In our life, more often than not, each of us has to make various choices. Whatever decision we make, we should bear the principle that the decision is made on the basis of our willing in mind. University students, for example, have to face a hard and crucial decision upon job-hunting after graduation. Between a rewarding job with no interest and a favorite job with lower pay, our parents or friends may advise us to choose the former one, insisting that when there is a high wage we may have the passion to do the work. However, that passion is short and will disappear quickly. Conversely, for the things we are interested in, we’ll try our best to do it and work more smoothly. For all of us, no one can live our life instead of ourselves. Therefore, I arrive at the conclusion that the most important thing in our life is to follow our own heart and do what we want to do. 【译文】 走自己的路 伟大的意大利诗人但丁曾经说过，“走自己的路，让别人说去吧。”这句箴言告诉我们的 是无论我们做什么，都必须遵循自己的意愿，而不应让别人的意见淹没了自己内心的声音。 在我们的生活中，我们经常面临各种各样的选择。不论我们做出什么样的选择，我们必 须牢记一条原则，就是这个决定必须是在我们心甘情愿的前提下做出的。例如，对大学生来 说，毕业后的择业是一个艰难而至关重要的选择。在一个收入丰厚但你却没有任何兴趣的工 作和一个你很感兴趣但收入较低的工作之间，我们的父母或者朋友或许会建议我们选择前 者。他们认为有了高收入，我们就会有热情去做这份工作。然而，这种热情是短暂的，而且 很快就会消失。相反，对于我们感兴趣的事情，我们会尽全力去完成
