1. Most of it doesn’t matter.So much of what I got excited about, anxious about, or wasted my time and energy on, turned out not to matter. There are only a few things that truly count for a happy life. I wish I had known to concentrate on those and ignore the rest.
1.拥有一颗平常心。
太多我曾经为其兴奋,为其焦虑,亦或是浪费了我时间以及精力的事情到最后却被证明是无关紧要的。它们只是幸福生活里极其微小的一部分。我多么希望早点知道这些,以便能把精力都投入到这些关乎幸福的事,而不是其他。
2. The greatest source of misery and hatred in this world is clinging to past hurts.Look at all the terrorists and militant groups that hark back to some event long gone, or base their justification for killing on claims of some supposed historical right to a bit of land, or redress for a wrong done hundreds of years ago.
2.这个世界上痛苦与仇恨最大源泉是对过去的执迷。
看看那些恐怖组织和激进分子,他们总是抓住过去的一些事情不放,或把一小片土地的历史归属问题作为他们进行杀戮的理由,更或是为了修正几百年前的所谓的历史错误。
