奥巴马母亲节致辞(3)

时间:2021-08-31

  They did it on May 8 – the same day we’ll celebrate Mother’s Day this year.

  他们设置的日期是五月八日--跟今年的母亲节是同一天。

  If Congress can make a holiday, surely they can back it up with the things that give it meaning.

  如果议会能够通过把母亲节设置为节假日的法案,毫无疑问他们用行动证明了所说的一切。

  After all, that’s what my mother taught me. I couldn’t just say I was going to do the right thing, or say I agreed with it on principle. I had to actually do it.

  无论如何,那是我母亲教我的。我不能仅仅说我将要做的是正确的事,或者说我做的符合原则。事实上,我将要做这件事。

  So this Mother’s Day, say thank you. Say, “I love you.” And let’s make sure we show that gratitude and appreciation through acts of respect throughout the year.

  所以这个母亲节,说谢谢,说“我爱你”。并且今年我们要确保一整年我们都能用行动表明我们的感谢和感激。

  No one deserves that more than our moms.

  没有人能比母亲能值得更好的。

  Happy Mother’s Day, and have a great weekend.

  母亲节快乐,周末愉快。
