永不放弃希望Never give up hope
Life doesn't always give us the joys we want.
We don't always get our hopes and dreams, and we don't always get our own way.
But don't give up hope, because you can make a difference one situation and one person at a time.
Look for the beauty around you —in nature, in others, in yourself —and believe in the love of friends, family, and humankind.
You can find love in a smile or a helping hand, in a thoughtful gesture or a kind word. It is all around, if you just look for it.
Give love, for in giving it you will find the power in life along with the joy, happiness, patience, and understanding.
Believe in the goodness of others and remember that anger and depression can be counted by love and hope.
Even when you feel as though there isn't a lot you can do to change unhappiness or problems, you can always do a little —and a little at a time eventually makes a big difference.

永不放弃希望
活并非总是如你所愿。
我们不会一直梦想成真,我们也不能一直走自己的路。
但是不要放弃希望,因为不同时间,不同场合,你会呈现不同的面貌。
留心你身边的美吧,包括自然中的美,他人的美,你自己的美,请相信朋友、家人乃至全人类的爱。
你会发现一个微笑,一只援手,一个关心的举止,一句友善的话语,都充满着爱。只要你去寻找,爱无所不在。
奉献爱心吧,给予的时候你会从中发现生命的力量,以及伴随它的快乐、幸福、耐心和理解。
相信人性本善,记住爱心和希望能化解一切愤怒和沮丧。
即使当你觉得仿佛做什么都不能消除不快、解决问题时,你仍可以尽力而为——累积点滴努力,最终将有巨大的转变。
【人生启迪】
人们常说:“人生不如意十之八九。”既然不能什么都如愿以偿,就没必要再去怨声载道。有希望才能有奋斗目标,才能最终实现梦想。不要放弃希望,而要放弃抱怨,努力生活,用爱温暖这个世界。
