[Book] 1. 만일 내가 인생을 다시산다면. . .

안녕하구마?

많은사람들이 그렇듯이 새해결심에 독서하기는. . 꼭 .
. . . . 들어가있는 신년계획인것같다

ㅎ ㅎ

나도 역시나 2023년도 신년계획 중 하나
책읽기!!!!! ㅎ ㅎ

욕심부리지말고 한달에 한권이라도 읽자 구마야

나의 2023년 첫책은
만일 내가 인생을 다시 산다면

이달의 책

만일 내가 인생을 다시 산다면
이번에는 용감히 더 많은 실수를 저지르리라.
느긋하고 유연하게 살리라.
그리고 더 바보처럼 살리라.
매사를 심각하게 생각하지 않을 것이며
더 많은 기회를 붙잡으리라.
더 많은 산을 오르고, 더 많은 강을 헤엄치리라.
아이스크림은 더 많이 그리고 콩은 더 조금 먹으리라.
어쩌면 실제로 더 많은 문제가 있을 수도 있겠지만
일어나지도 않을 걱정거리를 상상하지는 않으러라.

 

-나딘 스테어의 시 만일 내가 인생을 다시 산다면' 중에서

If I Had My Life to Live Over

 

I'd dare to make more mistakes next time.
I'd relax. I would limber up.
I would be sillier than I have been this trip.
I would take fewer things seriously.
I would take more chances.
I would take more trips.
I would climb more mountains and swim more rivers.
I would eat more ice cream and less beans.

I would perhaps have more actual troubles but I'd have fewer imaginary ones.

You see, I'm one of those people who live sensibly and sanely hour after hour, day after day.

Oh, I've had my moments and if I had it to do over again, I'd have more of them.

In fact, I'd try to have nothing else. Just moments.

One after another, instead of living so many years ahead of each day.

I've been one of those people who never go anywhere without a thermometer, a hot water bottle, a raincoat and a parachute.

If I had my life to live over, I would start barefoot earlier in the spring and stay that way later in the fall.

If I had it to do again, I would travel lighter next time.
I would go to more dances.
I would ride more merry-go-rounds.
I would pick more daisies.
