It was one warm evening many years ago.

那是多年前的一个温暖夜晚，

After spending nearly every waking minute with Angel for eight straight days, I knew that I had to tell her just one thing.

在和安吉尔度过了整整八个日夜之后，我想我一定要告诉她一件事。

So late at night, just before she fell asleep, I whispered it in her ear.

于是在那天深夜，在她睡着之前，我在她的耳边轻轻告诉了她。

She smiled — the kind of smile that makes me smile back — and she said,

听完，微笑浮现在她的脸上，我也跟着笑了起来，然后她说道，

"When I'm seventy-five and I think about my life and what it was like to be young, I hope that I can remember this very moment."

“当我七十五岁，回想年轻时候的人生时，我希望自己能记住这个时刻。”

A few seconds later she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

不一会儿，她闭上眼睛，睡着了。

The room was peaceful — almost silent. All I could hear was the soft purr of her breathing.

房间里安静而祥和，几乎听不到任何声音，我只听得到她安稳的呼吸声。

I stayed awake thinking about the time we'd spent together and all the choices in our lives that made this moment possible.

我清醒地回想着我们一起度过的时光和那些冥冥之中成就这一时刻的人生抉择。

And at some point, I realized that it didn't matter what we'd done or where we'd gone. Nor did the future hold any significance.

我忽然意识到我们曾经做过什么或去过什么地方都不重要，甚至未来怎么样也不重要。

All that mattered was the serenity（平静） of the moment. Just being with her and breathing with her.

最重要的是享受此刻的宁静，和她同呼吸共命运。

We must not allow the clock, the calendar, and external pressures to rule our lives and blind us to the fact that

我们不能让时钟、日历或者其他任何外部的压力支配我们的生活，让我们忽视这样的事实——

each indivial moment of our lives is a beautiful mystery and a miracle — especially those moments we spend in the presence of a loved one.

我们人生的每一个时刻都是一个美丽的奇迹，那些与爱人一同度过的时光尤其应该倍加珍惜。
