What life is about

As we all know, the most important thing in life is our attitude towards it, tons of men have tried different ways of treating life, and some succeeded, some failed, and here are some of the tips they left us.

Life isn’t about keeping score. Life isn’t about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin. In fact it’s not about if you have lots of friends or if you are alone, and it’s not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn’t about that.

But life is about whom you love and who you hurt. It’s about how you feel about yourself. It’s about trust, happiness and compassion. It’s about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love. Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance and building confidence. It’s about what you say and what you mean. It’s about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. And we should always remember to be ourselves. Other might have things that we desire but being what we really are is the only trail leading to the true colors of life. Most of all, it’s about choosing to use your life to touch someone else’s in a way that could have never been achieved otherwise.

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers; we buy more but enjoy them less. We’ve learnt how to make a living but not a life, we’ve added years to life, but not life to years. And it is time for us to choose whether to make a difference in our life.

And these choices are what life is about.

生活的真谛

众所周知，关于生活最重要的我们对待生活的态度，不同的人以不同的方式对待生活，一些人成功了，一些人失败了。这里有一些关于生活的帖士给我们大家。

生活不是为了保持高分，生活也不仅仅是你的鞋子、你的发型和你的肤色。实际上，生活也不只是你拥有多少朋友，或者你是否孤独；生活也不仅仅意味着你被别人接受与否。生活并不仅仅是这些。

但是，生活是关于你所爱的和你所伤害的那些人。生活就是你对自己的所有感觉。它是关于信任、幸福和包容。它是你对朋友的支持和如何用爱来融化内心的憎恨。生活就是远离嫉妒、克服无知和建立信心。生活是关于你的言行和思想。

生活就是关注人的自身，而不是关注别人的拥有。而且我们必须记住保持我们的本色。虽然，生活的另一面令我们向往，但保持我们的本色是通往生活真谛的必由之路。总之，生活就是用你整个的生命去触摸其他人从未企及的选择。 在生活的长河中也常常令我们困惑和矛盾，我们拥有越来越高大的建筑，但我们也越来越缺乏耐心；我们购买的物质越来越多，但我们从中得到的快乐越来越少。我们学习如何活着但那却不是生活；人类的寿命越来越长，但有意义的生活并因此而延长。因此，现在正是我们选择使我们的人生变得不同凡响的时候了。

这些选择就是生活的真谛。

 

第二篇：初中英语演讲稿范文

Good morning teachers and fellow students. Today we would like to introduce a few favorite books to you.

My favorite book is <Heart> (Italian: Cuore). This is a diary written by an Italian boy Enrico. The diary is about his life and study. It included various touching stories that happened around Enrico, the mottos taught by his parents, as well as the wonderful ten "monthly" stories told by his teacher during the class. Every word in the chapter describes the word "love". From patriotism to friendship, and to the love between parents and child -- really touching.

This novel taught me how to love, and how to learn from love. I really like this book very much. How about you? What is your favorite book?

My favorite book is <Little princess>. Have you read it before?

Oh, I haven’t read this book before. What is it about?

Well, it is a story of a rich girl who maintained her noble character after the bankruptcy of her father. The story is happy ending.

Can you tell us why you love this book so much?

Sure. It is because the story taught us to be brave and to face the challenges and difficulties with courage. I am deeply impressed by the strength and perseverance of the little princess in the story. I have decided to learn from her from now on.

Oh I see, the story sounds very good. I cannot wait to read this book as well. 初中英语演讲稿中文：

大家好，今天我们要向大家介绍几本我们喜欢的书。

我最喜欢的书是《爱的教育》，这本书介绍了意大利孩子艾利克的生活和学习。写发生在安利柯身边各式各样感人的小故事、父母在他日记本上写的劝诫他的文章，以及十则老师在课堂上宣读的精彩的“每月故事”。每章每节，都把“爱”表现得淋漓尽致，从对国家的爱，对民族的爱到对朋友的，父母的爱。都很令人感动。

这本书让我懂得了怎样去爱，让我们在爱中受到教育。所以，我很喜欢这本书
