一Don't go for looks；they can deceive. Don't go for wealth；even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. 别倾心于容貌，因为它具有欺骗性，也别倾心于财富，它也会消散，倾心于那个能带给你笑容的人吧，因为一个笑容能使漫漫长夜如白昼般明亮。 二Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose,teach you a lesson,or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become.You never know who these people maybe (possibly your roommate, neighbor, coworker, long lost friend, lover, or even a complete stranger),but when you lock eyes with them,you know at that very moment they will affect your life in some profound way. 有时候，一些人进入你的生命，你马上知道他们是注定要出现的，他们的到来是为了达成某种目的，给你提供教益，帮助你认清自己以及自己想要成为怎样的人，你不会知道这些人是谁（很可能会是你的室友、邻居、同事、失散多年的朋友、爱人，甚至是素未谋面的陌生人），可是当你的目光锁定他们的那一刻，你就知道他们会给你的生命带来深远的影响。 三 Sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful. and unfair at first, but in reflection you find that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realized your potential, strength, willpower, or heart. 有时候，发生在你身上的事情看似可怕、痛苦和不公平，但仔细一想，你就会发现，如果不克服这些障碍，你就不会意识到自己的潜能、力量、意志和决心。 四 Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness, and sheerstupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, whatever they may be,life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless. The people you meet who affect your life,and the success and downfalls you experience, help to create who you are and who you become. 任何事的发生都是有原因的。 没有事情是偶然出现或运气使然。 疾病、伤痛、爱情、与成功失之交臂，以及彻彻底底的糊涂犯错，这些都是你对精神极限的考验。无论这些小小的考验是什么，没有了它们，生命就像是一条不知通往何处的平坦大道，纵然安全舒适，但却了然无趣、毫无意义。 你所遇到的影响你生命的人，你所经历的成功与失败，都有助于塑造和成就你的人生。 五 Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact,they are probably the most poignant and important ones. If someone hurts you, betrays you,or breaks your heart,forgive them,for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious when you open your heart. If someone loves you,love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you,but because in a way, they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things. 即使是不好的经历，也能从中吸取经验。 事实上，这些经验可能是最深刻和最重要的。 如果有人伤害了你，背叛了你，或伤了你的心，原谅他们把，因为他们帮助你理解了信任，让你懂得了在敞开心扉时保持精神是很重要的。 如果有人爱你，你要无条件地爱他们，不仅因为他们爱你，还因为他们教会了你去爱，以及如何敞开你的心扉、放开你的目光。 六There are always some people came to life among some people to leave. Unnecessary grudge, maintain understand it. Because not everything should be interpreted Toutou purely. But also because women are from Venus, men are from Mars.There are always suffering can not seem to explain to others, only those who are around you can understand.There are always emotional, gone, it will not come back.There are always some people, like perennial spoiler, do not explain that they understand.But, anyway, whether today or tomorrow is full of poverty, to remember that the most valuable is the spirit, the soul of the key flashes is appealing.总有一些人来到生命当中，一些人离开。不必要怀恨在心，保持理解吧。因为，不是每件事情都要被解释的透透彻彻。也因为女人来自金星，男人来自火星。总有一些磨难似乎跟别人解释不了，唯有身边的那些人能够懂你。总有一些情感，走过了，就不会再回来了。总有一些人，常年喜欢搅局，不要解释，表示理解。但是，不管怎么样，无论今天是富有还是明天是贫穷，要记得，人最宝贵的是精神，灵魂里的闪烁也是吸引人的关键。 七'Tribulations wanted a glass of wine, not for suffering always come up and share with others, because no one wants to hear your stories. On the dead of night, he would drink it. Tomorrow morning, get up, please voice, full of energy, because you can not copy the first day. Practical action, to become a good servant of God, and the glory of the cross into a witness. Love should have used to restore the real world. The sun shone, you have five fingers outstretched, attempting want to glare through the windows into it? Because we serve God and live, tolerance, the atmosphere, the same people do not remember evil. To face with a wide of heart rebellion.磨难就想一杯美酒，苦难不适合总是拿出来和别人分享，因为，没有人想要听你的那些故事。就着夜深人静的时候，自己将它喝下去。明天早上起床的时候，请神采奕奕，精神饱满，因为，你的第一天无法复制。用实际行动，成为一个神的好仆人，将十字架变成荣耀的见证。用爱来还原应该有的真实世界。阳光照进来的时候，你有没有伸开五指，企图想要遮住强光透进的窗户呢？