我们似乎每天都被琐事缠身，有忙不完的事情，以至于在忙忙碌碌之中迷失了自己，分辨不清什么才是生活中最重要的东西。停下来问问自己，如果你仅剩半年时光，你将如何处理生活的轻重缓急，你将如何度过？ It's hard, from within the storm of every day life, to see things with realperspective（远景，透视）,to know what's important and what's simply pressing on our consciousness right now, demanding attention. We have people emailing us for information and requesting action, we have phone calls and visitors and a long to-do list and a millionchores（杂活，日常零星工作）anderrands（差使，差遣）to run and all of the slings and arrows of our daily reality … and yet, what is important? Ask yourself this: if you suddenly found out you only had 6 months to live (for whatever reason), would the thing in front of you matter to you? Would those 20 emails waiting for a response matter? Would the paperwork waiting to be processed matter? Would the work you're doing matter? Would the meetings you're supposed to have matter? Would a big car and nice house and high-paying job and cool computer and mobile device and nice shoes and clothes matter? I'm not saying they wouldn’t matter … but it's important to ask yourself if they would. What would matter to you? For many of us, it's the loved ones in our lives. If we don't have loved ones … maybe it's time we started figuring out why, and addressing that. Maybe we haven't made time for others, for getting out and meeting others and helping others and beingcompassionate（有同情心的）and passionate about others. Maybe we have shut ourselves in somehow. Or maybe we do have loved ones in our lives, but we don’t seem to have the time we want to spend with them. |
