Consider……YOU. In all time before now and in all time to come, there has never been and will never be anyone just like you.You are unique in the entire history and future of the universe.Wow!Stop and think about that.You're better than one in a million, or a billion, or a gazillion……
You are the only one like you in a sea of infinity!
You're amazing!You're awesome!And by the way, TAG, you're it. As amazing and awesome as you already are, you can be even more so.Beautiful young people are the whimsy of nature, but beautiful old people are true works of art.But you don't become“beautiful”just by virtue of the aging process.
Real beauty comes from learning, growing, and loving in the ways of life. That is the Art of Life.You can learn slowly, and sometimes painfully, by just waiting for life to happen to you.Or you can choose to acceIerateyour growth and intentionaIIy devour life and all it offers.You are the artist that paints your future with the brush of today.
Paint a Masterpiece.
God gives every bird its food, but he doesn't throw it into its nest. Wherever you want to go, whatever you want to do, it's truly up to you.
逸 名
試想一下……你空前絕后!無論過去還是將來都不會有一個和你完全一樣的人。在整個歷史和宇宙中,你也是獨一無二的。噢!想想吧,你是一百萬人、十億人、一兆人中……最好的。
在浩瀚的大千世界中,你絕無僅有!
你令人驚異!令人敬畏!沒錯,這就是你。生來不同凡響、卓越的你,還可以更加強大。美麗的年輕人是大自然的奇跡,美麗的老人是藝術(shù)家的杰作。而你卻不會隨著年齡的增長而自然變得“美麗”。
真正的美麗源于在生命中不斷地學習、成長和關(guān)愛。這就是生命的藝術(shù)。你可以選擇等候命運的安排,緩慢地、有時甚至是痛苦地學習。你也可以選擇使自己快速成長,如饑似渴地享用生活提供的一切。你就是用今天的畫筆繪制未來宏偉藍圖的藝術(shù)家。
創(chuàng)作一幅杰作吧。
