暗夜中的燭光
Just as light shines on this world
Goodness never dies
善心不死 光芒永照人世
One night the mayor of a city came to speak to his people in a
large stadium
There were a hundred thousand people there listening to the
mayor
He said to them
Maybe you think you're very small and insignificant and maybe you
think your work is meaningless
But that's not true
You're wrong
You are the most important person in society
Now let me prove that to you
And when he said that all the lights in the stadium went off and it
was very dark
And the mayor lit one little candle
Although it was very small everyone could see it and then he said
to the people
Now let us all light our candles and all 100,000 people lit their
candles and the stadium was lit up with a tremendous light and
suddenly everyone realized just how important he was
有一天晚上一位市長到了一個大的運動場 向他的市民說話 那天晚上有十萬人在那邊聽 他跟他們說 也許你認為你只是一個人很微小
很沒什麼重要性
可能你認為你的工作不重要你錯了 現在讓我證明給你看 他講完這句話
全場的探照燈都熄滅了變成黑暗 然後市長他點了一個小蠟燭 雖然很小大家都能夠看到 然後市長跟大家說 請每一個人現在點你手上的小蠟燭
十萬個人就點了他們手上的蠟燭 馬上有很大很亮的一個光 所有的人都很驚訝 沒有想到他們能夠製造那麼大的光 然後每一個人都瞭解他自己的重要性
点评:
Maybe you think you're just one very small candle
But if you light your candle and let it burn brightly
You will discover that you can change the world
And make it a better place to live
也許你認為你只是一個小蠟燭 不過如果你點好你的蠟燭讓他發光 你會發現你可以影響整個世界 讓我們的世界成為一個更美好的地方
