Love your mother
愛你的媽媽
Let us take a moment of the time just to pay tribute and show appreciation to the person called MOM, though some may not say it openly to their mothers. There's no substitute for her. Cherish every single moment. Though at times she may not be the best of friends, she may not agree to your thoughts, she is still your mother!
讓我們花一點點時間，對那個被我們叫做“媽媽”的人表達敬意和感激之情，雖然有些人當着面說不出口。她是不可替代的。珍惜與她在一起的每一時刻吧。雖然有時候，她可能不是我們最好的朋友，可能不同意我們的想法，但她依然是你的媽媽!
She will be there for you; to listen to your woes your brags your frustrations, etc. Ask yourself “Have you put aside enough time for her, to listen to her 'blues' of working in the kitchen, her tiredness?”
你的媽媽始終陪伴你身邊，聽你傾訴傷心事，聽你神吹海侃，聽你訴說受挫的沮喪……捫心自問，“是否曾經抽出過足夠的時間陪伴她，聽聽她講圍着竈臺轉的‘煩心事’，聽聽她講她有多疲憊?”
Be tactful, loving and still show her due respect, though you may have a different view from hers. Once gone, only fond memories of the past and also regrets will be left.
即使你與她意見不一，也要委婉一些，充滿愛心，對她表示出應有的尊敬。一旦她去了，剩下的就只有對過去歲月的美好回憶和無盡的遺憾。
Do not take for granted the things closest to your heart. Love her more than you love yourself. Life is meaningless without her.
不要以爲，與你心最近，你就理所應得。愛她要甚於愛你自己。沒有了她，生命將毫無意義。
The Happy door/快樂之門
Happiness is like a pebble dropped into a pool to set in motion an ever-widening circle of ripples. As Stevenson has said, being happy is a duty.
快樂就像一塊爲了激起陣陣漣漪而丟進池塘的小石頭。正好史蒂文森所說，快樂是一種責任。
There is no exact definition of the word happiness. Happy people are happy for all sorts of reasons. The key is not wealth or physical well-being, since we find beggars, invalids and so-called failures, who are extremely happy.
快樂這個詞並沒有確切的定義，快樂的人快樂的理由多種多樣。快樂的關鍵並不是財富或身體健康，因爲我們發現有些乞丐，殘疾人和所謂的失敗者也都非常快樂。
Being happy is a sort of unexpected dividend. But staying happy is an accomplishment, a triumph of soul and character. It is not selfish to strive for it. It is, indeed, a duty to ourselves and others.
快樂是一種意外的收穫，但保持快樂卻是一種成就，一種靈性的勝利。努力追尋快樂並不自私，實際上，這是我們對自己和他人應盡的責任。
Being unhappy is like an infectious disease. It causes people to shrink away from the sufferer. He soon finds himself alone, miserable and embittered. There is, however, a cure so simple as to seem, at first glance, ridiculous; if you don’t feel happy, pretend to be!
不快樂就像傳染病，它使得人們都躲避不快樂的人。不快樂的人很快就會發現自己處於孤獨，悲慘，痛苦的境地。然而，有一種簡單得看似荒謬的治病良方：如果你不快樂，就假裝你很快樂!
It works. Before long you will find that instead of repelling people, you attract them. You discover how deeply rewarding it is to be the center of wider and wider circles of good will.
這很有效。不久你就會發現，別人不再躲着你了，相反，你開始吸引別人了。你會發覺，做一塊能激起好意漣漪的小石頭有多麼值得。
Then the make-believe becomes a reality. You possess the secret of peace of mind, and can forget yourself in being of service to others.
然後假裝就變成了現實。你擁有了使心靈平靜的祕密，會因幫助他人而忘我。
Being happy, once it is realized as a duty and established as a habit, opens doors into unimaginable gardens thronged with grateful friends.
一旦你認識到快樂是一種責任並使快樂成爲習慣，通向不可思議的樂園的大門就會向你敞開，那裏滿是感激你的朋友。
