Let me quickly summaries

I was driving yesterday late at night and suddenly one old lady walking down the road fainted and 3–4 of us stopped our vehicles to help her out.

None of us knew each other, none of us knew her. But all of us wanted to help her out someway. Since it was quite late, no auto or cabs were ready to take her to the hospital. The old lady was dizzy, she couldn’t recall where she wanted to go or where she was coming from.

We were all trying something or the other to help her reach home, but nothing helped because she couldn’t recall anything. All she knew was couple of names and a street name which was quite vague.

We gave her water, basic first aid, called the ambulance and were trying to calm her down.

讓我快速總結一下

昨天深夜，我開車時，一位老太太突然暈倒在路上，我們中的3-4人停下了車，幫助她脱困。

我們都不認識，也不認識她。但我們都想以某種方式幫助她。由於已經很晚了，沒有汽車或出租車準備好送她去醫院。這位老太太頭昏眼花，她記不起自己想去哪裏，也記不起從哪裏來。

我們都在想辦法幫助她回家，但因為她什麼都想不起來了,沒有任何幫助。她只知道幾個名字和一個很模糊的街道名。

我們給了她水，進行基本的急救，叫了救護車，試圖讓她平靜下來。

Suddenly this boy appeared with cops, saying i saw this old lady couple of hours back. I tried to her place, but nothing helped. Then I asked her to sit in the bus stop and went to get the cops to help her out.

Now it was 5 of us and a cop, desparately trying to help the old lady. Within few minutes we heard the ambulance coming, got her on the ambulance. She was very nervous and scared. All of us tried to pacify her as a son, grandson and etc.

Once she get off and i started towards mah home- I realised humanity still exists and it just takes a second to realise that. Five random people, coming together for one lady.

We had nothing to differentiate us- caste, race, religion, language, nothing. Just humans coming up for each other.

This is the society we live in or atleast we wanna live in with Peace and humanity ??

突然，一個男孩和警察一起出現，説我幾小時前見過這位老太太。我試着去她的地方，但沒有任何幫助。然後我讓她坐在公共汽車站，再去叫警察來幫她。

現在是我們5個人和一個警察，不顧一切地試圖幫助這位老太太。幾分鐘後，我們聽到救護車來了，把她送上了救護車。她非常緊張和害怕。我們所有人都試圖作為她兒子、孫子樣來安撫她。

當她下車後，我開始走向我的家——我意識到人性依然存在，只需要一秒鐘的時間就能意識到這一點。隨機五個人，因為一位女士聚在一起。

我們沒有什麼可以把我們區分開——種姓、種族、宗教、語言，什麼都沒有，只是人類互相接近。

這就是我們所生活的社會，或者至少我們想要生活在和平和人性的社會中。

Was scrolling down my quora feed when i read some exceptionally brilliant and powerful quotes and sayings. Here are some of those :

Greed is good.

He who laughs last, laughs best.

If you are good at something, never do it for free.

If you kick me when i’m down, wish that i don’t get up.

If everything is coming your way, then you are in the wrong lane.

The only hindrance between you and your goal is the same bullshit thing you keep telling yourself that you can’t do it.

There is no nobility in poverty.

Death of one is a murder but death of millions is a statistics.

Don’t stop when you’re tired. Stop when you are done.

You are allowed to scream, you are allowed to cry, but don’t give up.

If not us, who? If not now, when?

Stop wishing. Start doing.

當我讀到一些非常精彩有力的語錄和名言時，我正在瀏覽我的美版知乎提要。以下是其中一些：

貪婪是好事。

笑到最後的人笑得最好。

如果你擅長某件事，千萬不要免費去做。

如果我跌倒時你踢我，那麼希望我起不來。

如果一切都朝你的方向發展，那麼你就走錯道了。

你和你的目標之間唯一的障礙就是你不斷告訴自己你做不到。

貧窮沒有高貴可言。

一個人的死亡是謀殺，但數百萬人的死亡是統計數字。

累了不要停下來，完成後再停下來。

允許你尖叫，允許你哭泣，但不要放棄。

如果不是我們，還有誰?如果不是現在，那是什麼時候

停止許願，開始做吧。

Past :

It was always my childhood bucket list thing to solve Rubik’s 3*3 cube. Whenever I used to visit my grandfather during my summer holidays, he always bought me a cube only because I wanted to learn very badly how to solve it completely. (I used to solve only one color back then). He used to get all sizes of cubes not even bothering about the prices. I stacked up all the cubes which he brought for me. And I have never learned till now.

Present:

But this week, I gifted myself a Rubik’s 3*3 cube for my 24th birthday and I decided to solve it completely. The most interesting thing I have learned today is solving the Rubik’s cube. I wish I had my grandfather to share with him how excited I was when I have solved it today(He passed away in 2015).

過去：

解開3*3魔方一直是我童年的願望清單。每當我在暑假去看望我的祖父時，他總是給我買一個魔方，就因為我非常想學習如何完全解決它。（那時我只解一種顏色）。他過去常常買各種尺寸的立方體，甚至不在乎價格。我把他給我帶來的小方塊都堆起來了，到現在我還沒學會。

目前：

但本週，我在24歲生日時送給自己一個3*3魔方，我決定徹底解決這個問題。我今天學到的最有趣的事情是解魔方，我希望我能和祖父分享我今天解決這個問題時的激動心情（他於2015年去世）。

What is the most interesting thing you learned recently?

