Never stop caring about the little things in life,
Never stop dreaming or give in to strife.

Never stop building bridges that lead to promising tomorrows,
Never stop trying or give in to sorrows.

Never stop smiling and looking forward to each new day,
But most of all my friend…
Never stop shining in your own special way.

Never forget that all storms can clear.
The grayest sky can turn pure blue.
Remember, brighter tomorrows are near.

Don’t write your name on sand, waves will wash it away.
Don’t write your name in sky, wind may blow it away.<br/>Write your name in hearts of people you come in touch with.
That’s where it will stay.

Your first step is all that it takes to reach success.
It shows your faith in your dreams.
It shows you belief in yourself.
It shows you have courage to move ahead.

Nothing is permanent on sands of time.
Nothing, but the memories in heart will remain.
And the images in mind shall forever live.
Nothing will reappear, Nothing will repeat.<br/>Never forget, But dare to dream.
Life will change and it will be better.
Possibly it may be better than before.

Здравствуйте)
помогите пожалуйста....
кто-нибудь знает,как переводится driving slow ?я думала,что,может,это устойчивое выражение,но что-то не похоже...
в контексте выглядит так : "driving slow on sunday morning and I never want to leave"
литературный(не знаю,правда,насколько он такой) перевод выглядит так: Я не спеша отдаляюсь от тебя в воскресное утро,
Но я бы не хотел покидать тебя никогда.
действительно ли это корректный перевод.
спасибо всем большое за любую помощь)

Realize that true happiness lies within you. Waste no time and effort searching for peace and contentment and joy in the world outside. Remember that there is no happiness in having or in getting, buy only in giving. Reach out. Share. Smile. Hug.Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others, without getting a few drops on yourself.

А very tired traveler came to the banks of a river.

There was no bridge by which he could cross. It was winter, and the surface of the river was covered with ice. It was getting dark, and he wanted to reach the other side while there was enough light to see. He debated about whether or not the ice would bear his weight.

Finally, after much hesitation and fear, he got down on his knees and began very cautiously to creep across the surface of the ice. He hoped that by disturbing the weight of his body, the ice would be less apt to break under the load.

After he made his slow and painful journey about halfway across the river, he suddenly heard the sound of singing behind him. Out of the dusk, there came a 4-horse load of coal driven by a man singing merrily as he went to his carefree way. Here was the traveler, fearfully inching his way on his hands and knees. And there, as if whisked along by the winter’s wind, went the driver, his horses, his sled, and the heavy load of coal over the same river!

The story illustrates how many of us go through life.

Some stand on the bank of decisions unable to make up their minds about the course to take. Others stand on the banks trying to muster enough courage to cross over to the other side of the task or problem encountered.

On the other hand, some individuals crawl and creep through life for fear of thin ice.

Their faith is not strong enough to hold them up. Still there are those who whisked along whistling as they go. Their faith is UNSHAKABLE.

When we face the river of difficulties, we do not have to fear, nor do we creep through life.
