My heart was broken.
我的心碎了。
My grandpa Richard and grandma Nancy were everything to us. They had the biggest heart of gold, and they worried about us the most. They worried about everybody and always wanted to make sure that we were all okay.
我的祖父理查德和祖母南希是我们的一切。他们拥有最大的金子般的心,他们最担心我们。他们关心每个人,总是想确保我们都好。
They adored us and also did everything they could do to protect us. They were always with us. They were as close as our parents could be. Our grandparents were both literate1 and they helped us with all aspects of developing our skills, made us independent in thinking and provided their valuable time training us with good habits, built a bridge between neighbors and friends. They always gave us a choice and explained what outcomes might occur with that choice, and they taught us how to make important decisions in life. They spent quality time which was a priceless gift that will be treasured by us for life. The greatest gift I gave them was LOVE!Love of family, friends, other people, animals, nature and everything else on this Earth!They are very important to all of us. And if there were problems, they solved them. They really molded2 us, by being perfect grandparents.
他们爱我们,也盡一切努力保护我们。他们总是和我们在一起,像我们的父母那样亲近我们。我们的祖父母都很有文化,培养我们方方面面的技能,让我们独立思考,用他们宝贵的时间让我们养成良好习惯,在邻居和朋友之间架起了一座桥梁。他们常会给我们一个选择,然后解释这个选择会产生什么结果,还教我们如何在生活中做出重要的决定。他们花费的宝贵时间是我们一生所珍视的无价之宝。我送给他们最好的礼物是爱!对家人、朋友、其他人、动物、大自然以及世界上的一切事物的爱!他们对我们大家都很重要。如果有问题,他们会解决。他们是完美的祖父母,真正地塑造了我们。
As a child I always thought, they were immortal3 and will be with us even reaching the age of 200. Now I’ve realized that life is finite4 and that you should never waste your time. That’s why I am always busy right now. They always gave us a hug and kiss whenever we meet. I never failed to return their love again. I had a very good childhood. My brother is three-and-a-half years older than me. My parents are the sweetest and most caring people in the world but, nevertheless, when I was younger I tended to push at my grandparents boundaries.
作为一个孩子,我一直认为他们是不朽的,甚至到两百岁都会与我们在一起。现在我意识到生命是有限的,不应该浪费时间。这就是我现在总是很忙的原因。每次我们见面,他们总是给我们一个拥抱和亲吻。我从不拒绝回应他们的爱。我有一个美好的童年。我哥哥比我大三岁半。我的父母是世界上最可爱、最体贴的人,然而在我小时候,我总想挑战祖父母的底线。
Life is fun but one day it showed us it also has some serious moments with profound effect when our grandpa was unwell. He was bedridden5. After a few days he passed away and this was the first death in the family. It is so hard to imagine even today our family is deeply shaken by the death of our beloved grandfather. Two hearts were beating as one and became more spiritually minded, and the bond between the couple was so strong that when one soul departed, the other followed. In my mind, I still see them sitting together at the table doing crossword puzzles, telling stories and their experiences day after day.
生活是有趣的,但有一天当我们的祖父不舒服的时候,生活向我们展示了某些影响深远的严肃时刻。祖父卧床不起。几天后,他去世了,这是这个家中的第一次死别。即使到今天,我们的家人也很难想象深爱的祖父之死会对我们的家庭产生如此深刻的影响。两颗心合二为一地跳动着,这对夫妇之间的精神联系变得更加紧密,当一个灵魂离去时,另一个也跟随而去。在我的脑海里,仍然看到他们一天又一天地坐在桌边一起做填字游戏,讲故事和他们的经历。
My family and I are still grieving6...Some moments are worse than others...Sometimes I just wish my grandfather and grandmother would come back to me!
我和我的家人还在悲伤中……有些时候比其他时候更糟……有时我就希望我的祖父和祖母能回到我身边!
