  I   4   myself thinking of when I held her in my arms sitting in a chair by my wife's hospital   5  .One day old.So small, so beautiful, so perfect, so totally reliant on her new, untested parents.My wife changed from the day I drove this little baby home from the   6  .I saw myself differently that day,   7  

  The last few days   8   she left for college, I touched her arm, her face-anything-  9   that when my wife and I returned home, she would not be with us and there would be   10   to touch.I had so much to say, but no words with which to say it.

  Suddenly she looked up,   11   me staring at her, which caused her to say to her mother, “Mom, Dad's looking at me funny.”She then said,“It'll be   12  , Dad.I'll be home from school soon.”I told her she would have a   13   year.But I said little else.I was   14   that I would say something too small for what I was feeling,   15   I only held on to our goodbye hug a little longer, a little   16

  When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like:“If you live each day as if it were your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right.” It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself, “If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?”

  Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered(遇到)to help me make the big choice in life.

  About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer.The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that was incurable, and that I would live no longer than three to six months.My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is my doctors’ code for preparing yourself to die.

  I lived with that diagnosis all day.I was completely in despair.Later that evening, I had another biopsy(活组织检查)and my wife told me that tumor turned to be curable with surgery.I had the surgery and I’m fine now.

  This was the closest I’ve been to facing death.To tell the truth, no one wants to die.And yet death is the destination we all share.No one has ever escaped it.It clears out the old to make room for the new.Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away.

  Your time is so limited that you shouldn’t waste it repeating someone else’s life.Don’t be trapped by dogma(教条)-which is living with the results of other people’s thinking.Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.And most importantly, have the courage to follow your heart.It somehow already knows what you truly want to become.Everything else is secondary.
