The Wise Old Man 智慧老伯的一席話 原稿 :  溫 Sir 中譯  :  老柳 2008.2
A man of 92 years, short, very well-presented, who takes great care in his appearance, is moving into an old people’s home today.  His wife of 70 has recently died, and he is obliged to leave his home. 一位 92 歲、非常注重外表 、 身材不高 但是衣著整潔的老伯,今天正搬進老人公寓 他那位 70 歲的太太最近剛過世, 他感到有責任離開老家
After waiting several hours in the retirement home lobby, he gently smiles as he is told that his room is ready.  他在公寓大廳坐上好幾個小時,當他聽到他的房間 已準備好了的時候,臉上不覺露出微笑 As he slowly walks to the elevator, using his cane, I describe his small room to him, including the sheet hung at the window which serves as a curtain.  他用柺杖緩步走著,護理員在一旁陪他說明房間, 包含掛在窗上當作窗簾那條床單。
-   " I like it very much", he says, with the enthusiasm of an 8 year old boy who has just been given a new puppy.  -"M. Gagné, you haven’t even seen the room yet, hang on a moment, we are almost there. " 他說 : “ 我非常喜歡這”。旁邊還跟著一位八歲 熱心的小男孩,手中捧著剛拿到的新布偶 “ 老伯,您還沒看到房內了 , 等一會就到啦”
" That has nothing to do with it ", he replies.  "  Happiness is something I choose in advance.  Whether or not I like the room does not depend on the furniture, or the decor – rather it depends on how I decide to see it. "  老伯回答說 :”  都一樣,沒關係啦” “ 我早就選擇好我的幸福了,我不會因為 這間房內有些好傢俱或是裝潢就感到意外, 關鍵是我要怎麼去欣賞它”
"  It is already decided in my mind that I like my room.  It is a decision I take every morning when I wake up. "  “ 我腦中已經確定,我會喜歡這間房子。 因為每日早上一起床我就會作一次這樣的決定”
"  I can choose.  I can spend my day in bed enumerating all the difficulties that I have with the parts of my body that no longer work very well, or I can get up and give thanks to heaven for those parts that are still in working order. "  “ 我也能有不同選擇。 我能選擇終日躺著 , 數者身上的器官 唉,有好多已不靈光。 我也能站起身來感恩上蒼,我身上的器官, 竟然還有那麼多依舊是蠻管用的”
"  Every day is a gift, and as long as I can open my eyes, I will focus on the new day, and all the happy memories that I have built up during my life. "  " Old age is like a bank account.  You withdraw in later life what you have deposited along the way. " “ 我們活著的每一天都是神的恩賜,只要我還能睜開眼睛 我都要專心於這新的一天,並想著我這一生快樂的時光” “ 老年就好比銀行的帳戶,你下半輩子提領出來的快樂 都是你上半輩子存進去的”
So, my advice to you is to deposit all the happiness you can in your bank account of memories.  Thank you for your part in filling my account with happy memories, which I am still continuing to fill… 所以嘛,我要提醒你趁早將你的快樂,存進你的腦海銀行 我要感謝你在我腦海銀行中也存入了一些快樂 我也將持續將快樂存進我的帳戶中
1. Free your heart from hate. 5. Expect less.  4. Give more. 3. Live simply. 2. Free your mind from worry. Remember these simple guidelines for happiness. 請記住下面簡單易學的幸福原則 1.  心中無恨 2.  腦中無憂 3.  生活簡單 4.  多些付出 5.  少些期望
If you would like, send this message on….it is the way we touch each other with simple truths that spreads goodness in the world.  Who knows, a miracle may happen as a result…. 願意的話,轉寄他人 將善意廣傳,是與他人交往的真諦 也許,會有一些奇蹟出現你身…
