And how will I act？ I will love all manner of men for each has qualities to be admired even though they are hidden. With love I will tear down the wall of suspicion and hate which they have built round their hearts and in its place will I build bridges so that my love may enter their souls.
I will love the ambitious for they can inspire me！ I will love the failures for they can teach me. I will love the kings for they are but human； I will love the meek for they are divine. I will love the rich for they are yet lonely.
I will love the poor for they are so many. I will love the young for the faith they hold； I will love the old for the wisdom they share. I will love the beautiful for their eyes of sadness； I will love the ugly for their souls of peace.
But how will I react to the actions of others？ With love， for just as love is weapon to open the hearts of men， and love is also my shield to repulse the arrows of hate and the spears of anger. Adversity and discouragement will beat against my new shield and become as the softest of rains.
And how will I confront each whom I meet？ In only one way- in silence and to myself I will address him and say“I love you”. Though spoken in silence these words will shine in my eyes， unwrinkled my brow， bring a smile to my lips， and echo in my voice； and his heart will be opened.
爱是打开人类心扉的武器，爱也是击退仇恨之箭与愤怒之矛的最佳盾牌。因为心中有爱，我们才懂得珍惜。
参考翻译（刘文馨）
我将用爱来迎接这一天。因为这是任何冒险取得成功的最大秘密。尽管肌肉的力量可以撕裂防护甚至可以毁掉生命，但是却只有爱这种看不见的力量能打开人类的心扉。我要用爱来做武器，相信没有人可以抵抗得了它的进攻。
那么，我会如何做呢？从今往后，我将用爱来看待一切事物，并将因此获得重生。我会爱太阳，因为它给予我温暖；我会爱雨，因为它可以涤荡我的心灵；我会爱灯光，因为它为我指明道路；我会爱黑暗，因为它让我能看清星辰；我会拥抱快乐，因为它让我心胸开阔；我还会忍受悲伤，因为它能开启我的灵魂。我会将奖励当做理所应得的，我还会欣然接受阻碍，因为它们是一种挑战。
我又会如何说话呢？我会赞美敌人并且与他们成为朋友；我会鼓励我的朋友们并与他们成为手足；我会总是挖掘出理由来称赞别人，却永远不会找借口去搬弄是非；当我想要去批判别人时，我会咬自己的舌头；当我准备去表扬别人的时候我会站在房顶上大声宣布。
那些鸟儿、风、大海还有所有大自然的声音不都是对造物主的赞美之音吗？难道我不能歌唱同样的音律来献给它的孩子们吗？从今往后，我会记得这个秘密，它将改变我的人生。
我将如何行动呢？我会爱他人所有的态度，因为每个人的特质都值得被欣赏，即使有些特质尚未被发现。我要将人们内心周围的那座猜疑和仇恨的壁垒哭倒，并且建造一座能让我的爱抵达他们灵魂的桥。
我会爱勃勃的野心，因为它们能激励我；我会爱挫折与失败，因为它们能给我教训；我会爱国王首领，因为他们同样也是人类；我会爱温婉的人，因为他们是上天赐予的礼物；我会爱富裕的人们，其实他们非常孤寂。
我会爱贫穷的人们，因为他们如此众多；我会爱年轻的人们，因为他们壮志凌云；我会爱年长的人们，因为他们会分享智慧；我会爱那些美丽的人们，因为他们的眼睛常带忧伤；我会爱丑陋的人们，因为他们的内心如此平静。
但是我会如何回应他人的行为呢？用爱，因为爱就是打开人类心扉的武器，爱也是我击退仇恨之箭与愤怒之矛的最佳盾牌。不幸与沮丧会打击我的新盾牌并且变成最柔软的细雨。
那么我又会怎样面对我遇见的每一个人呢？只用爱的方式，那就是安静地称呼他的名字并且对他说“我爱你”。虽然只是静静地说这些字句，但是它们却会在我的眼中闪光，平整我的眉毛，微笑挂在我嘴上，回声在我的话音中摆荡，他的心也会随之为我开放。
Unselfishly 无私的爱
Anonymous
She is so very beautiful her love is from within. How can I praise this special woman where do I begin？ She always knows just what to say and what I need to hear， and when I need that special someone she is always near.
