Lifelong regret translated by Zhang Bao

Once upon a time, there was a child who lived happily with his parents and siblings. He was very playful, carefree all day, and never thought about the future. He plays with his siblings, and when his siblings are no longer playing, he plays by himself. Whenever someone advised him to hurry up and do something, he always said, "It doesn't matter, there's tomorrow." ”

When he was a little older, school was a great place for him. He started studying, made friends with his classmates, and felt very happy. However, he didn't see it as his pleasure. It all came so naturally that he felt it was a part of his life. One day, he had a hard fight with his best friend, and although he knew that he was wrong, he never took the initiative to apologize or reconcile with his best friend.

For this, he explained, "It's okay, wait until tomorrow." ”

When he grew up, his best friend was no longer a part of his life. Although he had some friends around him, they were very cold to each other, and they didn't bother to greet each other when they looked at each other. He didn't think so, because he thought he had other good friends. He eats, drinks, and has fun with his friends, does homework together, and even fools around together. Yes, they are a very good group of friends.

When he graduated, work kept him busy. He had a very beautiful and virtuous girlfriend, and soon became his faithful companion. He started to get busy with work because he wanted to be promoted to the top position in the shortest possible time.

At this time, he remembered his good friend. He missed them terribly, but he never tried to keep in touch with them, not even the phone numbers of any of them. He always said, "Man, I'm so tired, I'll catch them tomorrow." ”

It didn't affect him much because he always found some guys who were willing to go to the bar with him. As time passed, he slowly forgot about his friends.

He got married and had children, and in order to make his family live a comfortable life, he worked hard, he never bought flowers for his wife, and he did not remember his wife's birthday and wedding anniversary. However, his wife always understood him and did not blame him. He often felt guilty and longed for the opportunity to say "I love you" to his wife, but he never made up his mind to do so.

His reasoning was, "It doesn't matter, I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”

He never attended the children's birthday party because he didn't know how it would affect the children. One by one, the children slipped away from him because they had never really been with their father. One day, disaster struck, and his wife died in an accident. It was a hit-and-run accident. That day, he was having an important meeting. He did not understand that this was a fatal disaster. When he came to his wife's bedside, she was almost dead. Before he could say "I love you," his wife had died.

After the death of his wife, the man wanted to find comfort in the children, however, he soon realized that the children did not want to communicate with him at all. Soon, the children grew up and each had their own family. No one cared about the old man anymore, because he had never found time to be with them in the past.

He was admitted to the best nursing home and could provide excellent service. The money he had saved for his fiftieth, sixtieth and seventieth wedding anniversaries. The money, which was intended to be used for vacations to Hawaii, New Zealand and other countries, can now only be put into a fund that pays for the money he keeps at home.

From then until his deathbed, only the elderly and nurses were taking care of him. This loneliness was something he had never felt before.

On his deathbed, he called a nurse and said to her, "Ah, if only I had known all this...... and he died with tears on his face.

Time doesn't stop for anyone, and you've come a long way in life before you realize it. If you feel like you need to listen to your friend, don't hesitate to pick up the phone. If you have many dreams to achieve, do it as soon as possible.

Last, but not least, if you feel like you need to tell someone that you care about him, don't wait until it's too late. If you think you'll wait until a certain day to do it, then that day may never come. If you always think that tomorrow will come, then tomorrow will pass quickly. That's when you'll realize that time has passed.

Please cherish tomorrow and do not live in regret.
