阅读是一生的功课，无论顺境逆境，我们总能在文字里找到共鸣。

以下是小编整理的给自己的建议/A PROPOSAL TO MYSELF的内容，读一下吧，也许恰好是你喜欢的那一篇。

I am writing this the day before I find out my fate —the day before I know the answer to what will happen in my life.

I am determined to see the world in every aspect that may be possible for me.

I am sure that I will become something, even if the envelope that carries my life inside it carries bad news.

I will not listen to those who insist that a university degree is the only way you will find a means of living these days.

I have experienced what I like to live, and I will tell myself that even if that envelope is a rejection, I will carry on and go on to see mountains, swim in the sea and count the stars.

I know I must continue to live my life the way I know how to.

The envelope that will reach my mail-box tomorrow will bring an answer that I am ready to bear with courage and self-respect.

I am independent by nature.

I accept who I am and will continue to live regardless of whether or not I am accepted into a college.

I will always be true to myself and to those around me.

I will remember my friends, acquaintances and idols, and I will wish them the best of luck in life.

The envelope that is to reach my house will not only be a letter, but rather a decision that I will make with my life.

I am confused, as most people of my age around this time are, but I will not look back.

I will only look toward tomorrow and greet each day with a smile wherever I may be.

【助读词汇】◇rejection n.

拒绝，抵制，抛弃，驳回【参考译文】在我知道自己命运的前一天——在我知道生活里将会发生什么的前一天，我写下此文。

我决心要尽可能从各个视角看这个世界。

我信心十足，将大有作为，即使包裹着我命运的信封里带来的是坏消息。

我不会听信那些坚持说这个世道要想找到一份糊口的工作必须有个大学文凭的人。

我按自己的喜好生活着，而且我会这样告诉自己，即使信封里是封拒绝信，我也会继续前进，去看大山，去海里游泳，去看星辰。

我知道我得按自己熟知的方式继续生活。

明天将投进我信箱的那封信会带来答案，而我已经准备好带着勇气和自尊去面对它。

我生性独立。

我接受真正的自己，不管有没有被大学录取，我都将继续生活。

我会永远忠于自己，对周围的人坦诚相待。

我会记住我的朋友、熟人和偶像，并祝愿他们好运。

将送到我家的那封信不仅是一封信，而且还是我对自己人生做的决定。

我困惑了，就像很多我的同龄人在这个阶段一样，但是我不会往后看，我只会直视明天，不论我将身在何处，我都会用笑容迎接每一天。

【人生启迪】认为一张纸就能改变自己命运的人是多么的被动啊！

人的命运仿佛大海，有潮起便有潮落，不管成败与否，你都还是你自己。

要像本文的作者那样，不管境遇如何糟糕，都要接受自己，看得起自己，你才有信心去面对人生中的低谷，熬过生命中的低潮。
