我曾經有一位老師，他的丈夫因心臟病突然去世
About a week after his death, she shared some of her thoughts with a classroom of students.
他去世大約一週後，她與一群學生分享了一些想法
As the late afternoon sunlight shone through the classroom windows and the class was nearly over,she removed a few things aside on the edge of her desk and sat down there.
午後陽光照進教室的窗戶，全班快結束了，她移開桌子邊緣的一些東西，坐在那裡
With a gentle look on her face, she paused and said,"Before class is over, I'd like to share with all of you a thought that is unrelated to class, but which I feel is very important.
她溫柔地看著臉上，停下來說：“上課結束前，我想與大家分享與上課無關的想法，但我認為這很重要

Her eyes were beginning to water, but she went on, "So I would like you all to make me a promise."

It could be the smell of freshly baked bread floating out of someone's house, or it could be the sound of the breeze rustling the leaves in the trees…
可能是新鮮出爐的麵包從某人的房屋中漂浮出來的氣味，也可能是微風使樹上的葉子沙沙作響的聲音……

請尋找這些東西，並感謝它們，因為它們可以隨時被帶走
The class was completely quiet.
