在忙碌中停止了笔的记录，没有停滞的是用心走过每一个季节、每一天，以心代笔铭刻下每一天带给我或清淡、或浓烈的感动。
－题记
Beauty and seduction is nature's tools for survival, because by human nature, we protect what we fall in love with. Nature immerses us in its beauty with color, taste, touch, which in turn opens our hearts, connects us from one to another and make us realize we are in fact an inseparable union.
美与诱惑是自然的生存工具，因为保护我们爱上的东西是人的天性。自然之美的雨露打开我们的心扉，让我们顿悟：做为自然的每一份子， 我们是浑然不可分割的一体。
Nature's beauty is a gift that cultivates appreciation and gratitude. You think this is just another day in your life? It's not just another day. It's the one day that is given to you today.It's given to you. It's a gift. It's the only gift that you have right now, and the only appropriate response is gratefulness. If you do nothing else but to cultivate that response to the great gift that this unique day is, if you learn to respond as if it were the first day in your life and the very last day, then you will have spent this day very well.
自然之美是天赐礼物，滋养欣赏和感激。新的一天降临，你认为这只是人生中另一个平白无奇的日子吗？不是的，这是上天的赐赋，是一个礼物，也是你手中唯一的礼物。对这份“唯一礼物”最恰当反应是感恩。如果你去有意识地培养和学会这种反应，心存感恩，你就会把每一天当作你人生的第一天，也是最后一天去珍惜着度过。
Begin by opening your eyes and be surprised that you have eyes you can open, that incredible array of colors that is constantly offered to us for pure enjoyment. Look at the sky. We so rarely look at the sky. We so rarely note how different it is from moment to moment, with clouds comingand going. We just think of the weather, and even with the weather, we don't think of all the many nuances of weather. We just think of good weather and bad weather. This day, right now, has unique weather, maybe a kind that will never exactly in that form come again. That formation of clouds in the sky will never be the same as it is right now. Open your eyes. Look at that.
以睁开双眼为始，对目所能及之物充满惊喜，感受色彩那不可思议的光芒每时每刻带给我们那纯粹的享受。凝望天空，我们很少看天，很少注意到天空在这一刻与下一刻的变换，云卷云舒。我们只是关心天气。就算是天气，我们也只是关心天气是好是坏，不曾关注它的各种细微之处。今天，此时此刻，有着特别的天气，再也不会以同样的方式再现。那云彩的组合也不再会重现。睁大你的双眼，看看这些。
Look at the faces of people whom you meet. Each one has an incredible story behind their face, a story that you could never fully fathom, not only their own story, but the story of their ancestors. We all go back so far, and in this present moment, on this day, all the people you meet, all that life from generations and from so many places all over the world flows together and meets you here like a life-giving water, if you only open your heart and drink.
看看你遇到脸容。每一张脸庞的背面都有一个不平凡的故事，一个你无法完全理解的故事，他们自己的，他们的祖先的。我们都爱回望过去，但此时此刻，你遇到的所有人，所有的生命，是跨越了时间和距离来与你相遇，如生命之泉，等你敞开心扉去畅饮。
Open your heart to the incredible gifts that civilization gives to us. You flip a switch and there is electric light. You turn a faucet and there is warm water and cold water, and drinkable water. It's a gift that millions and millions in the world will never experience.
敞开心扉去接受文明带给我们的无价的礼物。拨一下开关电灯就亮了，打开水龙头，就有热水和冷水，还有饮用水。这在你看似平常的便利，却是世界上成千上万的人还无法能享用的奢侈品。
So these are just a few of an enormous number of gifts to which we can open your heart. And so I wish you that you will open your heart to all these blessings, and let them flow through you, that everyone whom you will meet on this day will be blessed by you, just by your eyes, by your smile, by your touch, just by your presence. Let the gratefulness overflow into blessing all around you, and then it will really be a good day！
这只是我们接收的无数礼物中的几件。愿你能打开心扉，让所有这些天赐的祝福滋养你的身心。你今天遇到的每个人，都能蒙荫，因你的双眸，你的微笑，你的触摸，以及你的出现。让这份感激化作祝福，盈润丰满，让今天－这个天赐的礼物，成为真正美好的一天！
