Returning to the world after death 回國後的世界死刑

I’ve always thought about what happens when we scatter a little of ourselves across the Earth.我總是想到會發生什麼，當我們散步一點點自己的整個地球。 I have had my hair cut in Tokyo, have clipped my nails in Norway, watched my blood flow from a wound halfway up a mountain in France.我有我的頭髮削減在東京，已被截斷我釘在挪威，觀看了我的血流量，從傷口中途了一個在法國山區。 In my first book, “The Archives of Hell” (which has never been reprinted), I speculated about this, as if we felt we had to sow a little of our own body in various parts of the world, so that in a future life, something would be familiar to us.在我的第一本書“的檔案地獄” （即從未重印） ，我猜測，因為如果我們認為我們不得不母豬一點點我們自己的身體在世界各地，以便在未來的生活中，一些將熟悉的給我們。 I recently read in the French newspaper Le Figaro, an article by Guy Barret about a true story which took place in 2001, when someone took this idea to its final conclusion.我最近讀了在法語報紙費加羅報的一篇文章傢伙巴烈特約一個真實的故事發生在2001年，當有人發生這種想法其最後的結論。

It was about the American Vera Anderson, who spent her entire life in the town of Medford, Oregon.這是有關美國維拉安德森，誰花了她的整個生活在城市的梅德福，俄勒岡州。 In old age, she was the victim of a cardiovascular accident made worse by emphysema of the lungs, forcing her to spend years in her room connected to a balloon of oxygen.在晚年，她是受害者，心血管意外而變得更加嚴重肺氣腫的肺部，強迫她用多年在她的房間連接到一個氣球的氧氣。 As if all this wasn’t enough of a burden, Vera’s case was even more cruel, because she had always dreamed of going round the world, and had saved up in order to do so in retirement.至於如果這一切是不夠的一個負擔，維拉的案件，更是殘忍，因為她一直夢想去環遊世界，並保存起來為了做到這一點，在退休。
Vera managed to be transferred to Colorado, so that she might spend her remaining days in the company of her son, Ross.維拉管理將轉移到科羅拉多州，使她可能會花費她餘下的天在該公司的，她的兒子，羅斯。 There, before making her final journey - the one none of us return from - she took a decision.在那裡，然後才作出了她的最後旅程-一個我們當中沒有任何的回報-她作出了決定。 Since she would never get to know even her own country, she would travel after she died.因為她絕不會去了解，甚至她自己的國家，她將她的旅行後死亡。
Ross went to the local notary office and registered her mother’s will: when she died, she wished to be cremated.羅斯前往當地公證處和登記她的母親的意志：當她死了，她希望火化。 So far, nothing unusual.直至目前為止，沒有什麼不尋常的。 But the will went on: her ashes were to be placed in 241 little bags, which were to be sent to the chiefs of the mail services in 50 American states, and each of the 191 countries in the world - so that at least part of her body would end up visiting the places she always dreamed about.但會就到：她的骨灰被放置在241小袋，其中被發送到酋長的郵件服務，在50個美洲國家，和每191個國家在世界上-所以說，至少有一部分她的屍體最終會參觀的地方，她總是夢想。
As soon as Vera departed, Ross fulfilled her last wish with the dignity one would expect of a son.盡快離開維拉，羅斯履行了她的遺願與尊嚴的人會期望一個兒子。 Each parcel carried an accompanying letter asking for a laying to rest worthy of her mother.每個包裹進行一陪同的信，要求為奠定休息，值得她的母親。
All the people who received Vera Anderson’s ashes respectfully obeyed Ross’s wish.所有的人誰收到維拉安德森的骨灰恭敬地聽從羅斯的願望。 On the four corners of the Earth, a silent chain of solidarity was formed, along which unknown well-wishers organized diverse ceremonies and rites, always taking into consideration the place the deceased woman would liked to have known.對四個角落的地球，一種無聲的連鎖團結形成，沿著未知的，以及祝福有組織不同的儀式和儀式，始終考慮的地方，死者的女子會喜歡有眾所周知的。
Thus, Vera’s ashes were scattered on Lake Titicaca, in Bolivia, following the ancient traditions of the Aymara Indians; on the river outside the royal palace in Stockholm; on the banks of Choo Praya, in Thailand; at a Shinto temple in Japan; on the icecaps of Antarctica; in the Sahara desert.因此，渾子的骨灰散落在的喀喀湖，在玻利維亞，繼古老的傳統的艾馬拉印第安人;上河以外的王宮在斯德哥爾摩;對銀行的秋秉直海旁，在泰國，在一個神道寺廟在日本;就icecaps的南極洲，在撒哈拉大沙漠。 The brothers of a charitable orphanage in South America (the article doesn’t say which country) prayed for a week before casting the ashes in the garden - and they then decided that Vera Anderson should be considered a type of guardian angel of that place.兄弟會的慈善孤兒院在南美洲（文章並沒有說哪一個國家）祈禱前一個星期鑄造的骨灰在花園裡-然後，他們決定，維拉安德森應被視為一種守護天使的那個地方。
Ross Anderson received photos from the five continents, from all races and cultures, showing men and women honoring his mother’s last wish.羅斯安德森照片收到來自五大洲，從所有種族和文化，顯示男性和女性兌現他的母親的遺願。 When we see such a divided world as today’s, and think no one could care less about each other, this last journey of Vera Anderson fills us with hope, knowing that respect, love and generosity still dwell in the souls of our fellow men and women, however distant they may be.當我們看到這樣一個分裂的世界，作為今天的，並認為沒有人可以照顧少講對方，這最後的征程中維拉安德森我們充滿希望，知道尊重，愛和慷慨，仍然住在亡靈，我們的男同胞和婦女，但遙遠的，他們可能。
