6. Flowers 花朵

Where we lived in Australia, it seemed everyone had a rose garden. One afternoon while out on a walk I thought of the old saying “take time to stop and smell the roses” and I did just that. I made a point, that one afternoon, of smelling every rose I came across that was leaning out of the yards over onto the sidewalk. It’s quite amazing how different they all are. Even when the look remarkably similar the smell can be so different. It was quite an experience. It does slow you down but I was able to really see each flower.
住在澳大利亚的时候,感觉家家都有玫瑰园。在有一天下午出门散步时,我想到了那句老谚语:“停下来问问玫瑰的芳香(忙里偷闲)”,然后我真的就照做了。那个下午,我闻遍了每一朵从院子里探出头的玫瑰,它们其实都各有不同,真的很有趣。可能它们每一朵样子很像,但是香味却大有不同。这是一次很美好的经历,我看了每一朵花,它们让我慢下来。
