願做巴拿巴 「人為朋友捨命，人的愛心沒有比這個大的。」（約翰福音 15：13） Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. （John 15：13 ） 「一粒麥子不落在地裡死了，仍舊是一粒，若是死了，就結出許多子粒來。」（約12：24） Unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. （John 12：24）

這是一篇網路上的小短文，滿發人醒思的一些想法的調整，我想許多人與人之間的衝突，往往是出於對對方的不「了解」，或者是對自己的「了解」程度不夠，一但有了「了解」，其實許多的障礙都能夠突破的。我想多多了解自己，還有多多了解別人，還有試著敞開讓別人多多了解自己，這在建立任何的人際關係，都是滿重要的吧！和大家分享以下這篇小短文：
-----------------------------------
我終於了解－

我與最好的朋友

可以做任何事

或不做任何事

而一樣享受了最棒的時光

I've learned - that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.

　

我終於了解－

有時你以為會在你失意時踹你一腳的人

其實卻正是那個將幫助你重新站起來的人

I've learned - that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down will be the ones to help you get back up.

　

我終於了解－

有時候我憤怒

因我有權利憤怒

但這並不表示

我有權利殘忍

I've learned - that sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.

　

我終於了解－

真實的友誼會持續增長

即或遠隔千里

真實的愛亦然

I've learned -that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.

　

我終於了解－

有些人不照著你所期望的方式來愛你

並不表示他們沒有盡他們的一切來愛你

I've learned - that just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

　

我終於了解－

所謂成熟，比較和你擁有何種經歷

以及你從其中學到何事有關

而比較和你究竟歡度了多少個生日無關

I've learned - that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.

　

我終於了解－

你絕不可以對一個孩子說

他的夢想是不可能的，或是奇怪的

再沒有什麼比此更羞辱人的

而且，如果他們相信了你

更將是何等的悲劇呢！

I've learned - that you should never tell a child their dreams are unlikely or outlandish. Few things are more humiliating, and
what a tragedy it would be if they believed it.

　

我終於了解－

你的家人不會永遠幫著你

也許看來可笑，但那些與你無關的人

卻會關懷你，愛你，教你重新信任人

家庭不是一種肉身的關係

I've learned - that your family won't always be there for you. It may seem funny, but people you aren't related to can take care of you and love you and teach you to trust people again. Families aren't biological.



我終於了解－

不論一個朋友多好

總有一些時候他還是會傷到你

而你總得為此原諒他

I've learned - that no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.



我終於了解－

被人原諒不一定足夠

有時你也得學習原諒自己

I've learned - that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.
