三、Help Yourself through the Hard Times
1、Some years ago I had what most would call the American Dream: a thriving construction business, a comfortable home, two new cars and a sailboat. Moreover, I was happpily married. I had it all.几年前,我拥有大多数人称之为美国梦想的东西:一份蒸蒸日上的建筑生意,一个舒适的家,两辆新车和一艘帆船,此外,我婚姻幸福。我拥有这一切。
2、Then the stock market crashed, and suddenly no one was looking at the houses I’d built. Months of murderous interest payment gobbled up my savings. I couldn’t make ends meet and lay awake nights in a cold sweat. Just when I though things couldn’t get worse, my wife announced that she wanted a divorce.接着,股市垮了,突然间再没人看我修的那些房子。连续几个月支付要命的利息,耗尽了我的积蓄。我入不敷出,经常彻夜无眠,一身冷汗。就在我认为事情不可能变得更糟的时候,我太太宣布她想离婚。
3、With no idea what to do next, I resolved literally to “sail off into the sunset,” following the coastline from Connecticut to Florida. But somewhere off New Jersey I turned due east, straight out to sea. Hours later, I climbed up on the stern rail and watched the dark Atlantic slip beneath the hull. How easy it would be to let the water take me, I thought.无所适从的我决心真正驾船“向夕阳行驶”,沿着海岸线从康涅狄格州驶向佛罗里达州。但是在离新泽西巷的地方,我转向正东方,直接驶往大海。几小时后,我爬上船尾的栏杆,注视着从船体下面滑过的黑沉沉的大西洋海水。我想让海水淹死是多么容易的一件事。
4、Suddenly the boat plummeted between two swells, knocking me off balance. I grabbed the rail, my feet dragging in icy brine, and just managed to haul myself back on board. Shaken, I thought, what’s happening to me? I don’t want to die. From that moment, I knew I had to see things through. My old life was gone. Somehow I’d have to build a new one.突然,帆船笔直地落在两个巨浪之间,使我失去了平衡。我手抓住 栏杆,脚浸在冰冷的海水里,勉强把自己拉回船上。震惊之余,我想,我这是怎么了?我不想死。从那一刻起,我知道我必须看穿万物。我从前的生活一去不复返了,必须得想办法自己重建新的生活。
5、Everyone, at some point, will suffer a loss-the loss of loved ones. Good health, a job. “It’s your desert experience’-a time of feeling barren of options, even hope,” explains Patrick Ddl Zoppo, a psychologist and bereavement specialist with the Archdiocese of New York. “The important thing is not to allow yourself to be stranded in the desert.”每个人,在某个
