7、etball game later.去年 8 月，我被告知只能再活 3 到 6 个月了。可现在已是第九个 月了。我想低下身来做俯地挺身 （ 他在人生最后一课时，小试身手， 还幽默地说不要同情他，除非也能做那麽多下的俯地挺身 ） 但一会 将有来一小段报队篮球赛 （ 一般打半场，三对三，先进十一分或十五 赢）。Somebodysaid to me, in light of those numbers, wow, so you aerreally beating the GrimReaper. And what I said without even thinking aboutis that we

8、 dont beat the Reaper by livinglonger. We beat the Reaper byliving well, and living fully.当我说完前面的那些数字后，有些人对我说：天啊，你真的战神 了冷酷的死神。 而我毫不犹疑的回答他： 仅靠多活几天是不能战胜死 神的。战胜死神最好的方式是活得好，活得充实。For the Reaper will comefor all of us, the question is what do we dobetween the time we areborn and the time he shows up.人终会有一

9、死， 关键是从出生的那一刻起到死神降临的这一段时 间内，我们都做了什麽。cause he shows up it is too late to do all the things that youre always文章来源网络，仅供分享学习参考 4 gonna kind of get roundto. So I think the only advice I can give you onhow to live your life well is, first off, remember,its a cliche, but love cliche,it is not the things we

10、 do in life that we regret on our deathbed,it is thethings we do not.当死神降临时， 想要做些我们一直想做而没时间去做的事， 却已 为时晚矣。因此，关于如何才能活的好，我给大家的唯一建议是，马 上去做，请千万牢记，虽说这是老生常谈，但我喜欢老生常谈， 临 终时我们不会后悔做过某些事，而是后悔没有去做某些事。 cause I assure you Ive done a lot of stupid things and none of thembother me. All themistakes, all the dopy thi

11、ngs and all the times I wasembarrassed they dont matter. Whatmatter is that, I can kind of look backand say, pretty muchanytime I got a chance to dosomething cool, I tried tograb for it. And thats where my solace come from.坦率地说，我也曾做过很多蠢事，但它们中没有一件令我烦恼。 所有那些犯过的错，做过的蠢事，还有令我尴尬的时刻，其实它们都 不重要。真正重要的是，当我回首往事

12、时，我会说： 只要有机会去 做那些很酷的事，我将会毫不犹豫的去争取。 这才让我足堪告慰。The second thing I would add to that, and I didnt coordinate on thesubject of this word but Ithink its the right word that comes up, is passion.And you will need to find you passion.Many of you have already done it,manyof you will later, many of you will t

13、ake till your 30s or40s. But dont文章来源网络，仅供分享学习参考 5 give up on finding it. Alright? cause then all youre doing is waiting fortheReaper. Find you passion and follow it.第二件我想说的事就是， 我并没有规划用这个字眼。 但我想这个 字眼很合适，那就是“热情”二字。你们必须要找到自己的热情所在。 你们当中有些人已经找到了， 许多人将来也会找到， 也许很多人要到 三、四十岁时才找得到。但千万不要放弃寻找你的激情。好吗?因为你若放弃了，那你

14、所能做的仅是等待死亡而已。 去寻找你的热情所在， 并追随它的脚步 !And if theres anything I have learned in my life, you will not findpassion in things. And youwill not find that passion in money. Because themore things and the more money you have,the more you will just lookaround and use that as the metric, and there will always b

15、e someonewithmore.如果说我这一生中学到了什麽的话， 那就是你不可能在物质中找 到热情。你不会在金钱中找到热情。因为你拥有的财富越多，你就越 有可能用它去衡量你周围的世界，然而总是有人比你更富有。So your passion must comefrom the things that fuel you from theinside. And honors andawards are nice things but only to be the extent thatthey regard the real respect from yourpeers.And to be th

16、ought well of by other people that you think even more highlyof is atremendous honor that Ive been granted.文章来源网络，仅供分享学习参考 6 因此，热情必须来自于能从内在激发你。荣誉和奖赏是好事，但 仅限于出于同行们真心的尊敬。 或是像我一样能够被自己所尊敬的人 所认同，这才是最大的荣幸。Find you passion and in my experience, no matter what you do atwork or what you do inofficial setting

17、s, that passion would be grounded inpeople. And it will be grounded in therelationships you have with people,and what they think of you, whenyou time comes. And ifyou can gain therespect of those around you, and the passion and true love, and Ive saidthisbefore, but I waited till 39 to get married because I had to wait that longto find someonewhere her happiness was more important than mine.
