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 pregnancy, 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...”, more “I’m sorry...”
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.
生病了,我就卧床休息。因为我知道,一天不工作,地球照样转动。
我会点燃雕成玫瑰状的红蜡烛,不至于让它在闲置中消融。
我要少说话,多聆听。
我要请朋友来家中做客,即使地毯弄脏了,或沙发褪色了,也不在乎。
我要在装潢“考究”的客厅里吃爆米花,就算有人在壁炉里生火带起了炉灰,我也不会操那么多闲心。
我要从容悠闲地听爷爷讲他年轻时候的故事。
我绝不会因为在夏天头发刚梳理好,还喷过发胶,就坚持要把车窗玻璃摇起来。
我要和孩子们一起坐在草地上,丝毫不顾忌草渍。
我要在看电视时少哭点儿,少笑些——在看人生时,多哭些,多笑点儿。
我不会在买东西时只注重实用性、耐脏或耐磨。我不会在期盼中度过九个月妊娠期,我要珍惜每一刻,要清楚地认识到,体内孕育着的神奇是我今生唯一协助上帝创造奇迹的机会。
