                       1. The Two Passions

Many people feel at a loss when asked the question “What have you lived for?” I often ask myself this question, especially when facing challenges. It can prevent me from idling, and encourage me to make greater progress. My answer to this question is: the longing for love and the search for knowledge. The two passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have guided my life.

First, love makes the world warm and the life peaceful. In my daily life, I found that love makes a man full of confidence to overcome difficulties; love can help a man to get rid of loneliness even in an isolated place; love can make people feel cooler. Second, knowledge can empower people to love the world we live and the people we live with in a practical way. Without knowledge, we still live in the dark, cold and poor world; without knowledge, we can only wait in vain for God’s bless.

The longing for love and the search for knowledge make my common life meaningful, and I would gladly live it again if the chance were offered to me again. However, we all know it is impossible for everyone to live twice, so what we can do is try to make every day count.

                     两种热情

当被问及“你活着为了什么?”这个问题时,很多人都不知如何回答。这也是一个我经常问自己的问题,特别是当我面临挑战的时候。想起这个问题使我不会浪费时间,鼓励我取得更大的进步。我对这个问题的回答是:渴望爱和渴求知识。这两种简单但却非常坚定的热情,指引着我的生命。

首先,爱使世界变得温暖,生活变得安宁。在我日常生活中,我发现爱能使一个人充满战胜困难的自信;爱可以使人即使在一个荒岛上也不感到孤独;爱可以让人们感到凉爽。第二,知识使人们能够切实地爱我们生活的世界和我们身边的人。没有知识,我们只能徒劳地等待上帝的恩惠。

对于爱的渴望和知识的追求,使我的平凡的生活变得有意义。如果再给我一次机会,我非常愿意再活一次。但我们都清楚,任何一个人都不可能活两次。所以,我们能够做的只有尽量使每一天都过得充实,有价值,有意义。
