【當我老了】文章擇選自墨西哥《數字家庭》十一月號。
當我老了，不再是原來的我。
請理解我，對我有一點耐心。
當我把菜湯灑到自己的衣服上時，當我忘記怎樣繫鞋帶時，
請想一想當初我是如何手把手地教你。
當我一遍又一遍地重複你早已聽膩的話語，
請耐心地聽我說，不要打斷我。
你小的時候，我不得不重複那個講過千百遍的故事，直到你進入夢鄉。 當我需要你幫我洗澡時，
請不要責備我。
還記得小時候我千方百計哄你洗澡的情形嗎？
當我對新科技和新事物不知所措時，
請不要嘲笑我。
想一想當初我怎樣耐心地回答你的每一個「為什麼」。 當我由於雙腿疲勞而無法行走時，
請伸出你年輕有力的手攙扶我。
就像你小時候學習走路時，我扶你那樣。
當我忽然忘記我們談話的主題，
請給我一些時間讓我回想。
其實對我來說，談論什麼並不重要，只要你能在一旁聽我說，我就很滿足。
當你看著老去的我，請不要悲傷。
理解我，支持我，就像你剛才開始學習如何生活時我對你那樣。
當初我引導你走上人生路，如今請陪伴我走完最後的路。
給我你的愛和耐心，我會抱以感激的微笑，這微笑中凝結著我對你無限的愛。
When I Turn Old 當我老了
◆When I turn old, I am not the original me: Please understand me and have patience with me.
◆When I drip gravy all over my clothes, when I forget to tie my shoelaces: Please remember how I taught you what not to do, and how to do many things by hand.
◆When I repeatedly tell you things that youre tired of hearing: please be patient and listen to me. Please dont interrupt me. When you were young, I told you the same story over and over again until you were sound asleep.
◆When I need you to help me bathe: Please dont scold me. Do you still remember how when you were small I had to coax you to have a bath?
◆When I dont understand new technology: Please dont laugh at me or mock me. Please think how I used to be so patient with you to answer your every why.
◆When my two legs are tired and I cannot walk anymore: Please stretch out your powerful hands to lend me a hand, just like when you were a baby learning to walk I held both your hands.
◆When I suddenly forget what subject we are discussing: Please give me a little time to recollect. Actually, it does not matter what we are talk about; as long as you are by my side, I am so contented and happy already.
◆When you see the old me, please dont be sad: Please understand me and support me, just like how I was with you when you were young and were just learning to face life. At the beginning, I guided you to the path of life. Now I ask you to keep me company to finish this last leg of my life. Give me your love and patience, I will give you a grateful smile, and crystallized in this smile is my endless love for you.
