人生有时需要耐心
There is an ancient saying in China goes as: If your ship is against the current, you lose your ground when you don't advance.
中国有句谚语说:“逆水行舟,不进则退。”
Isn't this talking about life?
这不就是人生吗?
If you want something, you need to work at your best constantly.
你需要不断地努力,才能得到自己想要的东西。
But many other sages have told us that sometimes you need to slow down so that you can find peace and see clearly what you truely want in the first place.
但是,也有很多哲人的名言告诉我们:人生中,有时候也需要慢下脚步,这样才能冷静下来看清自己的初心。
The competition in our society is fierce. It is now. It used to be. And it will be.
社会上的竞争是激烈的,现在是,以前也是,将来也一样会是。
And at the same time. We have family, friends and lovers who we need to cherish.
同时,我们还有亲人、朋友、爱情这些关系需要去滋养。
But we all only have 24 hours a day.
然而,我们每个人在一天之中都只有24个小时。
And a lot of time among these hours have to be used to rest. Otherwise we won't be able to survive.
而且这其中的很长一段时间还必须用来休息,不然我们就没法生存。
Yes, your energy is limited. There are limitations that you cannot go beyond.
是的,你的精力是有限的,有些极限是你没有办法超越的。
So you really need to remind yourself that sometimes life does take patience.
所以有时候真的得提醒自己:人生需要耐心。
There are things that you can't do only with your determination. They require your patience.
有很多事情并不是你下决心就能够做到,它们需要时间。
Slow down. Shake off some anxiety. Find more peace. By doing this you can actually go farther.
慢一点,少一点焦虑,多一些平静,这样其实走得更远。