I always thought trees grew by pushing up out of the ground, in the same way that:

Hair grows out of our heads.

Fingernails grow out of our fingers.

Toothpaste comes out of the toothpaste tube.

They don’t. I was completely wrong.

And I don’t know how I never realised I was wrong about something so basic.

It’s easy to prove.

If you nail a bird feeder to a small sapling a foot from the ground and then wait a year - how high will it be?

A foot from the ground.

And if you wait another year - how high then?

A foot from the ground.

And how high after 500 years when it is a mighty oak tree?

你最近學到的最有趣的事情是什麼？

我一直認為樹木是從地面向上推的方式生長的，其方式與：

頭髮從我們的頭上長出來。

指甲從我們的手指上長出來。

牙膏從牙膏管裏出來。

它們不是的，我完全錯了。

我不知道我怎麼從來沒有意識到我在一些如此基本的事情上的看法是錯的。

這很容易證明。

如果你把喂鳥器釘在離地面一英尺的小樹苗上，然後等一年——屆時它會有多高？

離地面一英尺。

如果你再等一年，那會有多高？

離地面一英尺。

500年後，當它是一棵巨大的橡樹時，它有多高？

A foot from the ground.

In fact - I read up on it and it turns out tree branches aren’t even connected to trees - they are separate pieces, finely interlocked together like dovetail joints on a table, or lego bricks stuck together.

You know those knots in trees? Those are tumors. Trees get cancer too - but it doesn’t matter to trees. The cancer cannot grow or spread .

It’s not like the hair growing out of your head. It’s like making a tower of bricks. Or building a snowman. Or a sandcastle. Or burying your dad in sand on the beach. The tree is the sand you pile on top of him.

And that last thought made me have another thought - one which utterly blew my mind.

We are the same as trees.

We think we do because of our fingernails and our hair.

But fingernails and hair are the dead bits of us, like the bark on a tree. They are dead cells being pushed out of our bodies.

The living bits of our bodies do not grow like this. They grow over and around.

And that means: I am still a seven year old boy. Just like an oak is still a sapling.

離地面一英尺。

事實上——我仔細研究了一下，結果發現樹枝甚至不是連在一起的——它們是分開的，像桌子上的燕尾關節一樣緊密地扣在一起，或者像樂高積木一樣粘在一起。

你知道樹上的結嗎？那些是腫瘤。樹木也會得癌症，但這對樹木來説無關緊要。癌症無法生長或傳播。

這不像你頭上長出的頭髮。這就像是在砌一座磚塔。或者堆雪人。或者沙堡。或者把你爸爸埋在沙灘上的沙子裏，樹就是你堆在他身上的沙子。

最後一個想法讓我產生了另一個想法——一個完全讓我震驚的想法。

我們和樹一樣。

因為我們的指甲和頭髮，我相信我們一樣的。

但是指甲和頭髮是我們身上死去的部分組織，就像樹皮一樣。它們是被擠出我們身體的死亡細胞。

我們身體上有生命的部分不是這樣生長的，它們到處生長。

這意味着:我仍然是一個七歲的男孩。就像橡樹還是樹苗一樣。

I just have a grown man that has grown over and around that seven year old boy and is hiding the boy under layers and layers of older boys, like the rings in a tree, so no one can see him.

But inside me there is still a seven year old boy.

Which is why I have stopped recognising myself in photos, and mirrors shock me. And I have started to notice all people over 30 act like this.

It isn’t self-image issues, I don’t care, I look fine, it’s just… that isn’t me.

So I realised that when very old people say in that mystified, slightly desperate way, as though despairing of ever being able to really convince anyone…

‘I’m 93, you know… 93. I was born in 1925. But it’s so strange. I still feel like a little kid inside, I really do. . I can’t be 93… honestly, deep down I still feel like a kid…’

…we think they are fishing for compliments and tell them they look so young for their age and how there is still lots of life in them yet and how they put people half their age to shame.

But we aren’t listening properly. We are missing their point.

They aren’t fishing for compliments. They don’t care about all that. They stopped caring years ago.

They say they feel like kids because they are kids.

That is a kid talking - a kid trapped inside an old man.

我只是有一個成年男子，他已經在那個七歲的男孩身邊長大，他把男孩藏在一層又一層的大男孩下面，就像樹上的戒指一樣，所以沒有人能看到他。

但在我的內心，仍然有一個七歲的男孩。

這就是為什麼我不再在照片中認出自己，鏡子讓我震驚。我開始注意到所有30歲以上的人都會這樣。

這不是自我形象問題，我不在乎，我看起來很好，只是…那不是我。

所以我意識到，當年紀很大的人用那種困惑的、略帶絕望的方式説話時，就好像他們對能夠真正説服任何人感到絕望。

“我93歲，你知道……93歲。我出生於1925年。但這太奇怪了。”。我仍然覺得自己內心像個小孩，我真的。我不可能93歲……老實説，在內心深處，我仍然覺得自己像個孩子……”

我們認為她們是在尋求讚美，告訴她們看起來比實際年齡年輕，她們還有很多活力，她們讓年齡只有她們一半的人自愧不如。

但我們沒有正確傾聽。我們錯過了他們的觀點。

他們不是在尋求讚美。他們不在乎這些。他們幾年前就不再關心了。

他們説他們覺得自己像孩子，因為他們是孩子。

那是一個孩子在説話——一個被困在老人體內的孩子。
