英语原文:
Sometimes I tend to think about what I don’t have: a house on the ocean, a big career I could use to impress people at my high school reunion. Then I hear his car in the driveway. I think we’ll grill tonight. Later we’ll watch some reruns of sitcoms from a long time ago that remind me of when we were young. He’ll doze off, and it’ll be time for the day to end. We’ll say good night to the cats. We’re all still here, a miracle. When I’m very old, I will wish for a day like this.
有时会想起生活中缺少的东西,一座海边的房子,一份能在高中同学会上炫耀的事业。接着,我就听到了他开车进了车道。我想我们今晚要烧烤了。那之后,我们将看看情景喜剧的回放,老掉牙的剧能让我回想起我们还年轻的那会儿。看着看着,他就要打瞌睡了,这就是这一天的结束。对我们的猫说晚安。我们还好好的在一起,这就是一个奇迹。当我很老了,这样平凡的一天,将是我魂牵梦萦的。
