一些我想让孩子记住的事
我童年中最美好的记忆发生在大概5-7岁的时候。直至今天,那些记忆的画面仍栩栩如生:回家的那条路;我和邻居小孩玩,一直玩到街灯亮起;有辆轮子特别漂亮的自行车;还有我一边追着姐姐跑,一边拿着扑克牌洗牌,纸牌在我手里哗哗作响。
As I stumble through the first handful of years of my kid’s childhood, I’m often reminded of my own. My best childhood memories were when I was quite young, probably between the ages of 5 and 7 years old. My memories of that time are filled with track homes, neighborhood children playing until the streetlights came on, and banana-seat bicycles with decorated spokes and playing cards making a shuffling sound as I chased my older sister down the sidewalk.
They’re filled with road trips to the Grand Canyon, the smell of my dad when he came home from work, and my mom’s home cooking as she hosted dinner parties for friends. That was a truly happy time in my life, and although I experienced many happy moments thereafter, they are harder to remember because I can also remember the hard times so well.
回首童年往事,那些记住的和忘却的都令我着迷。有些记忆很模糊,是当时受伤了么?也许不是,因为忘记不需要理由。每个人都有自己的童年经历,所以很多父母在养育孩子时,总是试图避免让孩子重复自己遭受的苦难或犯过的错误,然而事实是这不可能。
就我个人而言,我希望孩子能记住所有,无论得失成败。我希望他有生动鲜活的回忆:记得安心的感受,爱的温度,家的味道,满足和失意……记得那些他们忘不掉,也不想忘掉的,那些教会他们成长的珍贵的记忆。
如果有一天我老了,孩子啊,希望你能记得这些。
When I look back on my own childhood, I’m fascinated by what I remember and what I don’t. Are periods of my childhood hazy because they were traumatic? Maybe not; perhaps there’s no rhyme or reason to it at all. We’ve all gone through unique circumstances that lead us to try things differently for our own children, but can we truly avoid any and all traumatic circumstances? Of course not, but most of us never stop trying.
