生活充满了考验和不可预知性。有些人在困难面前一蹶不振,怨天尤人,而有些人却能走出困境走向成功。我们究竟该怎样面对生活,该怎样把握自己?
Sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, and unfair at first, but upon reflection you find that without overcoming those obstacles you never would have realized your potential, strength, willpower, or heart.①
Illness, injury, lost moments of true greatness, and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, whatever they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved road to nowhere. It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless.
If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart, forgive them, for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to whom you open your heart.②
Make every day count.③ Appreciate every moment and take from those moments everything that you possibly can for you may never be able to experience it again.
Talk to people that you have never talked to before, and listen to what they have to say. You can make anything you wish of your life.
Create your own life and then go out and live it with absolutely no regrets.

行文点评
本文是一篇哲理性的小散文,整体内容可以分为两部分。前面三段,着重描写了生活中的考验以及这些考验对于我们的重要性。后面几段则向读者们提出了一些建议,呼吁人们珍惜生活,创造自己的生活,点明文章的主旨照应了题目。
本文用词考究,句式优美,长短句交错。复合句的使用使得文章更加赏心悦目,排比反复的修辞手法也为文章增色不少。
好文妙译
人生要靠自己创造
有时候一些发生在你身上的事情起初看起来很可怕、很痛苦、很不公平,但是经过深思熟虑你会发现,如果没有克服过这些困难的话,你就永远不会意识到自己的潜力、力量、毅力和勇气。
疾病、伤害、真正伟大时刻的错失以及做了一些愚蠢至极的事情,所有这些事情的出现都是在考验你灵魂的极限。如果不经历这些小的考验,无论它们是什么,你的生活将会像一条通向碌碌无为的平坦之路。它也许是安全而舒适的,但也是枯燥和毫无意义的。
如果某些人伤害了你,背叛了你或者是刺痛了你的心,请原谅他们,因为是他们帮助你学会了什么叫信任,帮助你懂得要谨慎选择你要交心的人。
珍惜每一天。珍惜每一刻,并且带走每一刻所能得到的东西,因为你再也不可能重复这个过程了。
跟那些你从来没有说过话的人说话,并且倾听他们的话语。你可以做到任何你想做的事情。
创造自己的生活,然后走出去,去毫无遗憾地享受生活吧。
