Father & son 父與子
Dear son: 親愛的兒子
The day that you see me old and already not, have patience and try to understand me.
If I get dirty when eating….if I can not dress…have patience,
Remember the hours I spent teaching it to you.
If, when I speak to you, I repeat the same thing thousand and
one times…do not interrupt me…listen to me.
When you were small, I had to read to you thousand and
one times the same story until you get to sleep.
When I do not want to have a shower, neither shame me nor
scold me…
Remember when I had to chase you with thousand excuses I invented, in order that you want to bath…
When you see my ignorance on new technologies…give me the necessary time and not look at me your mocking smile…
I taught you how to do many things…to eat good, to dress well
…to confront life…
When at some moment I loss the memory or the thread of our conversation…let me have the necessary time to remember…and if I cannot do it, do not become nervous…as the most important thing is not my conversation but surely to be with you and to have you
listening to me...
If everI do not want to eat, do not force me. I know well when
I need to and when not.
When my tired legs do not allow me walk…give me your hand
…the same way I did when you gave your first steps.
And when some day I say to you that I do not want to live any more…that I want to die…do not get angry …some day you will understand…
Try to understand that my age is not lived but survived.
Some day you will discover that, despite my mistakes, I always
Wanted the lost thing for you and that I tried to prepare the way
for you.
You must not feel sad, angry or impotent for seeing me near you.
You must be next to me, try to understand me and be help me as I did It when you started living, Help me to walk…help me to end my way with love and patience.
I will pay you by a smile and by the immense love I have had always for you.
I love you son…
your father
哪天你看到我日漸老去，已經沒有耐心，並試著了解我。
如果我吃的髒兮兮......如果我不會穿衣服......有耐心，
記住我花時間教給你
如果,當我一再重覆述說同樣的事情…不要打斷我,聽我說…..
你小時候,我必須一遍又一遍的讀著同樣的故事,直到你靜靜睡著……..
當我不想洗澡,不要羞辱我也不要責罵我……
還記得，當我有多少理由來追你，你想要洗澡為了...
當你看到我對不了解技術，能給我一點時間，不要掛著嘲弄的微笑看著我......
我教你如何做很多事情...吃的好，穿得好
面對生活......
在某些時刻，我失去了記憶，我們的談話,讓我有必要時時刻刻記住,如果我不能做到這一點，請不要緊張,但肯定和你在一起，有你聽我說...
我發燒，我不想吃，不要勉強我。我清楚地知道，當我需要和什麼時候不需要什麼
當我疲憊的雙腿不讓我走......給我你的手 ......我做了同樣的方式，當你給你的第一個步驟。當有一天我對你說，我不想再活下去......我想死......不要生氣....總有一天你會明白...
試著了解我已是風燭殘年,來日可數.
有一天你會發現,即使我有許多過錯,我總是盡我所能要給你失去的…
當我靠近你時不要覺得感傷,生氣或無奈.
當我靠近你時不要覺得感傷,生氣或無奈.
你要緊挨著我,如同我當初幫著你展開人生一樣的了解我,幫我….
扶我一把,用愛跟耐心幫我走完人生…
我將用微笑和我始終不變無邊無際的愛來回報你.
我愛你兒子
你的爸爸
