“If I died today, how would I feel about my life?”Life is fragile.

“如果我今天死去，我将如何看待自己的一生？”——生命是极其脆弱的。

A good friend of mine called me today and shared that his girlfriend’s brother passed away last night. He was married, with two young children. He died of a massive heart attack in the middle of the night. And he was only 44 years old.

就在今天，一位好友给我打了电话。他告知我，就在昨天晚上他女朋友的哥哥离开了人世。他已经结了婚，并且有了两个孩子。就在昨晚半夜的时候，心脏病夺走了他的生命。他才刚满44岁！

"It could never happen to me," we think. "I’m too young to die." But how young is "too young to die?"

我们总会想：“这样的事情绝对不会发生在我的身上，我现在还很年轻，我还不能死去。”可是，要多年轻呢？

We really don’t know how many days or years we will live. An accident, such as by plane, automobile, or other mishap could claim our life. Or perhaps, an unusual illness. Or a vital organ could fail.

生命还将继续多久，我们无从知晓。空难、车祸、不治之症、身体器官出现严重问题……任何的不测都可能夺走我们的生命。

So what would we say, if our life were to end today? Would we be satisfied? Would we know that we had lived our life fully, on purpose? Could we feel we "did it right"?

那么，如果今天生命就走到了尽头，我们会对自己说些什么呢？我很满足？我的生活过得很充实，很有意义？我这样做是正确的？

It is a hard question to answer. I recently had a cousin pass away from cancer. I don’t know how she would have answered this question. But I’m 99% positive she wasn’t "ready" to go. Not with two little ones and a loving husband and so much life ahead of her (she was 35 years old).

这是一个很难回答的问题。就在不久前，癌症夺走了我堂姐年轻的生命。我不知道那一个时刻她是怎么回答这个问题的。但是，我绝对相信，她不想走，不想离开。她有两个孩子，她有一个很爱很爱她的丈夫，还有很多的美好在等着她，然而……（她才35岁而已）。

If we live our life completely every day, we still may not be thrilled with the thought of death.

即使我们每天都过得很充实，过得很圆满，当想到死亡的时候也绝不可能会激动不已。

Are there things we can be doing better? Are there people we can love better? Can we live our aspirations, today? If we know the answer, what are we waiting for to make us do it? Death? Life is fragile. Now is the time to live fully and bless those friends and family who grace us with their love.

还有我们能做得更好的事情吗？还有需要我们用爱去呵护的人吗？能实现自己的报复吗？如果知道答案，那还等什么？努力去做便可！死亡？生命是脆弱的。现在，就让我们认真的活着，为那些给予我们爱的亲人和朋友祈福，愿他们健康长寿！
