雙語美文：告別的終將告別，但不會忘記
I lost my husband just over 2 years ago.
兩年前，我失去了我的丈夫。
He was older than me but gave me security and love for my two young children, after I had been through a horrendous marriage and divorce.
他比我大很多，但他爲我的兩個孩子付出了許多關愛，保護他們。我曾經歷過一場可怕的婚姻，然後離婚。是他重新溫暖了我的心。
We bought a thatched cottage, something we discovered we both had dreamt of.
我們買下了一件茅草小屋，我們都知道，那是我們都曾經夢想擁有的東西。
The name of the cottage was Christopher Robin.
我們將小屋命名爲克里斯托夫 · 羅賓。
We lived there for 25 years and the evening after my husband's funeral I was alone in the lounge with French doors open to the garden.
我們在那裏住了25年，丈夫的葬禮結束的那天晚上，我一個人坐在休息室裏發呆，雙層玻璃門開着，門外的花園一片黯然。
There was a scratching sound and I looked towards the doors and a robin was bobbing around, then flew into the lounge, perched upon the TV in front of me, looked at me.
我突然聽到一陣刮擦聲。扭頭一看，一隻知更鳥正在門上撲騰，接着它徑直飛入休息室，棲在我面前的電視上，直勾勾的看着我。
I was worried about him and moved and he then flew into the dining room and then upstairs into our bedroom.
我看着它，感到有點不安，就起身走開了。它一下子飛進了餐廳，又沿着樓梯向上飛，飛進了我們的臥室。
I quickly opened the window onto our lovely garden and he flew out.
我跟着跑進臥室，迅速打開窗戶，窗戶正對着小花園。它飛了出去。
He seemed to know and feel comfortable in the cottage.
它似乎對這件小屋格外熟悉，好像在自己家一樣自在。
I knew then it was my late husband saying goodbye and that he was at peace.
突然，我明白了。冥冥中，這是我的丈夫在向我道別。我知道，他已經獲得了安寧。
