第27章 TreasureAllAppearances学会珍惜(1)

人生就是由无数遗憾累加而成的,我们总在生命最垂危的时刻发现:这一生中,有太多值得尝试的事情,却被我们无情地错过了……Say I love You 说出你的爱AnonymousThere was once a guy who suffered from cancer, a cancer that can‘t be cured .He was 18 years old and he could die anytime .All his life, he was stuck in his house being taken cared by his mother .He never went outside but he was sick of staying home and wanted to go out for once .So he asked his mother and she gave him permission.

He walked down his block and found a lot of stores .He passed a CD store and looked through the front door for a second as he waled. He stopped and went back to look into the store .He saw a beautiful girl about hid age and he knew it was love at first sight .He opened the door and walked in, not looking at anything else but her .he walked closer and closer until he was finally at the front desk where she sat.

She looked up and asked:“can I help you?”

She smiled and he thought it was the most beautiful smile he was ever seen before and wanted to kiss her right there.

He said:“Uh … Yeah… Umm… I would like to buy a CD.” He picked one out and gave her money for it.

“Would you like me to wrap it for you?”she asked, smiling her cute smile again.

He nodded and she went to the back .She came back with the wrapped CD and gave it to him .He took it and walked out of the store.

He went home and from then on, he went to that store every day and bought a CD, and she wrapped it for him. He took the CD home and put it in his closet .He was still too shy to ask her out and he really wanted to but he couldn’t .His mother found out about this and told him to just ask her .So the next day, he tool all his courage and went to the store as usual. He bought a CD like he did every day and once again she went to the back of the store and came back with it wrapped. He took it and when she wasn‘t looking, he left his phone number on the desk and run out …RRRRRING!!!

One day the phone rang and the mother picked it up and said, “hello?”It was the girl!!!

The mother started to cry and said,“you don’t know? He passed away yesterday…”

The line was quiet except for the cries of the boy‘s mother .Later in the day, the mother went into the boy’s room because she wanted to remember him .She thought she would start by looking his clothes .So she opened the closet .

She was face to face with piles and piles of unopened CDs .She was surprised to find all these CDs and she picked one up and sat down on the bed and she started to open one .Inside, there was a CD and as she took it out of the wrapper, out fell a piece of paper .The mother picked it up and started to read it .It said: Hi … I think U R really cute. Do you wanna goout with me? Love, Jocelyn.

The mother was deeply moved and opened another CD… Again there was a piece of paper .It said: Hi … I think U R really cute .Do you wanna go out with me? Love, Jocelyn.

Love is… when you‘ve had a huge fight but then decide to put aside your egos, hold hands and say,“I love you.”

当你爱一个人同时心里又矛盾着要不要告诉他时,请你先放下面子,攥紧手,说出“我爱你”。

参考翻译(修立芬)

从前有个男孩患了癌症,是一种无法治愈的绝症。他当时才18岁,随时都有可能失去生命。他不得不待在家里,所有的生活都由母亲来照料。他从不出去,就这样他在家里待烦了想出去看看。然后他告诉了母亲,母亲答应了让他出去转转。

他就来到他家附近的街上转,街上有很多商店。当他经过一家卖唱片的商店时他向里面瞟了一眼。他停下了又折了回去向店里看去。因为他看到了一个和他年纪相当的女孩儿,女孩儿长得很漂亮。他知道这就是一见钟情。他推开门走了进去,进去后他直盯着女孩儿看。他一步一步走向女孩儿直到离女孩儿很近的柜台前。

女孩儿抬头问他:“您需要点什么吗?”女孩儿微笑着,他觉得这笑容是他所见过最美丽的笑容,此刻他很想上去吻她一下。

他吱唔的回答:“呃……是的……嗯……我想买张CD。”

他挑出一张来并付了钱。“还需要我给您包起来吗?”女孩儿问,同时又露出了她可爱的笑容。

他点了点头,女孩儿拿着CD走进另一间屋,一会儿女孩儿出来了,把包好的CD给了他。他拿着CD走出了商店。

从那以后他每天都去这家唱片店买一张CD。女孩儿依然是每次给他包好。每次到家他都把CD放在他的衣柜里。他太害羞了,不敢把女孩儿约出来,虽然他很想。男孩儿的妈妈看出了他的心思,妈妈鼓励他去把女孩约出来。于是第二天他鼓起了勇气。和往常一样他走进这家店,然后买了一张CD。女孩儿给他包好,趁女孩儿不注意,他把他的电话号码留在了桌子上,然后抓紧离开了。

叮铃铃……

一天电话响了,男孩儿的妈妈接起电话:“喂?”电话里竟然是那个女孩儿!

妈妈哭了起来:“你还不知道吧?昨天他已经去了……”除了母亲的抽泣声,电话里一阵沉默。几天后妈妈太想他了,她走进了男孩儿的卧室。她想看看儿子的衣服,然后打开了儿子的衣橱。

映入眼帘的是一摞摞未打开的CD。看到这些CD妈妈觉得很奇怪,于是抽出一张打开了包装。从包装纸里她拿出CD,同时掉出了一张小纸片,她捡起读了起来:你好,我觉得你很可爱,咱们可以出去走走吗?爱你的乔斯林。

妈妈很感动,她又打开了另外一张,包装里面也有一张同样的纸条:你好,我觉得你很可爱,咱们可以出去走走吗?爱你的乔斯林。爱是……当你爱一个人同时心里又矛盾着要不要说出来时,请你先放下面子,攥紧他的手,说出“我爱你”。

Dad’s Kiss 父亲的吻

Anonymous

The board meeting had come to an end. Bob started to stand up and jostled the table, spilling his coffee over his notes.“How embarrassing. I am getting so clumsy in my old age.”

Everyone had a good laugh, and soon we were all telling stories of our most embarrassing moments. It came around to Frank who sat quietly listening to the others. Someone said,“Come on, Frank, tell us your most embarrassing moment.”

Frank laughed and began to tell us of his childhood,“I grew up in San Pedro. My dad was a fisherman, and he loved the sea. He had his own boat, but it was hard making a living on the sea. He worked hard and would stay out until he caught enough to feed the family. Not only just enough for our family, but also for his mom and dad and the other kids that were still at home.”

He looked at us and said,“I wish you could have met my dad. Hewas a big man, and he was strong from pulling the nets and fighting the seas for his catch. When you got close to him, he smelled like the ocean. He would wear his old canvas, foul-weather coat and his bibbed overalls. His rain hat would be pulled down over his brow. No matter how much my mother washed them, they would still smell of the sea and of fish.”

Frank‘s voice dropped a bit,“when the weather was bad, he would drive me to school. He had this old truck that he used in his fishing business. That truck was older than he was. It would wheeze and rattle down the road. You could hear it coming for blocks. As he would drive toward the school, I would shrink down into the seat hoping to disappear.

“Half the time, he would slam to a stop and the old truck would belch a cloud of smoke. He would pull right up in front, and it seemed like everybody would be standing around and watching. Then he would lean over and give me a big kiss on the cheek and tell me to be a good boy. It was so embarrassing for me. Here, I was twelve years old and my dad would lean over and kiss me goodbye!”

He paused and then went on,“I remember the day I decided I was too old for a goodbye kiss. When we got to the school and came to a stop, he had his usual big smile. He started to lean toward me, but I put my hand up and said,’No, Dad.‘It was the first time I had ever talked to him that way, and he had this surprised look on his face.
