The best time of life 生命中最棒的时光.docVIP

The best time of life 生命中最棒的时光 It was June 15，and in two days I would be turning thirty. I was insecure about entering a new decade of my life and feared that my best years were now behind me. My daily routine included going to the gym for a workout before going to work. Every morning I would see my friend Nicholas at the gym. He was seventy-nine years old and in terrific shape. As I greeted Nicholas on this particular day，he noticed I wasnlsquo;t full of my usual vitality and asked if there was anything wrong. I told him I was feeling anxious about turning thirty. I wondered how I would look back on my life once I reached Nicholasrsquo;s age，so I asked him，What was the best time of your life? Without hesitation，Nicholas replied，Well，Joe，this is my philosophical answer to your philosophical question. When I was a child in Austria and everything was taken care of for me and I was nurtured by my parents，that was the best time of my life. When I was going to school and learning the things I know today，that was the best time of my life. When I got my first job and had responsibilities and got paid for my efforts，that was the best time of my life. When I met my wife and fell in love，that was the best time of my life. The Second World War came，and my wife and I had to flee Austria to save our lives. When we were together and safe on a ship bound for North America，that was the best time of my life. When we came to Canada and started a family，that was the best time of my life. When I was a young father，watching my children grow up，that was the best time of my life. And now，Joe，I am seventy-nine years old. I have my health，I feel good and I am in love with my wife just as I was when we first met. This is the best time of my life. 本文链接：/xuexi/yingyu/201611/2337.html 本站内容如无特别说明，均来自网络和网友投稿！如侵犯了您的权利，请联系我们删除。 window._bd_share_config={“common”:{“bdSnsKey”:{},”bdText”:”“,”bdMini”:”2”,”bdMiniList”:[“mshare”,”tieba”,”douban”,”tqf”,”kaixin001”,”thx”,
