美文阅读

By Abdul Wahab Khokhar

雨天，不同的人对它有着不同的诠释。或是忧郁，或是浪漫，或是怀旧。它不同于晴天，而是一种以含蓄的方式来表达它独有的一种美。雨天的每一个瞬间，正如连拍的艺术组照。

Rain is one of the most beautiful moments of nature. Rain is the falling of water from the clouds coming back to the earth, which is taken indirectly by the sun.

Rain is a very beautiful moment that can enhance any person, and is able to make many people to admit it as a great blessing of God bestowed upon man by him in some specific time.

Nature is beautiful and it has many forms, and scenes, each of which is different to one another and varies in their beauty. Rain is one of them that give a real feeling of happiness and gratitude in a sad or mournful time.

“Nature like man sometimes weeps for gladness” (Disraeli)

By the grace of God, I’ve been able to see many scene and many beauties of nature. Rain is only the most beautiful and relief giving moment in the time of dolefulness. I can’t forget the rainy day that I spent with my friends some days ago.

I still remember each of its moment, and I don’t think that I would forget that fascinating moments. That day I came from school, back to home and was much tired because of continuous full length papers. I was too much depressed because of my performance, which was good but not excellent, even after continuous and hard struggle. I came back to home after relaxing few minutes, washed my face with addition to ablution and took a bath. Even the water was too much hot that even after taking bath I didn’t feel too much cold. That day was a summer day with burning heat.

After bath, I offered prayer and ate something. When I was free, I really thought,

as if it would have rained. That thought was too much adorable that was enjoying a cold water rain with no more heat. After that I look to the sun with its full light and sky with no clouds, this made my thoughts crushed into the garbage.

“The rain in the burning heat of summer is a blessing of God”

That time it was being realized that rain is not just water; rather it is a big relief and a great blessing of Allah Almighty, in the burning heat of summer. The burning heat, hot shinning sun and no clouds in the sky were the proof for no chances of rain.

Even at that time, I didn’t know why but I still wanting to enjoy the rain, as if it would rain because I’m saying. I shunt off my thoughts and went into my room and started thinking that why is there this much heat and un-reliable time? Why there is no rain and why we are not being able to see the heaven’s most beautiful eyes? And why we are not being able to enjoy the best part of the beauty?

“The best part of the beauty is that which no picture can describe”

But then I thought and clicked my mind that it is due to sins of humanity which is careless of many things, not knowing its consequence. I was just thinking about that then I prayed to God to forgive us for our sins and take away that hellish exam of heat and hot weather back. Consequently, when I reached up on the 2nd storey of my house and went outside to the terrace, then I saw that most of the sunlight was gone and there were lot of clouds appearing in the sky. Suddenly water dropped on my nose and I became too much happy, knowing that it began to rain today.

“He send rain on the just and the unjust” (New-Testament)

Suddenly, it rained and millions of drops of water fell on me. I was smiling and I don’t think anything else. This moment brought a smile on my face, that day. All the heat was gone and I was just thanking God for this blessing with a feeling of gratitude. All that time it was looking like that now even the earth was thirsty for water, flowery buds were waiting for many season to came and then to bloom.

“The daily showers rejoice the thirsty earth, and bless the flowery buds” (Prior) I’ve experienced many other rains in my life but it was the most memorable because it came in the need of hour. This rainy day was most memorable for me and after the rain I was able to enjoy even more due to open, dairy, and cold weather while I was seeing the rainbow formed by the rays of the sunlight. Then the fair weather came after the rain which made me to rejoice even more and enjoy life.

“After rain cometh fair weather”

This rain was very enjoyable and I can’t forge it for the reason it was enjoyment plus my necessity, and Allah Almighty heard and also did what I said. It’s really greatness of God. Rain is really a great blessing of God.

“Rain showers my spirit and waters my soul”

At the end I conclude mu essay by saying that the rain is grace, rain is the sky condescending to earth, without rain, and there would be no life. Rain gives new life to the whole atmosphere. It is the well-known and beautiful phenomena of nature and is charming, fascinating, ravishing, adoring and joyful beauty.

学会原谅，过更好的生活

When we are born, we are unblemished. As we grow, wedevelop many complexities due to many influences in our lives.During childhood, we are repeatedly discouraged, chided, andin some cases, abused. As we grow older, we develop our ownversion of right and wrong. We create a world of our own.

