英语夜读22-珍惜自由

Freedom 
珍惜自由


Of all the wonderful gifts that we've been given, one of the greatest is freedom.
在众多的我们天生被赋予的美妙礼物中，自由是最伟大的礼物之一。


As much as we may deny it we are free in this life.
就如我们常常会否认这一点，我们有自由掌握自己的生活确实是不争的事实。


 We are free in what we think, free in what we feel, free in what we say, and free in what we do. Yes, life may give us some very difficult circumstances at times, but we are still free in how we choose to react to them.
 我们可以自由地思考，自由地感受，发表自由言论，做自己想做的事。是的，有时生活会让我们处境艰难，但我们仍然可以自由选择如何应对困境。
 
Many people in this life deny their freedom. They sit back in their misery and blame it on their parents, or their childhood, their health, or their financial problems. They never once stand up and take responsibility for their own lives and their own happiness.
有许多人否认他们的自由。他们只是颓废地坐在那里，抱怨他们的父母，或他们的孩子，或他们的身体状况，或他们的经济危机。他们从未勇敢地站起来去为自己的生活及自己的快乐真正地负起责任来。


The truth is that we've been given the power to choose love and joy in our lives no matter what happens to us. No one has ever been or will ever be strong enough to take our freedom away from us.
而事实是我们天生就被赋予了选择爱与欢乐的力量，不管我们的生活中发生任何事。没有任何人（以前没有，将来也不会）有足够强大的力量可以将我们的自由掠走。


Remember, you are free to create the type of life you have always wanted, the choice is up to you…
记住：你有自由创造你一直憧憬着的生活，选择权就在你手里……
