📖 英文原文
Every evening, my mother sits by the window, holding a small box. Inside are old photos and letters from her youth. She often says, 'The more I remember, the more I understand.' I used to think that memories were just past events, but now I see they shape who we are. Sometimes, the past can be heavy, like a stone in our hearts. But it also brings warmth, like the light of a familiar room. My mother may not speak much about the past, but her silence speaks louder than words. I know that the best way to honor her is to listen carefully, even when she doesn't say much. The more we learn from the past, the better we can face the future.
📝 中文翻译
每天晚上，我的母亲坐在窗边，手里拿着一个小小的盒子。里面装着她年轻时的老照片和信件。她经常说：“我回忆得越多，我就越明白。” 我以前认为记忆只是过去的事件，但现在我意识到它们塑造了我们是谁。有时候，过去可能会很沉重，就像心里的一块石头。但同时它也带来温暖，就像熟悉房间里的灯光。我的母亲可能很少谈论过去，但她的沉默比言语更有分量。我知道，最好的方式是认真倾听，即使她不说太多。我们从过去学到的越多，就越能面对未来。
