異性友情

Heterosexual Friendship

這世間的每個人，好像茫茫宇宙中一顆孤獨的流星，沿著自己的軌道運行著，尋找屬于自己的歸宿。

Everybody in this world, just like a lonely shooting star in the boundless universe, moves along his own track in search for his final setting place.

真摯友情就像兩顆流星千年難遇的一次偶然交匯所綻放的奇特光芒。獲得這份友情是人生的幸運，但這種幸運可遇不可求。有些人終其一生也沒有找到能互吐心曲的知音，那恐怕是人生最大的遺憾。

Sincere friendship is like brilliant light emitted by two shooting stars when they meet by chance. It is so happy for one to enjoy such friendship, yet luck plays an important part in this process. Undoubtedly, it is a great pity for one if he cannot seek a bosom friend to confide his inner feelings and thoughts in his life.

盡管很多人不相信異性之間存在純潔的友情，但我依然相信并渴望這樣純潔的友情。異性之間能夠存在真摯友情，異性之間的愛情固然很美好，但異性之間的友情給人更多溫馨、純潔和寬容的感覺。

Though many people do not think there exists pure heterosexual friendship, I still believe there must be and long for such pure friendship. True heterosexual love is undoubtedly beautiful and attractive, but pure heterosexual friendship will bring people more warmth, purity and tolerance.

愛情像陽光，而友情像月光。一個人如果能在生命中擁有一個感情非常要好而無話不說的異性朋友（愛人除外），那么他或她的生命會變得既寬容大度又溫柔細膩，擁有更寬廣博愛的心靈，能夠閃現(xiàn)更多人性的光輝。

Love is like sunlight, whereas friendship is like moonlight. If a man is lucky enough to have a heterosexual friend (not lover) and talk with her without any reservation in his life, it will make his life brighter and happier, and he will have a broader soul with more brilliance of humanity.
