1. Learning
學(xué)習(xí)

This is the reason we heard from school and college going kids. They all look forward to knowing, learning and finding out more about everything. Right from studies to games, the eagerness to do better and learn more makes their lives worth living.
這是我們從學(xué)校里和將要上大學(xué)的孩子們那里聽(tīng)到的原因。關(guān)于周?chē)囊磺?,他們期待著能了解更多、學(xué)習(xí)更多以及挖掘更多。從研究到游戲,做得更好和學(xué)得更多的渴望讓他們的生命值得活下去。

2. Creating
創(chuàng)造

When we spoke to a few office goers and professionals, this was the reason they gave. The ability to create things, be it a weekly status report or a new document or a painting or composing a new song seemed to make life worthwhile for many.
當(dāng)我們與辦公室白領(lǐng)和專業(yè)人士交談時(shí),這是他們給出的原因。創(chuàng)造新事物的能力,無(wú)論是一份周報(bào),或一篇新文檔,或一幅畫(huà),或一首新歌,都似乎讓生命有很多的價(jià)值。

3. New Opportunities
新的機(jī)遇

This was another reason that was put forth by people in professions, businesses and working cadre. They seemed to be looking forward to new opportunities in life. Both professionally and personally, these people looked forward to moving ahead and getting appreciation. They liked to grab the new opportunities life threw at them which made their lives worth living.

4. Exploring
探索

Some people just liked to say that they wanted to explore more and discover new horizons. Touring around the world, learning about the world history and visiting the most famous places did make life worth for many people. Exploring religious and spiritual boundaries also seemed to be another reason.
有些人就是喜歡說(shuō)他們想要探索得更多和發(fā)現(xiàn)新的視野。世界各地巡回演出、學(xué)習(xí)世界歷史、參觀最著名的圣地,對(duì)許多人來(lái)說(shuō)這是值得繼續(xù)的生活。探索宗教和精神層面的界限也似乎是另一個(gè)原因。

5. Growing Up
成長(zhǎng)

Well, some people like to simply see where life leads them to. Growing older every year, getting wiser and learning simple and profound lessons from life makes life worth living for many people.
有些人只想看看生活會(huì)牽引著他們?nèi)绾伟l(fā)展。每年都長(zhǎng)了一歲,更有智慧,學(xué)到簡(jiǎn)單而深刻的經(jīng)驗(yàn),這對(duì)許多人來(lái)說(shuō),這樣的生命值得活下去。

6. Celebrations
慶祝

Believe it or not, some people think life is worth living because they get to celebrate special occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries and festivals with their loved ones. Well, we can understand the joy one feels when loved ones get together and share special moments, can't we?
信不信由你,有些人覺(jué)得生活是有價(jià)值的,因?yàn)樗麄冇刑厥獾膱?chǎng)合可以慶祝,比如和親人一起過(guò)生日、紀(jì)念日和節(jié)日。我們能理解當(dāng)親人聚在一起分享美好時(shí)光時(shí)的那種喜悅之情,難道不是嗎?

7. Love
愛(ài)

Well, this reason is an evergreen one. Life is worth living for the loved ones around, be it a wife/husband, children or friends. Such relationships make life worth everything. Being able to love some one and being loved back certainly makes life worth living, doesn’t it?
這是一個(gè)永恒不變的原因。生命值得活下去,為了在身邊的親人們,不管是妻子/丈夫、孩子或是朋友。這種關(guān)系讓生活里一切都值得。能夠愛(ài)人和被愛(ài),生命絕對(duì)是值得活下去的,不是嗎?