我们因为服侍神而活着，宽容，大气，同样不记人的恶。拥有宽广的心来面对悖逆。 八 Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from those moments everything that you possibly can for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people that you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Let yourself fall in love, break free, and set your sights high. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, it will be hard for others to believe in you. You can make of your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it with absolutely no regrets. 让每一天都过的有价值。 珍惜生命中的每一刻，并尽你所能地从中取得收获，因为你不会有从头再来的可能。 跟那些你从来没有说过话的人交谈，并注意聆听。 让自己去爱，挣脱束缚，让目光高远。 要昂起头，因为你有权利这么做。 告诉自己，你是一个伟大的人，并相信自己，因为如果你不相信自己，别人就很难相信你。 你可以做任何想做的事来塑造你的人生。 创造你自己的人生，并无怨无悔地去过这一生吧。 九Most impotantly,if you LOVE someone, tell him or her,for you never know what tomorrow may have in store. And learn a lesson in life each day that you live. That's The Story Of Life. 最重要的是，如果你爱某个人，就告诉他/她。因为你不知道明天将会怎样。 活着的每一天里都要有所收获。 这就是生命的故事。生命的故事。 十 The power of loveJackie Lantry is a part-time hospital clerk in Rehoboth, Mass. She and her husband have adopted two girls and two boys from China. When Jackie asked her children what they believed in, they said "family."“It was not therapy, counselors or medications. It did not cost money, require connections or GREat privilege. It was love: just simple, plain, easy to give.” 爱的力量Jackie Lantry是美国麻省利河伯镇的一位医院兼职会计。她和她的丈夫已经收养了两名中国男孩和两名中国女孩。当Jackie问及孩子们的信念时，孩子们异口同声地回答：“家庭”。“治愈和转变孩子，靠的不是医疗，也不是心理咨询，更不是药物。它并不需要花费金钱，也不需要什么社会关系或者特权。只需要爱， 只需要付出简单而平实的爱”Jackie如是说。满意请及时采纳，谢谢！找了好久，望采纳！！！

导语：困难是你最终成功的必经之路。下面是英文心灵鸡汤的好文章，欢迎欣赏。
What is the secret ingredient of tough people that enables them to succeed? Why do they survive the tough times when others are overcome by them? Why do they win when others lose? Why do they soar when others sink?
The answer is very simple. It's all how they perceive their problems. Yes, every living person has problems. A problem-free life is an illusion—a mirage in the desert. Accept that fact.
Every mountain has a peak. Every valley has its low point. Life has its ups and downs, its peaks and its valleys. No one is up all the time, nor are they down all the time. Problems do end. They are all resolved in time.
You may not be able to control the times, but you can compose your response. You can turn your pain into profanity—or into poetry. The choice is up to you. You may not have chosen your tough time, but you can choose how you will react to it. For instance, what is the positive reaction to a terrible financial setback? In this situation would it be the positive reaction to copout and runaway? Escape through alcohol, drug, or suicide No! Such negative reactions only produce greater problems by promising a temporary solution to the pressing problem. The positive solution to a problem may require courage to initiate it. When you control your reaction to the seemingly un-controllable problem of life, then in fact you do control the problem’s effect on you. Your reaction to the problem is the last word! That’s the bottom line. What will you let this problem do to you? It can make you tender or tough. It can make you better or bitter. It all depends on you.
In the final analysis, the tough people who survive the tough times do so because they’ve chosen to react positively to their predicament. Tough times never last, but tough people do. Tough people stick it out. History teaches us that every problem has a lifespan.
No problem is permanent. Storms always give way to the sun. Winter always thaws into springtime. Your storm will pass. Your winter will thaw. Your problem will be solved.

坚韧不拔的人成功的秘诀是什么?为什么他们能挺过艰难的时刻，而其他人却被困难所压倒?为什么成功的是他们，而失败的是其他人?为什么他们能够一飞冲天，而其他人会深陷泥沼?
答案很简单，全看他们是如何看待自己面临的难题。没错，每个人都有不同的困难。摆脱难题困扰的人生只能是一个幻想，就像是沙漠中的海市蜃楼。还是接受这个事实吧!
