你的朋友是你的快乐与哀愁
即使你的朋友真是一面镜子,请别要求他鉴照你的全部。当你进入一间挂满明镜的店铺,
每一面镜子在同一刻也只能映照你的某一面。
有的朋友是一座山,但请别贪婪地挖掘它内蕴的宝藏,
让他以生命的四季丰富你,让他以不变的笃定化育你。
有的朋友是一片海,但请别以为他永远都必须无穷的包容,
请不要好奇地打捞那沉在海底的隐痛。
让他的情绪如潮汐般陪伴你,让他的渊博贴近你生命的沙滩。
你需要一些朋友如阶梯,引导你不断向上,
但你也需要一些朋友如青草地,随时接受最疲惫时的你,
让你躺下歇息。
你的朋友是你的快乐与哀愁。
但那快乐的弦原就安在你的心里,是你邀他来弹拔而已,
而那哀愁的利刃原就佩在你身上,是你授它以柄罢了。
快乐是你,哀愁是你,你还能感激或埋怨谁呢?
亲人与你有者血缘的联系,伴侣与你有着婚姻的盟约。
至于那些不为什么而让你遇上了,给予你喜怒哀乐,
共同走过一段岁月的朋友,你说,
那难道不是生命中额外的礼物吗?
别离不是你失去一个朋友的时候,直到你心中没有他时,
你才失去了一个朋友。
当你昨日的朋友在今天的故事里遗忘了你,
而你仍铭记着畴日的欢愉,你说,
谁是真正失去了什么的人呢?
真正的朋友和你是一对鞋子,你和他一同前进,一同休息,
但他绝不想做你,而你也永远不可能是他。
没有人会将两只鞋子的鞋带缠捆在一起。
Translation for dear bro 0.5:
Even if your friend is a mirror, do not expect him to reflect every part of you.
Cos' when you enter a shop filled with mirrors, every one of them can only reflect a part of you at a time.
Some friends are like a mountain, but please do not dig for the treasure within it greedily.
Let its changes of seasons enrich your life.
Some friends are like an ocean, but please do not take its tolerance and generosity for granted.
Please do not pick on the hidden wound from the bottom of the ocean curiously.
Let its emotions of tides and depth of wisdom be with you.
You need some friends to be like stairs, to guide and bring you to greater heights.
But you also need some friends to be like the earth, to comfort and let your tired soul rest on it.
Your friends are your reasons to smile or cry.
But, it's also your choice to allow them to make you smile or cry.
So, Who can you asked to account for your happiness or sorrow?
Families are blooded-bonded with you;
Sponses are marriage-bonded with you.
Those who dunno-why and happen to appear in your life, giving you a reason to smile or cry, walking thru' the years with you and who we called friends,
Can you not say they are not a kind of bonus you received in life?
You do not lose a friend when you part.
You only lose a friend when you no longer keep him/her in your heart.
When your yester-friend forgets to include you in his/her story today,
yet you still remember the happy memories of yesteryears,
Who do you say, you or he/she, has lost something?
You and your friend are like a pair of shoes.
You progress together; you stop together.
But he/she will never want to be you, nor can you be him/her.
Nobody will tie the laces of the pair of shoes together.
