勵志的英語哲理美文精選篇一：舍與得

　　There once was a master who went to india. in those times, we didn't have the communications or airplanes or many kinds of transportation that we do now. so the master went to india on foot. he had never been to india before; perhaps he came from persia. and when he got there, he saw a lot of fruit. in india they have plenty of fruit to sell, but much of it is expensive because they can't grow much due to the water situation. so he saw one basket, a big basket of some very red, long fruit. and it was the cheapest in the shop, not expensive at all.

　　從前有一位師父，他到印度去，那時候因為交通不發達，沒有飛機，不像現在一樣有很多交通工具，所以這位師父就步行去印度。他有可能是波斯人，以前沒去過印度。他到印度時，看見許許多多的水果。在印度，有時因為缺水的緣故，水果產量不多，許多小店雖然擺滿了水果，但多半都很貴。那位師父發現有個大籃子里面裝著一種紅色長條形的水果，這種水果的價格最便宜，一點都不貴.

　　So he went up and asked, "how much per kilo?" and the shopkeeper said, "two rupees." two rupees in india is nothing; it's like dirt. so he bought a whole kilogram of the fruit and started eating it. but after he ate some of it: oh, my god! his eyes watered, his mouth watered and burned, his eyes were burning, his head was burning and his face became red. as he coughed and choked and gasped for breath, he jumped up and down, saying, "ah! ah! ah!"

　　他就走過去詢問：“這個一公斤要多少錢?”小販回答：“兩盧比。”兩盧比在印度根本不算什么，像塵土一樣不值錢，于是他就整整買了一公斤，然后開始吃。 吃了幾口之后，這位師父就眼淚、口水齊流，眼睛發紅，嘴巴辣得像著火一樣，整個頭好像要燒起來，他又咳又嗆，滿臉通紅地喘不過氣來，在那里邊跳邊叫：“啊!啊!啊!”

　　But he still continued to eat the fruit! some people who were looking at him shook their heads and said, "you're crazy, man. those are chilies! you can't eat so many; they're not good for you! people use them as a condiment, but only a little bit to put into food for taste. you can't just eat them by the handful like that; they're not fruit!" so the stupid master said, "no, i can't stop! i paid money for them, and now i'll eat them. it's my money!"

　　不過他還是繼續吃!有人看到他這樣子后，就搖搖頭說：“老兄，你是腦袋壞掉啦?這是辣椒耶!不能吃那么多，這樣對你不好。辣椒是用來調味的，煮菜時每次只放一點點在食物里增加味道。這個不是水果，不能這樣整把拿起來吃啊!”那位笨師父說：“不行，我已經花錢買了，就要把它吃完，這可都是錢哪!”

　　And you think that master was stupid, right? similarly, we sometimes do a lot of things like that. we invest money, time or effort in a relationship, business or job. and even though it's been a long time, bitter experience tells us it won't work, and we know there's no more hope that things will change in the future - this we definitely know by intuition - we still continue just because we've invested money, time, effort and love into it. if so, we're kaput in the brain. just like the man who ate the chilies and suffered so much but couldn't stop because he didn't want to waste the money he'd paid.

　　你們覺得這位師父很笨，是嗎?其實我們有時候也做很多類似的傻事。有時候我們在某些感情或事業工作上，投入了金錢、時間和心力，經過長期的經營之后，我們從慘痛的經驗中知道行不通，直覺也很清楚未來不會有任何轉機，但我們還是舍不得放棄，因為已經投入了金錢、時間、心力和感情在里面。像這種情形，表示說我們頭腦壞掉，就像那個吃辣椒的人一樣，明明已經那么痛苦了，還是不肯停止，只因為不想白白浪費已經付出的錢。

　　So even if you've lost something, let it go and move on. that's better than continuing to lose.

　　就算你會有所損失，還是要放下，然后繼續前進!這樣總比一直損失下去來得好。

勵志的英語哲理美文精選篇二：擁有今天

　　Today Is All We Have

　　The new day is here, and so are you! Now that we've started this new day, I hope that you're ready to give your best to it, and to enjoy it for all that it's worth!

　　新的一天開始了，你也要開始一天的忙碌了。希望你已經準備好全力以赴，充實而快樂地生活在今天。

　　Remember today that you are alive.

　　記住今天你擁有生命!

　　Sometimes we tend to forget that you have a purpose that is all your own, no one else is you. You have dreams and hopes and desires. Listen to your heart for a while.

　　有時我們似乎會忘記我們自己獨有的生活目標，我們會忘記自我。每個人都有夢想，希望和愿望。有時去傾聽一下你內心的召喚。

　　Remember today all the blessings you have: There's beauty in every direction you look, enjoy the abundance that is already yours, the world is a wonderful place and you're here.

　　記住今天你擁有所有的祝福：美存在于你所注視過的每個角落，享受你內心已有的充實，這是一個美麗的世界，你生活在這里。

　　記住今天你因奉獻而有所得：你的世界是你內心的一面鏡子，當你給予愛時，你才擁有愛。

　　Remember today that life is creation: As long as you live you can always contribute your own special voice.

　　記住今天生活就是去創造：只要你擁有生命，你可以永遠奉獻你那一份力量。

　　Remember today is a special time; make the best of it while you can.

　　記住今天是一個特殊的日子，盡你所能努力去創造吧!

勵志的英語哲理美文精選篇三：時間銀行

　　Time Is a Bank

　　Everyone has a bank. Its name is TIME. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest to good purpose. It carries over no balance. It allows no overdraft.

　　每個人都有一個銀行，它的名字叫"時間"。每天早晨，它在你的帳戶里存入86,400秒鐘。不管你是否很好地利用了這筆時間，每天晚上它會照例把這筆時間作為遺失注銷。它沒有設置余額，也不允許透支。

　　Each day it opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the records of the day. If you fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours.

　　每天它會為你開一個新帳戶，每晚它會把該天的記錄全部刪除。如果你沒有好好地利用當天的這筆時間，那么損失由你自己承擔。

　　There is no going back. There is no drawing against the "tomorrow". You must live in the present on today's deposits. Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in health, happiness and success! The clock is running. Make the most of today: "Seize the day!"

　　沒有回頭路，也不能向"明天"借時間。你必須以今天的時間"存款"為基礎生活在現在。有效地投資這筆時間以便從中獲取有關健康，快樂及成功最大的收益。時鐘正在旋轉。好好地利用今天："抓住每一天!"

　　So, you see, time is important, make the most of it. After all, life is either a daring adventure or nothing!

　　你看，時間挺重要的吧，一定要好好利用它。畢竟，生活要么是大膽的嘗試，要么就什么都沒有。

　　Treasure every moment that you have! And treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to have your time. And remember time waits for none.

　　珍惜你所擁有的每一分鐘!你要更加珍惜它，因為你與某個特殊的朋友一起在分享它，這位朋友特殊到擁有你的時間。記住：時間不等人。
