What I Have Lived For 我为何而活

Bertrand Russell

Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the verge of despair.

Relax. Don’t take yourself too seriously. Happiness is largely a choice. Feel gratitude for all of the good in your life.

Smile. Once you have enough to pay for life’s basics think to yourself: “I’ve won.” Happiness is contagious: find someone who is happy and stand close to them. 

by Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861)

 How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.  

I love thee to the depth and breadth and height  

My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight  

For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.  

I love thee to the level of everyday's  

Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.  

I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;  

I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.  

I love thee with a passion put to use  

In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.  

I love thee with a love I seemed to lose  

With my lost saints, --- I love thee with the breath,  

Smiles, tears, of all my life! --- and, if God choose,  

I shall but love thee better after death.  

 童年的我们被呵护着，一双温柔白皙的手，带来无私的母爱。恍然间，那双手已经不再温柔了，甚至有些粗糙，但那双手依然给我们带来温暖。世界上有种最无私的爱，那就是母爱，无论沧海桑田，还是天涯海角，母爱永远难以割断。记忆深处的那一双手，总是母亲的手。

The Best One

    Blessed indeed is the man who hears many
    gentle voices call him father!
    Lydia M. Child
    When I was a little girl, my father had a time-honored tradition of tucking me into bed. Following my bedtime story, he would give me a nose kiss, tickle my stomach and whisper the most wonderful words into my ear. “Michelle, of all the little girls in the whole wide world . . .” he would pause.
