As I began to love myself  by Charlie Chaplin

As I began to love myself I found that anguish and emotional suffering are only warning signs that I was living against my own truth. Today, I know, this is AUTHENTICITY.

As I began to love myself I understood how much it can offend somebody. If I try to force my desires on this person, even though I knew the time was not right and the person was not ready for it, and even though this person was me.
Today I call it RESPECT.

As I began to love myself I stopped craving for a different life,and I could see that everything that surrounded me was inviting me to grow.
Today I call it MATURITY.

As I began to love myself I understood that at any circumstance, I am in the right place at the right time, and everything happens at the exactly right moment. So I could be calm.
Today I call it SELF-CONFIDENCE.

As I began to love myself I quit steeling my own time, and I stopped designing huge projects for the future.
Today, I only do what brings me joy and happiness, things I love to do and that make my heart cheer, and I do them in my own way and in my own rhythm.
Today I call it SIMPLICITY.

As I began to love myself I freed myself of anything that is no good for
my health – food, people, things, situations, and everything that drew
me down and away from myself. At first I called this attitude
a healthy egoism. Today I know it is LOVE OF ONESELF.

As I began to love myself I quit trying to always be right, and ever since
I was wrong less of the time. Today I discovered that is MODESTY.

As I began to love myself I refused to go on living in the past and worrying
about the future. Now, I only live for the moment, where EVERYTHING
is happening.  Today I live each day, day by day, and I call it FULFILLMENT.

As I began to love myself I recognized that my mind can disturb me
and it can make me sick. But As I connected it to my heart, my
mind became a valuable ally. Today I call this connection WISDOM OF THE HEART.

We no longer need to fear arguments, confrontations or any kind of problems with ourselves or others.
Even stars collide, and out of their crashing new worlds are born.
Today I know THAT IS LIFE.

 

It is believed to have been written by *Charlie Chaplin on his 70th birthday, however... ...

大彻大悟啊。读得怎么能如此清晰,轻重缓急发音,一听就用心练过啊

I began to love myself today. As I wanted to compose my song and  I realized I haven't touched the piano for a long time. 

I just  played the chords again and I almost forgot everything except the white and black keys and the piano book. I felt so good. 

Then I am sitting in front of the PC, and listening to your audio---- a wonderful reading,  and it makes me love myself.:)

一是因为诗,二是试试新的mic

我一般是过一遍看看有没有生字,然后读的时候开始养成习惯,脑子里先形成意群,不见得记住全句,断好句子,再读,眼-脑-口,不要看到什么立刻就读,这样我发现很多时候第一次就能全对读下来,但要想每个字都读得没毛病确实得重复几遍,说中国话也办不到啊。

今天一荷朗读的当我开始爱自己,很有感触,去搜原版,发现原版要长很多。读了,太长了,翻译不了。可以用一句话总结这首诗:一个人只有懂得爱自己了,才开始懂得体谅别人,开始变得成熟,变得会客观看待一切

据说这首诗是查理.卓别林在70岁生日时写下的。

摸索了一阵,最低配置什么样的mic可以用电脑去录音,毕竟我的兴趣还没到建个studio程度。你听到了我原来的3.5mm的模拟信号 mic接到电脑录噪音有多大了,那个只能接手机K歌用, 或者用外接平衡式声卡,笔记本的声卡根本不行。

这次用的usb mic, mic本身的放大电路可以处理一大部分环境噪音。usb 到电脑已经是数字信号了。

我的工作间在地下室,有锅炉,楼上还有家人走来走去,这对mic影响都不是特别大,最大的是刚才我的硬盘咕噜咕噜,我用audacity录音,后期除噪,还是能听到呼呼的环境噪音,但可以接受了,这个mic人声是非常清晰而且保真度很高,

哈哈耳朵惯坏了,再用那个K歌不知道能否忍受了。

HELPFUL ARTICLE, PERFECT READING!

当你能意识到按照意群朗读就很厉害了,难怪听你读的这么舒服,果然是按照意群,看不见的间歇,

却停顿得恰到好处(我知道的是that的从句中的that总是跟从句走),学习啦!谢谢啦!

我这周末朗读,会专门注意这一点。

这个USB mic确实好多了,很清晰,声音也很好听!

一荷眼光真好,朗诵也好。

这首诗是把自己当局外人看自己,就会更爱自己一些,也会爱别人,所谓己所不欲,勿施于人

that跟主句从句我觉得都没毛病,I found that... ...,意群之内说多快都可以,之间有停顿就可以,

that跟主句从句我觉得都没毛病,I found that... ...,意群之内说多快都可以,之间有停顿就可以,这样读的人有时间反应下面要读什么,听的人有时间反应刚才说的是什么。意群之内用一般人都适应的速度,反而更容易懂,太慢就有点拆开反而难懂

移花接木
也许我说的有毛病,这个I found that...是个宾语从句,分开没毛病,但是定语从句似乎不对

下一个that I was living..... 定语从句, that 还必须跟着后面从句, 否则成了 .....warning signs that,  I was living against my own truth... ... 感觉不对劲儿。

我也没有理论根据,就根据我的语感来的啊

全大写,忽然觉得这些字都不认识了一样

语感好就行了:)定语从句肯定是跟后面了。

that, 作连词非常短促,且和后面从句一起读。
移花接木
又错了,that I was living...好像不是定语从句,是宾语补语从句
移花接木
就叫所谓的自恋吧?

是定语从句吧,是形容“warning signs”这个名词。
移花接木
定语是修饰,补语是补充说明,我比较糊涂,我觉得定语从句一般连词本身就是从句主语,这个that不是

也许我彻底说反了

奥,是同位语从句, that这里什么成分都不做,就是个连词。

你也读读英文版吧,跟花董的风:)
移花接木
同位语是否自己也会做宾语?这个从句好像只围绕着signs这个字,与前面整个句子无关
一荷
我 需要慢慢进入英语世界, 我读大学时已经部分由外籍老师教, 就是太喜欢中文交流
b
beautifulwind
这里的同位语不是宾语,这个that及后面是同位语从句,只修饰signs这个词

“同位语从句,就是对某些名词做进一步的解释的句子。”

 “简单记忆:定语从句的引导词 that 或 which在句子中用作主语或宾语,而同位语从句的引导词that只起连接主句和从句之作用,不用作任何成分”

现在在国外,天天和老外打交道啊,天天都是英语世界啊,美坛自由,是双语世界:)

那看来我说的宾语补语从句就是这个功能。我一直就这么错着叫,幸亏不用参加英语考试,心里明白却写错了
