中*美好的时光
    那是6月15日，两天后我就要30岁了。我为即将步人生命的新纪元而忧虑二
不已，害怕生命中的幸福岁月就此离我远去。   
    上班前去健身房锻炼，这是我每日必做之事。每天早晨，我都会在健身房见二
到我的朋友尼古拉斯。他79岁了，可身体看上去棒极了。就在这特别的一天，。
当我向尼古拉斯打招呼的时候，他注意到我不像往日般充满活力，于是便问我怎
么了。我告诉他，我正为自己即将步入30岁而焦虑不安。我想知道，一旦到了
尼古拉斯的年纪，我将如何追忆我的人生，所以我问他：“你生命中*好的时光
是在什么时候?”
    尼古拉斯毫不犹豫地回答道，“噢，乔，对于这个哲理性的问题，我给你我
富有哲理的回答。”
    “我在奥地利生活的时候，我还是个孩子，所有的一切都有人为我打理，父
母养育着我，那是我生命中*好的时光。”
    “我每天去上学，学习到今天我所知的一切，那是我生命中*好的时光。”
    “我找到了自己的**份工作，有了责任感，并且凭借自己的努力赚取了工
资，那是我生命中*好的时光。”
    “我遇到了我的妻子，并和她坠入爱河，那是我生命中*好的时光。”
    “第二次世界大战爆发，妻子和我为了保命逃离奥地利。当我们一道平安乘
船前往北美的时候，那是我生命中*好的时光。”
    “我俩来到加拿大，并在此组建了家庭，那是我生命中*好的时光。”
    “当我还是个年轻的父亲，看着自己的孩子长大，那是我生命中*好的
时光。”
    “现在，乔，我已经79岁了，而我还拥有健康，我挺开心，我和妻子还是深
深地爱着彼此，就像我们**次见面时一样，这是我生命中*好的时光。”