She always knows just what to do when I am feeling lost. Her kindness and compassion comes without a hidden cost. Unselfishly she shares her love and asks none in return. Love that‘s unconditional from her is what I’ve learned.
She stands so tall and elegant a goddess in my eyes. The older I get it seems the more I realize how very wise and understanding she has always been. And now I understand that she has been my dearest friend.
She always gives and never asks to receive in return. And many times I thought the way I acted just might ruin tile bond we have created or the closeness that has grown， but she is always there for me I never amalone.
There are some times we‘ve disagreed and I felt we would part， but always she was waiting for me with a loving heart， forgiving all my attitudes and loving me for me， looking way beyond the things that other people see.
Even when I make mistakes， I know that she will say， gone are yesterday’s mistakes this is a brand new day. No matter if I still rebel or her advice I spurn， she says experience is not the only way to learn.
When I am up and all is great she shares my happiness， but when my world comes crashing down she also shares in this. She always has a word to say about what I should do， but right or wrong she never says the dreaded，“I told you.”
I understand the force behind her love on Mother‘s Day. Advice that she has given me has helped me find my way. I try with all my heart to love unselfishly like my mother. But on this day she needs to know how much I really love her.
妈妈的保护伞总在我们需要的时候无私地撑开，我们也要学着像母亲那样，无私地去爱。
参考翻译（佚名）
她如此美丽，她的爱发自肺腑。我该如何赞美这位特殊的女士呢？从哪里说起呢？她永远知道该说什么，知道我需要听什么。当我需要这位特殊的人时，她总会陪伴在我身边。
她永远知道如何安慰迷茫时的我，她善良并有同情心，她总是不惜一切代价地付出，她无私地让我们分享她的爱，不求回报。我从她那里学到了怎样无私奉献自己的爱。
在我眼里，她是一位高贵典雅的女神。随着年龄的增长，我更强烈地意识到，她的爱总是充满智慧，她总是那么善解人意。现在，我明白了，她始终是我最亲密的朋友。
她总是奉献，不求回报。多少次，由我们创造的日久弥新的纽带，曾被我的所作所为毁坏。但她永远为我守候，我从未因此感到孤独。
我们偶尔会有分歧，我觉得我们会彼此疏远，但是，她总是全心全意地等我回头，原谅我所有不恭的态度，一如继往地爱我。她总是比其他人看得远。
即使我犯了错，我知道她会说，昨天的过错已经过去，今天又是一个崭新的日子。不论我是否还要叛逆，或不顾她的忠告，她会说经验不是学习的唯一途径。
当我意气风发、万事如意时，她会分享我的喜悦。但是，当我跌入谷底时，她也会分担我的愁苦。她总会对我的处境提出忠告，不论对错与否，她绝不说那句可怕的话--“我早就告诉过你了”。
值此母亲节，我更懂得她的爱背后的力量，她给我的忠告帮我找到了属于自己的方向，我努力像母亲那样，无私地去爱。但是，在这个日子里，我想让她知道，我真的很爱她。
Support 支持

“There are two ways of spreading light： to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it”
-- Wharton You support someone when you willingly step forward to help him through a challenging time. Yet the great irony is that when you support others， you are also， in fact， supporting yourself. When you withhold support from others， it is usually an indicator that you are also withholdingsupport from yourself.
We are most often called upon to support others in friendship. One of my acquaintances， Donna， told me a story recently that clearly illustrates the magic of support and its potential as an emotional mirror.
Several years ago， Donna had been feeling very depressed. She had just broken up with her boyfriend of two years， and she was having a very difficult time accepting the loss. She had been laid up with a knee injuryfor several days， and the time alone at home certainly was not helping. Her misery was only compounded by her frustration at herself for not being able to pull it together and stop crying all the time.
