活得快樂的原則：從此刻開始，改變自己過新的生活
god didn't promise days without pain,
laughter without sorrow, sun without rain;
but he did promise strength for the day,
comfort for the tears,
and light for the way.
上主從來都沒有承諾過人生是沒有痛苦的，
只會有快樂而沒有苦惱，
天天都陽光普照，永不下雨。
然而，祂卻承諾給予我們生活的力量，
祂會安慰傷痛的心，祂會指引迷路的人。
disappointments are like road humps,
they slow you down a bit
but you enjoy the smooth road afterwards.
don't stay on the humps too long.
失望就好像路拱一樣，會使人走得慢一點。
但隨之而來的，是更平坦的道路。
請別待在路拱上太久呢！
move on！
永不放棄！
when you feel down because you didn't get what you want,
just sit tight and be happy,
because god is thinking of something better to give you.
when something happens to you, good or bad,
consider what it means.
there's a purpose to life's events,
to teach you how to laugh more or not to cry too hard.
每當你為得不到想要的東西而感到沮喪的時候，
請稍安毋躁，
因為上主總是預留了最好的給你。
不論是好是壞，只要是發生在你身上的，
請用心想一想……
生命中每一件事都有其目的，
而且最后總是叫你感到歡悅，并非傷心。
you can't make someone love you；
all you can do is be someone who can be loved，
the rest is up to the person your worth.
你不能迫使別人喜歡自己。
相反，
你只需成為一個值得別人去愛的人，
其餘的就隨遇而安吧！
the measure of love is when you love without measure.
in life there are very rare chances
that you'll meet the person you love and loves you in return.
so once you have it don't ever let go,
the chance might never come your way again.
衡量愛的唯一方法就是不要去衡量。
人的一生中很難才踫到互相愛慕的對象，
所以，
要是你遇到了這個人，
請千萬要珍惜，
因為機會是可一而不可再的。
it's better to lose your pride to the one you love,
than to lose the one you love because of pride.
we spend too much time looking for the right person to love
or finding fault with those we already love,
when instead we should be perfecting the love we give.
為你所愛的人放下小小的自尊，
總好過為了所謂的自尊而失去所愛的人。
我們花了太多時間去尋尋覓覓，
或在雞蛋裡挑骨頭。
取而代之，
我們應該多花心思去修補自己付出的愛。
when you truly care for someone,
you don't look for faults,
you don't look for answers,
you don't look for mistakes.
instead,
you fight the mistakes,
you accept the faults,
and you overlook the excuses.
只要是真心愛一個人，
你不會計較對方的缺點，
亦不會凡事要求解釋，
更不會在意對方有甚麼過失。
相反，
你會替對方的每一個過失而辯護，
接愛對方所有的缺點，
不再需要任何形式的藉口。
never abandon an old friend.
you will never find one who can take his place.
friendship is like wine;
it gets better as it grows older.
好好珍惜你的老朋友，
因為你會發現沒有任何人可以取代他們。
友誼就好像酒一樣，
愈舊愈醇。
