【宁静的心 Peace of mind】
Once,as a young man full of exuberant fancy,I undertook to draw up a catalogue of the acknowledged "goods"of life.As other men sometimes tabulate lists of properties they own or would like to own,I set down my inventory of earthly desirables:health,love,beauty,talent,power,riches,and fame.
曾经,当我是一个充满了丰富幻想的年轻人时,着手起草了一份被公认为人生“幸福”的目录。就像别人有时会将他们所拥有或想要拥有的财产列成表一样,我将世人希求之物列成表:健康、爱情、美丽、才智、权力、财富和名誉。
