　　範文一

　　Dear son,

　　The day that you see me old and I am already not, have patience and tr y to understand me..。

　　If I get dirty when eating...if I can not 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 with 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..。

　　If ever I do not want to eat, do not force me. I know well when I need to and when not.

　　When my tired legs do not allow me walk...give me your hand...the same way I did when you gave your first steps.

　　And when someday I say to you that I do not want to live any more...that I want to die...do not get angry...some day you will understand...Try to understand that my age is not lived but survived.

　　Some day you will discover that, despite my mistakes, I always wanted the best thing for you and that I tried to prepare the way for you..。

　　You must not feel sad, angry or impotent for seeing me near you. You must be next to me, try to understand me and to help me as I did it when you started living. Help me to walk...help me to end my way with love and patience. I will pay you by a smile and by the immense love I have had always for you.

　　I love you, son..

　　Your father

　　親愛的孩子：

　　當你看到我日漸衰老，昔日的強壯不在之時，請耐心地努力去了解我……

　　如果我吃東西時弄得一團糟……如果我無法穿戴整齊……請耐心點。你要記得，我教你做這些事情時曾花費了多少時間。

　　如果，當我總是一再重複相同的事情……請不要打斷我……請耐心聽我說……

　　在你很小的時候，我必須一遍又一遍地重複講同一個故事給你聽，直到你入睡……

　　當我不想淋浴時，不要羞辱我，也不要斥責我……你要記得，我曾編造了上千條理由，只是為了讓你洗澡……

　　當你看到我對新技術的愚笨無知時，給我一些必要的時間，不要帶著嘲諷的笑意看著我……我曾教了你多少事情啊……吃好，穿好……面對生活……

　　當我在交談中偶爾忘記了內容，或者思路不清……讓我有一些必要的時間回憶……如果我不能想起，請不要不安……因為最重要的不是我的談話，而是有你相伴，有你傾聽……

　　如果我有時不想吃東西，不要強迫我，我清楚自己什麼時候需要食物，什麼時候不需要。

　　當我衰老的雙腿無法行走……伸出你的手……在你邁出人生的第一步時，我也曾這樣幫你。

　　還有，當我有一天告訴你，我不想再活了……想隨風而逝時，不要生氣……總有一日，你會明白的……設法去了解，像我這樣的年紀，不過是苟延殘喘。

　　總有一天，你會發現，儘管我有許多過錯，但我總想給你最好的，並總是設法為你鋪好道路……

　　看到我靠近你時，一定不要感到傷心、生氣或無奈，你一定要站在我身邊，設法理解我、幫助我，就像在你剛開始生活時我所做的那樣。扶著我行走……用愛和耐心幫助我走完人生……我會用微笑和始終給你的寬廣的愛來回報你。

　　我愛你，孩子……

　　你的父親

　　範文二

　　Dear Seth,

　　You’re only three years old, and at this point in your life you can't read, much less understand what I’m going to try to tell you in this letter. But I've been thinking a lot about the life that you have ahead of you, about my life so far as I reflect on what I've learned, and about my role as a dad in trying to prepare you for the trials that you will face in the coming years.

　　You won't be able to understand this letter today, but someday, when you're ready, I hope you will find some wisdom and value in what I share with you.

　　You are young, and life has yet to take its toll on you, to throw disappointments and heartaches and loneliness and struggles and pain into your path. You have not been worn down yet by long hours of thankless work, by the slings and arrows of everyday life.

　　For this, be thankful. You are at a wonderful stage of life. You have many wonderful stages of life still to come, but they are not without their costs and perils.

　　I hope to help you along your path by sharing some of the best of what I've learned. As with any advice, take it with a grain of salt. What works for me might not work for you.

　　Life Can Be Cruel

　　There will be people in your life who won't be very nice. They'll tease you because you're different, or for no good reason. They might try to bully you or hurt you.

　　There's not much you can do about these people except to learn to deal with them, and learn to choose friends who are kind to you, who actually care about you, who make you feel good about yourself. When you find friends like this, hold on to them, treasure them, spend time with them, be kind to them, love them.

　　There will be times when you are met with disappointment instead of success. Life won't always turn out the way you want. This is just another thing you'll have to learn to deal with. But instead of letting these things get you down, push on. Accept disappointment and learn topersevere, to pursue your dreams despite pitfalls. Learn to turn negatives into positives, and you'll do much better in life.

　　You will also face heartbreak and abandonment by those you love. I hope you don't have to face this too much, but it happens. Again, not much you can do but to heal, and to move on with your life. Let these pains become stepping stones to better things in life, and learn to use them to make you stronger.

　　But Be Open to life Anyway

　　Yes, you'll find cruelty and suffering in your journey through life … but don't let that close you to new things. Don't retreat from life, don't hide or wall yourself off. Be open to new things, new experiences, new people.

　　You might get your heart broken 10 times, but find the most wonderful woman the 11th time. If you shut yourself off from love, you'll miss out on that woman, and the happiest times of your life.

