(单词翻译:单击)

   Not until you realize that life itself is a beautiful thing will you really start to live. Although living combines tragedy with splendor1, life is beautiful and even tragedies reflect something engaging. If you were simply to live, do more than that; live beautifully.

  只有在你了解了人生的真谛后,才能真正地生活。虽然人生苦忧参半,但依旧美妙,而且即使在悲剧中也藏着迷人之处。如果你只是活着,那就再努力点吧,试着活得精彩。
  Through the sea of darkness, hope is the light that brings us comfort, faith, and reassurance2. It guides our way if we are lost and gives us a foothold on our fears. The moment we lose hope is the moment we surrender our will to live. We live in a world that is disintegrating3 into a vicious hatred4, where hope is needed more than ever but cannot be discerned. Finding that is rare while the world lives in fear, but the belief in something better, something bigger than this, is what keeps life worth living.
  在潮水般的黑暗之中,希望是光。它带来舒适、信仰和信心。它在我们迷失时给予指引,在我们恐惧时给予支持。而在我们放弃希望的那一刻,也就放弃了生命。我们生活的世界正瓦解成一个充满恶意和仇恨的地方,在这里我们就更需要希望,却又难以寻得。在这充满恐惧的世界里,找到希望谈何容易,但是,对更好、更有意义的人生的信仰才会让生命有意义。
  Then you hear a baby speaking her first word, you see seniors holding hands, you feel the first spring rain, or smell the pine tree at Christmas, and remember that no matter how awful it is, there is always hope. No matter how weak we are, we will always survive.
  然后,你听到婴儿说出第一个字、看到老年夫妇挽起对方的手、感受到第一场春雨或是闻到圣诞节松树的味道,你要明白,无论现在多么糟糕,希望永在;无论我们多么脆弱,我们终将是人生的幸存者。
