英語經(jīng)典美文誦讀100篇：081.love your life

[00:01.97]081.Love Your Life [00:13.32]However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. [00:20.57]It is not as bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. [00:26.27]The faultfinder will find faults even in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. [00:33.41]You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poor house. [00:39.76]The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the almshouse as brightly as from the rich man's abode; [00:46.75]the snow melts before its door as early in the spring. [00:50.61]I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, [00:55.04]and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace. [00:59.04]The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any. [01:05.12]Maybe they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving. [01:09.76]Most think that they are above being supported by the town; [01:13.98]but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means, [01:19.51]which should be more disreputable. Cultivate poverty like a garden herb, like sage. [01:26.58]Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. [01:31.49]Turn the old, return to them. Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
