reach the top.

gotta let the feelings show.
imagination is the key,
'cause you are your own destiny.
you never should be lonely,
when time is on your side.
don't you know it's true what they say,
things are sent to try you.
but your time's coming around,
so don't you stop trying.

things happen for a reason.

不要停顿，永不放弃，
高昂起头
到达顶峰。
让世界看见你的收获，
找回自己。
坚持自己想达到的境地，
坚持自我。
当世界的重担压到了你的肩头时，
笑一笑，让它去。
如果有人打击你，
走过去，不要回头，
你只须负责自己。
难道你不知道他们说的是真的，
生活，不容易，
但你的时机将会来到，
千万别停滞不进取。

当世界仿佛变得太艰难时，
找回自己。

享受生活能带来的好时光。
让这一切留在你心里，
得让自己的感情流露。
幻想就是答案，
因为你就是自己的命运。
你永远不必孤独，
当时间支持着你。
难道你不知道他们说的是真的，
这些事都是为了考验你。
但你的时机将会来到，
千万别停滞不进取。
难道你不知道他们说的是真的，
事情发生都有道理。
但你的时机将会来到，
千万别停滞不进取。
A friend of mine named Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it.
"Is this your car, Mister?" he said.
Paul nodded. "My brother gave it to me for Christmas." The boy was astounded. "You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing? Boy, I wish . . ." He hesitated.
Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the lad said jarred Paul all the way down to his heels.
"I wish," the boy went on, "That I could be a brother like that."
Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, then impulsively he added, "Would you like to take a ride in my car?"
"Oh yes, Id love that."
After a short ride, the boy turned with his eyes aglow, said, "Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?"
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the lad wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. "Will you stop where those two steps are?" the boy asked.
He ran up the steps. Then in a little while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sat him down on the bottom step, then sort of squeezed up against him and pointed to the car.
"There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day Im gonna give you one just like it . . . then you can see for yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that Ive been trying to tell you about." Paul got out and lifted the lad to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began a memorable holiday ride. That Christmas Eve, Paul learned
Santa's Beard CopyRight
He wasn't too good with a razor
and every time he would try
Kris Kringle would cut himself shaving,
so badly it caused him to cry.
The townspeople laughed when they saw him CopyRight
with cut marks all over his face.
He felt so embarrassed and foolish
he'd lower his head in disgrace.
So one day he threw out his razor,
and all of the townspeople cheered!
No longer would Santa be shaving.
Instead he was growing a beard!
But though he has given up shaving
and grown out a beard white and thick,
most folks still remember those cut marks
and that's why they call him "Saint Nick."
