Change
Leo Tolstoy once said, everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.
He is right. We always have great plans and dreams in our minds… too ready to achieve something grand that changes the world or benefits all of mankind .For example; we hate pollution and have made up our minds to find new energy sources that keep the environment clean. Yet we still litter on the ground. We complain about traffic jams, so we plan to build more highways to solve the problem, but it never occurs to us that our failure to follow traffic regulations is the leading cause of this situation. We are so concerned that the violence in the media has a bad impact on our children, we urge the government to set laws to protect them. But, do we, as adults, set a good example for our kids? We use nasty words and even spit on the ground in front of them, I dare to say, we harm more!
In my opinion, before we decide to change the world, we had better change ourselves first. As ordinary individuals, we do not have the power to change the world. But we can change our habit of littering, spitting, cussing, we can respect the environment around us, we must act as good models for our kids.
If each of us does all of these little things, all of us, millions and millions of individuals together, together we will be strong …strong enough to change our world!
So please, the next time you do something, think how your actions influence not only you, but those around you too, especially our children …and perhaps more importantly…our planet!
改變
列夫·托爾斯泰曾說過：每個(gè)人都想改變這個(gè)世界，但是沒有人想到改變自己。
他說的很有道理，我們每個(gè)人都心懷偉大時(shí)志向，時(shí)刻準(zhǔn)備去干一番能造福全人類的大事業(yè)。比如，我們痛恨環(huán)境污染，所以我們下定決心去開發(fā)新的更高效更干凈的能源來保護(hù)我們的環(huán)境，但是同時(shí)我們卻隨手亂扔垃圾;我們抱怨大城市的交通堵塞，計(jì)劃造更多的高速路來解決交通問題，但是我們從來沒有想過，如果我們能遵守交通規(guī)則話，那么這一問題是不是可以得到很大得緩解呢?我們擔(dān)心電視電影里面得暴力會(huì)對(duì)我們得孩子產(chǎn)生不良的影響，于是我們敦促政府通過立法來保護(hù)未成年人，但是我們這些大人又做得怎么樣呢?我們?yōu)槲覀兊南乱淮龊昧吮砺蕟?我們說粗話，甚至在孩子面前抽煙。不客氣地說，我們對(duì)孩子的不良影響更多!
在我看來，在我們打算改變這個(gè)世界之前，我們最好先改變一下自己。作為一個(gè)普通人，我們其實(shí)沒有改變這個(gè)世界的能力，但是我可以改變我們隨地扔垃圾，隨地吐痰的壞習(xí)慣， 我們應(yīng)該學(xué)會(huì)去保護(hù)環(huán)境，我們應(yīng)該為我們的孩子起好的表率作用。
如果我們每個(gè)人都能從小事起，那么千千萬萬個(gè)人力量匯聚在一起，那力量是強(qiáng)大的，足以改變這個(gè)世界。
朋友，當(dāng)您在做某一件事情的時(shí)候，請(qǐng)您想一想，您的行為會(huì)對(duì)您周圍的人產(chǎn)生怎樣的影響， 因?yàn)?，您的行為不單單影響到您自己，還有您周圍的人，更重要的是我們的孩子…甚至我們的世界。

We Are a Normal Member of the Big Family of Nature
Honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen. Today，we are gathering here to discuss a very hot issue. how to find harmony in a new age between man and nature? Where modern science and technology are concerned I am only a layman I have to say. However, living in this "new age" , seeing my dear ones suffering from respiratory diseases from time to time, finding the beautiful colors of green and blue are being replaced by that of gray and pale, and realizing that our mother planet is getting more and more unhealthy; I can't help trying to offer my idea and my trivial efforts to look for the answer of the question.
As the ancient Greek oracle goes: know thyself. I think in answering this above-mentioned question, this precondition is also very important.
Who are we? This is a question, which should be answered not only by those specialists, but also by every one of human beings.
Some people may proudly say: we are the masters of nature. It is true that the idea of "man can conquer nature" has dominated people's mind for years, and it is true, man has kept acting like a master and doing whatever things he wants for thousands of years. However, as the consequence of this kind of "leadership" , now the "master" seems to be confronted with problems that are far beyond his control. Facts are really very ample. Thegreen house effect leaves islands and cities along the coast, such as this oriental pearl-Shanghai, in danger of the disaster of being drowned; the holes of the ozone layer make the earth less suitable to live for some creatures including human beings; the phenomena of EL Nino and La Nina leave the land with serious flood and drought, and the diseases, caused by pollution, are increasing at an incredible speed... Seeing all these facts, can we still ignore the counterattack of nature? We are not the masters of nature. Facing all the disasters made by ourselves, we, mankind as a whole should realize that we are just a normal member of the big family of nature. Any mistreatment towards nature will meet only with the revenge from her.
