If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.變老無關(guān)乎物質(zhì)，只在乎心靈。如果自己不介意，那么沒人會(huì)在意。編者話：時(shí)間不過是心靈的航線，留下的無論是否美好，都有其存在的意義。只要你不把它看得太重就好。5.You're throwing away happiness with both hands and reaching out for something that will never make you happy.你在把自己的幸福拱手相讓去追求一些根本不會(huì)讓你幸福的東西。編者話：也許我們并不能確定或斷定自身或他人所求是否真的是內(nèi)心所想所需，但是既然選擇了就應(yīng)該為之負(fù)責(zé)。6.Your mind is like this water, my friend. When it is agitated, it becomes difficult to see. But if you allow it to settle, the answer becomes clear.我的朋友，你的心好似這潭湖水，如果波瀾起伏就會(huì)模糊不清，不過當(dāng)它平靜下來，答案就清澈見底了。編者話：當(dāng)我們遇事時(shí)，守住內(nèi)心的平靜就不會(huì)手足無措，并且可以得到內(nèi)心對(duì)問題真實(shí)的想法。7.The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking.成就一番偉業(yè)的唯一途徑就是熱愛自己的事業(yè)。如果你還沒找到，繼續(xù)尋找不要放棄。跟隨自己的心，總有一天你會(huì)找到。編者話：這就是所謂的“做我所愛”，去尋找一個(gè)能給你的生命帶來意義價(jià)值，和讓你感覺充實(shí)的事業(yè)，都會(huì)讓你對(duì)未來充滿期待。8.Fear can hold you prisoner. Hope can set you free.
