1.当爱向你们挥手—卡里 纪伯伦
When love beckons you, follow him, though his ways are hard and stccp. And when his wings enfold you, yield to him, though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you. And when he speaks to you, believe in him, though his voice may shatter your dreams as the north wind lays waste the garden.
For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning. Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your most tender branches that quiver in the sun,so shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth.
All these things shall love do unto you that you may know the secrets of your heart and in that knowledge become a fragment of life's heart.But if,in your fear,you would seek only love's peace and love's pleasure,then it is better for you that you cover your nakeness and pass out of love's threshing-floor. into the season less world where you shall laugh, but not all of your laughter, and weep. but not all of your tears. Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from pssesse, not nor would it be possessed. for love is sufficient into love.
Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself. But if you love and have desires, don't let these be your desires:
To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love
And to bleed willingly andjoyfully.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving;
To rest at the noon hour and meditate love's ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude; And then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart.
当爱挥手召唤你们时，跟随着它，尽管它的道路艰难而险峻。当它展翼拥抱你们时，依顺着它，尽管它羽翼中的利刃会伤害你们。当它对你们说话时，要相信它，尽管它的声音会击碎你的梦，像狂风尽扫园中的花。
爱虽可为你们加冕，也能将你们钉上十字架。它虽可助你们成长，也能将你们削砍剪刘。它会攀至你们的高处，轻抚你们阳光下颤动的最柔嫩的枝条，它也会降至你们的根底，动摇你们紧紧依附着大地的根须。
这一切都是爱为你们所做的，使你们或许能从中领悟自己心中的秘密，从而成为生命之心的一小部分。但是如果你们出于畏惧只去寻求爱的和美与爱的欢乐，那你们最好掩起自己的赤裸，离开爱的打谷场，踏人那没有季节的世界，在那里，你会开怀，但不是尽情欢笑;你会哭泣，但不是尽为泪水。爱除了自身别无所求，除了自身别无所取二爱不占有，也不被占有，因为爱有了自己就足够了.
爱别无他求，只求成全自己。但如果你爱了，又有所渴求，就别让这些成你的所求吧:
融化为一道奔流的溪水，在夜晚吟唱自己的清曲。
体会太多温柔带来的痛苦。
被自己对爱的体会所伤害。
心甘情愿地淌血
清晨，带着一颗生翼的心醒来，感谢又一个充满爱的日子;
午休，沉思爱的心醉神怡;
黄昏，带着感激归家;睡前，为你心中的挚爱祈祷。
2.只有时间才知道爱的珍贵
Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others, including Love. One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all constructed boats and left. Except for Love.
Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to hold out until the last possible moment.
When the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.
Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said,"Richness, can you take me with you?"
Richness answered, "No, I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."
Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel. "Vanity, please help me!"
"I can't help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat," Vanity answered.
Sadness was close by so Love asked, "Sadness, let me go with you."
"Oh . . . Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!"
Happiness passed by Love, too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her.
Suddenly, there was a voice, "Come, Love, I will take you." It was an elder. So blessed and overjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way. Realizing how much was owed the elder, Love asked Knowledge, another elder, "Who Helped me?"
"It was Time," Knowledge answered.
"Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?"
Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is."
很久以前，有一座孤岛，岛上住着所有的情感：快乐，忧伤，知识，以及剩余的其他感情，其中也包括了爱。有一天，情感们得知，这座小岛将要沉没，他们都开始建造船只准备离开。除了一个人，爱。
爱是唯一一个选择留下的。它固执地想坚守到最后一秒。
当整座岛屿几乎覆灭时，爱决定向他人求助。
财富驶着一艘豪华游轮经过爱的身旁，爱恳求道：“财富啊，你能带上我么?”
财富回答说：“不，不行。我的船上装满了金银珠宝。没有空地留给你啦。”
这时，爱的身侧，虚荣架着一艘靓丽的轮船缓缓驶来，爱决定向虚荣求助：“虚荣，求求你帮帮我吧!”
虚荣拒绝了：“我不能帮你，爱。你全身湿嗒嗒地，这会弄脏我心爱的船的。”
爱向近在咫尺的忧伤渴求道：“忧伤，让我和你一起吧。
“噢。。。爱，我实在是太伤心了，我需要一个人静一会儿。”
快乐也从爱的身边驶过，但是她太高兴了，以至于完全没有听到爱的呼唤。
突然，一个声音映入耳帘，“快上了，爱，我来载你。”原来是名年迈的长者。爱如闻天籁，兴奋不已，甚至忘了问问长者要他们要去往何方。当他们在一片干涸之地靠岸时，长者又踏上了自己的征程，独自前行。爱意识到自己亏欠老者甚多，她赶忙询问智慧老人，“帮助我的人是谁呀?”
知识静静地答道：“那是时间。”
“时间?”爱问道，“但时间为什么要帮助我呢?”
知识微微一笑，饱含深意，回答说：“因为只有时间才知道爱的珍贵价值。”
