27年人生教會我的事：27條勵志的人生感言
Age is a state of mind. It is said that if you dont mind, it doesnt matter. 年齡是一種心態(tài)。常言道：不上心，不擾心。
Yet when I recently turned 27, a desire to stop for a moment crept in. In almost three decades, I thought to myself, What is it that I have done and what is it that I wished to do instead? 雖然我才剛過27，不過退卻之心也悄悄來臨。曾心中暗想：在過去將近三十的人生里，我做過什么，如果可以重來，又會做什么。
Though Im not sure as to what my impact has been in this world, I decided to see how the world has impacted me instead. We spend our lives trying to learn, grasping as much knowledge as we can to get ahead of the game. We learn from the brave and from the cowardly, the rich and the not so rich, the greedy and the selfless. 盡管我無法確定自己對這個世界有怎樣的影響，但我可以看到世界對我的影響。我們花時間學(xué)習(xí)，為了出人頭地努力掌握更多的知識。勇氣或怯懦、貧窮或富有、貪婪抑或無私，都是我們學(xué)習(xí)的源泉。
So it made me wonder: What is it that Ive learned in these short but fabulous years and which thoughts would I like to keep close to my heart forever? 所以27年的人生讓我思考：從這短暫而美好的年華中我學(xué)到了什么，而哪些觀點又是我希望可以一直銘記在心的?
