对于我来说,最残酷的是,公平公正在现实社会很难得到伸张。一个骗子,撒下弥天大谎,可以不付出任何代价获得成功,而一个好人,乐于助人,乐于奉献,却可能饱受苦难,最终一事无成。
People want to believe that things balance out, that those who cause hurt and pain are punished while those who live virtuous lives are rewarded.Many religious systems are built around this idea. But really, people get away with terrible things much of the time, and good deeds are usually unrewarded.
人们总愿意相信事物总是相互平衡的,恶人总会受到惩罚而好人总会得到回报。许多宗教体系也是基于这个观念建立的。然而,现实中坏人总能逃之夭夭,善举通常没有回报。
This is a symptom of a larger truth: most of reality is noise. We look for and find general patterns in the noise, but the complexity of reality is such that most of what happens is essentially random and out of anyone’s control. The reason for any given event is never simple, and while we can maybe influence things, we don’t really control them.
这就揭示出了一个更大的真理:大部分的现实都如同噪音。我们要在这种噪音内寻找通用的模式,然而现实是如此复杂,大部分的事件基本上都是随机发生的,不受任何人控制。事出皆有因,而这些原因从来都不简单,尽管我们可能会影响一些事物,然而却不能控制它们。
