At 75, the wife did not ask the husband anymore, the husband was kneeling in front of the very sick wife. Remembering the question the wife used to ask him, this time he asked the wife the same question. The wife, with a smile and peaceful look, replied: 'In this life, I did not miss having you!'
75歲,妻子不再問(wèn)丈夫同樣的問(wèn)題,丈夫跪在病重的妻子面前,想起以前妻子常常問(wèn)起的那個(gè)問(wèn)題,這次他也問(wèn)了妻子同樣的問(wèn)題,妻子笑了笑,一臉平靜地說(shuō):“我這一生,沒(méi)有錯(cuò)過(guò)你!”
The husband was full of tears. He always thought that they could be together forever. He was always busy with work and trifles. So much so he had never been thoughtful to his wife. The husband hugged the wife tightly and said: 'Over 50 years, how I had allowed myself to miss your deep love for me.'
丈夫滿眼淚水,他總是認(rèn)為可以和妻子白頭到老,于是總是忙于工作和瑣事,從沒(méi)在意過(guò)妻子。他緊緊地抱住妻子說(shuō):“這50多年來(lái),我怎么能允許自己錯(cuò)過(guò)了你對(duì)我的愛(ài)呢。”
In the busy city life, there are many people who are always busy with work. These people revolve their lives around their jobs, these people sacrifice all their times and health to meet the social expectations. They are unwilling to spend times on health care. They miss the opportunity to be with their children in their growing up. They neglect the loved ones who care for them, and also their health.
在繁忙的城市生活中,有人總是忙于工作。他們整天圍著工作轉(zhuǎn),甚至為了達(dá)到社會(huì)的標(biāo)準(zhǔn),犧牲了自己的健康。他們不愿花時(shí)間來(lái)關(guān)注自己的健康,在孩子成長(zhǎng)的過(guò)程中錯(cuò)失了與之共享天倫之樂(lè)的機(jī)會(huì)。他們忽視了那些關(guān)心他們的人,以及他們的健康。
Nobody knows what is going to happen one year from now.
沒(méi)有人知道一年后會(huì)發(fā)生什么事情。
Life is not permanent, so always live in the now. Express your gratitude to your loved ones in words. Show your care with actions. Treat everyday as the last episode of life. In this way, when you are gone, your loved ones would have nothing to feel sorry about.
生命不是永恒的,所以活在當(dāng)下吧。把你對(duì)愛(ài)人的感謝說(shuō)出來(lái),用行動(dòng)證明你關(guān)心他們。把每一天當(dāng)作人生的最后一個(gè)篇章,只有這樣,當(dāng)你離開(kāi)時(shí),你愛(ài)的人們才會(huì)沒(méi)有遺憾。
