彩虹總在風雨后
Every living person has problems.
What are the secrets that enable tough people 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 fly when others sink?
The answer is very simple. It’s all in the way they treat their problems. Yes, every living person has problems. A problem-free life is a fantasy —a mirage in the desert. Everyone should accept that fact.
Every mountain has a peak. Every valley has its base. 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 will end. They will all be resolved in time.
You may not be able to control the times, but you can decide your response. You can turn your pain into a curse or into poetry. The choice is up to you. You may not have chosen the tough times, but you can choose how you deal with them. The positive solution to a problem may require courage. Problems can make you tender or tough, better or bitter. It all depends on you.
No problem lasts forever. Storms always give way to the sun. Winter always thaws into springtime. Your storm will pass. Your winter will thaw. Your problems will be solved.

彩虹總在風雨后
每個人都有自己的難處。
堅忍不拔的人成功的秘訣是什么?為什么別人都被困難打敗而他們卻能挺過艱難的時刻?為什么別人輸了,他們卻能贏?為什么別人往下沉,他們卻能高高飛起?
答案很簡單。這全在于他們處理這些問題的方式。沒錯,每個人都有自己的難處。無憂無慮的生活都是幻想——就像沙漠里的海市蜃樓。每個人都應該接受這個事實。
每一座高山都有頂峰,每個峽谷都有谷底。人生中有起有伏,有頂峰也有低谷。沒人可以永遠居高不下,也沒有人會一直倒霉到底。問題終會結(jié)束,一切難題都會及時迎刃而解。
雖然你不可能掌控時勢,但是你有可以決定怎樣回應。發(fā)泄你的傷痛,你可以借助臟話,也可以借助詩歌,這全在于你如何選擇。時運不濟的你雖然沒有選擇這樣的處境,但是你可以選擇如何應對。要積極解決一個難題需要勇氣。困難可以讓你變得脆弱,讓可以讓你變得堅強,它可以使你變得完善,也可以使你變得痛苦,這全看你如何表現(xiàn)。
艱難的歲月不會沒完沒了。風雨總是要讓位給明媚陽光。嚴冬必將化為春光。你遇上的暴風雨總會過去。你人生的冬季總會回暖。你面臨的難題總將解決。
