Soon thereafter,I left the big enterprise that I had worked in for years to start my own business.We lost touch,but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it.Several years later,I heard Michael was involved in a serious accident,falling off 60feetfrom a communications tower.
那以后不久,我离开了工作数年的大企业去创建自己的公司。我们失去了联系,但当我对生活做出一种选择而非对它做出反应时,我时常想起迈克尔。几年之后,我听说迈克尔遭遇一场恶性事故,从一座通讯大楼的60英尺高处掉了下来。
After l8 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care,Michael was released from the hospital with rods placed in his back.I saw Michael about six months after the accident.When I asked him how he was,he replied,“If I were any better,I’d bet wins.Do you want to see my scars?”I declined to see his wounds,but did ask him what had gone through his mind as the accident took place.
经历了18个小时的手术和数周的精心护理,迈克尔出院了,背部装有金属杆。大约事故半年之后,我见到了迈克尔。我问他怎么样,他回答:“如果还能再好,我就成双胞胎了。想看看我的伤疤吗?”我拒绝看他的伤疤,但问他事故发生时他是怎么想的。
