今天讓我 type out 他人生中另外兩位
重要女人的事情

His mom -

My mom’s attitude made it hard not to like her. She was always
upbeat, no matter how terrible things were, and she made light of
things that most people would have found unbearable. For instance,
she biked to work, no matter how hard the day had been, or that she
had to ride through rain or heat, she made it seem as if she were the
lucky one and that her life couldn’t get any better.

”Hey guys! It’s great to see you! I can’t tell you how much I missed
you today!”

Then, she’d visit with each of us, asking about our days. And one by
one, Micah, Dana, and I would fill her in as she began cooking dinner.

She was also a giggler. My mom could laugh at anything, which
naturally drew people to her (like you). She wasn’t Pollyanna, but
she seems to realize that life had both ups and downs, and since it
wasn’t worth the energy to get upset about the downs, since not only
were they inevitable, but they’d pass as well.”

不錯吧

不過我認為他形容第一次邂逅 Cathy (他老婆) 更妙:

Cathy - She was attractive, but when she came up to me, my eyes
were glued to her eyes like I had noticed earlier. Up close, she had
the most beautiful eyes I’d every seen (same here), so unusual in color
they almost looked unreal (like yours). It was all I could do not to stare.

”Hi,” I finally said. ”I’m Nick.”
She smiled. ”Hey Nick. I’m Cathy.”

I would love to tell you that the initial attraction was mutual, but I’d be
lying if I did....We ended up talking for hours. When her friends mentioned
that they were going to a nearby nightclub, I convinced mine to go too.
After dancing with her for an hour, I leanned in and said,

”You know, you and I are going to get married one day.”

She just laughed in disbelief and said, ”I think you need another beer.”


wow, what love story
what love at first sight?

不同的是
you have even more beautiful eyes
and you truly attracted me like a magnet.

那一雙明亮的眼睛
和對未來的承諾
我依然保存在心中
