向前进

(鸳湖画派杨争庆画作)

大学毕业后的那个夏天,我住在家里,白天钓鱼,晚上和朋友在一起——通常都是四处去玩。一天下午,我那没上过大学的爷爷顺便来看我。

他很关心我是怎样花时间的,就问我将来有什么计划。我对他说,我还不想急于将自己绑定在一种职业上。

“嗯,”他说,“你最好是开始考虑这件事。一眨眼你就会到30岁了。”

“但我现在离20岁近过离30岁,”我抗议道。“我再过8年才30岁。”

“我知道,”他笑着说。“你何时会再次20岁呢?”

Moving Forward

The summer after college graduation, I was living at home, fishing in the daytime, spending nights with my friendsgenerally just hanging out. One afternoon my grandfather, who never went to college, stopped by.

Concerned with how I was spending my time, he asked about my future plans. I told him I was in no hurry to tie myself down to a career.

"Well," he replied, "you better start thinking about it. You'll be thirty before you know it."

"But I'm closer to twenty than to thirty," I protested. "I won't be thirty for eight more years."

"I see," he said, smiling. "And when will you be twenty again?"
