简介
文案：
Sometimes the loneliness can be as painful as the arthritis
What does spreading a smile cost you?
A half-hour of your time.
Three slices of home-made cake.
Flowers you picked yourself.
A photograph of your boyfriend.
A long distance phone call.
Doing your Dev Anand imitation.
Asking a question.
Reading a short story.
Listening to a long one.
A surprise Sunday morning visit.
Walking the dog.
Changing a bulb.
Telling a dirty joke.
Asking for advice.
Giving it.
Flirting.
Gossiping.
Laughing.
Listening.
All you have to spend on the elderly is your time.
有时，孤独和关节炎一样痛
露出笑脸会花费些什么？
你的半个小时。
三块自家做的蛋糕。
自己采摘的花朵。
你男朋友的一张照片。
一个长途电话。
模仿一下Dev Anand。
问一些问题。
读一篇小说。
听一个故事。
星期天早上出其不意的拜访。
遛狗。
换一个灯泡。
讲一个黄色笑话。
征求一下他的建议。
给他一些建议。
调情、闲聊、笑、聆听。
你只要花一点儿时间陪陪老人就够了。
God gave you shoulders so that someone could lean on them.
What will I say?
Will she just keep quiet?
What if she starts to cry?
Will I be upset?
Can she even hear me?
Will I have the time?
What if……
You can find
a million reasons
To put off that visit.
But remember.
You’re worried
about how
to get through
the rest of
the evening.
She’s worried
about how
to get through
the rest of
her life.
All you have to spend on the elderly is your time.
上帝给你肩膀是为了让别人靠的
我该说些什么？
她会保持安静吗？
万一她哭了怎么办？
我也会很伤心吗?
她能不能听见我讲话？
我会有时间吗？
万一……
你可以找到一万个理由，
推迟拜访一位老人。
但记住，
你忧心的，
只是如何度过几个剩下的夜晚。
她忧心的，
是如何度过剩下的生命。
你只要花一点儿时间陪陪老人就够了。
你只要花一点儿时间陪陪老人就够了。
When I want to hear a human voice, I turn on the television.
After
10,172 late nights
at the office.
After
17,203 urgent phone calls
and 259 Saridons.
After
1,406 business dinners
and 974 Digenes,
what?
Slow down,
Postpone a meeting,
Put off a few telephone calls.
Spend time with an elderly person.
Lend a shoulder.
Share a few laughs.
Just be around.
Because one day
old age
will catch up with you.
Sooner than
you think.
All you have to spend on the elderly is your time.
当我想听一听人的声音时，就打开电视机
在办公室度过10127个深夜之后，
在17203个紧急电话和259片散列通之后，
在1406次商务餐和974盒Digene胃药之后。
做点什么？
停下来把会议延迟，
推迟几个电话，
花一点儿时间陪陪老人。
借一个肩膀给老人靠靠，
陪老人笑一笑，
呆在老人身边就行了。
因为有一天，
你也会老去，
在你根本来不及察觉的时候。
你只要花一点儿时间陪陪老人就够了。
你只要花一点儿时间陪陪老人就够了。
Even a cup of tea doesn’t taste the same if you have no one share it with.
What if you wanted
to wake up in somebody’s arm,
not in an empty bed?
What if you wanted
for the doorbell to ring,
and no one ever came?
What if you wore a new sari,
and only your mirror noticed?
What if you tried out
a new recipe,
but your table was always
set for one?
What if the day took
forever to pass,
and the world went rushing by?
What if you had
A lifetime of stories to tell,
and no one close enough to listen?
What if one fine day,
out of the blue,
is happened to you?
All you have to spend on the elderly is your time.
如果没有人陪伴，连茶的味道都会不一样
倘若你想醒来时躺在另一个人的怀里，
而不是空荡荡的床上，怎么办？
倘若你在等待门铃响起，
却没有一个人来，怎么办？
倘若你穿上一件新的纱丽，
但只有你的镜子注意到了，怎么办？
倘若你做了一道刚学来的菜，
但餐桌旁总是只有你一个人，怎么办？
倘若日子就这样无情的流逝，
而世界还是飞速运转，怎么办？
倘若你有一生的故事要讲，
却没有人来听，怎么办？
倘若这一切突然之间发生在你身上，怎么办？
你只要花一点儿时间陪陪老人就够了。
你只要花一点儿时间陪陪老人就够了。
Just because his body is seventy years old doesn’t mean his mind is any less inquisitive.
Just what do I talk to him about?

Introduce him to your grandmother.
Learn the fox trot.
Teach him dirty dancing.
All you have to spend on the elderly is your time.

你的女朋友比苏丝米塔·森还漂亮。
让他借给你他的鸭舌帽。

永远别问他的年纪。
说你自己年纪时多加几岁。

你只要花一点儿时间陪陪老人就够了。
A tear-drop is wasted if it’s your own hand that wipes it away
You can
sit back
in your
upholstered office chair,
whip out your
cheque book,
unscrew
your gold-nibbed
Mont blanc
fountain pen.
write out
a nice big donation
to your favorite
charity
and feel good
inside.
But
the elderly
do not want
your money.
Could you
handover
a little
of your time?
All you have to spend on the elderly is your time.
如果眼泪是自己的手擦干的，那它就白流了。
你可以
坐在有软垫的办公椅上，
抽出你的支票本。
拧开
黄金笔尖的
万宝龙钢笔，
给你最喜欢的慈善机构
捐献
一大笔钱。
并且感到由衷的
欣慰。
但是，
老人不需要你的钱。
你能，
捐出一点点
时间吗？
你只要花一点儿时间陪陪老人就够了。

“有时，孤独和关节炎一样痛。”
这是我迄今最喜欢的一句文案。
可以看看《老后破产》这本书，也是讲老人退休后惨淡生活的。
