1. I believe, for every drop of rain

2. that falls, a flower grows...

3. I believe that somewhere in the

4. darkest night, a candle glows...

5. I believe for everyone who

6. goes astray, Someone will come,

7. to show the way, I believe, I believe...

8. I believe, above the storm

9. the smallest prayer will still be heard...

10. I believe, that someone in that

11. great somewhere hears every word...

12. Every time I hear a newborn baby cry,

13. Or touch a leaf,

14. or see the sky,

15. Then I know why, I believe!

16. Every time I hear a newborn baby cry,

17. Or touch a leaf,

6. 都会有人给他指路;

7. 我相信,我相信……

8. 我相信,即使暴风雨在狂怒咆哮

9. 最微弱的祈祷也会被听到……

10. 我相信,有人在某个伟大的地方

11. 听到了每一个字……

Color And Life色彩与人生

1. What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, or red? If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader. Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist.

2. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favorite color as we grow up-we are born with our preference.

3. If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.

4. Colors do influence our moods—there is no doubt about it. A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing.

5. A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides than any other bridge in the area-until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.

6. Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or gray.

1. 你最喜欢什么色彩?你喜欢黄色、橙色和红色吗?倘若如此,你准是一个乐观的人,一个领导者。你偏爱灰、蓝系列色彩吗?那么,你很可能缄默、羞怯,你宁愿被别人领导而不愿领导别人。你有悲观者的倾向。

2. 至少,这是心理学家告诉我们的,心理学家应该是这方面的专家,因为他们一直在认认真真地研究色彩偏爱的意义以及各种色彩对人的不同影响。他们告诉我们许多东西,其中之一是我们并不是在成长过程中挑选自己偏爱的色彩——我们的这种偏爱与生俱来。

3. 假设你碰巧喜欢褐色,当初你一睁看到这个世界,或至少当你看清这个世界的时候,你就喜欢上褐色了。

4. 色彩的确影响我们的情绪,这一点毫无疑问。大多数人在一个黄色的房间比在一个深色的房间更感到愉悦松弛;一件红衣服在最凄凉的冬日也能给人带来温暖和振奋。而黑色却使人压抑。

5. 伦敦附近泰晤士河上曾有一座黑色的桥,在这座桥上自杀的人数比这一区任何一座桥都多。后来人们把它漆成绿色,企图自杀的人数立刻骤减;倘若将这座桥梁漆成粉红色或浅蓝色,下降幅度或许会更大。

6. 浅色或艳丽的色彩不仅使人更加愉快也更积极向上。事实证明,如果把工厂里的机器油漆成橘黄色而不是黑色或灰色,工人就会干得更勤奋、更出色,事故也会更少。

Keep On Singing别放弃歌唱

1. Like any good mother, when Karen found out that another baby was on the way, she did what she could to help her 3-year-old son, Michael, prepare for a new sibling. They find out that the new baby is going to be a girl, and day after day, night after night, Michael sings to his sister in Mommy’s tummy.

2. The pregnancy progresses normally for Karen, an active member of the Panther Creek United Methodist Church in Morristown, Tennessee. Then the labor pains come. Every five minutes... every minute. But Complications arise during delivery. Hours of labor. Would a C-section be required? Finally, Michael’s little sister is born. But she is in serious condition. With siren howling in the night, the ambulance rushes the infant to the neonatal intensive care unit at St. Mary’s Hospital in Knoxville, Tennessee.

3. The days inch by. The little girl gets worse. The pediatric specialist tells the parents, “There is very little hope. Be prepared for the worst.” Karen and her husband contact a local cemetery about a burial plot. They have fixed up a special room in their home for the new baby — now they plan a funeral.

4. Michael, keeps begging his parents to let him see his sister, “I want to sing to her,” he says. Week two in intensive care. It looks as if a funeral will come before the week is over. Michael keeps nagging about singing to his sister, but kids are never allowed in Intensive Care. But Karen makes up her mind. She will take Michael whether they like it or not.

5. If he doesn’t see his sister now, he may never see her alive. She dresses him in an oversized scrub suit and marches him into ICU. He looks like a walking laundry basket, but the head nurse recognizes him as a child and bellows, “Get that kid out of here now! No children are allowed.” The mother rises up strong in Karen, and the usually mild-mannered lady glares steel-eyed into the head nurse’s face, her lips a firm line. “He is not leaving until he sings to his sister!” Karen tows Michael to his sister’s bedside. He gazes at the tiny infant losing the battle to live. And he begins to sing. In the pure hearted voice of a 3-year-old, Michael sings:

6. “You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray — ”

7. Instantly the baby girl responds. The pulse rate becomes calm and steady.

8. Keep on singing, Michael. “You never know, dear, how much I love you. Please don’t take my sunshine away —” The ragged, strained breathing becomes as smooth as a kitten’s purr.
