我的老友记：从老朋友身上学到的

With old friends there is often great laughter about the shared history of your pasts. And in your youth, pasts are often filled with many playful instants but also careless choices. There is a solemn recollection of the difficult periods that you have been through. There is an understanding of how you came to be who you came to be.
和老朋友回忆你们过去的往事总能逗起欢声笑语。年轻时有着太多有趣的瞬间，也少不了莽撞的选择。那些你们共同经历的艰难时期，充满了凝重嘘唏的记忆。你清楚自己是怎样一步一步走到现在的。

With old friends, you realize true friendships are difficult to create, to cultivate, and to hold onto. And the profound gratitude that you have for having a friend long enough to call them an “old friend,” feels wonderful.
因为老朋友，你懂得真正的友情是多么难能可贵、多么不易呵护维持。能有这样弥久珍贵的“老朋友”，你心存感激、备感美好。

Old friends hold a mirror in front of us and allow us to see how far we’ve come, and how far we still have to go to be the person we can be. Old friends show us a reflection of all the parts that we still need to change, and some of the parts we’ll hopefully never change. Old friends remind us that the past was both good and bad, that the future is something to look forward to, while keeping us grounded in the present. And no matter the passage of time, when we’re with our old friends, we have a feeling of home – a place where we can be stupid with people who love us.
老朋友犹如镜子，提醒我们走过的路以及为了实现目标而要征服的路程；老朋友指正我们所有亟待改变的地方，哪怕有些我们或许永远都改变不了；老朋友使我们明白过去有苦有乐，未来值得期盼，而现在才最该脚踏实地去珍惜。不论时光如何流逝，只要老朋友在身边，我们都会有家的感觉——在那里，我们可以和至亲至爱的人一起发傻一起欢乐。
