与一初中好友相聚,惊觉居然15年未见,再见却一点隔阂感都没有!一切似乎就在昨日。
我轻轻诉说着自己现在的生活,TA亦佩服亦惊喜亦感叹,似乎我一直都是那样出类拔萃。而印象里TA一路的成长,也一直是被宠坏的孩子,一直到无意中说起他喜爱的姐姐,在几年前在一场车祸中离开了!
我震惊的同时一股悲伤涌上心头,印象里姐姐很漂亮,非常知性温和,人缘极广,偶尔的几次接触,对她印象却很深刻。
于是晚上回来好久沉浸在悲伤的情绪中,反复读着下面这首最近在美国很火的一首诗
《走在自己的时区里》
在时间上,纽约走在加州前面三个小时,
New York is 3 hours ahead of California,
但加州并没有变慢。
but it does not make California slow.
有人22岁就毕业了,
Someone graduated at the age of 22,
但等了五年才找到好工作!
but waited 5 years before securing a good job!
有人25岁就当上了CEO,
Someone became a CEO at 25,
却在50岁去世了。
and died at 50.
也有人直到50岁才当上CEO,
While another became a CEO at 50,
最后活到90岁。
and lived to 90 years.
有人依然单身,
Someone is still single,
而别人却早已结婚。
while someone else got married.
奥巴马55岁退任总统,
Obama retires at 55,
而川普却是70岁才开始当。
but Trump starts at 70.
世上每个人都有自己的发展时区。
Absolutely everyone in this world works based on their Time Zone.
身边有些人看似走在你前面,
People around you might seem to go ahead of you,
也有人看似走在你后面。
some might seem to be behind you.
但其实每个人在自己的时区有自己的步程。
But everyone is running their own RACE, in their own TIME.
不用嫉妒或嘲笑他们。
Don't envy them or mock them.
他们都在自己的时区,你在你的!
They are in their TIME ZONE, and you are in yours!
所以,别放松。
So, Never Give up
你没有落后,
You're not LATE.
你没有领先。
You're not EARLY.
在命运为你安排的属于你自己的时区里,一切都非常准时。
You are very much ON TIME, and in your TIME ZONE Destiny set up for you.
好,别忘了危机与奋斗
Keep fighting and stay alert, no matter how good;
难,别忘了梦想与坚持
Keep dreaming and carry on, no matter how hard;
忙,别忘了读书与锻炼
Keep reading and excersing, no matter how busy;
人生,就是一场长跑
Life is a long run❤️
