Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned along the way, it’s that all our personal successes shine a little less brightly if we fail at family. That’s what matters most. When I look back on my life, I won’t be thinking about any particular legislation I passed or policy I promoted. I’ll be thinking about Michelle, and the journey we’ve been on together. I’ll be thinking about Sasha’s dance recitals and Malia’s tennis matches – about the conversations we’ve had and the quiet moments we’ve shared. I’ll be thinking about whether I did right by them, and whether they knew, every day, just how much they were loved.
因为如果说我成长中学到了什么东西的话,这就是如果我们在家庭上失败了,我们所有个人的成功都少了一点儿明亮的光泽,这才是最重要的。当我回忆我的一生,我不会想到任何我通过的待定法案,或是我力促的政策,我将会想到的是米歇尔和我们一起走过的岁月,我将会想到的是萨沙的舞蹈演出和玛丽亚的网球比赛,我们在一起的对话和我们一起共享的静谧时光。我会想是否我做对了,是否他们知道每一天,我是如此的爱着她们。
That’s what I think being a father is all about. And if we can do our best to be a source of comfort and encouragement to our kids; if we can show them unconditional love and help them grow into the people they were meant to be; then we will have succeeded.
