纪伯伦：我曾有七次鄙视自己的灵魂

<p>新的一天，一首纪伯伦的诗送给大家。人生就是不停的反省自己。</p><p><br ></p><p><br ></p><p>Seven times have I despised my soul:</p><p><br >The first time when I saw her being meek that she might attain height.&nbsp;<br >The second time when I saw her limping before the crippled.&nbsp;<br >The third time when she was given to choose between the hard and the easy, and she chose the easy.&nbsp;<br >The fourth time when she committed a wrong, and comforted herself that others also commit wrong.&nbsp;<br >The fifth time when she forbore for weakness, and attributed her patience to strength.&nbsp;<br >The sixth time when she despised the ugliness of a face, and knew not that it was one of her own masks.<br >And the seventh time when she sang a song of praise, and deemed it a virtue.<br ><br >我曾有七次鄙视自己的灵魂：<br ><br >第一次，当它本可进取时，却故作谦卑；&nbsp;<br >第二次，当它在空虚时，用爱欲来填充；&nbsp;<br >第三次，在困难和容易之间，它选择了容易；&nbsp;<br >第四次，它犯了错，却借由别人也会犯错来宽慰自己；&nbsp;<br >第五次，它自由软弱，却把它认为是生命的坚韧；&nbsp;<br >第六次，当它鄙夷一张丑恶的嘴脸时，却不知那正是自己面具中的一副；&nbsp;<br >第七次，它侧身于生活的污泥中，虽不甘心，却又畏首畏尾。&nbsp;<br ><br >——Sand and Foam 沙与沫<br >&nbsp;</p><p><br ></p>
