I believe there is a person who brings sunshine into your life. That person may have enough to spread around. But if you really have to wait for someone to bring you the sun and give you a good feeling, then you may have to wait a long time.
【翻译】
相信会有一个人把阳光带进你的生活中是可以的。那个人也许会有足够的东西去四处传播。但是,如果你真的要等别人带给你阳光,带给你美好的感受,那你也许要等上很长的时间。

短篇励志英语美文篇1
找寻自己find yourself
who are we? that is the first question. it’s a question that’s almost impossible to answer.
我们到底是谁?这是我们要解答的第一个问题，是一个几乎回答不了的问题
but we all agree that one’s busy or daily self is not quite one’s real self. we’re quite sure that we’ve lost something in the course of just making our living.。
但是我们都同意这一点，那个每天在日常生活中奔忙的自己，并不是我们真实的自己。我们都很清楚，我们在为生计奔波的过程中失去了某些东西。
a crowd is watching a person running about looking for something in a field, and a wise man asks, “what has that person lost?” someone may guess a watch, another a diamond ring. when everyone has guessed, the wise man who like everyone else there has no idea, says, “i’ll tell you one thing for sure. he’s lost some breath.”
当一群人看着一个人在田野中奔跑着寻找某个东西时，智者向他们出了一个谜题：“那个人到底丢失了什么?”有个人认为是一块手表，另一个人认为是一枚钻石戒指。其他人也有不同的答案，智者也不知道那个人丢失了什么，但他却说：“我可以明确地告诉你们一件事，他丢失了一些生命力。”
and no one can deny that he’s right. the point is that we often forget our true selves in pursuit of things that are external1 to us, like a bird forgetting its own danger in pursuit of a mantis, which in turn forgets its own danger in pursuit of some other prey.
没有人认为智者所言是错的。其实我们经常在为生计奔波时忘记了我们自己，就像一只鸟在捕捉螳螂时忘记了自己的安危，相应地，螳螂在捕捉它的猎物时也忘记了自己的安危。
1：思念就像夜里的风，虽然看不到却总在身边绕，回忆是心里的太阳，温暖着每一寸记忆的土壤，分别的日子里，用我的挂念抓紧你的想念，望你万事顺意随心！
2：成功一定有方法，失败一定有原因。成功的人找方法，失败的人找借口。
3：平常心，快乐过：人生短暂，万事但应想得开，随时随地保持心里平衡，相信自己，守住平常心，处变不惊，笑口常开，潇洒走一回，自会快快乐乐地过一生。
4：岁月的流逝，证明着我们在一天天的长大。在成长中，我们成为了好朋友。当世界在变，唯有不变换时，我相信，我们还会回到相遇的起点。
Man's youth is a wonderful thing：it is so full of anguish and of magic and he never comes to know it as it is， until it has gone from him forever. It is the thing he cannot bear to lose， it is the thing whose passing he watches with infinite sorrow and regret， it is the thing whose loss with a sad and secret joy， the thing he would never willingly relive again， could it be restored to him by any magic
O ever youthful O ever weeping——永远年轻，永远热泪盈眶 i had a crush on you——我短暂且热烈的喜欢过你［crush和love之间，有很远的距离，但又似乎有着微妙的联系。前者只是短暂的喜欢，后者是长远的深爱。这也正是这个单词的浪漫所在。］ One of the unspoken things about being an adult is having a favorite burner on the stove.——关于成年，一样不可言说的事就是拥有了偏爱的炉灶。 May the world turn into a sea, and may you and I return to the first sight.——愿世界化为沧海，愿你我归于初见。 Do what makes you happy. Be with who makes you smile. Laugh as much as you breath. Love as long as you live.——做让你开心的事，和让你欢笑的人在一起。笑声要像呼吸一样频繁，爱要和生命一般长久。

Because she would have a chance to bring beauty to this corner of sand…… And this is all she wanted to do - bring a little bit of beauty to this world. 遍地干旱、满目悲凉的沙漠中有朵小花，她独自生长在那里，享受着每一天……她问太阳公公“我什么时候才能长大”太阳公公总是说“要有耐心―― 我每次抚摸你，你都会长大一点……”小花好开心啊，因为她也有机会为沙漠的一隅增添美丽了……这是她毕生的心愿―― 为这个世界增添一丝美丽。 One day the hunter came by - and stepped on her. - She was going to die - and she felt so sad.
