That was a memorable day to me, for it made great changes in me. But, it is the same with any life. Imagine one selected day struck out of it, and think how different its course would have been. Pause you who read this, and think for a moment of the long chain of iron or gold, of thorns or flowers, that would never have bound you, but for the formation of the first link on one memorable day.
那一天在我是个值得纪念的日子,因为它使我起了极大的变化。其实,人生在世,谁都有这样的经验。试想你一生中有一天被勾销了,你的生命历程将会有多大的不同。读到这里,请你停下来想一想:你之所以会被那无数铁链或金链、荆棘或花朵所缠缚,都是因为在某一个值得纪念的日子里,你打下了第一个链环啊。
元旦几天说了好多话,有一段对话也提到了人生轨迹可能因为某个选择而改变;元旦结束,有幸能看到这么诗意且美妙的句子,幸甚至哉!