By saying so, I do not mean we should give a sudden stop to any development. Because that will result in a threat to the existence of human society. I mean we should treat nature equally, leaving the chance of existence and development to nature as we are obtaining the same thing, and thus we will get the situation of win-win.
I am very pleased to find that now more and more people, from every corner of the planet, have come to realize that harmony with nature is the only way to universal and continuous progress and prosperity. And I think that is why we come here from all over the country to discuss this topic today.
I want to end my speech by quoting from Mr. Nixon. "Our destiny offers, not the cup of despair, but the chalice of opportunity." The future is not ours to see of course. However, by seizing firmly the opportunities, by knowing clearly about ourselves, we, human beings, can doubtlessly achieve the real harmony with nature!
Thank you.
我們只是自然大家庭中普通的一員
尊敬的評(píng)委，女士們、先生們。今天我們聚在一起討論一個(gè)熱門的話題:如何在新時(shí)代找到人與自然的和諧?談到科學(xué)技術(shù)，我必須承認(rèn)，我是個(gè)門外漢。但是，生活在這個(gè)“新時(shí)代”，看著自己親愛的人時(shí)刻遭受呼吸疾病的折磨，看著美麗的藍(lán)色和綠色被灰色和蒼白所代替，意識(shí)到我們的地球母親正越來越不健康，我忍不住要提出自己的主張，奉獻(xiàn)微薄的力量，去尋找這一問題的答案。
古希臘有這樣一個(gè)神諭:了解自己。我想在回答上述的問題時(shí)，這一先決條件是很重要的。
我們是誰?這是一個(gè)間題，不僅應(yīng)由專家來回答，而且應(yīng)該由每一個(gè)人來回答。
也許有人會(huì)自豪地說:我們是自然的主人。許多年來，“人定勝天”這一觀念已在許多人心中根深蒂固，這是事實(shí)。長期以來，人類以主人的姿態(tài)隨心所欲、為所欲為，這也是事實(shí)。不過，這種“主導(dǎo)”的后果是，今天所謂的“主人”面臨著自己無法控制的問題。證據(jù)是充足的。溫室效應(yīng)使島嶼和沿海城市，比如上海這顆東方明珠等，處于被海水侵吞的災(zāi)難危機(jī)之中;臭氧層的空洞使得地球不再適宜于居住，對(duì)其他動(dòng)物如此，對(duì)人類也一樣; 厄爾尼諾現(xiàn)象和拉尼那現(xiàn)象使地球早澇成災(zāi);污染所導(dǎo)致的疾病正以驚人的速度傳播著……看到這些現(xiàn)象，我們還能無視這自然的反擊嗎?我們不是自然的主人。面對(duì)著自己造成的災(zāi)難，我們，整個(gè)人類，應(yīng)該意識(shí)到我們只是自然大家族中普通的一員。任何對(duì)自然的虐待只能遭到來自自然的報(bào)復(fù)。
我這樣說，并不是指我們應(yīng)該馬上停止發(fā)展。因?yàn)檫@會(huì)導(dǎo)致對(duì)人類社會(huì)生存的威脅。我指的是我們應(yīng)該平等地對(duì)待自然，給自然以生存和發(fā)展的機(jī)會(huì)，就像我們自身所尋求的一樣。只有這樣，我們才會(huì)有一個(gè)皆大歡喜的境況。
我很高興地發(fā)現(xiàn)來自地球各個(gè)地方的越來越多的人，正逐步意識(shí)到與自然的和諧是不斷繁榮進(jìn)步的出路。這就是今天我們從全國吝地匯集在此討論這一話題的原因。
我想引用尼克松先生的話來結(jié)束我的發(fā)言:“我們的命運(yùn)給予的不是失望之杯，是機(jī)遇之博。”當(dāng)然，未來不是我們能夠預(yù)測的。不過，緊緊抓住機(jī)遇，清楚地了解自己，我們?nèi)祟?，就一定能達(dá)成與自然的和楷，謝謝。

Breathing with Dreams
I have a question for you. ‘Do you know how to breathe?’ Okay, I know what you are thinking now, “Girl, are you kidding me? Everybody knows how to breathe.” Actually, if I were you sitting down in there one year ago, I would think, “How did she make it to the final?”
Alright, seriously speaking, what I am talking about is “the art of breathing”, and it’s about breathing in a Yoga way: peacefully and always under control. What it reveals is the real essence of perseverance, “In order to achieve, sometimes, you need to wait.” And when it comes to things you really want in life, it is as hard as it could possibly be.
