英文文本:
In this life, what did you miss?
The wife asked the husband when she was 25. Despondently, the husband replied: 'I missed a new job opportunity.' When she was 35, the husband angrily told her that he had just missed the bus. At 45, the husband sadly said: 'I missed the opportunity seeing my closed relative before his last breath.' At 55, the husband said disappointingly: 'I missed a good chance to retire.' At 65, the husband hurriedly replied: 'I missed a dental appointment.' 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!' 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.'
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. Nobody knows what is going to happen one year from now.
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, you loved ones would have nothing to feel sorry about.
中文文本:
在生活中,你錯過了什么?
妻子25歲的時候這樣問丈夫。
丈夫沮喪地回答:“我錯過了一個新的工作機(jī)會。”
35歲時,丈夫生氣地說他錯過了公交車。
45歲時,丈夫悲傷地說:“我錯過了見至親最后一面的機(jī)會。”
55歲時,丈夫失望地說:“我錯過了一個退休的好機(jī)會。”
65歲時,丈夫匆匆地回答:“我錯過了和牙醫(yī)的預(yù)約。”
75歲,妻子不再問丈夫同樣的問題,丈夫跪在病重的妻子面前,想起以前妻子常常問起的那個問題,這次他也問了妻子同樣的問題,妻子笑了笑,一臉平靜地說:“我這一生,沒有錯過你!”
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,從沒在意過妻子。他緊緊地抱住妻子說:“這50多年來,我怎么能允許自己錯過了你對我的愛呢。”
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)到社會的標(biāo)準(zhǔn),犧牲了自己的健康。他們不愿花時間來關(guān)注自己的健康,在孩子成長的過程中錯失了與之共享天倫之樂的機(jī)會。他們忽視了那些關(guān)心他們的人,以及他們的健康。
沒有人知道一年后會發(fā)生什么事情。
生命不是永恒的,所以活在當(dāng)下吧。把你對愛人的感謝說出來,用行動證明你關(guān)心他們。把每一天當(dāng)作人生的最后一個篇章,只有這樣,當(dāng)你離開時,你愛的人們才會沒有遺憾。
