' \+ ?5 M) a$ e; d$ ?: M( ?1 w# E$ fThis 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.
She'll never make it to prom, graduate from high school, or get married and have a family of her own.
) \3 n+ o$ a5 h2 MBy you sending this to as many people as possible, you can give her and her family a little hope, because with every name that this is sent to, The American Cancer Society will donate 3 cents per name to her treatment and recovery plan. 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。

小女孩悟出这些并且一字一句地写下来，真让人心疼。
好好爱着好好活着......

我会COPY下来发给我能够发给的朋友。
