For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin ,real life.But,there was always some obsacle in the way,something to be gotten through first,some unfinnished business,time still to be served or a debt to be paid.Then life would begin.At last it dawned on me that there is no way to happiness.Happiness is the way.So treasure every moment that you have and treasure it more because you share it with someone special,someone special enough to spend your time with.Make the most of your time.Don’t waste too much of your time studying,working,or stressing about something that seems important.Do what you want to do to be happy but also do what you can to make the people you care about happy.Remember that time waits for no one.So stop waiting until you take your last test,until you finnish school,until you go back to school,until you have the perfect body,the perfect car,or whatever other perfect thing you desire.
Stop waiting until the weekend,when you can party or let loose,until summer,spring,fall or winter,until you find the right person and get married,until you die,until your born again,to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy.
Happiness is a journey,not a destination.
So work like you don’t need the money,
Love like you have never been hurt,and dance like no one’s watching.
Happiness Is A Journey - By Father Alfred D'Souza
帮忙把这个翻译下来,十分感激

For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin , real life. 在相当长的一段时间里,生活,一段真实的生活对我来说似乎正要开始.
But, there was always some obsacle（是obstacle 障碍吧?） in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinnished business, time still to be served or a debt to be paid. 但是,总会有一些障碍挡在你前进的路上,这是你必须先跨过的,可能是为完成的工作,还需要花点儿时间,也可能是一笔要还清的债务.
Then life would begin.越过了这些障碍之后,生活就会真正开始了.
At last it dawned on me that there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.
最终我了解了没有一条道路是通向幸福的.幸福就是路程本身.（幸福贯穿于整个过程）
So treasure every moment that you have and treasure it more because you share it with someone special, someone special enough to spend your time with. Make the most of your time.
所以你要珍惜你拥有的每一刻,尽量多地去珍惜,因为你正在和一些特别的人、那些足够特别的人一起分享你的时刻.要充分利用好你的时间.
Don’t waste too much of your time studying, working, or stressing about something that seems important.
不要在学习、工作和担心紧张那些看上去很重的事情上浪费太多的时间.
Do what you want to do to be happy but also do what you can to make the people you care about happy.
去做那些你想要做的事情使自己快乐,但同时你也要做那些你力所能及的事情去让关心你的人开心.
Remember that time waits for no one. So stop waiting until you take your last test, until you finnish school, until you go back to school, until you have the perfect body, the perfect car, or whatever other perfect thing you desire.
记住时间不会为任何人停下脚步等待.所以请停止你的等待知道你考完了最后一场考试,直到你从学校毕业,直到你又回到学校,直到你拥有了健康的身体,完美的车或是任何你渴望的完美的东西.

Stop waiting until the weekend, when you can party or let loose, until summer, spring, fall or winter, until you find the right person and get married, until you die, until your born again, to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy.
停止等待吧,直到这个周末,当你有空去参加派对或放松之时,直到夏、春、秋或冬,直到你找到了另一半并且结了婚,直到你死去,直到你获得重生之时再去考虑再没有一个更好的时间比当下更能使你快乐了.
Happiness is a journey, not a destination.
So work like you don’t need the money,
Love like you have never been hurt, and dance like no one’s watching.
幸福就是一段旅程,没有终点.
所以去工作吧,就像你不需要钱一样；去爱吧,就像你从没受伤过一样；去尽情跳舞吧,就像没人注目一样.
Happiness Is A Journey 幸福是一段旅程
