The tree was again lonely and sad.
樹再次陷入孤單和悲傷之中。
One hot summer day, the boy returned and the tree was delighted. "Come and play with me!" the tree said. "I am sad and getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?" "Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy." So the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time. The tree was happy, but it was not true.
一年夏天，男孩回來了，樹太快樂了：“來呀！孩子，來和我玩呀?！蹦泻s說：“我心情不好，一天天老了，我要揚帆出海，輕松一下，你能給我一艘船嗎？”蘋果樹說：“把我的樹干砍去，拿去做船吧！”于是男孩砍下了她的樹干，造了條船，然后駕船走了，很久都沒有回來。樹好快樂……但不是真的。
Finally, the boy returned after he left for so many years. "Sorry, my boy. But I don't have anything for you anymore. No more apples for you..." the tree said.
許多年過去，男孩終于回來，蘋果樹說：“對不起，孩子，我已經沒有東西可以給你了，我的蘋果沒了。”
"I don't have teeth to bite," the boy replied.
男孩說：“我的牙都掉了，吃不了蘋果了。”
"No more trunk for you to climb on."
蘋果樹又說：“我再沒有樹干，讓你爬上來了。”
"I am too old for that now," the boy said.
男孩說：“我太老了，爬不動了?！?/div>
"I really can't give you anything... the only thing left is my dying roots," the tree said with tears.
“我再也沒有什么給得出手了……，只剩下枯死下去的老根，”樹流著淚說。
"I don't need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years." The boy replied.
男孩說：“這么多年過去了，現在我感到累了，什么也不想要，只要一個休息的地方?！?/div>
"Good! Old tree roots are the best place to lean on and rest. Come, Come sit down with me and rest." The boy sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears...
“好?。±细亲钸m合坐下來休息的，來啊，坐下來和我一起休息吧！”男孩坐下來，蘋果樹高興得流下了眼淚……
This is a story of everyone. The tree is our parent. When we were young, we loved to play with Mom and Dad... When we grown up, we left them, and only came to them when we need something or when we are in trouble.
這就是我們每個人的故事。這顆樹就是我們的父母。小時候，我們喜歡和爸爸媽媽玩……長大后，我們就離開他們，只在需要什么東西或者遇到麻煩的時候，才回到他們身邊。
No matter what, parents will always be there and give everything they could to make you happy. You may think that the boy is cruel to the tree but that's how all of us are treating our parents.
無論如何，父母永遠都在那兒，傾其所有使你快樂。你可能認為這個男孩對樹很殘酷，但這就是我們每個人對待父母的方式。
Take time out during the day for quiet time to listen to your inner voice. You may want to use your quiet time to meditate or pray.
白天花些時間出去，獨自傾聽自己的心聲。你可能想利用這段安靜的時間沉思或祈禱。
However you use this time, the key is to shut out all of the noise around you by focusing deep within yourself.
無論如何利用這段時間，關鍵是要排除周圍所有的噪音，關注自己的內心深處。
Breathing deeply during quiet time will also help you focus. I know it's hard to find quiet time during a particularly busy day, but it's so important — even if it's just 10 minutes a day and you have to sneak away to get it.
安靜的時間進行深呼吸也能幫你集中注意力。我知道在特別忙碌的日子找到安靜的時間很難，然而這很重要——即使一天只有10分鐘，你也要溜開抓住它。
Quiet time can really make a difference in your life. It enables you to hear God speaking to your heart reminding you of His perfect love for you.
安靜的時間確實能使你的生命變得不同，它促使你傾聽上帝與你的心靈對話，使你想起他賦予你的完美的愛。
Be honest with yourself by paying attention to your actions. Actions speak louder than words, and they always tell the truth.
坦誠對己，注重行動吧。事實勝于雄辯，行動才能證明事實。
What do your actions say about you? If you say you love your job, but your actions say otherwise, which do you think is more true — your words or your actions?
你的行動是如何說明你的呢？如果你說熱愛自己的工作，而你的行動正好相反，你認為哪個更有說服力呢——言語還是行動？
On the other hand, if you say you're not good at a certain job, but your actions say otherwise, that's also important.
另一方面，如果你說不擅長某項工作，但你的行動正好相反，這也很重要。
What do you do with this insight? You can use it to make more beneficial choices in your life. By being honest with yourself based on your previous actions, your actions moving forward will be based on truth instead of just what you tell yourself.
你怎么處理你這種能力？你可以由此在生活中做出更多的選擇，坦誠對己也建立在以前的行為上，你以后的行動將會以事實為基礎，而不只是你的言詞。
Despite what your subconscious may be telling you, you can have love with no limits. The key is to unconditionally love yourself first.
不管你的潛意識告訴你什么，你都能夠擁有無盡的愛，關鍵是首先你要無條件地愛自己。
