你很快就會懂得，握住一只手與鎖住一顆心，之間有著精妙的差異；你懂得愛并非依賴，有陪伴并非就安全。

你會懂得親吻并非契約，禮物也非承諾；失戀的痛苦你也開始能夠承受。

昂起你的頭，眼睛向前看，展現(xiàn)你女人的風姿綽約，而非孩子般的憂郁無助。

你該清楚，應該在今天鋪設自己所有的路。因為明天充滿了太多的變數(shù)，很難規(guī)劃，且未來總會出其不意地出現(xiàn)在我們面前。

你很快就會懂得，若擁有太多的陽光，也會使人灼傷；因此要培植自己的花園，美化自己的心靈，而不要靜待別人把鮮花送至你手。

你會懂得自己確實很有耐力……自己的確很堅強，且擁有自身的價值。你會逐漸懂得更多，每次的分手都會令你有所感悟。

After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul and you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning and company doesn’t mean security.

And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts and presents aren’t promises and you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and eyes ahead with the grace of a woman not the grief of a child.

And you learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans and futures have a way of falling down in mid flight.

After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much so you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.

And you learn that you really can endure that you really are strong and you really do have worth and you learn and learn with every good bye you learn.
