B If you suddenly found out you only had 6 months to live, would the things in front of you matter to you?Would the emails waiting for a response matter?Would the work you’re doing matter?Would a big car and nice house and high-paying job and cool computer and mobile device and nice shoes and clothes matter?I’m not saying they wouldn’t matter…but it’s important to ask yourself whether they would. For many of us, it’s the loved ones in our lives. If we don’t have loved ones, maybe it’s time we started figuring out why. Maybe we haven’t made time for others, for getting out and meeting others and helping others. Maybe we have shut ourselves in somehow. Or maybe we do have love

ones, but we don’t seem to have the time we want to spend with them. For many of us, doing work that matters would matter. That might mean helping others, or making a vital contribution to society, or creating something brilliant and inspiring, or expressing ourselves somehow. For many of us, experiencing life would matter—really being in the moment, finding passion in our lives, seeing the world and traveling, or just seeing the world that’s around us right now. I highly recommend that you spend at least a little time now, and regularly, figuring out what really matters. Make the time for what does matter today. Put it on your schedule, and don’t miss that appointment. Make those tough decisions—because choosing to live a life that is filled with the important stuff means making choices, and they’re not always easy choices. But it matters. Spend time with your significant others;show them how important they are. Take the time to stay with your child, to read with her, to play with her, to have good conversations with her, to take walks with her. Take time to be in nature, to appreciate the beauty of the world around us. The life you have left is a gift. Cherish it. Enjoy it now, to the fullest. Do what matters, now. 24.

No one knew each other; the passengers all sat there sleepily in the morning. The bus was cheerless and silent. One of the passengers was a small gray-haired man who took the bus to the center for senior citizens every morning. No one ever paid very much attention to him. One July morning he said good morning to the driver and smiled. The driver nodded guardedly(戒备地. The rest of us were silent. The next day, the old man boarded with a big smile and said in a loud voice: ―A very good morning to you all!‖ Some of us looked up, amazed, and murmured ―Good Morning‖ in reply.
The following weeks, our friend was dressed in a nice old suit and tie. His thin hair had been carefully combed. He said good morning to us every day and we gradually began to nod and talk to each other. One morning he even had a bunch of wild flowers in his hand. The driver turned around smiling and asked: ―Have you got yourself a girlfriend, Charlie?‖ We never got to know if his name really was ―Charlie‖, but he nodded shyly and said yes. The other passengers whistled and clapped at him. Charlie waved the flowers before he sat down on his seat. Every morning after that Charlie always brought flowers. Some passengers also brought flowers for him. The bus became a happy place. Then, one morning, as autumn was closing in, Charlie wasn’t waiting at his usual stop. When he wasn’t there the next day and the day after that, we started wondering if he was sick or—hopefully – on holiday somewhere. When we came nearer to the center for senior citizens, one of the passengers asked the driver to wait. We all held our breaths when he went to the door. The old gentle man was fine, but one of his close friends had died over the weekend. How
