美丽英文之人生哲理 ---人生的五个球之感悟(The Lesson of Five Balls)

背景
American writer James Patterson in his 2001 novel of “Suzanne’s Diary for Nicholas” wrote that,
“Imagine life is a game in which you are juggling five balls. The balls are called work, family, health, friends, and integrity, and you are keeping all of them in the air. But one day you finally come to understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. The other four balls, family, health, friends and integrity, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, nicked, perhaps even shattered. And once you truly understand the lesson of the five balls, you will have the beginnings of balance in your life”.
把生活想象成一个游戏--在空中抛接五个球。这五个球分别是：工作、家庭、健康、友谊和精神(also spirit )。你努力不让它们从空中掉下来。但终有一天你会发现工作是一个橡皮球。如果你将它掉到地上，它还会弹回来。但其它四个球——家庭、健康、朋友和精神都是玻璃球。如果你把任何一个掉到地上，它便会无法挽回地出现磨损、留下疤痕甚至摔得粉碎。一旦懂得了这五个球的道理，你就能保持生活的平衡。

Those lines were also written by Brian G. Dyson (BGD) and he used them at Georgia Tech’s 172nd Commencement Address on September 6, 1991. BGD was the President and CEO of Coca-Cola Enterprise at the time. In his Commencement Address, BGD noted that, “If you drop one of those balls, they will be irrevocably scuffed, damaged, and they will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life”. He then outlined the ways how to strive to balance the life:

How?
怎样做到这一点呢？

1. Do not undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each of us is special.
不要总拿自己与别人攀比而贬低自身的价值。正是因为我们彼此不同，每个人才会各有所长。

2. Do not set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you.
别人认为重要的东西不是你确定目标的依据。只有你自己知道，对你来说什么东西最好。

3. Do not take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as you would your life, for without them, life is meaningless.
切莫把最贴近你内心的东西视为理所当然的事。要像坚守生命一样坚守住它们，因为失去它们，生活就会失去意义。

4. Do not let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future. By living your life one day at a time, you live ALL the days of your life.
不要耽于过去或未来，而让生命从指间悄悄溜走。一次只活一天，活在今***就完整度过生命中的所有岁月。

5. Do not give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
如果还可以付出，就不要放弃。在你停止努力那一刻前，什么都没有真正结束。

6. Do not be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us together.
不要害怕承认自己远不完美。正是这种不完美才让我们彼此需要。 ...

7. Do not be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
不要害害怕遭受风险。只有通过冒险，我们才能学会如何变得勇敢。

8. Do not shut love out of your life by saying it is impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
别说真爱寻而将爱情拒之于生活门外。获得爱的最快捷径是给予爱，失去爱的最快捷径是扼住爱不放手，而守住爱的最佳捷径是让爱插上翅膀。

9. Do not run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going.
莫要匆忙地度过一生，结果忘了自己从何而来，往何而去。

10. Do not forget that a person’s greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.
不要忘记一个人最大的感情需要是被别人认可。

11. Do not be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.
不要害怕学习。知识没有重量：它是一直是便携式的宝藏。

12. Do not use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved.
不要浪费时光或口无遮拦，逝去的时光和说过的话都无法收回。

13.Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.
生活不是一场赛跑，而是应在人生旅途中细细品味的旅程。

14.Yesterday is History. Tomorrow is a Mystery. Today is a gift, and that’s why we call it the Present.
昨天已成历史，明天充满未知，今天是份礼物：这就是我们把“今天”称之为"Present”的原因。

Small corrections:
1. Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well.
2. Promise yourself to be so strong today that nothing can disturb your peace of mind．

Yes, indeed. Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well.
