陈旧

从15楼望下广州一个小角落,零零落落的陈旧建筑物,不知住了多少代的家庭,养了多少代的子孙。因为工作的关系,我要到几家户去做家访。站在这一栋栋陈旧的建筑物面前,被这一座座悠久的家户围绕着,更有一种岁月不饶人的感觉。但是,住在里面的这一家家的人都有着对未来的憧憬,完全没有被这一些快要被历史淘汰的建筑物所封闭。

I looked down on one small corner of Guangzhou from 15th floor. I can see tons of dated buildings scattering on this small piece of corner. There is countless of families resided in these buildings, and there is myriad of generations born from these buildings. Due to work, I have to visit some of these families. Standing in front of these buildings, surrounded by all these buildings, I feel that tide of time waits for no man. However, the families that live in these buildings, they still hold deeply their dreams for the future. Their dreams certainly haven't been engulfed by all these dated buildings.