当我们出生时，我们是纯洁无瑕的。当我们长大了，生活中的很多因素影响着我们，使我们变得复杂。在孩童时，我们常常遭到阻止、指责和责骂。随着年龄增长，我们有了自己的是非观，我们有了我们自己的世界。

Our brain collects and retains all visual, auditory information from the moment we are born and tothe smallest of the details. Apart from our brain having memory, cells in our body, in billions, havetheir own memory. In other words, our body store both physiological and psychologicalmemories. We are complex emotional beings in nature compared to any other living animal.

从出生那刻起，我们的大脑就收集和保存着所有的听到的和看到的信息，以及那些极小的细节。不仅我们的大脑有记忆，我们身体中的数十亿个细胞也有记忆。换句话说，我们的身体既有生理记忆，也有心理记忆。我们天生就比其它生物的情感更为复杂。

Apparently, physical and psychological memories strongly influence our emotions! Interestingly,we can create, store, and release emotion like energy. Moreover, if we do not process ouremotions properly and suppressed for long time, they can find a way out violently and unexpectedly.

显然，身体和心理的记忆强烈地影响着我们的情感！有趣地是，我们可以创造、储存情感，还可以像释放能量一样释放情感。然而，若我们不能妥善地处理好我们的情感，长期地压抑着情感，它们可能会猛然的迸发出来。

Unfortunately, we carry our guilt throughout our lives effecting ever-increasing burden on ourshoulders. We become heavy with guilt and anger for things we could or

did not achieve, forthings we cannot have, to cite few examples. Evidently, everyone carry his or her own sack ofguilt and anger.

不幸地是，我们一辈子带着内疚的情感，使我们的包袱越来越重。比如，对那些我们得到或得不到的东西，对那些我们不能拥有的东西，都充满了内疚与愤怒的情感。显然，每个人都有一麻袋的内疚和愤怒。

One must question our nature of accumulating and carrying our guilt and anger until the end.Both guilt and anger are useless for us. They give us no advantage. Therefore, one may ask; isthere a way to put down the sack form our weary shoulders? It is possible, indeed. Importantly,since our guilt and anger inside us neither addressed nor given attention, they are stored.Actually, we should process and address our emotions in order to remove from our system. Wecannot just wish them away.

人们必须质疑我们不断积压或产生的内疚与愤怒的本质。内疚和愤怒是没有用的，对我们无任何益处。因此，也许有人会问：有没有方法让我们放下压在我们脆弱的肩上的这个包袱？答案是，有的。重点是，我们的内疚和愤怒的情感既没有被释放也没有被重视，而是被储存了。实际上，我们应该处理并释放我们的情感，这样才能把它们从我们自身消除。我们不能只是希望它们消失。

In fact, by acknowledging their presence and providing a channel for them to dissipate, we candissolve our emotions gradually. Taking drugs, consuming alcohol only aggravates situation. Theyonly provide transientsolace. Is there a better way to unload our burden? Luckily, we havenatural gift to process our feeling and emotions. Forgiveness stands first of all other naturalremedies.

其实，承认它们的存在，并为其提供一个消散的通道，我们才能逐渐化解这些情感。吸毒、饮酒只会使我们的状况变得更遭。这样也只能提供短暂的慰藉。有没有更好的方法来卸下包袱呢？很幸运，我们天生就有处理感受和情感的能力。在所有自然疗法中，原谅首当其冲。

Indeed, there is no better way than forgiving ourselves. Notwithstanding, we should learn to readilyforgive others. When we learn to forgive ourselves, we also naturally forgive others.

确实没有比原谅自己更好的办法了。尽管如此，我们应学会欣然地原谅他人。

当我们学会原谅自己，也就自然地会原谅他人了。

In summary, there is no benefit carrying our years of emotional baggage. By forgiving, we canthrow away the emotional baggage we carry for years, if not decades. Forgive your pastmistakes. The moment you start forgiving, you feel lot lighter and years of heaviness liftedmagically! To your surprise, you start feeling lot energetic and optimistic in your daily life.

总之，背着多年的情感包袱对我们毫无益处。原谅，可以让我们丢掉背了多年的情感包袱。原谅过去所犯的错。而从开始原谅的那刻起，你会感觉轻松了许多，多年的沉重包袱也神奇的不见了！更让人惊喜的是，你从此开始感觉到每天的生活精力充沛且乐观向上。
