory after memory, as we laugh, cry, and think back about what was positive in a person’s life. Yes, it does help us cope with the grief of losing someone who was special to us, and, yes, it does bring those who are coping closer together. Unfortunately, as we lovingly remember this person, our words fall short of the ears that most needed to hear them. Just once I would like to see a celebration of life instead of a gathering of death. A celebration where stories are told, eyes mist over, laughter rings out, and as the speaker concludes his or her loving tribute, the person they are honoring rises from his chair and gives them the biggest bear hug!Wouldn’t that be something! The special people get to hear the stories and come to the realization that they have made a difference on this earth, and all this is done well before they leave their earthly bodies and go into eternity. When the inevitable funerals finally come, we can say good-bye with the knowledge that they knew exactly how people felt about them while they were here on earth.
我很沮丧,因为我想知道为什么我们要等待那么久,直到别人去世了,才告诉他们,我们有多么爱他们?为什么我们要等到别人耳朵都听不到了才让他们知道他们对我们有多么重要?为什么我们要等到已经来不及的时候才回想起别人的优点?为什么要等别人死后才将他树为楷模?那时候再做又有什么用呢?我们分享一个又一个的记忆,我们一会儿笑一会儿哭地回忆着他一生中的重要时刻.是的,这的确帮助我们应对失去一个对我们很特殊的人的悲伤,也会让有同感的人更紧密.不幸的是,当我们生动地回忆这个人时,最需要听这话的人却听不到我们的话语了.我只想看哪怕一次生命的庆典而不是死亡的聚会.在这个庆典中,人们讲着趣事,眼光交流,笑声四起,而当演讲者讲完他或她的爱的情意时,他们尊敬的人从椅子上站起来,紧紧地与其拥抱.这不是件天大的好事吗?那些对我们有特殊意义的人应该听到那些故事,然后意识到他们在世界上制造了不同,所有这一切都应该在他们离开他们尘世的肉体,去往永恒之前做好.这样当最终的葬礼到来的时候,当我们和他们说再见之即,同时明确地知道他们了解生前人民对他们的想法.
The Joy of Living 生活的乐趣
Joy in living comes from having fine emotions, trusting them, giving them the freedom of a bird in the open. Joy in living can never be assumed as a pose, or put on from the outside a mask. People who have this joy don’t need to talk about it, they radiate it. They just live out their joy and let it splash its sunlight into other lives as nature as a bird sings.
We can never get it from working for it directly. It comes, like happiness, to those who are aiming at something higher. It’s a byproduct of great, simple living. The joy of living comes from what we put into our living, not from what we seek to get from it.
生活的乐趣来源于良好的情绪,信赖这些情绪,并任由它们如鸟儿高飞于天空那般自由自在。生活的乐趣是无法靠姿态摆出来的,也无法用带上一张面具来伪装。拥有这种乐趣的人们无需挂在嘴上,他们自然会焕发出欢乐的气息。他们自己生活在快乐当中,这样的快乐自然而然地感染着他人,犹如是鸟儿就必将歌唱。
直接追求生活的乐趣却只会使乐趣远离我们,它与幸福一样青睐胸有大志的人。生活过得高雅,简单就会产生出乐趣。它是我们对生活的投入,而非所求。
Smiles 微笑
Smiles send us light in the darkness. Smiles bring us warm sunlight on a cold winter day. Smiles can break the hard ice. Smiles are like the rainbow. The rainy days end and the sky is beautiful again.
Smiles show love and friendship. Teachers’ smiles encourage us. Mothers’ smiles warm us. Friends’ smiles make us closer.
We welcome smiles from others. And we should give others our smiles too. No one is richer than a man who often smiles at others. If a man doesn’t smile at you, just smile at him. Smiles help you forget your sadness. Life is a long road. Why not cover it with smiles?
微笑在黑暗中给我们送来光明。微笑在寒冷的冬日带给我们温暖的阳光。微笑能打破坚冰。微笑犹如彩虹。雨天结束,天空重现美丽。
微笑体现着爱和友谊。老师的微笑激励着我们。母亲的微笑使我们感到温暖。朋友的微笑使我们更加亲密。
我们欢迎别人的微笑。我们也该向别人微笑。没有谁会比一个经常向别人微笑的人更富有。如果一个人没有对你微笑,就向他微笑吧。微笑让你忘却悲伤。生活之路很漫长。我们为什么不微笑着一直走下去呢?

When you smile at someone and they smile back, you automatically feel better. Even if they don’t smile back, you will feel better because you know the most destitute person in the world is the one without a smile. You immediately become richer by giving that person yours.
