如果生命可以重來(lái) （獻(xiàn)給所有女性讀者）

《如果生命可以重來(lái)》，是作者意識(shí)到自己將死于癌癥時(shí)寫下的一首樸素真摯的小詩(shī)。它告訴我們，對(duì)于一個(gè)即將離開這個(gè)世界的人來(lái)說(shuō)，這個(gè)世界上什么是最重要的。

IF I HAD MY LIFE TO LIVE OVER - by Erma Bombeck

(Written after she found out she was dying from cancer.)

I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would

go into a holding pattern if I weren't there for the day.

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

I would have talked less and listened more.

I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was stained, or the sofa faded.

I would have eaten the popcorn in the 'good' living room and worried much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the fireplace.

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

I would have shared more of the responsibility carried by my husband.

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 sat on the lawn with my grass stains.

I would have cried and laughed less while watching television

and more while watching life.

I would never have bought anything just because it was practical,

wouldn't show soil, or was guaranteed to last a lifetime.

Instead of wishing away nine months of preg nancy ,

I'd have cherished every moment and realized that the wonderment

growing inside me was the only chance in life to assist God in a miracle.

When my kids kissed me impetuously, I would never have said, 'Later.

Now go get washed up for dinner.' There would have been more 'I love you's' More 'I'm sorry's.'

But mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize every minute.Look at it and really see it. . Live it and never give it back. STOP SWEATING THE SMALL STUFF!

Don't worry about who doesn't like you, who has more, or who's doing what

Instead, let's cherish the relationships we have with those who do love us.

Let's think about what God has blessed us with.

And what we are doing each day to promote ourselves mentally, physically, emotionally, as well as spiritually.

Life is too short to let it pass you by. We only have one shot at this and then it's gone.

I hope you all have a blessed day.

如果生命可以重來(lái)，

我會(huì)在自己生病時(shí)臥床休息，而不是假裝整個(gè)地球?qū)⒁蛭医袢詹辉诙Ｖ剐D(zhuǎn)。

我會(huì)在那個(gè)玫瑰形狀的粉紅蠟燭在地下室里融化之前將它點(diǎn)燃。

我會(huì)少說(shuō)多聽。

我會(huì)請(qǐng)朋友到家里吃飯，雖然我的地毯滿是污漬，沙發(fā)已經(jīng)褪色。

我會(huì)在干凈的客廳里吃爆米花，而不是擔(dān)心當(dāng)有人想點(diǎn)燃壁爐時(shí)會(huì)看到壁爐里未打掃的灰燼。

我會(huì)抽出時(shí)間聽爺爺絮絮叨叨講他年輕時(shí)的往事。

我會(huì)替丈夫分憂解難。

我永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)在炎熱的夏天因?yàn)樽约旱念^發(fā)剛剛梳理和噴好發(fā)膠而堅(jiān)持別人把車窗搖起。

我會(huì)坐在草坪上，即使綠草會(huì)把我的衣服弄臟。

我會(huì)把眼淚和笑聲留給生活，而不是電視。

我不會(huì)因?yàn)橐患|西實(shí)用、耐臟、耐用而買它。

我不會(huì)盼望妊娠早日過(guò)去，而是會(huì)珍惜懷孕的每一刻，并仔細(xì)體會(huì)腹內(nèi)奇跡的成長(zhǎng)，因?yàn)檫@是我一生中唯一一次幫助上帝創(chuàng)造奇跡的機(jī)會(huì)。

當(dāng)我的孩子莫名地親我時(shí)，我永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)再說(shuō)，“等一會(huì)兒?，F(xiàn)在你要洗手吃飯。” 我會(huì)更多地說(shuō)“我愛你”，“對(duì)不起。”

但是，更重要的是，如果生命可以重來(lái)，我將珍惜每一分鐘。凝視它，并體會(huì)它。體驗(yàn)它，不會(huì)輕易對(duì)它放手。不再為小事而斤斤計(jì)較!

不要因?yàn)槟切┎幌矚g你的人，那些比你富有的人而憂郁，也不要管別人在干什么。讓我們珍惜與那些愛我們的人之間的親情。

讓我們想一下上天所給我們的恩賜，想一下我們每天該如何做才能使自己的心理、身體、情感和心靈得到升華。

生命如此短暫，怎敢蹉跎;人生只有一次，轉(zhuǎn)瞬即逝。

愿你擁有幸福的每一天。
