No Complaint, No Maturation

In a restaurant, I met him.

He was grumbling continuously ever since he sat down, complaining hiscompany for little salary after eternally hard working; the unjust of his linemanager who merely promote the one ingratiate him with he; the unkind ofcolleagues for ganging up with and beating someone while

pretending to be wellwith Finally, I caught the moment he stopped and enquired him cautiously: sinceyou are so unhappy with your work, why not changing ？ he stupefied with aglance to me seemingly an alien “跳槽？Where should I go? You know that the economy isin the boom.” I have got it. Actually, his job was not so terrible.

After the dinner, he said good-bye to me heartily and left me

histelephone specially. However, I have never connected him ever. For me, it isout of consideration to make a friend with 一个怒气冲天的人。

It reminds me 阿瑟·阿什， a well-know tennisplayer in America. He happened to catch the AIDS when he got a bloodtransfusion. A pile of his fans showed their sympathy and blamed the unjustGod. While 阿瑟·阿什 declared: “I get adeadly cancer, but a would not complain the God and myself because I know thatsomething we can not run away. I have no choice but to face when the daycomes.”

Genius! In his words, there is calmness, magnanimous, open-minded, aswell as the demeanors of a mature man. Unfortunately, we complaint everythingwhen we have to face the difficulty and setbacks in reality:

we alwayscomplaining that the God is unfair; the crucial fate, the grim human beingsItis worth doing if his dissatisfaction go away, depression disappear, feelingsbecome motivational after complaint. But, the problem is, as a mass of shabbyand cool fog, the complaint is so misleading that confuses his mind and thendrops him deeper and deeper in the muddy.

Life is like a journey, from ignorant to mature. And I believe thattruly mature is start from no complaint.

翻译：成熟，从不抱怨开始

遇见他，是在一个饭局上。

一落座，他就喋喋不休地抱怨起来：怨公司不好，拼死拼活一个月，拿到手里的工资没多少；怨上司不公，谁擅长拍马就重用谁；怨同事不善，成天勾心斗角明争暗夺终于，在他暂停抱怨的间隙，我小心翼翼地问了一句：既然工作如此不称心，为什么不跳槽呢？他一愣，奇怪地看了我一眼，似乎在看一个外星人。 “跳槽？现在经济这么不景气，往哪里跳？”一这下我算明白了，原来他的工作并非一无是处啊。

散席后。尽管他热情地与我道别，并且特意留下他的电话，但我，却再未联系过他。对我来说，一个怨气冲天的人，是不值得交往的。

不由得想起阿瑟·阿什。这位美国著名的网球名将，在一次输血时感染了艾滋病。对于他的遭遇，许多球迷深表同情，且因此责怪老天对他太不公平。对此，阿瑟·阿什说道：“知今，我身患绝症，我不怨天，也不怪自己；因为我知道有些事人无法左右，当不幸来临时，我们只能面对。”

说得多么好！在这段话里，我们看到了从容，看到了平静，看到了坦荡，看到了豁达，看到了一位成熟男人的风范。然而遗憾的是，在现实生活中，面对困难和挫折，我们听得最多的，还是抱怨：怨苍天不公，怨命运残酷，怨人情冷酷如果说一个人抱怨之后，他的不满与郁闷能够随风而去，心境能够变得开朗起来，那他的抱怨还算是有价值的。可问题在于，抱怨恰如一股阴冷潮湿的黑雾，足以遮蔽他的眼光迷惑他的心智，最终让佑在自怨自艾的泥潭里越陷越深。

人生就是一段旅程，是一段从青涩走向成熟的旅程。而我相信，真正的成熟，是从不抱怨开始的。

There lies in the heart of every man and woman a quiet hunger：a longing for an earth shaking significance.

在我们每个人心中都深藏着一份无声而真实的渴望：一种创造辉煌人生的渴望。

It can be heard in the quiet, most unedited times like when our head hits the pillow at night. As the pressures of the day fade away the voice catches our attention: “I was meant for more than this, there has got to be something more.”

