双语：来生 Living Life Over,poesy

If I had my life to live over...I would have talked less and listened more.

I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was strained and the sofa faded.

I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth.

I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed.

I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage.

I would have sat on the lawn with my children and not worried about grass stains.

I would have cried and laughed less while watching television - and more while watching life.

I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding patter if I were not there for the day.

I would never have bought anything just because it was practical, would not show soil or was guaranteed to last a life time.

There would have been more "I love yous" ... more "I'm sorrys"... but mostly, given another shots at life, I would seize every minute... look at it and really see it...live it...and never give it back.

如果有来生……我会少说，多听。

我会请朋友吃饭，即便地毯脏了，沙发褪色了。
我会抽时间听祖父絮叨他的青葱岁月。

我不会因为刚刚把头发梳理定型而要求在炎炎夏日关上车窗。

我会点燃那支雕成玫瑰状的蜡烛，而不让它在储藏室中熔化。

我会与孩子们坐在草地上，而不去担心草地上的污渍。

我会把泪水和笑声更多地留给观察人生，而不是观看电视。

如果生病了，我会卧床休息，而不会自认为没有我，地球就不转了。

我不会再买那些仅仅是实用，或者不显脏，保证能用一生的东西。

我会更多地说“我爱你”、“对不起”……然而，最重要的是，如果有来生，我会抓住每一秒——看人生、读人生、体验人生，再也不放手。
