臺灣籍旅美老師今天交給我們的句子是:
Thinking about death has made me a more present human being because it's a constant reminder that tomorrow is not a guarantee. It makes me want to be a more compassionate and giving person because when you're confronted with the idea of your own mortality you have to ask yourself: like, what mark do I want to leave on this world?
常常思考死亡讓我更懂得活在當(dāng)下,因為這樣做可以不斷提醒自己:未必會有明天。這讓我變得更慈悲,也更懂得付出,因為每當(dāng)你想到自己的生命有限,你就不得不捫心自問:我想在這個世界留下什么?
