My new mantra is liberating. At least once a week I encounter a situation that in the old (young) days would have knocked me to my knees or otherwise spun my life off center.
我最新的箴言是解放自己。每周至少一次,我会遇到状况,放在以前(年轻的时候),它会让我崩溃,或让生活失去重心。
Now I can spot trouble 10 feet away (believe me, this is a big improvement), and I can say to myself: Too old for this. I spare myself a great deal of suffering, and as we all know, there is plenty of that to be had without looking for more.
如今,在离它十英尺远的地方,我就认出这类麻烦(相信我,这是个很大的进步),而且还能跟自己说:太老了,折腾不起。这让我少受很多折磨,而且我们都知道,就算你不自找麻烦,这种事也有一大堆在前面等着你呢。
If there can be such a thing as a best-selling app like Yo, which satisfies so many urges to boldly announce ourselves, I want one called 2old4this. A signature kiss-off to all that was once vexatious. A goodbye to all that has done nothing but hold us back. That would be an app worth having. But, thankfully, I’m too old to need such a thing.
既然这世上会有Yo这样满足很多人大声宣示自我需求的产品存在,还成为最畅销应用,那我也想要一个叫“2old4this”(年纪大了,用不着)的应用。把它作为一个标签,用来拒绝那些曾经让你大伤脑筋的东西,用来跟所有无所助益却又牵绊我们的事物说再见。这样的应用应该挺值拥有。但是,谢天谢地,我年纪大了,用不着了。
