And since none of us know when our time may come, it's very important thatwe live by this principle every day so that when we do die (and we will), we're able to move on with a bit of peace, knowing that we've done all we can and all we need to do.

I'm pretty sure that when he got up that morning, he didn't know that he would be dead in a few hours. When the race began, I doubt thathe knew that he would be dead in half an hour.If he had known, what might he have done differently with his last few days, or his last few hours?（to be continued）


既然我们都不知道自己什么时候会离开人世，我们则有必要每天遵循这个原则。这样当我们真的死了（人必有一死），我们也能够安心地离开，因为我们有能力做和需要做的所有事情，都已经做了。

我确信他那天早上醒来的时候，他肯定不知道自己会在几个小时后死去。比赛开始时，我想他也不知道他自己会在半个小时后死去。如果他真的知道，在他生命的最后几天，或者在最后几个小时，他会做出什么样的与众不同的事情来呢？

If we had built the reservior，there wouldn’t been a terrible flood.（假如我们修了水坝，就不会发生可怕的洪灾了。）事实上，并没有修水坝
