孩子，当我渐渐老去的时候

　孩子，当我渐渐老去的时候
   这是一位父亲写给他孩子的一封信……
“孩子…
　　当你看到我日渐老去，身体也渐渐不行，请耐着性子试着理解我……
　　如果我吃东西的时候弄的脏兮兮，如果我不会穿衣服……
　　有耐心一点……
　　你记得我曾花了多长时间教会你这些事吗?……”
Dear son……
　　The day that you see me old and I am already not， have patience and try to understand me …
　　If I get dirty when eating… if I cannot dress… have patience．
　　Remember the hours I spent teaching it to you．
　　If， when I speak to you， I repeat the same things thousand and one times… do not interrupt me… listen to me
　　When you were small， I had to read to you thousand and one times the same story until you get to sleep…
　　When I do not want to have a shower， neither shame me nor scold me…
　　Remember when I had to chase you with thousand excuses I invented， in order that you wanted to bath…
　　When you see my ignorance on new technologies… give me the necessary time and not look at me you’re your mocking smile…
　　I taught you how to do so many things… to eat good， to dress well… to confront life…
　　When at some moment I lose the memory or the thread of our conversation… let me have the necessary time to remember… and if I cannot do it，do not become nervous… as the most important thing is not my conversation but surely to be with you and to have you listening to me…
