人生感悟
Life Perception
鱼那么信任水，
水却煮了鱼。
The fish trusts the water so much,
But the water boils the fish.
叶子那么信任风，
风却吹落了叶子。
The leaves trust the wind so much,
But the wind blows off the leaves.
熟悉的陌生了，
陌生的走远了。
The familiar becomes stranger,
And the stranger goes far away.
落叶知秋至，
落难知友真。
Falling leaves tell autumn’s arrival,
Misfortune tests the sincerity of friends.
（perception [pə’sɛpʃən]看法，认知；
misfortune [mɪs'fɔːtʃən] 不幸，灾难
sincerity [sɪn'serɪti] 诚挚，真诚。）
人生是一个过程，
像朝阳至日暮；
Life is a process,
Like sunrise to dusk;
又像春花、夏夜、秋日、冬雪，
一年四季的轮换。
And like spring flowers, summer nights, autumn days, winter snow,
The seasons rotate around the year.
（process ['prəʊses] 过程；
rotate [rəʊ'teɪt] 轮换，循环。）
如果人的一生分为两部分，
那就是上半场和下半场。
If a lifetime is divided into two parts,
That's the first half and the second half.
人生的上半场讲“升”：
The first half of life is about promotion:
升学历，
升职位，
升业绩，
升财富。
Promotion of education,
Promotion of posts,
Promotion of performance,
And promotion of wealth.
(performance [pə'fɔːməns] 业绩，执行，表演。）
人生的下半场讲“降”：
The second half of life is about "lowering”:
降血压，
降血糖，
降血脂，
降尿酸，
降胆固醇。
Lowering blood pressure,
Lowering blood sugar,
Lowering blood lipids,
Lowering uric acid,
And lowering cholesterol.
(lipid [ˋlɪpɪd] 脂肪；uric ['jʊərɪk] 尿的；
acid [ˈæsɪd] 酸;
cholesterol [kə'lestərɒl] 胆固醇。）
两场都嬴的法则是：
The rule of winning both games is:
没病也要体检，
不渴也要喝水，
Have a physical examination when you are not ill,
Drink water if you are not thirsty,
再烦也要想通，
有理也要让人，
Don’t take to heart however annoyed
Make a concession even if you have a reason,
有权也要低调，
Keep a low profile when you have power,
不富也要知足，
Be content even if you are not wealthy,
再忙也要锻炼。
Take exercise however busy you are.
（concession [kən'seʃən] 让步；
profile ['prəʊfaɪl] 姿态。）
无论生活是苦是甜，
真诚永远；
Whether your life is bitter or sweet,
Be sincere forever;
无论生命是长是短，
善良永远。
Whether your life is long or short,
Always be kind.
