窗外的小雨淅淅沥沥，下个不停。今年的德州天气凉爽，雨季比往年漫长，五月中旬春意阑珊而夏天似乎迟迟未来。时间真快呀，转眼又快到女儿十八岁的生日。突然耳边便响起那只美丽的英文歌谣“I hope you dance 愿你跳生命之舞"，又听了几遍，非常合乎我此刻的对女儿的祝福和心意。
歌曲传达一种让我们”仰望星空，热爱生命“的心态，那就是面对天地我们永远的渺小软弱需要谦卑敬畏的心，面对生命我们应不畏艰辛用于求知探索。祝愿这首寓意深刻充满爱，温馨和激励的曲子伴随女儿一生的成长！
愿你跳生命之舞
愿你永不失去那颗求索的心
永远保存那一份慕义的饥渴
不让一丝气息白白掠过
爱，它不会让你空手无获
愿你站在大海边看到渺小的自己
当机遇的大门关闭，愿另一扇为你开启
答应我你要对信心坚定不移
是选择旁观静坐，还是去跳舞？
我愿你去跳舞，去跳生命之舞
愿你永不畏惧远方的险峰
不为山路崎岖艰难而选择坦途
人生在于敢冒那值得一搏的风险
爱，它或许是个值得一犯的错误
不要让那无心的伤害变成苦涩
莫要轻言放弃，再给自己一个机会
相信那来自上天的祝福
是选择旁观静坐，还是去跳舞？
我愿你去跳舞，去跳生命之舞
时间的车轮滚滚，永不止息
莫等闲，我们只有前行
谁又想多年后，慕回首
疑惑那流逝的时光，岁月蹉跎
是选择旁观静坐，还是去跳舞？
我愿你去跳舞，去跳生命之舞
"I Hope You Dance"
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,
May you never take one single breath for granted,
GOD forbid love ever leave you empty handed,
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Livin' might mean takin' chances but they're worth takin',
Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin',
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter,
When you come close to sellin' out reconsider,
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along,
Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder where those years have gone.)
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
Dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance..
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along
Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder where those years have gone)
