I pray silently,sometimes,in the dead of night,that ancient cry of a poet “Deliver my soul from the sword,and my darling from the power of the dog.” Yet I know the death comes to us all,and sometimes comes suddenly.We must therefore plan to live forever,but live as if we will die tomorrow.We live on,I’m sure,in the lives of those we love,and therefore we ought to have a care for what they will remember and what they will treasure.If more parents knew this in their hearts to be true,there might be fewer knives on our streets today.
【语篇解读】 一个孩子在圣诞节对已经去世的父亲撕心裂肺的呼唤让人情不能已,潸然泪下。孩子,虽然亲人与我们两世相隔,可是他们永远活在我们心中,恍如昨天。虽然世人难免一死,但是如果大家互相关怀,没有了暴力和谋杀,世界岂不更加美好?
