爱自己是一场毕生浪漫的开始
荷叶/译
爱自己是一场毕生浪漫的开始。
——奥斯卡·王尔德
爱自己。爱使自己成为自己的一切。爱自己的价值,天赋和记忆。爱自己的服饰,鼻子和痛苦。如果爱自己,你就会借助自信这一跳板,一跃而进入自己的生活。如果爱自己,你会说你想说的话,去你想去的地方。
世界是个严峻的地方,这里有数以亿计的人试图将你打倒。不要加入这些人。做使自己骄傲的事情。为自己的所作所为感到自豪,为自己感到自豪。
你究竟是谁?什么使你成为自己?你喜欢自己的同胞,邻居和朋友吗?你哪里与众不同?如果你是自己的暗恋者,你最钦佩自己哪些?
“我最大的过失,我不能原谅自己的错误是,”奥斯卡·王尔德写道,“是将来有一天我停止了对个性的坚定追求。”坚持追求自己的个性。坚持做自己。成为自己。大众化的穿着举止令人舒适。但与众不同,独一无二,做自己,会更加美妙。
在大千世界里我是唯一。
总有一个发自内心的真实声音。相信它。
——格洛丽亚·斯泰纳姆
有时很难了解你是谁,你想要什么,你喜欢谁,你为什么喜欢他/她。答案会变,因为你在变,你在成长。
但在内心深处,你是自己。出生时,你是自己;孩提时,你是自己;现在,你还是自己。
“倾听自己的而不是别人的声音。”格特鲁德·斯泰因写道,考虑他人的建议和意见很有道理。但不要让别人的噪音淹没了发自内心的声音。不要让你在别人面前偶尔的言谈举止使自己失去自我。当你独处时,你才最像自己。
“你可能生活了一辈子,在生命结束时,了解别人超过了解自己。”飞行员绿柱石马卡姆告诫说。日夜了解自己的梦想。融入自己的选择,欣赏自己的与众不同。“越喜欢自己,就越不想装做别人。”杰米李柯蒂斯说。
每个人都可能是凡夫俗子。
附:原文
To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelongromance. —Oscar Wilde Love yourself. Love the things that make you you. Your values and talentsand memories. Your clothes, your nose, your woes. If you love yourself, you canjump into your life from a springboard of self-confidence. If you love yourself,you can say what you want to say, go where you want to go. The world can be a tough place, and some of the billions of people outthere will try to knock you down. Don't join them. Do things that make youproud, then take pride in what you do. And in who you are. Who are you anyway? What makes you you? How are you like your siblings andneighbors and friends? How are you different? If you were your own secretadmirer, what would you most admire? "My great mistake, the fault for which I can't forgive myself,"Oscar Wilde wrote, "is that one day I ceased my obstinate pursuit of myown individuality." Keep pursuing your individuality. Keep being yourself.Becoming yourself. It can be comforting to dress and act like everyone else.But it is grander to be different, to be unique, to be you. I'm the only me in the whole wide world. There is always one true inner voice. Trust it. —Gloria Steinem Sometimes it's hard to know who you are and what you want and whom youlike and why you like that person. The answers change because you're changing.Growing. But deep inside, you are you. You were you as a baby, you were you as akid, and you are you right now. "Let me listen to me and not to them," wrote Gertrude Stein. Itmakes sense to consider the advice and opinions of other people. But don't lettheir noise drown out your inner voice. And don't let the way you sometimestalk or behave in front of others make you lose sight of who you are when youare alone, when you are most you. "You can live a lifetime and, at the end of it, know more about otherpeople than you know about yourself," aviator Beryl Markham cautioned. Get acquainted withyourself. Tune in to the dreams you have by day and by night. Blend in when youchoose to, but appreciate what sets you apart. "The more I like me, theless I want to pretend to be other people," said Jamie Lee Curtis. Anybody can be one of the crowd.
