当你老了:会让你会心微笑的7件事

4. Relationships that weathered the storms with you.
4. 那些和你共度难关的人

No relationship is all sunshine, but two people can share one umbrella and survive the storm together.
没有一帆风顺的友谊，但两个人可以相互帮助，共度难关。

In fact, the best relationships are not always the best because they have been consistently the happiest; sometimes they are that way because they have survived and strengthened through unhappy times.
事实上，再好的朋友也会有矛盾，因为他们有过最幸福的时光；有时候他们争执，是因为他们挺过了艰难的时刻，并因此变得更加坚强。

5. Feeling beautiful on the inside.
5. 内心的美好感觉

As you get older, what you look like on the outside becomes less and less of an issue, and who you are on the inside becomes the primary point of interest. You eventually realize that beauty has almost nothing to do with looks; it’s who you are as a person, how you make others feel about themselves, and most importantly, how you feel about yourself.
随着年龄的增长，你会渐渐觉得外表不再那么重要，重要的是你的内在。你最终会意识到美丽与外表无关；作为一个人，你是谁，你让别人感觉如何才是重要的，而最重要的是你自己的感觉。

6. Knowing that you did your best.
6. 知道自己已经尽力了

Don’t be afraid of death; be afraid of a life unlived. You don’t have to live forever; you just have to live right now while you have a chance. Keep in mind that life doesn’t always give you second chances, so when an opportunity arises, take it.
不要惧怕死亡，行尸走肉的一生才是最可怕的。你并不需要长生不老；你最需要的是活在当下。记住，人生没有彩排，所以当机遇降临时，一定要抓住它。

And never give up on a dream just because of the time that’s required to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway. Do what you need to do so that, at the very least, you can look back on your life someday and say, “I gave it my best shot.”
永远也不要因为梦想需要太久才能实现而放弃。时间总会消逝。做你需要做的一切，这样最起码，当你有一天回首往事时，你可以问心无愧：“我已经尽力了。”

7. The peace in your heart.
7. 内心的平静

Life is short. So focus on what matters to YOU and let go of what does not.
生命是短暂的。所以要把精力集中在那些对你来说重要的东西上面。

Remember, it is the strength of your conviction that determines your level of success, not the number of people who agree with every little thing you do. In the end, you will know that you’ve made the right decisions and followed the proper path when there is peace in your heart.
记住，决定你成功程度的是信念的力量，而不是有多少人赞成你做的那些微不足道的小事。你最终会明白，内心的平静会指引你做出正确的决定，并选择适当的人生之路。
