爷爷告诉我：20岁应该知道的20件事
As college doors start to swish and swing open, slurping young people backin for fall classes, I feel compelled to put my hand up and say, "Wait, youforgot something."
大学校园已经慢慢敞开大门，迎接那些即将在秋季入学的年轻人们，我必须举起手说：“等等，你们忘了什么事。”
I have something I want to tell them before they head back up theuniversity's hill to walk new halls, meet new faces and make new decisions thatcould change their lives. What I wish I had known.
在他们抬头挺胸进入大学校园，认识新朋友，做出影响一生的决定之前，有些事我想要告诉他们。一些我希望知道的事。
Precious young person, before you leave, can you turn off your phone andlet me share something valuable with you? I know you think I am too old tounderstand you, but I promise, some days I feel closer to your age than I do myown. I haven't forgotten.
年轻人，在你们离开之前，能否关掉手机，让我与你们分享一些重要的事情?我知道你们认为我太老，不能理解你们，但我保证，年轻时候的事情我甚至记得比现在发生的事情还清楚。我从没忘记。
What I see in front of me is a life that is valuable and worth more thanyou can possibly know today. I hope to save you a lot of time, pain andregret.
在我面前展开的生活如此珍贵，你们难以想象。我希望帮你们节约时间，减少痛苦和悔恨。
