原文英文
Today we have taller buildings and wider highways, yet shorter tempers and narrower perspectives.
We spend more but enjoy less; we have bigger houses but smaller families.
We make more compromises but have less time; we have more knowledge but less judgment.
We have more medicines but not necessarily better health; more wealth but fewer values.
We talk too much, love too little, and hate too often.
We have reached the Moon and returned, yet it is difficult for us to step outside and greet our neighbors.
We have conquered outer space, but not our inner world.
We have higher incomes but lower morals.
These are times with more freedom but less happiness.
We have more food but less nutrition.
These are times when many homes require two incomes to survive, yet divorces continue to rise.
These are times of finer houses but more broken homes.
Therefore, I suggest that from today onward, we stop saving anything for special occasions, because every day is a special occasion.
Seek knowledge, read more, sit on your porch and enjoy the view instead of only focusing on needs.
Spend more time with family and friends, eat your favorite foods, and visit the places you love.
Life is a chain of enjoyable moments, not just survival.
Use your best glassware, wear your favorite perfume, and do not wait for “someday.”
Remove phrases like “one of these days” or “someday” from your vocabulary.
Write that letter you have been postponing.
Tell your family and friends how much you love them.
Do not delay anything that brings laughter and joy into your life.
Every day, every hour, and every minute is special.
You never know if it may be your last.
原文中文
如今，我们拥有更高的建筑和更宽阔的公路，却有着更短的耐心与更狭隘的视野。
我们花得更多，却享受得更少；拥有更大的房子，却更小的家庭。
我们做出更多妥协，却拥有更少的时间；掌握更多知识，却缺乏更好的判断力。
我们拥有更多药物，却不一定更健康；拥有更多财富，却失去了更多价值观。
我们说得很多，爱得很少，恨却太多。
我们登上过月球又返回地球，却连走出家门与邻居打招呼都觉得麻烦。
我们征服了外太空，却未能探索自己的内心世界。
我们收入更高，道德却在下降。
这是一个更自由却更少快乐的时代。
我们拥有更多食物，却更少营养。
这是一个许多家庭需要双份收入才能维持生活的时代，但离婚率却在上升。
这是一个房子更精致，却家庭更破碎的时代。
因此，我建议从今天开始，不要再为特殊场合保留任何美好事物，因为每一天都是特别的日子。
去学习知识，去阅读，坐在门廊上欣赏风景，而不是只关注物质需求。
多花时间陪伴家人和朋友，吃你喜欢的食物，去你热爱的地方。
生活是一连串值得享受的瞬间，而不仅仅是生存。
用你最好的杯子，使用你珍藏的香水，不要等到“某一天”。
从你的语言中删除“改天”“总有一天”这样的词语。
去写那封你一直想写却拖延的信。
告诉家人和朋友你有多爱他们。
不要延迟任何能为生活带来笑声与快乐的事情。
每一天、每一小时、每一分钟都是特别的时刻。
你永远不知道，这是否会是最后一天。
