God said:
天父說：

You are free on Earth. It may not seem so to you. You may feel bogged down in so many matters that you are overwhelmed.
你在地球上是自由的，儘管看起來似乎不是。鋪天蓋地的事情，讓你深陷其中。

Dear Ones, you are free even to be overwhelmed. It is not a stretch to say that out of a peck of opportunities, you may well have chosen one named Overwhelmed.
親愛的一們，即使是鋪天蓋地，你也是自由的。然而大把的機會中，不誇張的說，你卻選擇"鋪天蓋地"的那一個。

There are so many choices in life before you. All of them are for you to choose from.
生活中的選擇千千種，都是供你選擇的。

You even have the choice to run away from what you would love to choose. You may put your hand out, and then pull your hand back. You do not give yourself credit for the ability to achieve your desires, and so you back away, or, perhaps, it can be said that you back away from fulfilling a desire of yours out of timidity or, perhaps, from some kind of fear of success or failure. In any case, it can be that you accept less than your full quotient.
即使面對你的最愛，你都可以選擇跑路。你可以先伸出手，再收回來。你不相信自己有達成願望的能力，所以退縮了，或著可能是出於膽怯，或對成功或失敗的恐懼，你放棄了實現自己的願望。總而言之，你接受的可能低於你應得的。

On one level, it doesn"t matter. On another level, it matters very much. Well, who in life knows for a fact what his best choices are? You can only guess.
從一個層面說，這沒關係。而從另一個層面說，這關係重大。在生活中，有誰知道什麼才是他的最佳選擇？你只能猜。

Perhaps you can build yourself up to say Yes more often to what you desire than you say No to what you desire. If Life has picked a flower for you, it may behoove you to accept the flower and not throw it away.
對自己的願望更多的去說"Yes"，而不是"No"，你可以逐漸培養這種習慣。生活如果為你送上一枝花，就應該收下，而不是丟掉。

Regardless, Life is your choice, and you choose one way or another.
無論如何，生活就是個選擇題，不是這個就是那個。

Caution tells you that you can"t accept everything that comes your way. On the other hand, you want your heart to flow where it wants to flow.
你常被提醒：不能來到面前的一切都接受。而另一方面，你又想讓自己的心去它想去的地方。

Challenges are acceptable. You don"t have to make sure bets. You can work at what you want. Everything doesn"t have to be a sure thing.
挑戰是可以接受的。不用去確保自己的賭注，只要專注在你要的上就好了。不是所有事都必須要確保。

You don"t have to succeed in everything. Success can be in giving yourself your best shot.
你也不是所有事上都要成功。成功可能就在你的全力以赴中。

Perhaps you can stick with something just as easily as you can drop it. You don"t have to stick with it any more than you have to drop it. Free choice.
也許在某些事上你可以堅持，輕鬆的和放棄它一樣。一味的堅持沒有必要，正像你不一定要放棄一樣。選擇總是自由的。

Make your choices yours rather than the advice of the seeming world. There are all kinds of gains. There are many kinds of gains. Which pair of glasses do you want to look through?
做出自己的選擇，而不是跟從他人的建議。收穫會林林總總，各種各樣。就看你戴著什麼眼鏡去看了？

Keep your options open. Of course, you can choose to stay on the same track. Of course, you can choose new horizons as well. You are a chooser of choices.
向所有的可能性敞開。你當然可以選擇待在原來的軌道上，也可以選擇前往新的地平線。你是選擇的決定者。

I am speaking here of daring to follow your heart. Herein lies the reward. The thing is, following your heart or following your logic is not so easy for you to know which is which. Life in the world has many variables.
我說的是要敢於"依心而行"。這中間蘊藏著豐厚的獎賞。問題是，跟隨你的心和跟隨你的邏輯，要分清彼此並不容易。世間的生活變化萬千。

Sometimes you are not sure what is heart and what is ego, and sometimes you spend your whole Life in debating a decision. And, sometimes, you simply have to choose.
有時你會不確定哪個是發乎於心，哪個是出自於小我，有時的一個決定會用盡你一生的時間去思考。而有時，選擇是不得不做的。

And sometimes you have to let go of choices made.
還有時，曾經做過的選擇卻又要不得不放下。

Let"s consider that there are no best choices or worst choices. There are only choices. Have no regrets. Regrets are a delaying action. With regrets, the past holds you in its thrall.
我們可以這樣看，選擇沒有最好，也沒有最壞。有的只是選擇，和無悔。後悔是遲來的行為。因為後悔，過去才會抓住你奴役你。

Look, regrets are your choice as well. Don"t waste your Life on regrets. You can"t keep reading the same pages in a book over and over. Turn the pages, and move on.
注意，後悔也是一種選擇。不要把你的生命浪費在後悔上。同一頁的書不能翻來覆去的看。繼續翻頁吧。

When you are open, beloveds, you are open to a kind of magic bag of surprises. Anything can happen. Anything can happen in more than one way. Open your heart and mind to what you would love to have happen during your Life on Earth. What are the possibilities you think of? What are the possibilities you haven"t yet thought of?
當你敞開時，親愛的，你是在向一個裝滿驚喜的魔術袋敞開。任何事都有可能發生，還不止會以一種方式。對你在地球上有生之年渴望發生的一切敞開心胸，拓寬思路吧。有什麼可能性是你想到的，那還有沒想到的呢？

Anticipate a great life on Earth. Open the gates to good fortune. Wake up, you are not here for misfortune.
去預見地球上的美好生活吧。為幸運之神敞開大門。醒醒，你到這兒不是來倒霉的。

Toss blessings up in the air, and catch them.
將美好的祝福投擲空中，然後抓住它們！
