過去進行式

The other day, I was out walking my puppy, Fred, and a woman who was running stopped to warn me about some glass that had been broken ahead.

有一天，我在外面遛小狗 Fred，一個跑步的女人停下來提醒我前面有玻璃被打碎了。

to 不定詞

And as I did that, another guy stopped to warn me about the same thing.

就在我這樣做的時候，另一個人也停下來警告我同樣的事情。

So within, I don't know, 10 seconds, two complete strangers stopped another stranger, tell her to be careful so that her dog would not step on glass.

於是，不知道過了多久，10 秒鐘之內，兩個完全陌生的人攔住了另一個陌生人，告訴她要小心，不要讓她的狗踩到玻璃上。

And it made my day and it got me thinking about other random things that people do that just make us feel good.

這讓我高興了一天，也讓我想到了人們做的其他讓我們感覺良好的隨機事情。

So if you're looking for a wholesome as hell video, look no further, it's about to begin.

所以，如果你正在尋找一個健康的影片，那就別再找了，馬上就要開始了。

You know, when you're standing with a group of people, and there's this one person who is literally standing right in front of you blocking you out, here's the person who notices and takes a step back so that you are also included.

你知道，當你站在一群人中時，有這樣一個人，他就站在你面前擋住了你，這時有人會察覺到並向後退一步，讓你也被包含在內。

Just people who include others in general.

The one person who stops and waits for you while you tie your shoe, holding the door for others, but not when they are too far away, making them do that awkward little run.

當你繫鞋帶時，那個人會停下來等你，為其他人開門，但當他們離得太遠時，他不會這樣做，讓他們做出尷尬的小跑步。

When someone asks you to text them when you get home safe, and then if you forgot, they text you to make sure that you actually got home.

當有人要求你在安全到家時給他們發訊息，如果你忘記了，他們會發訊息給你確保你確實到家了。

It just shows that it's not something they just said, but that they actually care.

這表明他們不僅僅是說說而已，而是他們真正關心的。

When you tell someone something and they actually listen to you instead of making the conversation about them; that one friend who wishes you happy birthday at midnight.

當你告訴某人某事，而他們實際上在聽你說話，而不是談論他們時； 一位在午夜時分祝你生日快樂的朋友。

When someone hypes up your taste in music, when someone notices a change that you made to your appearance, when someone's about to go to the store and they ask if you want anything.

當有人為你的音樂品味感到興奮時，當有人注意到你改變外貌時，當有人要去商店時問你是否想要什麼。

People who get excited when you get excited.

當你興奮時，他們也會興奮的人。

The person who does not let you stand there awkwardly when they run into someone they know, but rather they introduce you to each other.

當他們遇到認識的人時，不會讓你尷尬地站在那裡，而是會把你介紹給對方。

When you want to take a seat, but there's no room and then someone scooped over for you.

當你想坐下來，但沒有位置，然後移出位子給妳。

People who actually say the nice things that they think about you.

那些真心說出對你好的想法的人。

You know, I think the world needs more of that. I know that I need to get better at that.

你知道，我認為世界需要更多這樣的人。 我知道我需要在這方面做得更好。

When you're telling a story or a joke, and it seems like no one is listening or you keep getting interrupted, but there is that one person who maintains eye contact and just waits for you to continue.

當你在講故事或笑話時，似乎沒有人在聽，或者你總是被打斷，但有一個人會保持目光接觸，只是等你繼續。

When you're standing in line at the grocery store, carrying like one or two items and the person in front of you has their cart full and they let you go ahead of them.

當你在雜貨店排隊時，拿著一兩件物品，而你前面的人的購物車裝滿了，他們會讓你走在他們前面。

Speaking of grocery stores, when something has fallen off the shelf and you see someone picking it up rather than just walking past it.

說到雜貨店，當東西從架子上掉下來時，會看到有人撿起它，而不是只是走過去。

There's something wholesome about seeing someone let someone else in when there's traffic.

