[00:21.64]We can take the mysterious, hazy future and carve [00:25.25]out of it anything that we can imagine, [00:27.54]just like a sculptor [00:29.19]carves a statue from a shapeless stone. [00:31.59]We are all in the position of the farmer. [00:35.86]If we plant a good seed, [00:37.17]we reap a good harvest. [00:38.70]If our seed is poor and full of weeds, [00:41.21]we reap a useless crop. [00:43.07]If we plant nothing at all, [00:44.82]we harvest nothing at all. [00:46.57]I want the future to be better than the past. [00:49.63]I don’t want it contaminated by the mistakes and errors [00:53.03]with which history is filled. [00:54.88]We should all be concerned about the future [00:57.29]because that is where we will spend the remainder of our lives. [01:00.79]The past is gone and static. [01:02.97]Nothing we can do will change it. [01:04.84]The future is before us and dynamic. [01:07.67]Everything we do will affect it. [01:10.52]Each day will brings with it new frontiers, [01:13.14]in our homes and in our businesses, [01:15.22]if we will only recognize them. [01:17.63]We are just at the beginning of the progress [01:20.47]in every field of human endeavor.

激情晨讀英語美文 第七章 追隨你的夢想:生命的起跑線

     "We are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book whose pages are infinite..."

     I do not know who wrote those words,but I have always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want to make it.We can take the mysterious,hazy future  and carve out of it anything that we can imagine,just as a sculptor carves a statue from a shapeless stone.

     We are all in the position of the farmer.If we plant a good seed,we reap a good harvest.If our seed is poor and full of weeds,we reap a useless crop.If we plant nothing at all,we harvest nothing at all.I want the future to be better than the past.I don't want it contaminated by the mistakes and errors with which history is filled.We should all be concerned about the future because that is where we will spend the remainder of our lives. The past is gone and static.Nothing we can do will change it.The future is before us and dynamic.Everything we do will affect it.Each day brings with it new frontiers, in our homes and in our business, if we will only recognize them.We are just at the beginning of the progress in every field of human endeavor.

     我們所讀到的,不過是一部詩書的開篇部分,而書中所蘊涵的人生哲理卻是無限的......"
     我不知道這句話是誰說的,但它卻時時提醒著我,未來是怎樣的,全由自己來創(chuàng)造.我們可以把充滿神秘且又無法掌控的未來世界按照自己的想象精心構(gòu)思出來,就像雕刻家可以把毫無意境的石頭雕塑成精美的雕像一樣.
     和農(nóng)民一樣,如果我們播下的是優(yōu)良的種子,那么很快就會大獲豐收.但如果我們種下的是劣質(zhì)的種子,且任雜草肆意生長,那么,我們的收成就會比現(xiàn)在更美好.我們不應(yīng)該多想想未來,因為正是它將陪伴我們度過余下的漫漫人生.過去的一切就讓它過去吧.因為我們根本無法改變過去的一切.充滿青春氣息的未來世界正在前方等待著我們.我們現(xiàn)在所做的一切都會影響到未來.每一天,我們都會站在新的起跑線上,無論是在生活中,還是在工作中,只要我們意識到這一點:我們要努力達到每一個人生的既定目標.而現(xiàn)在,一切都只是剛剛開始.
     每一天都是新的,它既不屬于過去,也不屬于未來,它是我們能夠把握的真實存在.不必在意于昨日的光彩,也不必沉湎于過去的遺憾,"一切都只是剛剛開始",把握住了現(xiàn)在,也就把握住了未來.