　　You might get teased and bullied and hurt by people you meet … and then after meeting dozens of jerks, find a true friend. If you close yourself off to new people, and don't open your heart to them, you'll avoid pain … but also lose out on meeting some incredible people, who will be there during the toughest times of your life and create some of the best times of your life.

　　You will fail many times but if you allow that to stop you from trying, you will miss out on the amazing feeling of success once you reach new heights with your accomplishments. Failure is a stepping stone to success.

　　Life Isn't a Competition

　　You will meet many people who will try to outdo you, in school, in college, at work. They'll try to have nicer cars, bigger houses, nicer clothes, cooler gadgets. To them, life is a competition — they have to do better than their peers to be happy.

　　Here's a secret: Life isn't a competition. It's a journey. If you spend that journey always trying to impress others, to outdo others, you’re wasting your journey. Instead, learn to enjoy the journey. Make it a journey of Happiness, of constant learning, of continual improvement, of love.

　　Don't worry about having a nicer car or house or anything material, or even a better-paying job. None of that matters a whit, and none of it will make you happier. You'll acquire these things and then only want more. Instead, learn to be satisfied with having enough — and then use the time you would have wasted trying to earn money to buy those things … use that time doing things you love.

　　Find your passion, and pursue it doggedly. Don't settle for a job that pays the bills. Life is too short to waste on a job you hate.

　　Love Should Be Your Rule

　　If there's a single word you should live your life by, it should be this: Love. It might sound corny, I know … but trust me, there's no better rule in life.

　　Some would live by the rule of success. Their lives will be stressful, unhappy and shallow.

　　Others would live by the rule of selfishness — putting their needs above those of others. They will live lonely lives, and will also be unhappy.

　　Still others will live by the rule of righteousness — trying to show the right path, andadmonishing anyone who doesn't live by that path. They are concerned with others, but in a negative way, and in the end will only have their own righteousness to live with, and that's a horrible companion.

　　Live your life by the rule of love. Love your spouse, your children, your parents, your friends, with all of your heart. Give to them what they need, and show them not cruelty nordisapproval nor coldness nor disappointment, but only love. Open your soul to them.

　　Love not only your loved ones, but your neighbors … your coworkers … strangers … your brothers and sisters in humanity. Offer anyone you meet a smile, a kind word, a kind gesture, ahelping hand.

　　Love not only neighbors and strangers … but your enemy. The person who is cruelest to you, who has been unkind to you … love him. He is a tortured soul, and most in need of your love.

　　And most of all, love yourself. While others may criticize you, learn not to be so hard on yourself, to think that you’re ugly or dumb or unworthy of love … but to think instead that you are a wonderful human being, worthy of Happiness and love … and learn to love yourself for who you are.

　　Finally, know that I love you and always will. You are starting out on a weird, scary,daunting, but ultimately incredibly wonderful journey, and I will be there for you when I can. Godspeed.

　　Love, Your Dad

　　範文三

　　Dear Little One,

　　I am pretty sure that you're already 16 years old when you've seen this letter. And we do hope that the important lesson I wrote in this letter could be helpful to your future life. After all, it's the important lesson that your dad and mum got from life before your birth.

　　Actually, what I am trying to say is you should always remember your dreams and try to stick to it as much as possible.

　　Yes, this sounds like an old cliché that retold by everybody again and again since primary school. But we do think the main reason for retelling it repeatly is actually most of people failed to stick to their dreams. So do us.

　　Recently, your mother and I were both worried about our future career very much. You know, sometimes, we can't see any possibility of being promoted within next 5 years, because we are in a rigid system. Meanwhile, ironically, we can barely find any other alternative choice for the current dilemma. This anxiety tortured us increasingly as time goes by. To be honest, I don't think I can fully devote myself to the occupation that I am engaged in, for I don't like it since university. And I am very much certain that I couldn't be one of the elites in my occupation without passion.

　　You must know that your parents are both engineers in energy sector, one that sounds high-tech, but actually is not. However, do you know that your father's dream was to be an architect? He showed agreat interest and passion about the structure and space since childhood. For hundreds of thousands of times, he designed all sorts of dreamed houses in his mind. But, as you can see now, he'd failed to achieve that and became a mechanical engineer eventually.

　　One of your dad's friends is a structure engineer from UK. We'd met each other at Sydney and became a close friend afterwards. He is an extraordinary engineer in his field. I believe that it wouldn't be long for him to become an elite one, because I can clearly see his passion towards job when we talk about architecture issues. And that passion is something that I lost for a long time.

　　Life, in my mind, is like a voyage in the sea and dream is the compass on board. Hardly could a captain sail across the ocean successfully without a compass. And also, it could be a disaster for neglecting of the compass even if the captain has one. Therefore, it's true that we should realise the importance of having a dream in mind. But it's even more important to stick to the dream.

　　Soon, I believe that you are going to face an important choice in your life – What do you want to do in the future? Just remember to choose one occupation that you're passionate with. And we will support your decision no matter what you've chosen, for sure!

　　Your eternal fans,

　　Daddy
