Ladies and gentlemen,good afternoon!i’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech.today my topic is“youth”.i hope you will like it,and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.
first i want to ask you some questions:
1、do you know what is youth?
2、how do you master your youth?
youth is not a time of life,it is a state of mind;it is not rosy cheeks,red lips and supple knees,it is a matter of the emotions:it is the freshness;it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite,for adventure over the love of ease.this often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20.nobody grows old merely by a number of years.we grow old by deserting our ideals.
years wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.worry,fear,self–distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
whether 60 of 16,there is in every human being‘s heart the lure of wonders,the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living.in the center of your heart and my heart there’s a wireless station:so long as it receives messages of beauty,hope,cheer,courage and power from men and from the infinite,so long as you are young.
Thank you!
女士們,先生們:
下午好!我很高興站在這里給你們一個簡短的演講。今天我的主題是“青春與勵志”。我希望你能喜歡它,在你年輕的時候,發(fā)現(xiàn)它的重要性,更珍惜它。
首先我想問你一些問題:
1,你知道什么是青春?
2,如何掌握你的青春呢?
青春不是生命的一段時間,而是一種精神狀態(tài),它不是玫瑰色的臉頰,紅色的嘴唇和柔軟的膝蓋,這是一個重要的情感:它是新鮮的,它是生命的深泉在涌流。
青春意味著戰(zhàn)勝懦弱的那股大丈夫氣概,對冒險的愛。這通常存在于一個60歲的人比一個20歲的青年更多一點。人老不僅僅是許多年。我們理想的毀滅,人類才出現(xiàn)了變老。
歲月,衰微只及肌膚;熱忱拋卻,頹廢必致靈魂。擔(dān)心,恐懼,自我不信任導(dǎo)致心靈扭曲,意氣如灰。
無論是60歲的16歲,每個人的心都有奇跡般的誘惑,孩提般求知的渴望和游戲的快樂的生活。你的心和我的心的中心有一個無線電臺:只要它接收消息的美、希望、鼓勵、勇氣和力量的男性和無限的,只要你是年輕人。
謝謝大家!
