I have seen the sun break through
to illuminate a small field for a while,
and gone my way an forgotten it.
But that was the pearl of great price,
the one field that had treasure in it.
I realize now that I must give all that
I have to possess it.
Life is not hurryingon to a receding future, nor hankering after an imagined past.
It is the turning aside like
Moses to the miracle of the lit bush,
to a brightness that seemed as
transitory as your youth once,
but is the eternity that awaits you.
我看到那一瞬間，
太陽穿刺云層
照亮了一片大地。
而我在前行的途中遺失了它。
但那是高貴的珍珠是藏寶的大地。
我意識到必須傾盡所有去擁有它。
生命不是趕往一個不斷遠去的未來，
亦不是渴求一個想象中的過去。
它就如引導摩西走向那奇跡般燃燒的灌木叢，引導你走向那青春一般短暫的光明，而那就是一直等待你的永恒。
