二十九 无关风月Ⅷ(2 / 2)

and I stopped designing huge projects for the future.</P>

today, I only do what brings me joy and happiness,</P>

things I love to do and that make my heart cheer,</P>

and I do them in my own way</P>

and in my own rhythm.</P>

today I call it</P>

'hoNEStY'.</P>

当我开始真正爱自己,</P>

我不再牺牲自己的自由时间,</P>

不再去勾画什么宏伟的明天。</P>

今天我只做有趣和快乐的事,</P>

做自己热爱,让心欢喜的事,</P>

用我的方式,以我的韵律。</P>

今天我明白了,这叫做</P>

『单纯』。</P>

As I began to love myself</P>

I freed myself of anything that is no good for my health –</P>

food, people, things, situations,</P>

and everything that drew me down and away from myself.</P>

At first I called this attitude a healthy egoism.</P>

today I know it is</P>

'LoVE oF oNESELF'.</P>

当我开始真正爱自己,</P>

我开始远离一切不健康的东西。</P>

不论是饮食和人物,还是事情和环境,</P>

我远离一切让我远离本真的东西。</P>

从前我把这叫做“追求健康的自私自利”,</P>

但今天我明白了,这是</P>

『自爱』。</P>

As I began to love myself</P>

I quit trying to always be right,</P>

and ever since I was wrong less of the time.</P>

today I discovered that is</P>

'modEStY'.</P>

当我开始真正爱自己,</P>

我不再总想着要永远正确,不犯错误。</P>

我今天明白了,这叫做</P>

『谦逊』。</P>

As I began to love myself</P>

I refused to go on living in the past</P>

and worry about the future.</P>

Now, I only live for the moment,</P>

where EVERYthING is happening.</P>

today I live each day, day by day,</P>

and I call it</P>

'pERFEctIoN'.</P>

当我开始真正爱自己,</P>

我不再继续沉溺于过去,</P>

也不再为明天而忧虑,</P>

现在我只活在一切正在发生的当下,</P>

今天,我活在此时此地,</P>

如此日复一日。这就叫</P>

『完美』。</P>

As I began to love myself</P>

I recognized that my mind can disturb me and it can make me sick.</P>

but as I connected it to my heart,</P>

my mind became a valuable ally.</P>

today I call this connection</P>

wISdom oF thE hEARt.</P>

当我开始真正爱自己,</P>

我明白,我的思虑让我变得贫乏和病态,</P>

但当我唤起了心灵的力量,</P>

理智就变成了一个重要的伙伴,</P>

这种组合我称之为,</P>

『心的智慧』。</P>

we no longer need to fear arguments,</P>

confrontations or any kind of problems with ourselves or others.</P>

Even stars collide,</P>

and out of their crashing new worlds are born.</P>

today I know</P>

that is LIFE!</P>

我们无须再害怕自己和他人的分歧,矛盾和问题,</P>

因为即使星星有时也会碰在一起,</P>

形成新的世界,</P>

今天我明白,这就是</P>

『生命』。
