Active happiness -- not mere satisfaction or contentment

積極的快樂(lè)--并非單純的滿(mǎn)意或知足

often comes suddenly, like an April shower or the unfolding of a bud.

通常不期而至，就像四月里突然下起的春雨，或是花蕾的突然綻放。

Then you discover what kind of wisdom has accompanied it.

然后，你就會(huì)發(fā)覺(jué)與快樂(lè)結(jié)伴而來(lái)的究竟是何種智慧。

The grass is greener; bird songs are sweeter;

草地更為青翠，鳥(niǎo)鳴更為甜美，

the shortcomings of your friends are more understandable and more forgivable.

朋友的缺點(diǎn)也變的更能讓人理解、寬容。

Happiness is like a pair of eyeglasses correcting your spiritual vision.

快樂(lè)就像一副眼鏡，可以矯正你的精神視力。

Nor are the insights of happiness limited to what is near around you.

快樂(lè)的視野并不僅限于你周?chē)氖挛铩?/p>

Unhappy, with your thoughts turned in upon your emotional woes, your vision is cut short as though by a wall.

當(dāng)你不快樂(lè)時(shí)，你的思維陷入情感上的悲哀，你的眼界就像被一道墻給阻隔住了。

Happy, the wall crumbles.

而當(dāng)你快樂(lè)時(shí)，這道墻會(huì)砰然倒塌。

The long vista is there for the seeing, the ground at your feet,

你的眼界變的更為寬廣，你腳下的大地，

and the world about you-people, thoughts, emotions, and pressures-are now fitted into the larger scene.

你身邊的世界，包括人、思想、情感和壓力，現(xiàn)在都融入了更為廣闊的景象之中。

Everything assumes a fairer proportion.

其間每件事物的比例都更加合理。

And here is the beginning of wisdom.

而這就是睿智的起始。
