为了全世界的孩子丨扎克伯格写给女儿的一封信（节选）

Dear Max,
亲爱的麦柯斯，

Your mother and I don't yet have the words to describe the hope you give us for the future. Your new life is full of promise, and we hope you will be happy and healthy so you can explore it fully. You've already given us a reason to reflect on the world we hope you live in.
你妈妈和我还找不到词汇来描述你给我们带来的对未来的期望。你的新生活充满了潜能，我们愿你能健康快乐，以让你充分地去探索研究。你已经给了我们一个理由去反思我们希望你生活的那个世界。

Like all parents, we want you to grow up in a world better than ours today.
像所有的父母一样，我们想要你长大后的世界比我们今天更好。

While headlines often focus on what's wrong, in many ways the world is getting better. Health is improving. Poverty is shrinking. Knowledge is growing. People are connecting. Technological progress in every field means your life should be dramatically better than ours today.
新闻总是会报道哪里出了问题，但在好多方面这个世界正变得越来越好。健康状况在改善、贫困人群在减少、大家的知识水平在增加，人们彼此的联系越来越紧密。技术在各个方面的进步意味着你们这一代的生活会比我们现在有巨大的变化。

We will do our part to make this happen, not only because we love you, but also because we have a moral responsibility to all children in the next generation.
我们会尽全力让这种变化发生，不仅仅是因为我们爱你，更是因为我们有责任去爱护下一代所有的孩子。

We believe all lives have equal value, and that includes the many more people who will live in future generations than live today. Our society has an obligation to invest now to improve the lives of all those coming into this world, not just those already here.
我们相信所有的生命都有同等的价值，这里面保护生活在未来和现在的所有人。我们的社会有义务去为所有即将来到这个世界的生命去投资，而不是仅仅关注眼前和当下。

………………

Max, we love you and feel a great responsibility to leave the world a better place for you and all children. We wish you a life filled with the same love, hope and joy you give us. We can't wait to see what you bring to this world.
麦柯斯，我们爱你，我们觉得为你和所有的孩子们建立一个更好的世界是我们的责任。我们祝愿你的一生都充满了爱、希望、欢乐，就像你带给我们的那样。我们已等不及想要看到你会给世界带来什么。

Love,
爱你的，
Mom and Dad
妈妈和爸爸