这种渴望有时会在不经意的安静时刻，比如当我们在夜晚将头靠落有枕头上时听到。当一天的压力逐渐退去，有种声音会震撼我们的灵魂：“生活不仅仅是这样，我的人生可以更灿烂。”

Many people have learned to accept a life of quiet resignation, committed to maintaining the status-quo. But still, in the times we least expect it, we hear that distant call again: a call for meaning, purpose, passion, significance. It continues to haunt us, to stalk us, and as we try to silence it with reason and maturity we find that indeed, it is a fire within our bones and it will not yield.

很多人已经接受了一种放弃追求梦想的生活，只安于现状。但是有时候就在我们最不经意的一霎那，英语励志短文我们会再次听到那遥远的呼唤：呼唤着一种充实，有内涵，富有激情和意义的生活。这种呼唤会一直回荡在我们耳边，缠绕着我们，即使我们试图用理智和成熟去沉默它，我们却发现实事上它是我们内心骨子里的一团火焰，永远不会熄灭。

Our suspicions are correct. There is a larger story and we have a role to play in it. It has been said that what a man does during his life shall echo throughout eternity.

我们的直觉是正确的。有一个绚烂的人生故事，而我们就是这个故事的主角。有这样一句话：一个人的一生荡气回肠，永不朽。

If you are ready to find your purpose, find the voice. Go back to the places that you have heard it most clear. For some it comes in the early morning, before the cares of the day have drowned them out. For others it comes through music, or movies, or books, or it is found on a walk through the woods or on the side of a mountain.

如果你已经准备好去发现你人生的目的，去倾听那个声音吧。回到那个你最能清晰触摸到你内心深处的地方。对某些人来说，这个声音会在清晨，开始一天的繁忙之前出现。而对某些人，它会在听音乐，看电影或读书时显现，也或者当你在林间或山岗散步时听到这种呼唤。

People often wonder why historians go to so much trouble to preserve millions of books, documents and records.

Why do we have libraries? What good are these documents and history books? Why do we record and save the actions of men, the negotiations1 of government officials and the events during wars?

We do it because, sometimes, the voice of experience can cause us to stop, look and listen. Sometimes, past records, when understood in the right way, can help us decide what to do and what not to do. If we are ever to create lasting peace, we must seek its origins in human experience and in the records of human history.

From the stories of courage and devotion of men and women, we create the inspirations of youth. History records the suffering, the self-denial2, the devotion, and the heroic deeds of people in the past. These records can help us when we are confused and when we really need peace.

The main purpose of history is to create a better world. History gives a warning to those who promote war, and inspiration to those who seek peace.

In short, history helps us learn. Yesterday’s records can keep us from repeating yesterday’s mistakes. And from the pieces of mosaic4 assembled5 by historians come the great murals6 which represent the progress of mankind.

翻译：一个更好的明天

英语励志短文人们常常心存疑虑，为什么历史学家要费尽周折地保存数以万计的书籍、文献和记录。

我们为什么要有图书馆呢？这些文献和史书有何用处呢？ 我们为什么要记载并保存人类的行为、政府官员的谈判和战争中的事件呢？

我们这么做的原因在于有时候经验之音能促使我们停步、观察和倾听。 如果我们想要创造永久的和平，我们就必须从人类的经验以及人类历史的记载中去探索其渊源。

从体现男性和女性勇敢和奉献精神的故事之中，我们获得了青春的启示。英语短文历史记载着人类的一切苦难、克己、忠诚和英勇的事迹。这些记载在我们困惑和渴望和平时能对我们有所帮助。

历史的主要目的是创造一个更加美好的世界。历史对那些力主战争的人给以警告，给予那些寻求和平的人以启示。

简而言之，历史帮助我们学习。昨日的记载可以使我们避免重蹈覆辙。这些历史学家们创作的像马赛克一样色彩缤纷的历史片断汇聚成了代表人类进步的伟大壁画。