每一座山都有巅峰，每一个峡谷都有谷底。人生也有跌宕起伏，高潮和低谷。没有人一生都能平步青云，也没有人一生都时乖命蹇。难题总有了结的一天。随着时间的推移，一切难题都会迎刃而解。
也许,你不能控制时局，但是你能够冷静应对。你既可以把痛苦转换为亵渎神灵的不敬言语，也可以赋予之以诗意，这全在于你自己的选择。时运不济的你或许无从选择,但是你可以选择应对的方略。比如，遭遇一次严重的经济挫折后，究竞怎么做才称得上积极应对呢?在这种情况下，放弃后潜逃?借酒浇愁?吸毒麻醉?抑或自杀?这样的逃避是积极应对吗?当然不是!这样一些消极的反应似乎暂时解决了迫在眉睫的难题,但事实上只会招致更棘手的难题。积极的应对一切困难需要鼓起勇气着手去解决。面对人生中看似无法控制的难题，当你能够控制自己的应对，那么，事实上，你就控制了难题对你的影响。你对难题的应对是至关重要的、最根本的。难题能对你产生什么样的影响呢?它可以使你脆弱，也可以使你坚强;它可以使你升华，也可以使你痛苦。全在于你自己。
归根结底，坚韧的人之所以能挺过艰难的岁月，是因为他们选择积极地去应对困境。艰难的岁月不会没完没了，但是，坚韧的人会始终不懈，坚持到底。历史告诉我们，每一个难题都有始有终。
任何难题都不会永远存在。暴风雨过后一定是灿烂的阳光。严冬必然会化为春光。你的暴风雨也会过去，你的冬天也会回暖。你的难题终将解。
if you want to understand adversity, take two identical acorns from the same oak tree and plant them in two different locations. plant the first in the middle of a dense forest, and the other on a hill by itself.
如果你想理解什么是逆境，就去拿两颗从同一棵树上摘下来年龄相同的橡树果，并且把它们种到不同的地方。第一颗种在浓密的树林当中，而另外一颗则单独种在一座山上。
here's what will happen. the oak standing on a hillside is exposed to every storm and gale. as a result its roots plunge deep into the earth and spread in every direction, even wrapping themselves around giant boulders. at times it may seem the tree isn't growing fast enough—but the growth is happening underground. it's as if the roots know they must ported the tree from the threatening elements.
事情的结果便是这样。那颗长在山上的橡树经历了大风大雨，结果它的根深深地扎进了泥土中间，并不断向四周扩张，甚至把自己置身于巨大的石块当中。有时它可能看起来长的不是很快，但这时它却在地下悄悄生长着，好像它的根知道自己必须快速生长来保护树木免受自然危害的影响。
what about the acorn planted in the forest? it becomes a weak, frail sapling. and since it is protected by its neighbors, the little oak doesn't sense the need to spread its roots for support.
而种在树丛中的橡树果是什么样子的呢?它变成了一棵虚弱的`小树苗。因为有周围树丛的保护，所以这棵小树苗便不知道要把自己的根扎得更深。
don't be afraid of adversity! welcome it! that's your surefire route to ultimate success.
不要害怕困难!要欢迎它!困难是你最终成功的必经之路。
I will know that only those with inferior ability can always be at their best ，and I am not inferior.There will be days when I must IN THE WORLD constantly struggle against forces which would tear me down，Those such sa despair and sadness are simple to recognize but there are others which approach with a smile and the hand of friendship and they can slso destroy me.Against them，too.I must never relinquish control.
我将明白只有低能者才会江郎才尽，我并非低能者。我必须不断对抗那些企图摧垮我得力量。失望与悲伤一眼就会被识破，而其他许多敌人是不易察觉的，它们往往面带微笑，伸出友谊之手，却随时有可能将我们摧垮。对它们，我们永远不能放松警惕。
And with this new knowledge I will also understand and recognize the moods of him on whom i call， I will make allowances for his anger and irritation of today for he knows not the secret of controlling his mind.i can withstand him arrows and insults for now I know that tomorrow he will change and be a joy to approach.
有了这项新本领，我也更能体察别人的情绪变化。我宽容怒气冲冲的人，因为他尚未懂得控制自己的情绪，我可以忍受他的指责和辱骂，因为我知道明天他会改变，重新变得随和。
No longer will I judge a man on one meeting;no longer will i fail to call again tomorrow on he who meets me with hate today.this day he will not buy gold chariots for a penny，yet tomorrow he would exchange his home for a tree.My knowledge of this secret will be my key to great wealth.
我不再只凭一面之交来判断一个人，也不再因他今日的可恶而明日不给他打电话。今天不肯花一分钱买金蓬马车的人，明天他也许会用全部家当换一颗树苗。知道了这个秘密，我可以获得极大的财富。
Henceforth I will recognize and identify the mystery of moods in all mankind，and in me.From this moment I am prepared to control whatever personality awakes in me each day.I will master my moods through positive action and when I master my moods I will control my destiny.
我从此领悟到人类和我自己情绪变化的奥秘。对于自己千变万化的个性，我不在听之任之，我将积极主动的控制情绪，从而掌握自己的命运。
I will become master of myself.
