Youth is not a period of life; It is a state of mind; This is not rosy cheeks, red lips and soft knees; This is a will, an imaginary quality, and an emotional vitality; This is the freshness of the deep spring of life.
Youth means a kind of courage to overcome timidity, a kind of adventurous desire to overcome ease. This is more common in a 60-year-old man than in a 20-year-old boy. No one grows old just because of age. We grow old by giving up our ideals.
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns youth to ashes.
Whether you are 60 years old or 16 years old, everyone has the temptation of miracles, the insatiable desire for the future and the fun of life games. In your heart and mine, there is a radio station; As long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, courage and strength from men and God, you will always be young.
When your aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with the ice of cynicism and pessimism, even if you are only 20 years old, you are old; But as long as you put up your antennas and catch waves of optimism, there is hope that you will remain young at the age of 80.
Translation:
youth
Youth is not a period of time, but a state of mind; Youth is not a soft knee with rosy cheeks and red lips, but a deep will, a grand imagination and passionate feelings. Youth is the deep spring of life.
Youth pervades Changhong, courage overcomes timidity, and enterprising overcomes Gou 'an. This spirit is found in men in their twenties, especially in their sixties. With the growth of age, we are not getting old, but giving up our ideals will make us old.
Years are long, and decline only reaches the skin; Giving up enthusiasm will bring the soul back to decadence. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns youth to ashes.
No matter how old you are, whether you are 20 or 28, there is always the joy of life, the temptation of miracles and the innocence of children. In the center of everyone's heart there is an antenna, so long as you receive messages of beauty, hope, joy, courage and strength from the sky, you will always be young.
When the aerials are down, your spirit is covered with ice and snow, and you are covered with cynicism and self-denial. Even at 20, you are old. However, as long as you set up an antenna to capture optimistic signals, you may die young at the age of 80.
