e lost or misspent。 My belief in the hereafter is wrapped in the intangible but stubborn thoughts of a layman。 Very likely I would get lost in trying to describe or defend; by cold logic; my belief in God but nobody could argue me out of it。

最成功的投资(2)

I have e to believe that I owe life as much as it owns me; and I suppose that explains the fine satisfaction I get out of endeavoring to do a job to the best of what ability I have; and out of helping somebody else。

As a kid I used to ride a rake in the hayfields。 I got a tremendous kick out of trying to sweep every field clean as a whistle。 Here I made a surprising discovery: that there could be actual enjoyment in the exercise of thoroughness and responsibility; that duty didn’t have to be a drudge。

I don’t know exactly why; but I like to do things for other people。 Not only family responsibilities; work on a hospital board and various church organizations but also the most inconsequential things that might hardly seem worth the time。 My office happens to be on Independence Square and now and then I have occasion to direct a tourist to the Liberty Bell or fill him in on a little of the history of Philadelphia。 The tourist doesn’t seem to mind and it makes me feel good。 I’m afraid I’m not very profound。 I have tried to prehend why something so simple and so sound as the Golden Rule is so often forgotten or held in disrepute。 I can only say…and I say this quite selfishly…that I have found it a good investment。 It has paid me a very high return; undoubtedly more than I deserve。

在思考中成长

埃莉诺?罗斯福

我很难用语言来形容我的信仰是什么,以及它们对我的人生起着怎样的作用。我想我很幸运,出生在一个虔诚地信仰宗教的家庭。但我们对宗教的谈论并不多。在每个人心中都或多或少有着某些信仰,以及巩固他们自身力量所需的某些方式,而对上帝的信仰以及对祈祷的了解正是这些力量的源泉。

然而,在祖母身边长大的我,随着年龄的增长,对她认为理所当然的事情产生了诸多疑问。因此,我坚决不让孩子接触这些东西,以至于感觉自己似乎有些过于苛刻。直到有一次丈夫劝我说,你儿时也学过那些,对你并无害处,为何不让孩子们接触呢?等他们长大了,自然就会独立去思考这些事情了。

他的话让我觉得,也许我们每个人都应该这样做,应该独立思考我们该信仰什么、如何将信仰作为生活的准则。于是,我得出了这样的结论,人在一生中必须尽自己所能做好自己。

我不知道自己对未来的生活是否充满信心。但我相信,我们现在所经历的一切一定是有价值的,因此这其中自有它的道理。并且有些事也必然会发生。至于这些事将会如何发生,是我无法决定的。不过我敢肯定,一定会有未来。但是,是怎样的未来,我不得而知。我觉得这并不重要,因为不管未来怎样,我们都必须面对,就像我们必须面对生活中发生的任何事一样。尽自己最大的努力去做才是真正重要的。也许你没有足够的能力,去施舍,去帮助他人,或者维持自己的生活,但只要你能尽自己最大的努力,你就能完成使命,实现自己的人生价值。

因此,不为未来担忧,也不担心下一刻会发生什么,就是我一直努力遵循的人生法则。我认为自己是一个比较相信宿命的人。你必须接受发生的任何事,勇敢地面对它,做到倾尽全力才是最重要的。

尽自己最大的努力去做才是真正重要的,即使你没有金钱,没有能力,但是有心去做就已经足够了。Growth that Starts from Thinking

Eleanor Roosevelt

It seems to me a very difficult thing to put into words the beliefs we hold and what they make you do in your life。 I think I was fortunate because I grew up in a family where there was a very deep religious feeling。 I don’t think it was spoken of a great deal。 It was more or less taken for granted that everybody held certain beliefs and needed certain reinforcements1 of their own strength and that came through your belief in God and your knowledge of prayer2。

But as I grew older I questioned a great many of the things that I knew very well my grandmother who had brought me up had taken for granted。 And I think I might have been quite a difficult person to live with if it hadn’t been for the fact that my husband once said it didn’t do you any harm to learn those things; so why not let your children learn them? When they grow up they’ll think things out for themselves。

And that gave me a feeling that perhaps that’s what we all must do—think out for ourselves what we could believe and how we could live by it。 And so I came to the conclusion3 that you had to use this life to develop the very best that you could develop。

I don’t know whether I believe in a future life。 I believe that all that you go through here must have some value; therefore there must be some reason。 And there must be some “going on”。 How exactly that happens I’ve never been able to decide。 There is a future—that I’m sure of。 But how; that I don’t know。 And I came to feel that it didn’t really matter very much because whatever the future held you’d have to face it when you came to it; just as whatever life holds you have to face it in exactly the same way。 And the important thing was that you never let down doing the best that you were able to do—it might be poor because you might not have very much within you to give; or to help other people with; or to live your life with。 But as long as you did the very best that you were able to do; then that was what you were put here to do and that was what you were acplishing by being here。

And so I have tried to follow that out—and not to worry about the future or what was going to happen。 I think I am pretty much of a fatalist。 You have to accept whatever es and the only important thing is that you meet it with courage and with the best that you have to give。

如果

拉迪亚德?吉卜林

如果所有人都毫无缘由地指责你,你仍能保持清醒的头脑;如果所有人都质疑你,你仍能相信自己,甚至对于他们的质疑宽容以待;如果你能等待,乐此不疲;或者,遭人欺骗,但并不因此去欺骗别人;或者,遭人憎恨,却不因此怨天尤人,既不过度乐观,也不过度自大。

如果你有梦想,却不让梦想左右你的思想;如果你有思想,却不让思想替代你的行动;如果你能同等地对待胜利与困苦;如果你能容忍你所讲的事实被坏人扭曲并欺骗愚人,或是看到自己付出一生心血的物品损坏后,依然能弯下腰去,用磨破的工具改造它们。

如果你能将自己所有的胜利孤注一掷,即使是失去全部,也可以毫无怨言,并能从头开始;如果你在他人离世后,还能强制自己鼓起勇气、集中精力坚持工作,并且,当你一无所有时,还能跟随意志说:“坚持!”

如果你谦恭地与平凡之人交谈,或是与君王散步时也不表现出恭维之态;如果敌人和挚友都不能伤害你;如果所有人都有用于你,却又不太重要;如果你能用60秒的跑步时间来弥补不可原谅的一分钟,你就拥有了整个世界和世间的一切,并且——更重要的是——我的孩子,你将会成为一个真正的男子汉!

■ 心灵小语

如果我们都以一颗最纯洁的心屹立于世间,坚定信念,正直做人,就能勇敢地面对自己的挫败,正视自己获得的成功。要知道,简朴、内敛的生活对每个人都是有益的。
