No one's life is easy

We wanted to grow up quickly when we were children, finally we have been grown up, but our parents have been old. The speed of growning up is never as fast as our parents' aging. So we hope the time could slow down.

当我们还是小孩时，我们希望自己快点长大。 当我们终于长大，但是父母也已老去，我们长大的速度永远赶不上父母老去的速度。于是，我们开始期望时间可以慢一点！

As we all know that life is not easy. For adult, they should be responsible for their own little family, and also need to take care of their parents. Sometimes it's hard to balance the relationship between parents and your own little family.

众所周知，生活不易。作为成年人，我们不仅仅要对我们自己的小家负责，同事我们也应该照顾我们的父母。父母和小家的关系是很难平衡的。

The below is a conversation from my english learning materials.

A:  I am sorry to hear about your father. I hope he dead peacefull.

A.对于你父亲的事我很遗憾，希望他走的安详！

B. Emmm...he knew it was coming, and he had a good life.

He's been sick for about a year.

Luckily, there wasn't much pain.

B.嗯，他知道这即将来临，他有过一个美好的生活。他已经病了快一年了。他不会再痛苦了。

A. So how was you mother?

你母亲还好吗？

B. She isn't taking at well.

Even though she knew it was coming, she has a hard time without him.

She says the house seems so empty, and she feels useless.

她不太好。

虽然她知道父亲即将离去，但是她还是很难适应失去他。

她说感觉房子是如此空旷，她感到很无助。

B. I can imaging.

Does she have many friends?

我能想象。

她有朋友么？

A. She has a few, but she has never been very social. Maybe she'll get out a little more now, but i don't think it's very likely.

She's also beginning to lose her memory.

她有几个朋友，但是她从来不擅长社交。也许她会更多的出去社交，但是我认为可能性不大。

而且她已经开始健忘了。

B. Oh, that's too bad. My mom is losing her memory too.

Sometimes, she desn't know who I am. She mixes me up with my sister.

Oh, 太糟糕了，我妈妈也健忘。有时候，她都不知道我是谁，她经常把我和我妹妹弄混。

A. Does she live by herself?

她独自居住么？

B. She did untill about a year ago.

Then we had her come to stay with us.

一年前是，然后我们就接她来和我们一起住。

A. How is that working out?

有效果么？

B. It was ok first, but now with her memory problems, it isn't working.

We are thinking about putting her into a senior living community. It is expensive, but it can provide her the support she needs.

最初是有效果的，但是现在伴随她得失意问题，不起作用了。

我们正在考虑送她去养老机构，这很贵，但是他们可以给她提供帮助。

A.We may have to do that too. My husband and my mother don't get along at all. He can't relax when she is around.

When I mentioned it to him, he said he would consider it, but only if it were for a very short time.

我们可能也要这样做，我丈夫和我母亲不合，只要我母亲在他就浑身不自在。

每次我提出接我母亲来和我们住，只能住很短的时间他才考虑。

B. Well, i am sorry you have to do it.

It doesn't seem like there are any good choices.

很遗憾你不得不这样做，似乎也没有别的选择。

A. em..I am afraid that's right.

we are getting older too, this is another reminder of our mortality.

We are no longer children, so now it's our turn to take care of our parents.

嗯，恐怕是这样了。

我们也正在老去，这暗示我们的死亡。

我们不在是小孩子了，该轮到我们照顾我们的父母了.

B. The way i see it , it's reminder us to enjoy life while we can.

在我看来，这是提醒我们要及时行乐。

What do you see from the above conversation?

No one's life is easy. sometimes it's not that we don't work hard, life just is!
