雙語美文：靜靜地活，不埋怨也不嘲笑

Almost everybody thinks they are really the masters of their own lives.

幾乎每個(gè)人都以為自己真的擁有自己的人生。

I used to think that way, too.

我以前也這么想。

But, that was the past.

但是，那是以前了。

Through the uphills and downhills of my life, I’ve come to realise that I didn’t really ever own my own life. And neither did most of the others.

在生活的坎坷中，我慢慢看清了，原來曾經(jīng)的我并沒有擁有自己的生活，就和很多人一樣。

I used to be so restless and shallow. I was always satisfied with what things seem to be at first sight. And I was seldom able to calm down and reflect on the present moment.

從前的我，浮躁又膚淺，總是只滿足于生活最表面的東西，并且很少能冷靜下來認(rèn)清此時(shí)此刻。

But what it really means to own your own life is that you put your heart into the present moment.

然而，真正的擁有，是需要你把心安在當(dāng)下的。

Otherwise you’re nothing but just a passenger who are forced to drive through this highway that we call life. You don’t own it. And you can’t enjoy it.

否則，你只是在生活這條快車道上被迫前行的一個(gè)匆匆旅者，你并不擁有它，也沒法享受它。

Now, I choose to live my life calmly without restlessness, mockery or complaints.

現(xiàn)在，我選擇靜靜地生活，不浮躁、不嘲笑，也不埋怨。

Being like this, I suddently discovered that my vission had become clearer.

在這種狀態(tài)里，我突然發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的視線變清晰了。

Many problems that troubled me before are now solved.

從前困擾我的很多難題，現(xiàn)在都有了答案。

I’m grateful that I made such a decision. In the past I can only dream what kind of a life that I can live. But now I can live this life as I wanted.

我感謝自己做出了這樣的決定，因?yàn)?，從前我只能做自己的夢，而現(xiàn)在我能夠走自己的路。
