1……….Clean Your Mental Space(Excerpts)
Jennifer Givler
Think about the last time you felt a negative emotion – like stre, anger, or frustration.What was going through your mind as you were going through that negativity? Was your mind cluttered with thoughts? Or was it paralyzed, unable to think?
The next time you find yourself in the middle of a very streful time, or you feel angry or frustrated, stop.Yes, that is right, stop.Whatever you are doing, stop and sit for one minute.While you are sitting there, completely immerse yourself in the negative emotion.Allow that emotion to consume you.Allow yourself one minute to truly feel that emotion.Do not cheat yourself here.Take the entire minute-but only one minute-to do nothing else but feel that emotion.When the minute is over, ask yourself, “Am I willing to keep holding on to this negative emotion as I go through the rest of day?”
Once you are allowed yourself to be totally immersed in the emotion and really feel it, you will be surprised to find that the emotion clears rather quickly.清理心灵的空间
想一下你最近一次感受到的消极情绪,例如压力、愤怒或挫折。当你处于那种消极情绪时你在想什么?是充满了混乱的思绪?还是陷于麻木,无法思考?
下次当你发现自己处于非常紧张的状态时,或是你感到气愤或受挫时,停下来。是的,对,停下来。不管你在做什么,停下来坐上一分钟。坐着的时候,让自己完全沉浸在那种消极情绪之中。
让那种消极情绪吞噬你,给自己一分钟的时间去真切地体会那种情绪,不要欺骗自己。花整整一分钟的时间——但只有一分钟——去体会那种情绪,别的什么也不要做。
当一分钟结束时,问自己:“我是否想在今天余下的时间里继续保持这种消极情绪?”
一旦你允许自己完全沉浸在那种情绪当中并真切体会到它,你就会惊奇地发现那种情绪很快就消失了。2……..Mirror, Mirror---What do I See?(Excerpts)
Marion Franklin
A loving person lives in a loving world.A hostile person lives in a hostile world.Everyone you meet is your mirror.Mirrors have a very particular function.They reflect the image in front of them.Just as a physical mirror serves as the vehicle to reflection, so do all of the people in our lives.When we see something beautiful such as a flower garden, that garden serves as a reflection.In order to see the beauty in front of us, we must be able to see the beauty inside of ourselves.When we love someone, it’s a reflection of loving ourselves.We have often heard things like “I love how I am when I’m with that person.” That simply translates into “I’m able to love me when I love that other person.” Oftentimes, when we meet someone new, we feel as though we “click”.Sometimes it’s as if we’ve known each other for a long time.That feeling can come from sharing similarities.镜子,镜子,告诉我充满爱意的人生活在充满爱意的世界里,充满敌意的人则生活在充满敌意的世界里。你所遇到的每一个人都是你的镜子。
镜子有一个非常独特的功能,那就是映射出在其前面的影像。就像真正的镜子具有反射功能一样,我们生活中的所有人也都能映射出他人的影子。
当我们看到美丽的事物时,例如一座花园,那这花园就起到了反射作用。为了发现我们面前美好的事物,我们必须能发现自己内在的美。我们爱某个人,也正是我们爱自己的表现。我们经常听到这样的话:“当我和那个人在一起的时候,我爱那时的自己。”这句话也可以简单地说成:“在我爱那个人的同时,我也能爱我自己。”有时,我们遇见一个陌生人,感觉仿佛是一见如故,就好像我们已经相识甚久。这种熟悉感可能来自于彼此身上的共同点。
3………..Giving Life Meaning(Excerpts)
James Rick
Have you thought about what you want people to say about you after you’re gone? Can you hear the voices saying, “He was a great man.” Or “She really will be mied.” What else do they say?
One of the strangest phenomena of life is to engage in a work that will last long after death.Isn’t that a lot like investing all your money so that future generations can bare interest on it? Perhaps, yet if you look deep in your own heart, you’ll find something drives you to make this kind of
contribution---something drives every human being to find a purpose that lives on after death.Do you hope to memorialize your name? Have a name that is whispered with reverent awe? Do you hope to have your face carved upon 50 ft of granite rock? Is the answer really that simple? Is the purpose of lifetime contribution an ego-driven desire for a mortal being to have an immortal name or is it something more?
给生命以意义
你有没有想过,你希望人们在你死后怎样评论你?你能否听到这样的说法,“他是个伟大的人”或“人们的确会怀念她”,他们还会说些什么?
