So this neglected space became a constructive one, and people's hopes and dreams made me laugh out loud, tear up, and they consoled me during my own tough times.
這個本來被遺忘的建筑變成了一個極具建設性的地方，這些人的希望和夢想讓我放聲大笑，也黯然落淚，也曾在我經歷困境的時候給我安慰。
It's about knowing you're not alone; it's about understanding our neighbors in new and enlightening ways;
這讓我們相信自己并不孤單，讓我們對鄰居有了全新的啟發心智的了解。
it's about making space for reflection and contemplation, and remembering what really matters most to us as we grow and change.
這為我們營造了一個反省和思考的空間，也提醒我們在不斷成長改變的過程中，什么才是最為重要的。
I made this last year, and started receiving hundreds of messages from passionate people who wanted to make a wall with their community.
這個黑板是我去年做的，然后我就不斷收到一些熱情的人們給我發的信息，說想在他們的社區里也設立一面這樣的墻壁。
So, my civic center colleagues and I made a tool kit, and now walls have been made in countries around the world, including Kazakhstan, South Africa, Australia, Argentina, and beyond.
所以我和我的同事們就做了一個小型工具箱，現在，這面墻壁已經遍布全球，包括哈薩克斯坦，南非，澳大利亞，阿根廷等地。
Together, we've shown how powerful our public spaces can be if we're given the opportunity to have a voice, and share more with one another.
這些跡象表明，如果我們能有一個表達自己的意愿并與他人分享的機會，那么公共空間將發揮巨大的作用。
Two of the most valuable things we have are time, and our relationships with other people.
我們所擁有的最珍貴的兩樣東西，一個是時間，還有一個，是與他人的聯系。
In our age of increasing distractions, it's more important than ever to find ways to maintain perspective, and remember that life is brief and tender.
在這個物欲橫流的時代里努力堅持自我，銘記人生的短暫與生命的脆弱變得比以往任何時代都更重要。
Death is something that we're often discouraged to talk about, or even think about,
我們總是沒有勇氣談論死亡，甚至沒有勇氣去想著死亡。
but I've realized that preparing for death is one of the most empowering things you can do. Thinking about death clarifies your life.
但是我意識到，為死亡做心理準備是我們能夠做到的最有力的事情之一。思考死亡能夠讓你對自己的人生有更清醒的認識。
Our shared spaces can better reflect what matters to us, as individuals and as a community,
公共空間可以更好的體現到底什么對我們是真正重要的，無論是對個人來說或者對于整個社區來說。
and with more ways to share our hopes, fears and stories, the people around us can not only help us make better places, they can help us lead better lives. Thank you.
有了更多的方式來分享我們的希望，恐懼和經歷，我們身邊的人不僅能夠幫助我們創造更美好的地方，更幫助我們過上更美好的生活。謝謝。
