It will happen to all of us eventually the moment will come when we ask ourselves. Where did the time go? How did the children I once cradled grow up so very quickly? How did the life I dreamt of turn into a career I never expected? And how did that woman I saw each day in the mirror become someone I don’t even recognize?

It goes by so quickly. In a flash, the life wo knew is gone forever. And we’re left to ask ourselves. How could he have left me? When did my beauty start to fade? Why has my friend changed? Was I the best mother I could have been?

Of course, there are some people who understand how quickly time passes. That’s why they’re so determined¹ to get what they want before it’s too late.

最终人们都会有扪心自问的时刻.时间都流逝到哪儿去了?曾经摇篮中的孩子怎么成长得如此之快?一直所梦想的生活却变为从未期望过的事业?我每天在镜子中看到的那个女子怎么变得连我都分辨不出了?

时光的脚步如此匆匆.转眼间我们熟悉的生活便永远消失.我们只能扪心自问.他怎么会离开了我呢?我美丽的容颜是几时开始衰退的?我的朋友怎么会改变的呢?我是否有尽力去做一个最好的母亲了呢?

当然,有些人明白时光的流逝是多么迅速.所以他们才如此坚定的想在一切太迟前得到自己所想要的.

If there is one thing everyone in suburbia can appreciate. It’s a good neighbor. You know, the kind that helps with the last bag of groceries, or brings over misplaced mail, or offers to mow² your lawn.

Yes, everyone appreciates a good neighbor. The kind that helps with the last bag of groceries, but doesn’t ask, “Why is your son so moody³?” The type that delivers misplaced mail, but doesn’t point your wife seems discontented. The sort that offers to mow your lawn, but doesn’t mention your husband seems cold. But if you’re not sure the man next door is as nice as he would have you believe. Do everything you can to get to know him better.

如果有一样东西是郊区居民欣赏的,那就是有个好邻居.那种会帮你搬最后一袋杂货,或将送错的信件物归原主,亦或主动帮你修剪草坪的人.

没错,每个人都希望能有个好邻居.你知道,会帮你搬回东西却不问你“儿子的脾气怎么不太好?”.会帮你送回错的信却不会指出你的妻子似乎不太高兴,会主动帮你锄草却不会提及你的丈夫似乎很冷漠.但是如果你不确定隔壁住着的人是否如同你认为的那样善良,你就得不择一切手段去弄清楚他的底细.

Any child will tell you that where you find a playground you will also find bullies⁴. Young tyrants⁵ who bring pain, intimidation⁶, and violence. What can children do in the face of such torment⁷? Well, there is one obvious option. But not every child is eager to go running home to mother.

Bullies. Any adult will tell you the playground is not the only place to find them. Everywhere you look, you can find people unconcerned or unaware⁸ of the pain they inflict⁹. It might be a neighbor preying¹⁰ on the suspicions of her friend. Or a daughter punishing the choices of her mother. Or a housewife seeking justice from the man who sold her a car.

Yes, there are bullies everywhere. And the worst are he ones who take advantage of you without you ever knowing what they’ve done.

任何一个孩子都会告诉你,哪里有游乐场哪里就有大坏蛋.欺负人的年幼暴君,恐吓,还有暴力.面对这些痛苦时孩子们能做些什么?好吧,有一个选择很明显,但不是所有孩子都急着跑回家找妈妈的.

持强欺弱.任何成年人都会告诉你游乐场并不是唯一存在欺辱的地方.只要你会观察,你可以发现人们不注意或没意识的给他人造成痛苦.这可能是一个邻居对她朋友的怀疑.或者是一个女儿对她母亲所做选择的惩罚.或者一个家庭主妇从卖给她车的男人那里争取公平.

是的,持强欺弱无处不在.而最糟糕的是那些人从你身上获取利益而你却对他们的所作所为一无所知.
