　　：握緊我的手

　　I'm not sure when I first fell in love with you... I guess it could have been as early as that first time we held each other, or the first time I realized that you kind of liked me, too.

　　I'm not sure; I just remember thinking of you more and more and getting less and less done in the process!

　　I remember wanting you to stay so badly - and being so thrilled at the thought.

　　I remember praying that it was you whenever the phone would ring, but at the same time hoping it wasn't; because I didn't know how in the world I was going to sound romantic and impressive when what I felt was anxious and tongue-tied.

　　Sometimes it still amazes me - how I get so anxious and thrilled and thoughtful about you; I guess maybe it's because I just keep falling wonderfully in love with you... over and over again.

　　：The Way to Success

　　Inevitably, we will meet a lot of crossings on the way of our lives. How to choose? The brewer's son, Jim Koch, endows***賦予*** it novel thoughts.

　　When Jim was a teenager, his father did everything he could to dissuade***勸阻*** him from becoming a brewer, for his father's father and grandfather all spent their lives brewing beers.

　　So he studied hard and went to Harvard to study law and business simultaneously. In his second year, he dropped out for he felt strongly that one cannot wait till 65 to do what he wants in life. He became an instructor of the wilderness-education program..

　　After over three years, he went back, finished Harvard and got a highly paid job at the Boston Consulting Group, where he stayed for five years. Still he was haunted by doubt, "Is this what I want to be doing when I am 50?"

　　He noticed that Americans pay good money for inferior beer. He thought why not to make good beer for Americans. Finally, he quitted his job and became a successful beer brewer.

　　As we all know, success is equal to talent plus effort ***the former takes only 1 percent while the latter 99percent***. However, in this story, success is endowed with new meanings. To try to find what you are interested in and activate it is that I learned from Jim. Everyone should introspect himself from time to time like Jim, especially after he was steadied in one position. "Feeling of impending crisis" is the essential equipment of a social man. One could not be suitable for a job in his whole life. For example, a man whose major is computer must keep learning as he works, for computer may change in one second. It is also true for other kinds of knowledge or techniques. Since one will become incompetent in his job, there are two ways which people usually choose: one is to try to improve himself to catch up with others still in this job; the other is to quit this job, and then find another one he is interested in. Both of them are meaningful only if the job is what one is interested in.

　　However, in our society, there are many people who work not for themselves, but for money, status, family and so on. If they find a job just like Jim, they will be inhibited in the thought of the high salary and the glorious prospect of the job without thinking of their interests. Then, what has caused it? Maybe Chinese education teaches us more on the aspect of getting a higher degree and earning more money than that of trying to find what we are interested in. Take me for example, I have chosen my major not according to my own interests, but in agreement with what kind of majors the society need. Although, as a diligent***勤勉的*** girl, I know how to get a high mark in any subject, yet I feel at a loss towards my future.

　　I have heard a lecture made by an Internet manager who was successful in designing pictures on Internet. He didn't major in computer. He liked drawing. His wife was a skillful computer operator. Once he found the pictures on Internet, an idea sprouted out: "Why couldn't I draw pictures on the computer?" His wife quite supported his idea, and helped him to learn computer knowledge. Finally, he succeeded. In the end of the lecture, he said: "If you have an interest, and endow it activated meaning, you will be successful."

　　What is the meaning of "activated"? Only having interests is not enough. Jim became a brewer not like his father and grandfather, for he improved the quality of the beer, and was brave to promote sale of the new brand beer. That is, he didn't stay in the same place where his father stayed. He applied his wisdom into the undertaking, and brought about his dreams. So "activated" means to put one's distinctive ideas in the enterprise of his interest, and use strength to prove its value. Therefore, we should not only find our interests, but also make them activated, then we will, someday, stand on the top of success.

　　Life is very long, so don't rush to make decisions. Find your interest, and activated it. Life will favor everybody.

　　：生命的平衡

　　Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling five balls in the air. You name them: work, family, health, friends, and spirit, and you're keeping all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls–family, health, friends, and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably***不能取消地*** scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged, or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life.

　　How? Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each of us is special. Don't set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you.

　　Dot take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as you would your life, for without them, life is meaningless. Don't le t 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. Don't give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.

　　Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us together. Don't be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn to be brave. Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's 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.

　　Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going. Don't forget that a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated. Don't use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved. Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.
