英语励志美文带翻译：一种无私的自私

A

sort

of

unselfish

selfishness

by WARD GREENE

When

a

man

is

ten,

he

has

a

boy's

faith

in

almost

everthing: even Santa Claus is a belief he is not quite ready to

give up so long as there is a chance the old gentleman may

really

live and

deliver. When

a man

is twenty,

he

is closer

to

compete

disillusion

and

stronger

conviction

than

he

will

probably ever be in his life.

This is the age of atheists and agnostics; it is also the age

of

martyrs.

Jesus

Christ

must

have

been

a

very

young

man

when

he

died

on

the

cross;

Joan

of

Arc,

they

say,

was

only

nineteen

as

the

flames

consumed

her.

It

is

in

the

later

years---oh, anywhere from thirty to fifty---that a man at some

time

stands

with

the

tatters

of

his

hopes

and

dreams

fallen

from

him

and

asks

himself:"What,

indeed,

do

i

believe?"

1

He is very apt,

then, to cling

to the words

of

other men

who have written for him the shadow signposts that come as

anything

to poiting

pathways

he found

best

in the past and

roads

he

will

trust

on

the

way

ahead.

These

words

may

be

mere

copybook

maxims:

that

honesty

is

the

best

policy,

or

haste makes waste. They may be alone from Shakespeare---

"To

thine

own

self

be

true"---or

from

the

bible---"All

things

whatsoever

ye

would

that

men

should do to you, do ye even so to them"---or from the

poets"

i

myself

am

Heaven

and

Hell".

They

may

seem

a

sort

of

hodgepodge

in

a

man's

mind,

yet

they

can make a pattern not inconsistent and not weak.

So

if

i

believe

that

i

myself

am

Heaven

and

Hell,

that

anything

less

than

honesty

to

myself

and

others

is

a

boomerang on them and me; if my translation of the Golden

Rule

is

simple

acts

of

kindness

and

understanding

and

compassion, practiced in the hope that they will be shown to

me,

then

i

have

a

way

of

life

that

is

a

sort

of

unselfish

selfishness. The bald statement may sound cynical, but if i can

follow that way, i shall not be too unhappy here and i may face

death with regret but an untroubled face and a stout heart.

But

there

are

blocks

and

pitfalls

in

a

way

of

life,

even

2

assuming that a man can adhere to it steadfastly despite his

own

inclinations

to

deviate.

These

obstacles

are

the

work

other

men

who

adhere

to

other

ways.

Hence

kindness

and

compassion are not enough.

A man, i believe, must have courage and fortitude and a

burning sense of justice, too. There are times we should turn

the

other

cheek,

but

there are

likewise

times

when

we

must

fight

the

good

fight. When?

Well,

if

a

fellow

can't

find

the answer on the signposts or in his heart, i guess he has just

got to pray.

I

believe

that

everyone

wants

to

love

and

be

loved

and

that happiness stems from a facing and acceptance of self that

allows you to give and receive love.

我相信，爱与被爱是每个人的渴望。一个人是否幸福，关 键在于

他是否拥有爱并能够接受爱。

Some

think

of

love

as

a

passionate,

hungry,

dramatic

feeling, all consuming in intensity and desire. As I see it, this is,

rather, immature love: it is a demand on others, not a giving of

3

oneself. Mature love, the love that brings happiness, flows out

of

an

inner

fullness,

and

accepts,

understands

and

is

tender

toward the other person. It does not ask to be served but only

where it may serve.

在有些人看来，

爱就是一种充满活力、

渴望且极富戏剧性的情感，

是占有一切的激情与欲望。而我认为，这种爱 是极不成熟的爱：它是

向他人的索求，而不是奉献。只有成熟的爱才能带来幸福，它是内 心

真挚情感的流露，能够接受并理解他人，给予对方温柔与体贴。它不

< br>索求服务，而是处处提供服务。

Six

years

ago

I

could

hardly

breathe

because

of

acute

sinus. My stomach was always upset and full of queasiness and

I

had

trouble

sleeping,

even

though

I

felt

exhausted

all

the

time.

In

desperation,

after

doctors

who

treated

the

physical

symptoms failed to ease the pain, I tried psychoanalysis. I was

lucky to find a wise, compassionate man who showed me what

it meant to be able to trust myself and others.

6

年前，由于身患急性鼻窦炎，我几乎难以呼吸。胃部也常感不

适，易恶心呕吐。

失眠问题也一直困扰着我，即使我感到疲惫不堪却

依然辗转难眠。可是 ，医生对我的病症所做的治疗却毫不奏效，我的

痛苦丝毫未减。绝望中，我尝试了心理疗 法。很幸运的是，我找到了

一位博学、热情的医生，他让我懂得了，能够相信自己与他人 的意义

所在。

The

physical

ills

are

gone,

but

more

than

that,

I

have

at

long last started to acquire a philosophy of living. I had never

possessed

one.

I

had

lived

on

dogma

and

dicta

which

I

had

accepted

unquestioningly

through

the

years,

even

though

I

believed little of it, because I feared to question. But by being

unable to live naturally and at peace with myself I was flying in

the face of nature. She was punishing me with illness and, at

the

same

time,

informing

me

all

was

not

well

just

in

case

I

wanted to do something about it.

我身体的疾病得以治愈，

而更多的是我最终开始学会一门生活的

哲学。

我一直是一个循规蹈矩的人，

虽然我并不相信 那些教条与格言，

但多年来，由于不敢质疑，我一直不假思索地将其视为生活的准则。< /p>

然而我却难以正常而平静地生活，总是坐立不安。最终，我受到了惩

罚，病魔缠身，同时也得到了启示：必须对现状做出改变，否则将万

事不顺。

In order to change, I needed help in facing myself. For me

it was not easy to

“

know thyself

”

. All my life I had accepted

the

lesser

of

the

two

evils

and

run

away

from

self

because

truth

was

more

dangerous.

Once

I

thought

that

to

survive

I

had

to

put

on

a

mask

and

forget

what

lay

underneath.

But

masks are false protections and the inner part of me refused to

go unheard forever.

为了改变现 状，

我需要帮助来面对自我。对我来说，

“认识自己”

并不是件简单的事。一生中，我选择了两个罪恶中较轻的一个：逃避

自我 ，因为真相往往更为危险。曾经我以为，戴上面具，忘记面具下

的一切，就能生存下去。

It caught up eventually, and unless it was to master me I

had to face such feelings as fear, anger, envy, hatred, jealousy

and excessive need for attention. When I realized I could not

have done anything else except what I did, I was able to like

myself more and be able to like others not for what they could

give me but for what I could give to them.

然而，面具是虚假的掩护，我的内心决不肯永远缄默。最终这种

< p>
情感占了上风，如果它不曾主宰我，我就依然得面对恐惧、愤怒、羡

慕、仇 恨、嫉妒和极其需要关注的情感。除了顺从自己的内心，我别

无选择，当我意识到这一点 时，我便更喜欢自己，也更爱他人。这并

不是为了他人能给予我什么，而是我能给予他们 什么。

The Bible shows the way to easy, happy living in many of

its

pages.

It

advises,

“

It

is

more

blessed

to

give

than

to

receive.

”

Those who expect the most are apt to receive the

least.

I

had

expected much

and

was filled

with

fury

because

nothing

in

the

outside

world

relieved

my

emptiness

and

despair.

Nothing did,

either,

until I

could

face the anger and

fury, the emptiness and despair, and slowly start to know such
