On Changes
            --Irene Dunlap 

Change is the only absolute
in the world,
the only thing
that you can depend on.
Nothing stays the same.
Tomorrow will come,
bringing with it
new beginnings and sometimes
unexpected endings.
You can hold on to the past
and get left in the dust;
or, you can choose to
jump on the ride of life
and live a new adventure
with perseverance
and an open mind.
论变化  
          -艾琳·邓莱普
 
变化是世界上 
惟一绝对的东西,  
是惟一  
你能相信的事情。  
没有什么能一成不变, 
明天将来临,  
它会带来新的开始,
并且有时
还会带来意想不到的结局。  
你可以抓住过去, 
蒙受遗弃;  
或者,你可以选择  
跃上生命之车  
进行一次新的冒险,  
凭借坚持不懈 
和广阔的胸怀。1.unexpected  adj. 想不到的, 意外的

例句:

Their unexpected arrival threw our plan into confusion. 
他们的突然到来打乱了我们的计划。

2.perseverance   n. 毅力, 忍耐, 不屈不挠

例句:

He became a champion at last in virtue of his perseverance. 
凭着坚韧不拔的精神, 他终于成为冠军。
