This young girl has 6 months left to live, and as her dying wish, she wanted to send a letter telling everyone to live their life to the fullest, since she never will.
/ B. A" @* t" y& T8 {" b: VShe'll never make it to prom, graduate from high school, or get married and have a family of her own.

One guy sent this to 500 people! So I know that we can at least send it to 5 or 6. It's not even your money, just your time!

这诗的大概意思让人们停下匆匆的脚步,好好地体会生命,好好地关爱身边的人。

这几天赋闲在家,我也想如此,可是每次开车外出,看着车辆稀疏的街道,我心里就感觉特别惶惶。