我将成为自己的主人。

1. Life Struggle----生命的拼搏 对强者而言，磨难犹如刀剑，使他愈见锋芒，诚如孟子所言：“天将降大任于斯人也，必先苦其心志，劳其筋骨„„”不经过磨难的生活，日子未免过得乏味；不经过磨难的命运，人生便显得苍白。就生命而言，总是从平坦中获得的效益少，从磨难中获得的教益深。 Once upon a time in a land far far away, there was a wonderful old man who loved everything. Animals, spiders, insects... One day while walking through the woods the nice old man found a cocoon of a butterfly. He took it home. A few days later, a small opening appeared; he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no farther. Then the man decided to help the butterfly, so he took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then emerged easily. But it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings. The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body, which would contract in time. Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings. It never was able to fly. What the man in his kindness and haste did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were Nature's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon. Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If we were allowed to go through our life without any obstacles, it would cripple us. We would not be as strong as what we could have been. And we could never fly. 从前，在一个非常非常遥远的国度，有一位心地善良的老人。他喜爱一切东西，动物啦、蜘蛛啦、昆虫啦。 一天，这位善良的老人在树林里散步的时候，发现了一个蝴蝶的茧。他把茧带回了家。 几天后，茧裂开了一道小缝。老人几小时地坐在那里，看着蝴蝶挣扎着让自己的身体从小缝中挤出来。后来，蝴蝶破茧好象停了下来，没有什么进展了。看来蝴蝶好象是撑到了最后，再也不可能前进了。 看到这里，老人决定帮助蝴蝶。于是他找出一把剪刀，把茧剩余的部分剪破了。 这样，蝴蝶就轻易地从茧中脱出来了。 但是，蝴蝶的身子肿胀着，翅膀又小又皱。老人继续观察着蝴蝶，因为他期望着这样一个时刻的到来：蝴蝶的翅膀会变大，大到能支持它的身体，而蝴蝶的身体届时也会缩小。可是什么也没有发生。事实上，这只蝴蝶的余生中就只能拖着臃肿的身体和萎缩的翅膀爬来爬去了。 它永远也不能飞起来了。 在好心和匆忙间，老人并不理解，蝴蝶破茧而出时需要的那种束缚和挣扎其实是大自然用来将蝴蝶的体液挤到翅膀中的方法，这样，蝴蝶一旦能从茧中脱出，就能准备好飞翔了。 有时候，挣扎正是我们生活中所需要的。如果我们能得以毫无障碍地走过一生，这会使我们软弱。我们就不可能变得强壮。 重要的是，我们就不可能腾飞。 2．坚持你的梦想 I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch in San Sedro. He has let me use his house to put on fund-raising events to raise money for youth at risk programs. I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch in San Sedro. He has let me use his house to put on fund-raising events to raise money for youth at risk programs. The last time I was there he introduced me by saying, "I want to tell you why I let Jack use my house. It all goes back to a story about a young man who was the son of an itinerant horse trainer who would go from farm and ranch-to-ranch, training horses. As a result, the boy's high school career was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up. "That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of someday owning a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream in great detail and he even drew a diagram of a 200-acre ranch, showing the location of all the buildings, the stables and the track. Then he drew a detailed floor plan for a 4,000-square-foot house that would sit on the 200-acre dream ranch. "He put a great deal of his heart into the project and the next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a note that read, 'See me after class.' "The boy with the dream went to see the teacher after class and asked, 'Why did I receive an F?' "The teacher said, 'this is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you. You have no money. You come from an itinerant family. You have no resources. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for the original breeding stock and later you'll have to pay large stud fees. There's no way you could ever do it.' Then the teacher added, 'If you will rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade.' "The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, 'Look, son, you have to make up your own mind on this However, I think it is a very important decision for you.' "Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy turned in the same paper, making no changes at all. He stated, 'You can keep the F and I'll keep my dream.'" Monty then turned to the assembled group and said, "I tell you this story because you are sitting in my 4,000-square-foot house in the middle of my 200-acre horse ranch. I still have that school paper framed over the fireplace." He added, "The best part of the story is that two summers ago that same school-teacher brought 30 kids to camp out on my ranch for a week." When the teacher was leaving, he said, 'Look, Monty, I can tell you this now. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream stealer. During those years I stole a lot of kids' dreams. Fortunately you had enough gumption not to give up on yours.'" Don't let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what. Questions: 1.Who told Monty to keep his dream? 2.What's Monty's dream? Does it come true? 3．人生絮语：爱在心里成长 Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift. When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back! Don't expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart but if it doesn't, be content it grew in yours. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile. 中文： 或许是上帝的安排，在最终找到知音之前，我们总要遇到一些不尽如意的人，只有这样，我们才能对知音这份礼物充满感激之情。 一道幸福之门关闭时，另一扇就会打开。我们经常太多太多地只看见关闭的门，而对开

Make one by putting 5 pounds or so of chicken pieces in a pot with enough cold water to cover. Bring it to a boil, a half-hour or so. Then add a onion, a carrot put them all for three hours, adding enough water to keep everything below the surface. and the last step, you need some salt. Now ,you have a nice chicken soup.
