I am worthy of a future.”原谅这件事,是为你自己而做,而不是为别人而做。这表示,“你对我来说无足轻重别想束缚我”;也表示,“我的过去不由你牵绊,我的未来由我去做主”。

All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring; renewed shall be blade that was broken, the crownless again shall be king.真金未必都发光,漂泊未必都迷茫;老当益壮不衰朽,根深蒂固经风霜。灰烬重燃熊熊火,阴影复苏熠熠光;宝剑锋从断錾出,无冕之人再称王。