人生最奇异的现象之一就是,你从事的事业在你死后仍将长久存在。这和你用所有的钱进行投资以便后人能从中获益难道不是如出一辙吗?也许,如果你审视自己的内心深处,你就会发现促使你做出这种贡献的驱动力——一种驱使每个人寻找在自己死后仍能继续存在的事业的驱动力。
你希望自己的名字被人记住吗?你希望别人提起你的名字时心怀敬畏吗?你希望自己的面容被雕刻在50英尺高的花岗岩上吗?答案真的那么简单吗?贡献一生的目的难道是终将一死之人想要获得不朽名声的自我鞭策的欲望?抑或是其他更伟大的事物? 4………Abundance is a Life Style(Excerpts)
Catherine Franz
Abundance is a life style, a way of living your life.It isn’t something you buy now and then or pull down from the
cupboard, dust off and use once or twice, and then return to the cupboard.Abundance is a philosophy;it appears in your physiology, your value system, and carries its own set of beliefs.You walk with it, sleep with it, bath with it, feel with it, and need to maintain and take care of it as well.Abundance doesn’t always require money.Many people live with all that money can buy yet live empty inside.Abundance begins inside with some main self-ingredients, like love, care, kindne and gentlene, thoughtfulne and compaion.Abundance is a state of being.It radiates outward.It shines like the sun among the many moons in the world.富足的生活方式
富足是一种生活方式。它不是你偶尔买来,从架子上拿下来,抹去灰尘用上一两次然后又放回到架子上的东西。
富足是一种哲学,它体现于你的生理机能和价值观之中,并带有自己的一套信仰。无论走路,睡觉,洗澡你都会感受到它,你还要维护并照顾它。
富足并不一定需要金钱。许多人拥有金钱所能买到的一切,但却内心空虚。富足源自内心,其中包含一些重要的自我成分,比如爱,关心,善良和温柔,体贴与同情。富足是一种存在状态,它向外发散,像处于众多星球之间的太阳那样发光发热。
第2篇:英语美文段落背诵
Youth Youth is not a time of life;it is a state of mind;it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees;it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions;it is the freshne of the deep springs of life.Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living.In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wirele station: so long as it receives meages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young.------
Risks To laugh is to risk appearing the fool.To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.To reach out for another is to risk involvement.To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self.To place your ideas and your dreams before a crowd is to risk their lo.To love is to risk not being loved in return.To live is to risk dying.To hope is to risk despair.To try is to risk failure.But risks must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.The person, who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing and is nothing.This person may avoid suffering and sorrow, but cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, live.Chained by attitudes he is a slave;and forfeited freedom.Only a person who risks is free.------
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die;a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;A time to kill, and a time to heal;a time to break down, and a time to build up;A time to weep, and a time to laugh;a time to mourn, and a time to dance;A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;A time to get, and a time to lose;a time to keep, and a time to cast away;A time to rend, and a time to sew;a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;A time to love, and a time to hate;a time of war, and a time of peace.-
Ecclesiastes 3:3
------
Bleed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.Bleed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.Bleed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.Bleed are they which do hunger and thirst after
righteousne: for they shall be filled.Bleed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.Bleed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.Bleed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the
children of God.Bleed are they which are persecuted for righteousne' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.Bleed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.--Matthew 5:3-11------
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.Give us this day our daily bread.And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever.Amen.--Matthew 6:9-13------
First they came for the communists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.Then they came for the socialists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a socialist.Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me.--Martin Niem?ller------
An Anonymous Poem After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul, And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning and company doesn’t mean security,And you begin to learn that kies aren’t contracts and presents aren’t promises,And you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes open, with the grace of an adult, not the grief of a child, And learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans.After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.So plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.And you learn that really can endure…that your really are strong, And you really do have worth.------
Happine Consists in Love
Who can say in what remotene of time, in what difference of earthly shape, love first comes to us as a stranger in the jungle? We, in our human family, know him through dependence in childhood, through poeion in youth, through sorrow and lo in their season.In childhood we are happy to receive;it is the first opening of love.In youth we take and give, dedicate and poe—rapture and anguish are mingled, until parenthood brings a dedication that, to happy, must ask for no return.All these are new horizons of content, which the lust of holding, the enemy of love, slowly contaminates.Lo, sorrow and separation come, sickne and death;poeion, that tormented us, is nothing in our hands;it vanishes.Love’s elusive enchantment, his ubiquitous presence, again became apparent;and in age we may reach a haven that asking for nothing knows how to enjoy.------
Mystery We are all still romantics at heart.The romantics give us back our moon, for instance, which science has taken away from us and made into just another airport.Secretly we all want the moon to be what it was before—a mysterious, hypnotic light in the sky.We want love to be mysterious too, as it used to be, and not a set of psycho-therapeutic rules for interpersonal relationships.We crave mystery even as we forge ahead toward the solution of one cosmic mystery after another.

1.青春------------青春不是人生的一个阶段,而是一种心境;青春不是指粉红的面颊、鲜艳的嘴唇、富有弹性的膝盖,而是指坚定的意志、丰富的想象、充沛的情感;青春,它是清新的生命之泉。
青春是一种气质,勇敢胜过怯弱,渴求冒险而不贪图安逸。这样的气息60老者常常有,20青年恰恰无。年岁增添,未必使人垂老;理想不再,终于步入暮年。
岁月悠悠,衰微只及肌肤;热忱抛却,颓废必致灵魂。忧烦、惶恐、自卑,使人心灵扭曲,心灰意冷。
无论60还是16岁,人人心中都怀着对新奇事物的向往,象孩童般对未来充满憧憬,此情永不消退,在生活的游戏中汲取快乐。在你我的内心深处都有一座无线电台,只要它接收到人间和上帝发出的美好、希望、欢乐、勇气和力量的信号,你就会青春永驻。
一旦你收拢天线,心灵即被愤世嫉俗和自暴自弃的冰霜覆盖,
