2024-06-11 National Making Life Beautiful Day
【When I did not have you (Quando eu não te tinha)】 Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935) When I did not have you I loved Nature like a recluse as calm as Christ… Now I love nature Like a monk as calm as the Virgin Mary, Religiously, in my own way, as before, But in a different way by approaching life more.
I see better the rivers when I go with you In the fields to the edge of the rivers; Sitting by your side noticing the clouds I fix on them better, You do not take Nature away from me … You changed Nature … You brought me Nature to the foot of myself.
Because you exist I see you better, but the same, Because you love me, I love you in the same way, but more, Because you made me hold you and love you, My eyes remained focused lingering more Over everything.
I don't regret what I once was Because I still am. I only regret not having loved you before. Put your hand in mine, Let's be quiet, surrounded by life. —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《擁有你以前》】 (葡萄牙)冒險者·佩索阿“法人”(1888生—1935卒) 擁有你以前， 我熱愛自然，就像安靜的修道士熱愛基督…… 現在我熱愛自然 就像安靜的修道士熱愛聖母。 我的虔誠一如既往， 但顯得更誠摯更親密。
當我和你一起穿過田野來到河畔 我看到的河流更美麗; 坐在你身邊看雲，我看得更清楚—— 你不曾把自然從我這裡帶走…… 你不曾改變自然對我的意義…… 你使自然離我更近了。
因為你的存在，我能更好地看見你，但你是同一個人， 因為你愛我，我同樣愛你，但我愛得更多， 因為你選擇了我，讓我擁有你而愛你， 我的眼睛在凝視萬物時停留得更久。
我不為以前的我而後悔， 因為我還是同一個人。 我只遺憾以前不曾愛你。 把你的手放在我手裡， 讓我們保持安靜，被生活環繞。
【注】離開西班牙的凶狗群島(Canaries)之後，我們連夜直奔同樣位於非洲板塊上葡萄牙大西洋地區的森林島，因其氣候溫和，山巒青翠，再加上熔岩地貌調以黑色沙灘，被譽為歐洲的夏威夷。 頗具地域特色地，渡槽(Levada)是16世紀森林島靠囚犯或奴隸建造的灌溉渠道，可將西北部潮濕地帶的水源輸送到南部乾旱區域的農業區。 另外，森林島尤以本地出產的葡萄酒、動植物聞名於世，其史前月桂樹林於1999年更被聯合國教科文組織列入《世界遺產名錄》。 Today in History(歷史上的今天):
