Chapter6.
Not allow precious moments of my life to slip through my fingers
During one late and cold stormy night, it was raining cats and dogs.And two monkeys were getting drenched from head to toe.The elder of the two monkeys found a big leaf for them to hide under.The young monkey said through his chattering teeth, “I’m so cold and I’m going to freeze to death.” So they decided to build a nice warm house,.The next morning, when the rains had stopped, they both decided to postpone building the house until the next day.Because of the two monkeys procrastination, the house was never built.
The monkeys’ lazine helped me realize my own bad habits and saying “ I can do it tomorrow” would only allow precious monuments of my life to slip through my fingers.Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is the present, a gift to live life to the fullest with no regrets.
参考译文：
不要让时光从你的指尖划过
在一个寒冷的傍晚，下着瓢泼大雨。有两只猴子从头湿到了脚。老猴子找到了一片大树叶避雨。小猴子打着寒战说：“真是太冷了。”他们终于决定修建一座温暖的房子过冬。第二天早晨雨停了，他们把计划拖到了后天。日子就这样一天一天地过去了。由于两只猴子的拖拉，他们的房子一直没能建成。
这两只懒惰猴子的故事，使我认清了自己的一个坏习惯。“我明天再去做“只能使宝贵的时光从指尖划过。昨天已是过去，明天还是未知。只有把握住今天，才能生活得充实而有意义。