當交通擁擠時，看到有人讓別人進來是一件有益健康的事情。

I remember when I worked at an office and there were certain people who would always say good morning when I arrived and goodbye when I left.

我記得當我在辦公室工作時，有些人總是在我到達時說早安，在我離開時說再見。

And it was such a nice start and end to the day.

這對這一天來說是一個美好的開始和結束。

You know, now that I tell this to you, I noticed that there was a lot of just acknowledging people's presence.

你知道，現在我告訴你這個，我注意到有很多人只是承認人們的存在。

So perhaps we do too little of that offering help or simply asking if they're okay when you see someone struggling with something on the street or in any situation.

因此，當你看到有人在街上或在任何情況下遇到困難時，我們可能做得太少了，提供幫助或只是詢問他們是否還好。

So my sister told me this little story recently where she was out and about and she spotted an old lady who looked very lost and it turned out she had forgotten where she lived, and so my sister offered to walk her home.

最近，我姐姐給我講了一個小故事：她外出時看到一位老太太，她看起來很迷茫，原來她忘記了自己住在哪裡，於是，我姐姐主動提出送她回家。

People who bring you snacks, food, anything to eat.

會給你帶零食、食物，任何可以吃的東西的人。

When people remember the small details of something that you mentioned casually at some point.

記得你在某一時刻不經意提到的一些小細節的人。

When someone says, "I would like for you to join" instead of "You can join if you want."

說「我希望你加入」而不是「你想加入就加入」的人。

This is something that I thought of recently.

And it's when someone actually circles back to you on something that you recommended to them when they ask.

當有人詢問你向他們推薦的東西時，他們實際上會回覆你。

So someone's like, "Can you recommend me a song," and you recommend the song, and then later on, they get back to you being like, "Hey, I listen to the song."

所以有人會說，「你能給我推薦一首歌嗎？」你推薦了，然後，他們回覆你說，「嘿，我聽了這首歌了。」

Like I remember in school, there were certain teachers who would explain something once and who hated having to explain it again.

就像我記得在學校裡，有些老師講解過一次之後，就不喜歡再講解了。

And then there were those teachers who were just as enthusiastic the fifth time they had to explain something.

還有一些老師，他們在第五次講解時還是那麼熱情。

People who just hype you up when they know that you have been struggling with something and then you finally get it right.

知道你一直在為某件事情苦苦掙扎，而最終你終於做對了的時候，他們就會把你捧上天的人。

Like let's say you are playing golf with your friends and you can barely hit the ball and then you finally hit the ball and everyone just gets all hyped up.

比方說，你和朋友一起打高爾夫，你幾乎打不到球，最後你終於打到了球，大家都興奮不已。

That's just some wholesome stuff right there.

If you're not thinking Uber drivers, waiters, anyone who's offering you a service, you better start that right now.

如果你還沒有考慮 Uber 司機、服務員或任何為你提供服務的人，最好現在就開始考慮。

See, to survive, we need to eat, drink, sleep and we need shelter.

你看，為了生存，我們需要吃喝拉撒睡，我們需要住所。

But to be cool, we can give someone a smile, we can say hi, we can say please and we can say thank you.

但是，為了當個酷酷的人，我們可以給別人一個微笑，我們可以打招呼，我們可以說請，我們可以說謝謝。

And actually, that smile may make someone's entire day or even save a life.

而實際上，這個微笑可能會讓別人愉快地度過一整天，甚至挽救一條生命。

By the way, I do not do all these things all the time.

順便說一句，我並不是一直在做這些事情。

I don't always notice when someone's not being included. I don't always circle back when someone gives me a recommendation.

我並不總是注意到有人沒有被包括在內。 當有人向我推薦東西時，我並不總是回覆。

You know, I try but I am in no way perfect.

你知道，我盡力了，但我不可能是完美的。

And so this is just as much a reminder to myself as it is to you.

所以這既是對我自己的提醒，也是對你們的提醒。
