WHAT IS SUCCESS

成功的内涵

by 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 oneself;

成功是什麼?

笑口常開,愛心永在,

赢得智者的尊重,

孩子們的愛戴;

博得真誠的認可,

容忍損友的背叛;

欣賞美好的東西,

發現别人的可愛。

學會無私地奉獻。

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.

給世界增添光彩:

要麼培育出健康的孩子,

要麼留下花園一塊,

亦或是改善社會條件;

盡情娛樂、笑得暢快,

把歡樂的歌唱起來;

甚至知道一個生命活得自在,

因為你的一路走來……

這就是成功的内涵。
