Observe（观察） Beautiful Things
I once had a teacher whose husband died suddenly of a heart attack（发作 攻击）.突发心脏病
About a week after his death, she shared some of her thoughts with a classroom of students.
As the late afternoon sunlight shone through the classroom windows and the class was nearly over,
she removed a few things aside on the edge of her desk and sat down there.
With a gentle（温柔） look on her face, she paused （停顿）and said,
"Before class is over, I'd like to share with all of you a thought that is unrelated to （与。。。无关）class, but which I feel is very important.
Each of us is put here on earth to learn, share, love, appreciate and give of ourselves.
我们每个人都被放在地球上学习，分享，爱，欣赏和奉献自己。
None of us knows when this fantastic experience will end. It can be taken away at any moment. So we must make the most out of every single day."
我们谁也不知道这段美妙的经历何时结束。随时都可以拿走。所以我们必须充分利用每一天。”
Her eyes were beginning to water, but she went on, "So I would like you all to make me a promise（承诺）.
From now on, on your way to school, or on your way home, find something beautiful to enjoy. It doesn't have to be something you see.它并不一定是你看到的东西
It could be the smell of freshly baked bread floating out of someone's house, or it could be the sound of the breeze rustling the leaves in the trees…
可能是从别人家里飘出来的新鲜出炉面包的味道，也可能是微风吹拂树叶的声音…
Please look for these things, and appreciate them, for at anytime they can all be taken away."
The class was completely quiet. We all packed up（打包 收拾） our books and went out of the room silently.
That afternoon, I noticed more things on my way home from school than usual.
Remember: Life is not measured （衡量 量过的）by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath awusual away.
记住：生命不是用我们呼吸的次数来衡量的，而是用我们呼吸的时刻来衡量的。
