英语美文：Use the hard times of your past to motivate you

Whatever pain you've been through, whatever pain you're going through, know that it wasn't sent to make you weaker, know that it was sent to make you stronger. Trust that it wasn't sent to beat you down, but to raise you up. Trust that it wasn't sent to break you, but to make you.
不管你经历了什么痛苦，无论你正在经历什么痛苦，你要知道它的目的不是让你变弱，是为了让你更强大；你要相信它不是为了打败你，而是为了让你成长；你要相信它不是为了击溃你，而是用来成就你的。

Think of your life like a giant puzzle. In order to complete the puzzle. The masterpiece that is your life, every piece of puzzle is just as important as the other. You have different shapes, different colours, on their own they seem random and incomplete, but together they make sense. 

把你的生活想象成一个巨大的拼图。你要完成这块拼图，你拼出来的杰作就是你自己的生活。每一块拼图都一样重要，拼图形状不同，颜色各异。只是把它们单独放到一起，看起来是凌乱的、不完整的，但它们合在一起就有了意义。

Once all the pieces come together you can see the bigger picture. You have to be able to see the bigger picture in your life, or at least have faith your puzzle will come together in time.

一旦所有的部分聚集在一起，你就可以看到更大的图景。你必须能够看到你生活中的大图景，或者至少要有信心你的拼图迟早会拼在一起的。
