A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

死

Die

When we die our money, fame, and honors will be meaningless. We own nothing in this world. Everything we think we own is in reality only being loaned to us until we die. And on our deathbed at the moment of death, no one but God can save our souls.

当我们死后,我们的金钱、名誉和荣誉都将失去意义。我们在这个世界上一无所有。我们自以为拥有的一切,实际上只是借给我们的,直到我们死去。在我们弥留之际,只有上帝才能拯救我们的灵魂。

This is the sea of life, and I'm drownin I know I can swim, but feel like I keep sinkin down in these waters and I cain't breathe, I feel like I'm gon' blow it. I can see people holdin a life jacket but they won't throw it. Entertained by my struggle and they'd love to see me die.

这是生命的海洋,而我却淹没在其中。我知道我会游泳,但我感觉自己一直在下沉,无法呼吸,我感觉我要把它吹走了。我能看到人们拿着救生衣,但他们不会扔。我的挣扎让他们很开心,他们很乐意看到我死去。

If watching your child die is a parent's worst nightmare, imagine having to tell your other child that his sister is dead... Although I am certain that he cried, that we all cried, what I remember more is how we collapsed into each other, as if the weight of our loss literally crushed us.

如果看着你的孩子死去是父母最可怕的噩梦,想象一下不得不告诉你的另一个孩子他的妹妹死了……虽然我确信他哭了,我们都哭了,但我记得更多的是我们是如何瘫倒在一起的,仿佛我们失去的重量真的把我们压垮了。

The particular way I'm going to die is not going to be particularly pleasant. It will probably be physically uncomfortable, and it won't be an easy thing for my wife and kids to watch. I think it will be a real challenge to see if I can squeeze the lemons hard enough to still get lemonade the last few weeks.

我的死亡方式并不会特别令人愉快。这可能会让我的身体感到不舒服,而且对我的妻子和孩子来说,观看比赛也不是件容易的事。我想这将是一个真正的挑战,看看我是否能挤柠檬足够努力,仍然得到柠檬汁在过去几周。
