Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. The best is yet to come.

how many times i despised my soul

在查despise的时候读到首英诗,蛮喜欢,摘下来权当记单词了。

Seven times have I despised my soul
Kahlil Gibran,1883—1931

The first time when I saw her being meek that she might attain height.
The second time when I saw her limping before the crippled.
The third time when she was given to choose between the hard and the easy, and she chose the easy.   
The fourth time when she committed a wrong, and comforted herself that others also commit wrong.
The fifth time when she forbore for weakness, and attributed her patience to strength.
The sixth time when she despised the ugliness of a face, and knew not that it was one of her own masks.
And the seventh time when she sang a song of praise, and deemed it a virtue.


我的心悲伤过七次 纪伯伦

第一次,是当我看到她本可进取,却故作谦卑时。
第二次,是当我看到她在瘸子面前跛行而过时。
第三次,是当她在难易之间,却选择了容易时。
第四次,是当她犯了错,却借由别人也会犯错来宽慰自己时。
第五次,是当她因为软弱而忍让,却声称为自己的坚韧时。
第六次,是当她鄙夷一张丑恶的嘴脸,却不知那正是自己面具中的一副时。
第七次,是当她吟唱圣歌,却自诩为一种美德时。


后记。


洗澡的时候可能缺氧了,走出浴室,眼前昏花不能控制地一头栽了下去。很难受。上一次休克应该是高三了。坐在地上,房东大爷很关切的给我灌了一杯可乐,凉凉的好舒服。见我好些,大爷又开始眨眨眼睛打趣我说,我特别喜欢听你洗澡时候唱的歌。我笑。


“如果过去过不去,反正未来还未来。”


明天又要启程了。向着北极圈出发,听说零下30度了,完全没有概念穿什么才好呢。一样的小芒果旅行箱,卡片机,本子和笔,少了小touch终归有点郁闷。不同以往的是这次只订了第一程的机票,以后的半个月,就随性的走吧,想到哪里就出发好了。


“不如放个长长长假,私奔去那他他他乡。”
