Love plays a pivotal role on out life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could go hayward and also become cruel and ferocious. In the early stage of our life， our parents are the ones who shower us with unconditional love and care， they teach us about what is right and wrong， good and bad. But we always tend to take this for granted. It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to others feelings. Kids make a person responsible and mature and help us to understand life better.
Happiness and Sorrow
Materialistic happiness is short-lived， but happiness achieved by bringing a smile on others face gives a certain level of fulfillment. Peace of mind is the main link to happiness. No mind is happy without peace. We realize the true worth of happiness when we are in sorrow. Sorrow is basically due to death of a loved one， failure and despair. But these things are temporary and pass away.
Failure and Success
Failure is the path to success. It helps us to touch the sky， teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way. Success brings in money， fame， pride and self-respect. Here it becomes very important to keep our head on out shoulder. The only way to show our gratitude to God for bestowing success on us is by being humble， modest， courteous and respectful to the less fortunate ones.
Hope and Despair
Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes us dream. Hope builds in patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour， because after every night there is a day. Nothing remains the same we have only one choice keep moving on in life and be hopeful.
Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday， for it has passed and is beyond our control. Tomorrow is unknown， for it could either be bright or dull. So the only alternative is work hard today， so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.
人生好似一个包裹，这个包裹里藏着快乐与悲伤，成功与失败，希望与绝望。人生也是一个学习的过程。那些经历给我们上了全新的课，让我们变得更好。随着每一天的过去，我们学会了处理各种各样的问题。
爱在生活之外扮演了一个关键的角色。爱使你想要得到些什么。没有爱，一个人将走向不归路，变得凶暴、残忍。在我们最初的人生道路上，我们的父母给予了我们无条件的关爱，他们教会我们判断正确与错误、好与坏。然而我们常常把这想当然了，只有等到我们结了婚并且有了孩子之后，一个人才会懂得并注意别人的感受。孩子让我们变得富有责任心、变得成熟稳重，并且更好地理解人生。
快乐与悲伤
物质上的快乐往往是短暂的，然而，当你给予他人一个微笑的时候，那种满足却是无与伦比的。心灵的平静往往是快乐的源泉。没有平和的心态就没有快乐的心情。在伤心的时候，我们往往能够体会到快乐的真谛。悲伤基本都来自于一个爱人的去世、失败还有绝望，但是这样的事情都是暂时的，总会过去的。
失败与成功
失败是成功之母。它让我们触及蓝天，它教会我们如何生存，它给予我们一条特殊的路。成功给予我们金钱、名誉、骄傲和自尊。这里，保持头脑清醒便显得尤为重要。唯一能让我们感激上帝给予的成功便是始终卑微、谦虚、礼貌并且尊重没我们幸运的人们。
希望与绝望
希望是人生动力之源。父母总是希望自己的孩子能够做得很好。希望使我们有梦想。希望使我们变得有耐心。人生教会我们即使是在最困难的时候都不要绝望，因为黑暗之后终将是黎明。没有什么事一成不变的，我们惟有充满希望地继续生活。
人生教会我们不要对过去的事感到后悔，因为过去的终究是过去了并且我们已无法控制。没人知道明天会是怎样，因为它可以是光明的同样也可以是无趣的。所以，唯一的选择便是在今天努力工作，这样才能让我们去享受更美好的明天。
Pamplona’s San Fermin Festival旁普罗纳的圣佛明节
Surely the most interesting part of Pamplona’s San Fermin Festival is its focus on danger and death. Why would so many people， over hundreds of years， take part in something everyone fears？
The American writer Ernest Hemmingway explores this very question in his 1926 novel The Sun Also Rises. The main characters， who begin to feel empty living in modern Paris， travel to Spain and join in the San Fermin Festival. There， they see death through Spanish eyes.
By joining in the events of this colorful festival， they begin to understand how the Spanish， in celebrating death， are actually celebrating life. Through the images of the black bull and the bullfighter’s blood-red cloth， they discover that the Spanish find meaning in life by worshipping heroic death. With people running for their lives， and bullfighters dancing with the bulls， life and death come together at the San Fermin Festival
当然，在旁普罗纳的圣佛明节中，最有意思的就是对危险和死亡的关注。为什么数百年来有那么多人要参与这个所有人都害怕的事呢？
美国作家海明威在他1926年写的小说《太阳照常升起》中，探讨了这个问题。小说的主人公住在繁华的巴黎，由于内心感到空虚，就到西班牙旅游，参加圣佛明节。在那里，他们领悟到西班牙人对死亡的看法。
由于参加这个多采多姿的庆典活动，他们开始了解，西班牙人在庆祝死亡的同时，其实是在庆祝生命。由黑色的公牛、斗牛士手中血红色的布，他们发现西班牙人透过崇拜悲壮的死亡，发掘生命的意义。随着人们没命地奔逃、斗牛士和公牛舞蹈，在圣佛明节，生命和死亡总是如影随形，密不可分。
