Ralph Waldo Emerson's poem:
一首爱默生的诗:
WHAT IS SUCCESS
Ralph Waldo Emerson
What is success?
To laugh often and love much;
To win the respect of intelligent people
And the affection of children;
To earn the approbation of honest critics
And endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty;
To find the best in others;
To give one’s self;
To leave the world a little better,
Whether by a healthy child,
A garden patch,
Or a redeemed social condition;
To have played and laughed with enthusiasm
And sung with exultation;
To know even one life has breathed easier,
Because you have lived...
This is to have succeeded.
成功的内涵
拉尔夫·沃尔多·爱默生
成功是什么?
笑口常开,爱心永在,
赢得智者的尊重,
孩子们的爱戴;
博得真诚的认可,
容忍损友的背叛;
欣赏美好的东西,
发现别人的可爱。
学会无私地奉献,
给世界增添光彩:
要么培育出健康的孩子,
要么留下花园一块,
亦或是改善社会条件;
尽情娱乐、笑得畅快,
把欢乐的歌唱起来;
甚至知道一个生命活得自在,
因为你的一路走来……
这就是成功的内涵。
