爷爷的一封信One day, a young man was cleaning out his late grandfather's belongings when he came across a bright red envelope. Written on the front were the words, "To my grandson." Recognizing his grandfather's handwriting, the boy opened the envelope. A letter inside read: 有一天，一位年轻人在整理他已故祖父的遗物时，偶然发现了一个鲜红色的信封。信封上面写着“我的孙子亲启”。年轻人认出是他祖父的笔迹，就打开了那个信封，里面的信写着：Dear Ronny,亲爱的罗尼， Years ago you came to me for help. You said, " Grandpa, how is it that you've accomplished so much in your life? You're still full of energy, and I'm already tired of struggling. How can I get that same enthusiasm that you've got?" 多年前，你向我寻求帮助。你问：“爷爷，您是怎么在一生中取得那么大的成就？您仍旧充满活力，而我已经厌倦了奋斗。我怎样才能像您那样充满活力？” I didn't know what to say to you then. But knowing my days are numbered, I figure that I owe you an answer. So here is what I believe. 那时候我不知道怎样回答你。我知道我剩下的日子不多了，我觉得我欠你一个回答。以下就是我所深信不疑的。 I think a lot of it has to do with how a person looks at things. I call it 'keeping your eyes wide open.' 我认为保持活力与一个人如何看待事情息息相关。我把这称为“保持开阔的眼界”。 First, realize that life is filled with surprises, but many are good ones. If you don't keep watching for them, you'll miss half the excitement. Expect to be thrilled once in a while, and you will be. 首先，你要意识到生活充满意想不到的事情，而且大部分是惊喜。如果你没有留意他们，你将失去生活一半的喜悦。期待着时不时感受到惊喜吧，你一定会的。 When you meet up with challenges, welcome them. They'll leave you wiser, stronger, and more capable than you were the day before. When you make a mistake, be grateful for the things it taught ...
