想想这个流行的说法,“人生如此短暂,所以……”下面这几句动人的话你总是会听到:
Life is too short to hold on to regret.
人生如此短暂,所以不能后悔。
Life is too short to work at a job you hate.
人生如此短暂,所以不要做你讨厌的工作。
Life is too short to play small.
人生如此短暂,所以要尽情玩乐。
Life is too short to {insert your favorite here}.
人生如此短暂,所以[加上你最喜欢的吧]
Aphorisms like these certainly imply that time is your enemy. However, time is not the reason why you ought to give up regret, revamp your career, or up your game. Even the shortness of life is not the reason. There is an assumption going on here that entirely misses where the real problem lies.
像这样的警句毫无疑问在暗示时间是你的敌人。然而,时间并不是你应该放弃悔恨、改换事业、尽情享乐的理由。甚至人生的短暂也不是理由。这些都是假设,而掩盖了真正的问题所在。
A short life and limited time would be a blessing in these circumstances. After all, the less time one spends in some undesired state, the better. A short amount of regret? Sounds great. A short time at a crummy job? Excellent. A short time of cowering in the corner? What could be better?
在这些情况里,短暂的人生和有限的时间其实是好事情。毕竟一个人在一些不喜欢的状态中花的时间越少越好。少一些悔恨?听起来不错。少做一些寒酸的工作?好极了。少花些时间缩在角落?还有什么能比这更好呢!
