第2148期：人生最大的五个遗憾
有一本书：The Top Five Regrets of the Dying – A Life Transformed by the Dearly Departing，作者是澳大利亚当代作家 Bronnie Ware，书中列出了她收集到的大多数人在离世前感到最遗憾的五件事：
1. I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
真希望这辈子我活出了真实的自己，而不是活成了别人眼中的我。
2. I wish I hadn’t worked so hard.
真希望我没有在工作上那么卖命。
3. I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings.
真希望我有勇气去表达真实感受。
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
真希望我跟朋友们一直保持了联系。
5. I wish that I had let myself be happier.
真希望我能让自己更快乐一点。
我把上面每句话中的wish翻译成了“真希望”，也许翻译成“真遗憾，真后悔我不该……”更贴切吧。
知道了大多数人一生最大的遗憾，就好像提前知道了人生的答案，还等什么呢——努力去做这五个wish后面的事，不给自己留遗憾。
- Live a life true to yourself.
- Don’t work too hard.
- Be brave to express your feelings.
- Stay in touch with your friends.
- Let yourself be happier.
人总要等到了弥留之际无计可施的最后关口，才想起一辈子忘记了一件最重要的事——
“Most people have been so busy dying that they forgot to start living.”
I forgot who said this but the moment I read it I was like – WOW!