For me, singing is a life thing. When I am singing on the stage, I feel whole-heartedly involved, and the self-fulfillment it renders is inexplicably thrilling. But with all the realistic problems I need to face in life, all those I want seem too far to be true– so far that I am terrified that I will never ever be able to get there and that gradually I will be carried away by the currents and torrents of life. I’ve been drowned into this ambivalence for so long. Now, with a refined perspective towards self-realization, I am waiting, in a graceful posture, and knowing that I am going to get there. And on this, I should say, I owe Yoga a thank-you.
I still remember, about one year ago, I attended a Yoga course for the very first time. And to tell you the truth, I went there for a nice figure. However, after practicing for some time, I discovered that there was an ineffable inner-strength burgeoning sneakily in me while I totally focused. In order not to let go this significant power, I started to picture all I wanted in my mind while I was fully concentrating, for I believe the wings of imagination could make things possible. I learned to breathe with my dreams, shaping the eagerness into this elegant gesture of persisting.
And now, if you ask me what exactly is “the art of breathing”, I would say it is indeed “the art of living”. It combines the search of balance, the grace of patience, and the awareness of appreciation.
So even though feelings are tied up with life routines, I could still hold onto that free EGO which I have always adored: the girl who is singing under the spotlight, with all her heart and soul; the girl who is persevering with all she believes in and always feels grateful for what has been bestowed on her.
That girl is now standing right here in front of you, hoping that you are all as lucky as she is, living with dreams and love. No matter how tough things get, I tell myself, I tell myself that, every single thing I am doing now is every step closer to that very moment of my trajectory, just like every Yoga breath to every blossom moment of my life.
有夢(mèng)想的呼吸
我有個(gè)問題要問你。你知道怎么呼吸嗎?“好吧，我知道你現(xiàn)在在想什么，”女孩，你在跟我開玩笑嗎?每個(gè)人都知道如何呼吸，“實(shí)際上，如果我是你在那里坐了下來，一年前，我會(huì)想，”她是如何使它的最后?“
好吧，說正經(jīng)的，我所說的是“呼吸的藝術(shù)”，這是關(guān)于瑜伽的呼吸：和平的，總是在控制之下。它揭示的是毅力的真正本質(zhì)，“為了達(dá)到，有時(shí)，你需要等待”，當(dāng)它涉及到你真正想要的東西，它是盡可能的努力，因?yàn)樗赡苁恰?/p>
對(duì)我來說，唱歌是一種生活的東西。當(dāng)我在舞臺(tái)上唱歌，我覺得全心全意地參與和自我實(shí)現(xiàn)，它呈現(xiàn)是莫名的興奮。但所有的現(xiàn)實(shí)問題，我需要面對(duì)的生活中，所有那些我想太遠(yuǎn)是真的–到目前為止，我害怕，我永遠(yuǎn)無法到達(dá)那里，我會(huì)慢慢的由電流和人生的激流沖走。我已經(jīng)陷入這種矛盾這么久。現(xiàn)在，一個(gè)精致的自我實(shí)現(xiàn)的角度來看，我在等待，在一個(gè)優(yōu)雅的姿態(tài)，并知道我要去那里。在此，我要說，我欠了瑜伽的一封感謝信。
我還記得，大約一年前，我第一次參加了瑜伽課程。說實(shí)話，我去那里是為了一個(gè)好身材。然而，練了一段時(shí)間后，我發(fā)現(xiàn)有一種不可言喻的內(nèi)在力量，新興的偷偷在我完全集中。為了不讓這種強(qiáng)大的力量，我開始想象所有我想在我的腦海里，而我是完全集中，因?yàn)槲蚁嘈畔胂罅Φ某岚蚩梢允故虑槌蔀榭赡?。我學(xué)會(huì)了與我的夢(mèng)想一起呼吸，塑造了這一優(yōu)雅姿態(tài)的渴望。
而現(xiàn)在，如果你問我什么是“呼吸的藝術(shù)”，我會(huì)說它確實(shí)是“生活的藝術(shù)”。它結(jié)合了平衡的尋找，耐心的恩典，以及欣賞的意識(shí)。
所以即使感情與生活，我仍然可以保持自由的自我，我很喜歡：是誰在聚光燈下唱歌的女孩，用她所有的心和靈魂;女孩堅(jiān)持她相信永遠(yuǎn)感恩所賜予她的。
那個(gè)女孩現(xiàn)在正站在你面前，希望你能像她一樣幸運(yùn)，生活在夢(mèng)想和愛中。不管事情有多艱難，我告訴自己，我告訴自己，我現(xiàn)在所做的每一件事都是在我人生軌跡的那一刻更接近一步，就像每一次瑜伽呼吸對(duì)我生命中的每一刻。
