True Love

真 愛

An ancient Hebrew text says: "love is as strong as death."

一篇古代希伯來文說到：“愛和死一樣強烈”

It seems that not everyone experiences this kind of strong love.

好像不是每個人都經(jīng)歷了這種強烈的愛。

The increasing poverty, crime and war tell us that the world is in desperate need of true love.

日益增加的貧窮，犯罪和戰(zhàn)爭告訴我們這個世界極度需要真愛。

But, what is true love?

但是，真愛是什么？

Love is something we all need, but how do we know when we've experienced it?

愛是我們都需要的東西，但是我們怎么知道什么時候經(jīng)歷了愛？

True love is best seen as devotion and action, not an emotion.

真愛最好被看成是奉獻和行動,而不是情感.

Love is not exclusively based on how we feel.

愛不完全是基于我們的感覺.

Certainly our emotions are involved, but they can not be our only criteria for love.

當(dāng)然我們的情感也涉及到了,但是情感不能成為我們對愛的唯一標(biāo)準.

True love is when you care enough about another person that you would lay down your life for them.

真愛是當(dāng)你們足夠關(guān)心在乎另一個人,你們愿意為他們放棄自己的生命.

When this happens, then love truly is "as strong as death."

當(dāng)這種事發(fā)生了,那么愛的確是"和死亡同樣強烈"

How many of you have a father or mother, husband or wife, son or daughter or friend who would sacrifice his or her own life for yours?

你們當(dāng)中有多少人的父親母親,丈夫妻子,兒子女兒或朋友愿意為你而犧牲他(她)自己的生命?

Those of you who truly love your spouse and children would unselfishly lay your life on the line to save them from death.

你愿意無私地放棄自己的生命來拯救你真正愛著的配偶和孩子免于死亡.

Many people, in emergency rooms with their loved ones have prayed,

許多人在急救室為他們所愛的人祈禱,

"Please God, take me instead of them".

"上帝, 請讓我來代替他們".

Find true love and be a true lover as well.

找到真愛并成為一個真正的愛人.

May you find the love which is not only stronger than death, but which leads to a truly fulfilling life.
