英语翻译一：I felt gloomy the other day.The weather had been dark

英语翻译
一：I felt gloomy the other day.The weather had been dark and rainy,and I just didn't feel so positive.It happens to us all,I guess.
As I was sitting at my desk,I remembered it was the birthday of a dear long-time friend-a single,middle-aged woman who has dedicated the past 30 years to nursing and loves her work.
Knowing that she doesn't have family in town,I decided to give her a call.Sure enough,she was on B-shift,scheduled to work late into the evening,and wouldn't have much of a birthday this year.As always,though,she sounded cheerful and was happy I called.
After I hung up,I couldn't shake the feeling that she would really appreciate a little attention on her special day.Still feeling a little gloomy myself,I tried to put it out of my mind,but as the day passed I couldn't shake the thought.I finally gave in,and that evening set off to the hospital with a card,a slice of cheesecake,and a "flower" sculpted from balloons.
My friend's grateful smile and joyful exclamations assured me I'd done the right thing and were a generous reward for the little effort it had taken.
When I got home,I realized that not only had I cheered up a lonely friend on her birthday,but my own gloomy feelings had also disappeared.Making her day had made my own!
Isn't that the way it is when we take the time and make the effort to do something for someone else?It's like the little saying,"Loving kindness is twice blessed; it blesses him who gives,and him who receives."
Cheering up people on their birthdays isn't the only thing we can do to make their day.Life constantly presents us with opportunities to take an extra step or do a kind deed that will make a difference to someone.And the wonderful thing is that as we do,it changes things for the better for us too.Like a boomerang,the blessing comes back to us.

我感到悲观的一天.天气应该已经黑暗,下着雨,我只是没有如此肯定.这一切发生在我们身上,我猜.
正如我在我坐在办公桌前,我记得这是一个亲爱的老朋友,一个单一的,中年女子谁一直致力于在过去30年来护理工作和爱她的生日.
明知她没有在城里的家庭,我决定给她打电话.果然,她在B班计划工作到深夜,而且不会有很大的生日,今年.一如往常,虽然,她很高兴响起欢快和我打电话.
当我挂了,我不能动摇的感觉,她会很感激一个特殊的日子,她很少关注.不过我自己感觉有点灰暗,我试图将它从我的脑海里,但由于天过去了我的思想不能动摇.在我终于给了,晚上动身去用卡,乳酪蛋糕片,和“花”雕塑由气球医院.
我朋友的感激和喜悦的笑容感叹词向我保证我会做正确的事,是一个小的努力,它已采取丰厚的回报.
当我回到家时,我意识到不仅我高兴起来,她的生日一个孤独的朋友,但我自己的悲观情绪也消失了.使她作出了自己的一天!
难道这不是它的方式是,当我们花时间和作出的努力为别人做什么?这就像小说：“慈爱的祝福的两倍,它给谁祝福他,和他谁接收.”
在他们的生日给予祝福,不是我们唯一可以做,使他们的一天.生活不断地提出我们有机会采取额外的步骤或做一类的事,会有所作为的人.而奇妙的是,和我们一样,它改变了我们更好的东西太多.像飞去,祝福回来给我们.
