文化剪影 | 圣诞节最重要的一点,90%的人还不知道!

 

提到圣诞,你第一时间能想到的是什么?

是挂满装饰的松树,

是充满节日氛围的歌曲,

还是互赠礼物的传统?

如果提到圣诞只能想到以上,

你离真正的圣诞还有点距离。

一起来看看关于圣诞精神的分享,

认识圣诞的真正意义。

 

 

板块一:Christmas Spirit – Its Real Meaning

 

Christmas isn’t as easy as it seems

圣诞不是表面看起来的那么简单

Christmas is a wonderful time of the year.

圣诞,是一年中的最美妙的时节。

Unfortunately, it is also a difficult emotional holiday for many people.

然而,圣诞也是个让很多人陷入困难情绪的节假日。

There is pressure to enter into the festive spirit, whether you care to or not.

无论你对这个节日是否上心,你都似乎被一种压力推着你去融入这种节日的氛围。

We think of Christmas as a time of getting together, but many people feel lonely during the holiday season; this gives rise to stress and even depression.

我们把圣诞节看作一个家人、朋友相聚的时刻,但很多人却会在这段时节感到孤独,这反而引发精神紧张甚至沮丧情绪。

Also, today everyone is under pressure to spend so much money.

而且,现如今一到圣诞节人人都面临着各种花销的压力。

It feels like we are losing sight of the original and most important aspect of Christmas.

这带来一种感觉,似乎人们越来越忽略圣诞节最原本的也是最重要的一面。

Is commercialism stealing the spiritual meaning of Christmas?

因此,我们要问一个问题,圣诞节的商业气息是不是正让人逐渐忽略它的精神内核?

Have we lost the most valuable aspect of the Christmas spirit?

到底,我们是否已经失去了圣诞精神中最为宝贵的一面?

 

How should we define “The Christmas Spirit”?

我们该如何定义“圣诞精神”

So what defines the true meaning of Christmas?

因此,圣诞的真正意义要用什么来定义呢?

Is Christmas just parties, gifts, and family time?

圣诞,仅仅是各种派对、节日礼物,或者家庭聚会吗?

Or is it best described as just that good feeling you get at this time of the year?

或者,仅仅是你在这年节中所能收获的美好感觉?

To me, above all, Christmas is a condition of the heart.

与我而言,最重要的,圣诞节应该是内心的一种状态。

Until one feels the spirit of Christmas, there is no Christmas.

人如果不能领悟圣诞的精神要义,那他就不曾真正体验过圣诞节。

We must, therefore, appreciate the real meaning and embrace its true spirit:

因此,我们须得体会圣诞真正的意义,和接纳它的实际内涵:

 

Giving去给予

In order to embrace the true meaning of Christmas, we need to reach down within ourselves and be willing to give ourselves and others our love.

为了接纳圣诞的真正意义,我们需要触及内心的自我,和甘于把我们的爱心给予我们自己和他人。

The gifts we give are a symbol of our love, not an obligation.

我们送出给别人的礼物,只是爱心的一种象征,而不是一种义务。

As we give, so we should reflect upon the fact that no gift can truly ever equal the love we give to another person and the time spent together with them.

因此,当我们给别人送出礼物时,我们应该明白一个事实:不论给出的礼物轻或重,都比不上我们为对方付出的爱和时间。

 

Appreciating去感恩
Appreciation is so important.

学会感恩非常重要。

So many feel dissatisfied with their lives.

有很多人对自己的生活感到不满。

We focus on all the things we want to have.

是因为我们的眼睛总盯着我们想要拥有的东西。

Yet, we spend almost no time appreciating what we already have and feeling grateful for it.

然而,我们几乎不曾花过时间去欣赏我们已经拥有的东西,也很少为之感恩。

Gratitude, appreciation for what we have and a loving heart, these are what the Christmas spirit is all about.

学会感恩、学会欣赏我们拥有的东西,以及一颗充满爱的心,这些,就是圣诞精神的全部关键。

 

Doing service 去服务他人
Embracing the spirit of Christmas also means giving to those most in need.

拥抱圣诞的精神同时也意味着为有需要的人作出奉献。

Doing some service for someone in need or even anonymously leaving a donation.

为有需要的人提供服务(帮助),甚至是匿名地进行捐献。

Such actions demonstrate an understanding of the real nature of Christmas.

这些行动都是领悟了圣诞精神本质的一种表现。

We can enjoy this period more fully when we help others who are in need.

在我们向那些有需要的人提供过帮助后,我们更能充分地享受这段时节。

 

 

Let’s embrace the Christmas spirit!

所以,来一起拥抱真正的圣诞精神吧!

Christmas is a time for reflection.

圣诞,是一个省察内心的时机。

It is a charitable time, a time for kindness and joy.

是人们慷慨施舍的时间,也是传扬善良和分享喜悦的时间。

The true spirit of Christmas is evidenced best in a generous heart.

真正的圣诞精神,见证于每一颗慷慨的心。

And, just like life, Christmas becomes what we decide to make it.

而圣诞节,就正如同生活过得怎么样,取决于我们内心的认为。
