It is connected to a very soft part of your heart. It is a day for remembrance, and especially if you have experienced the loss of loved one. So in my episode today, Lulu is going to share with you some of the sayings in English by people who have also lost someone, and they're trying to cherish their memory. 今天小酒馆里，就着清明我们来说说怀念。 In English, when someone passed away, you usually see the word “in the loving memory of …”, in the loving memory of someone who passed away.Sometimes it's very difficult to forget someone who gives you so much to remember. So let's look at some of these sayings from the famous to the anonymous. But love and emotions in these words are very genuine, all the same. The first saying of the day from the Greek playwright’s, Euripides欧里庇得斯, and he wrote: Come back, even as a shadow, even as a dream, 归来吧，哪怕只是一片影子一个梦境也好，归来吧。 Sometimes we can miss someone so much, but we don't even realize it.This is why in the second saying, it says: Sometimes memories sneak out of my eyes and roll down my cheeks. Sneak out means to secretly get out. So here memories turn into tears. 有时回忆会从眼角偷偷溜出来，滑落我的腮边。 We may not even realize how much we miss someone until we feel the tears.There are so many people in the world. Yet for us, there are only a few that truly matter, this is why saying number three said: Sometimes when one person is absent, the whole world seems depopulated.Depopulated means not having enough people. 明明只少了那么一个人, 整个世上却都冷清了. Sometimes when one person is absent, the whole world seems depopulated. I'm sure a lot of people feel like that when they've lost someone that matter to them the most.
