--- title: Make Each Day Count created: 2026-04-24 modified: 2026-10-25 --- 前幾天去醫院探病。在地下停車場取車時,正好路過安息室。家人突然轉頭問我: > 你害怕死亡嗎? 我停頓了一下,然後說: > [比起死亡,我更害怕虛度光陰,害怕自己沒有用盡全力過好每一天。](https://huam.ing/who-do-we-spend-time-with-across-our-lifetime) 電影《[鐵達尼號](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120338)》中,李奧納多在晚宴舉杯那句「[Make each day count](https://youtu.be/JYdCltjvrxg)」,經常在我的腦海中徘徊。 生命本身就是一個提問,而我們 [如何活著](https://huam.ing/ted-taipei-2025),就是對它的回答 [^1]。每天醒來,是一次歸零,更是另一個全力以赴的機會。 羅馬皇帝兼哲學家 [Marcus Aurelius](https://www.google.com/search?q=Marcus+Aurelius) 在《[沉思錄](https://www.books.com.tw/products/0010816881)》([Meditations](https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/31010-meditations))寫道: > 早上醒來時,想一想:能夠活著 — 能夠呼吸、思考、享受、去愛 — 是多麼珍貴的特權。然後,讓這一天值得! > > When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive—to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love—then make that day count! **Make each day count.** [^1]: _“Our attitude toward life determines life’s attitude towards us.” — John N.
