For many of us, one Christmas stands out from all the others, the one when the meaning of the day shone clearest. My own "truest" Christmas began on a rainy spring day in the bleakest year of my life. 对我们许多人来说,总有某一个圣诞节因为我们充分感受到这一天的意义而显得格外难忘

  I stood in the cold little kitchen, misery overwhelmed me. For the first time in my life, I doubted the existence and his mercy, and the coldness in my heart was colder than ice.
  我站立在又冷又窄小的厨房里,满腹悲伤。有生以来我第一次怀疑仁慈上帝的存在,心里比冰雪还要冷。

  The doorbell rang and Peggy ran fleetly to answer it, calling that it must be Santa Claus. Then I heard a man talking heartily to her and went to the door. He was a delivery man, and his arms were full of parcels. "This is a mistake," I said, but he read the name on the parcels and there were for me.
  这时门铃响了,佩吉一边飞奔着去开门,一边叫着一定是圣诞老人。随后我听到一个人与佩吉在热情交谈,便走了过去。他是邮递员,抱着好几个包裹。“这弄错了吧,”我说,但他念出包裹上的名字,确实是给我的。

  When he had gone I could only stare at the boxes. Peggy and I sat on the floor and opened them. A huge doll, three times the size of the one I had bought for her. Gloves. Candy. A beautiful leather purse. Incredible! I looked for the name of the sender. It was the teacher, the address was simply "California", where she had moved.
  他走后,我吃惊地盯着这些盒子。佩吉和我在地板上坐下来,把包裹打开。一个大大的娃娃,有我给她买的娃娃3倍大,还有手套、糖果、漂亮的皮夹子!难以置信!我找出了寄送者的名字,是那个教师,上面只简单地写着“加利福尼亚”,她已经搬到那儿去了。

  Our dinner the nigh was the most delicious I had ever eaten. I forgot I had no money for the rent and only fifteen dollars in my purse and no job. My child and I ate and laughed together in happiness.
  那天的晚饭是我吃过的最可口的晚饭。我忘了还得交房租,忘了兜里只有15元钱,忘了自己还没有工作。我和孩子边吃边幸福地欢笑着。

  Then we decorated the little tree and marveled at it. I put Peggy to bed and set up her gifts around the tree and a sweet peace flooded me like a benediction. I had some hope again. I could even examine the sheaf of bills without cringing.
  饭后我们装点小圣诞树,装点得那么漂亮让我们自己都惊奇不已。我安置好佩吉睡觉,将她的礼物放在圣诞树的周围。一种甜蜜的宁静笼罩着我,像在给我祝福,我心里又燃起了希望。我甚至可以毫不畏惧地打开那一叠账单了。
