There is a wholeness about the person who has come to terms with his limitations，who has been brave enough to let go of his unrealistic dreams and not feel like a failure for doing so．There is a wholeness about the man or woman who has learned that he or she is strong enough to go through a tragedy and survive ，who can lose someone and still feel like a complete person．
人生的完整性在于一個人知道如何面對他的缺陷，如何勇敢地摒棄那些不現實的幻想而又不以此為缺憾。人生的完整性還在于一個男人或女人懂得這樣一個道理：他（她）發現自己能勇敢面對人生悲劇而繼續生存，能夠在失去親人后依然表現出一個完整的人的風范。
Life is not a trap set for us by God so that he can condemn us for failing．Life is not a spelling bee，where no matter how many words you've gotten right， you're disqualified if you make one mistake．Life is more like a baseball season，where even the best team loses one－third of its games and even the worst team has its days of brilliance．Our goal is to win more games than we lose．
人生不是上帝為譴責我們的缺陷而給我們布下的陷阱。人生也不是一場拼字游戲比賽。不管你拼出多少單詞，一旦出現了一個錯誤，你便前功盡棄。人生更像是一個棒球賽季。即使最好的球隊比賽也會輸掉三分之一，而最差的球隊也有春風得意的日子。我們的目標就是多贏球，少輸球。
When we accept that imperfection is part of being human，and when we can continue rolling through life and appreciate it，we will have achieved a wholeness that others can only aspire to．That, I believe，is what God asks of us － not "Be perfect"，not "Don't even make a mistake", but "Be whole".
我們接受了不完整性是人類本性的一部分，我們不斷地進行人生滾動并能意識到其價值，我們就會完成完整人生的過程。而對于別人來講，這只能是一個夢想。我相信這就是上帝對我們的要求：不求“完美”，也不求“永不犯錯誤”，而是求得人生的“完整”。
If we are brave enough to love，strong enough to forgive，generous enough to rejoice in another's happiness，and wise enough to know there is enough love to go around for us all，then we can achieve a fulfillment that no other living creature will ever know．
如果我們勇敢得能夠去愛，堅強得能夠去寬容，大度得能夠去分享他人的幸福，明智得能夠理解身邊充滿愛，那么我們就能取得別的生物所不能取得的成就。
