堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的心，是生活中最重要的（雙語(yǔ)）

I may be a bit old school but I think that people who store all of their pictures on their smart phones are missing out on something. There is nothing like seeing a loved one’s smiling face looking down on you from a picture frame on your wall. It is both comforting and reassuring, almost like they are watching over you while you work at your desk.

我的思想多少有點(diǎn)守舊，總覺(jué)得那些手機(jī)里存著的照片少了些什么，不如將那些所愛(ài)之人的照片掛在墻上，再?zèng)]有比看著他們的笑容，讓人覺(jué)得舒服安心。就好像他們都在看著你工作一樣。

As I work at my own desk I can see my Mom’s picture smiling down on me. She left us too soon. She was only 55 years old when cancer took her. If one’s years here were based on merit then she should have lived to be over 100.

在我的工作桌上放著母親的照片，工作時(shí)照片中的母親對(duì)著我微笑。她走得太早，55歲那年因癌癥去世，假使以一個(gè)人的美德來(lái)決定她的壽命的話，那她肯定能活到100歲。

My Dad’s kind smile is next to hers. It has only been a few years since he passed. Sometimes I still pick up the telephone wanting to call him and tell him something that has just happened to me only to remember that he is gone.

有著父親慈祥笑容的照片就排在母親照片的旁邊，他去世沒(méi)有幾年。有時(shí)候，我拿起電話想要打給他，告訴他才發(fā)生的事情，才意識(shí)到他已經(jīng)不再人世了。

My Nana’s picture is there too, holding the 90 years young sign at her birthday party 16 years ago. How I wish I could walk into her kitchen again, have a talk, and share a big slice of homemade Italian bread with her.

我奶奶的照片也在墻上，那張照片拍攝于16年前，是她90歲大壽聚會(huì)照片。我多想再走進(jìn)她的廚房，和她聊聊天，一起分一塊自制的意大利面包吃。

Sometimes looking at these pictures gives me a touch of melancholy and sadness. I still miss them all and I don’t feel ready to be the oldest generation yet. Most of the time, though, I only feel the warmthand joy that comes from a million loving memories that these pictures bring back.

有時(shí)候看著這些照片讓我憂傷難過(guò)，我依然思念著他們，我還沒(méi)有準(zhǔn)備好成為家庭中最年老的一代。但是大部分的時(shí)間這些照片帶給我的是無(wú)盡的愛(ài)的回憶，讓我感到溫暖美好。

It makes me feel blessed knowing that I had them all in my life for the years that I did. It makes me want to follow their loving example in my own life as well.

他們?cè)谖疑械某霈F(xiàn)讓我感到幸福，他們是愛(ài)的楷模，讓我再自己的生活中學(xué)習(xí)效仿。

A lot of people say that you have to have a hard heart to get through life. Others say a soft heart is better. I myself think that a strong heart is best. We need a heart that loves through the pain. We need a heart that keeps loving even when we lose the people we love the most.

很多人都說(shuō)度過(guò)一生需要一顆堅(jiān)硬的心，另一些人認(rèn)為內(nèi)心要柔軟才好。我覺(jué)得一顆堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的心是最好的，我們?cè)谕纯嘀行枰獝?ài)，哪怕失去摯愛(ài)也繼續(xù)把愛(ài)傳承。

We need a heart that knows that “Anyone who lives in love lives in God, and God lives in him.” May your heart be strong then. May your love shine from your pictures and from your life.

那些心存上帝者，上帝便與他同在。愿你擁有一顆堅(jiān)強(qiáng)之心，愿你所愛(ài)之人，不光在照片中，還在你的生活中永存生輝。
