人生真谛

The True Meaning of Life

我喜欢简朴自然的生活，像那奔流向东的江河，时时唱着欢快之歌；像那飘游四方的云朵，处处跳着轻妙之舞；它们都快乐自在，因为它们拥有自己的空间，独享其趣。江河以奔入大海怀抱为最大幸福；云朵以阅尽人间风光为至高快乐。世间一切都“因缘有定”，全身心投入现在的辛勤耕耘，该来的总会在某个成熟的时刻拜访你，让你沉浸于收获的无限喜悦中。

I enjoy a natural simple life, singing cheerfully like a river running eastward and dancing elegantly like a cloud floating around. River and cloud are carefree, for they alone enjoy themselves in their own space. The river regards reaching the arms of sea as its greatest happiness; the cloud regards appreciating views across the world as its highest enjoyment. Nothing in the world can escape from the law of cause and effect, thus devote yourself to the present labor. What should come will visit you one day and immerse you in the infinite joy of harvest.

我们能把握的只有现在，过去的成为记忆，将来的还是梦想，而且要实现美好的梦想，关键也在于现在的努力创造。领悟这层道理，就该立足现在，带着新奇的眼光全心活在当下的每一瞬间，生活的海洋总会不断涌现美丽浪花，保持纯朴敏感之心，便会感受到世间被人们迟钝眼光忽略的美，整个世界绝不是一幅枯燥乏味的画面。

What we can hold is only the present, for the past has turned into a memory and the future is merely a dream. No beautiful dreams can be fulfilled without present creative work. With this understanding, you should base yourself on the present, live each moment with all your heart and your fresh eyes. Beautiful spoondrifts will spring up in the ocean of life. With a simple and sensitive heart, you can appreciate the beauty neglected by those beef-witted eyes, then the whole world is definitely not a dull picture in your eyes.

生命就像一次长途旅行，其价值只能用你体验生命的深浅来衡量，结局和过程相比，那只是一篇文章的句号，精彩处应在文中体会；许多人执著那个美丽但虚幻的所谓远景目标，没有用心去细细感受沿途的许多美丽风景，等奔赴到目的地，收获的喜悦一瞬间便烟消云散，此时回顾往昔时光，心中并没有几多生动可爱的影像值得回味，仿佛虚度一般，难道不遗憾吗？

Life is like a long journey! Its value can only be measured by how deep you experience your life. Compared to the process, the end is just a full stop of an article, while all beauty should be appreciated within the article. Many people only concern the beautiful but illusory prospect without appreciating various nice views on the way. When they finally reach the destination, their joy will go with the wind in an instant. Looking back on their past time, they have no many lovely images in their hearts which deserve careful aftertaste. Until then, they realize their time has been fooled away, isn't it really a pity?

朋友，请放开你自己，抛开虚幻的目标，全心感受生命时空的每一丝风每一丝雨，这才是生命的真谛！

O my friends, open up your minds! Throw away illusory goals to feel every wind and rain in your life with all your heart. This is the true meaning of life!
