编者寄语：
拥有梦想的人是值得尊敬的，也让人羡慕的。当大多数人碌碌而为的时候，请坚持下去，不要害怕与众不同，也别停下梦想的脚步！你的人生应该由你自己亲自去创造！
经典回放——《当幸福来敲门》
In the movie The Pursuit of Happiness， Chris Ghana was a clever salesman. He worked hard， but could not give his family a better life. His wife Linda left him， leaving him his 5-year-old son Christopher. Chris became a single father and had only 21 dollars when he and his son were kicked off the apartment. Chris finally got a chance at an investment company. However， there’s no salary during the internship period （n. 实习期） and 90 percent of the people failed to get the job. But Chris understood that this is his last chance， is the only way to a happy life. No income， nowhere to go. What Chris only had was his son’s trust and love. They were homeless at night， slept in subway stations， public bathrooms， and where all they could for the nights. Life was extremely hard. But for his son’s future and his own dreams， Chris tried his best. Finally， Chris succeeded.
在电影《当幸福来敲门》中，克里斯·加纳是一个聪明的推销员。他勤奋努力，却总没办法让家里过上好日子。妻子琳达离开了他，只留下他和5岁的儿子克里斯托夫相依为命。克里斯成为了单亲爸爸。当他和儿子被撵出公寓的时候，他身上只剩21美元。克里斯好不容易得到了在一家投资公司的工作机会。然而实习期间没有薪水， 并且有百分之九十的人最终没能成功得到这份工作。但克里斯明白，这是他最后的机会，是通往幸福生活的唯一路途。没有收入、无处容身，克里斯唯一拥有的，就是儿子的信任和爱。他们夜晚无家可归，就睡在地铁站、公共浴室，及一切可以暂时栖身的空地。生活无比艰难。但为了儿子的未来以及自己的梦想，克里斯竭尽了全力。最终，克里斯成功了。
There is an old saying， “Tomorrow is often the busiest day of the week”. How many times have we put off our dreams until tomorrow？ Our dreams should not， and cannot wait. We have to go for them now！
有句古老的说法：明天常常是一周中最忙碌的一天。有多少次我们曾把梦想推迟到了明天？梦想不应等待，也经不起等待。我们必须马上行动。
Tomorrow is not promised
Nobody likes to talk about death， but the reality is that everybody is going to die at one point. None of us know the day， or the hour. Therefore， today is all we have. Don’t go to your grave （n. 坟墓） with dreams that have not come true yet. Make the decision to go after every dream， big or small right now.
明天不一定到来
没人愿意谈论死亡，但现实是——死亡必将到来。哪一天或哪一刻没人能说得清。所以，我们真正拥有的是今天。不要因未实现梦想而抱憾而终。作出决定，追逐每个梦想，无论这些梦想是伟大或是平凡，从现在就开始。
The world needs you
I know this may be hard to believe， but the world needs you！ Yes， YOU！ You were born into the world with a unique （adj. 独一无二的） gift. Nobody on this earth can replace you. Sure， other people may be able to sing. But they’ll never be able to sing exactly like you. Sure other people can write， but they’ll never be able to write from the same perspective （n. 角度） in which you write. Don’t hide your gift. 世界需要你
我知道，可能你不相信，但是世界的确需要你！是的，就是你！你是这个世界上独一无二的，无可替代。当然，有的人可能歌唱得好，但是，他们的风格却总是有别于你的。有的人擅长写作，但是他们却永远不能站在你的视角来描述事物。不要埋没你的天赋。
Take the first step
You can dream about writing the great American play all you want， but it’s never going to happen unless you actually put pen to paper. You can dream about finding a cure for cancer， but it will never happen unless you actually go to school to learn and research. Unless you take the first step， your dreams will never come true. In other words， dreams don’t work unless you do. They require you to get your head out of the clouds， and actually do the work to make them happen. Get to it！
写出一部伟大的美剧是你的最大梦想，但是，如果不拿起笔，这部伟大的美剧将永远不会问世。你梦想找到治愈癌症的良方，但是，你必须去学习和研究，否则你将无法找到。如果跨不出第一步，梦想将终归是梦想。换句话说，除非付诸实践，否则梦想终归是梦想。实现梦想要求你别再做白日梦，而是朝着梦想努力。所以，马上行动吧！
To be brave
One of the biggest dream killers is fear. There are so many people who could have achieved great things if only they weren’t afraid. Just think about all the things you’ve wanted to do but you doubt you weren’t good enough to do. “Fear is not real. It is a product of thoughts you create. Do not misunderstand me. Danger is very real. But fear is a choice.” Choose not to let fear stop you from achieving your dreams.
要勇敢
恐惧是梦想最可怕的杀手。要是能够克服恐惧，很多人能够成就大事。想想那些你一直想做，但却被你怀疑自己不够好而做不了的事情。“恐惧并不真实存在，仅是思想的产物。别误会。危险真实存在，但是恐惧是一种选择。”选择不要让恐惧成为你实现梦想的障碍吧。
Chances are waiting for you
There are so many chances and people waiting. How do you get to them？ Simple. Follow your dream. Doors that you couldn’t imagine open up when you go after what you want. You’ll never see those doors if you sit around waiting on a dream to happen， instead of actually working to make it happen.
机会时刻都在
有太多大好的机会，有太多人对你拭目以待。如何才能与它们亲密接触？简单得很，随梦而行。追逐梦想时，那些你无法想像的大门为你敞开。如果坐等梦想实现，而不是通过努力去实现梦想，你将永远看不到那些门。
Imagine how much happier you’ll be if you’re living the life you always dreamed about. The only thing that is stopping you is you. Take control of your own happiness. Go after them today！You’ll be much happier if you go for it.
想像一下，如果你过着梦想的生活，你会多么快乐。阻止你追逐梦想的只有你自己。把握自己的幸福，从今天开始，就朝着梦想进发吧！追逐梦想让你更快乐。

人生重要的事情就是确定一个伟大的目标，并决心实现它。——德国诗人、戏剧家 约翰·奥尔夫冈·冯·歌德
拥有梦想的人是值得尊敬的，也让人羡慕的。当大多数人碌碌而为的时候，请坚持下去，不要害怕与众不同，也别停下梦想的脚步！你的人生应该由你自己亲自去创造！
