And neither did most of the others.在生活的坎坷中，我慢慢看清了，原来曾经的我并没有拥有自己的生活，就和很多人一样。I used to be so restless and shallow. I was always satisfied with what things seem to be at first sight. And I was seldom able to calm down and reflect on the present moment.从前的我，浮躁又肤浅，总是只满足于生活最表面的东西，并且很少能冷静下来认清此时此刻。But what it really means to own your own life is that you put your heart into the present moment.然而，真正的拥有，是需要你把心安在当下的。Otherwise you're nothing but just a passenger who are forced to drive through this highway that we call life. You don't own it. And you can't enjoy it.否则，你只是在生活这条快车道上被迫前行的一个匆匆旅者，你并不拥有它，也没法享受它。Now, I choose to live my life calmly without restlessness, mockery or complaints.现在，我选择静静地生活，不浮躁、不嘲笑，也不埋怨。Being like this, I suddenly discovered that my vision had become clearer.在这种状态里，我突然发现自己的视线变清晰了。Many problems that troubled me before are now solved.从前困扰我的很多难题，现在都有了答案。I'm grateful that I made such a decision. In the past I can only dream what kind of a life that I can live. But now I can live this life as I wanted.我感谢自己做出了这样的决定，因为，从前我只能做自己的梦，而现在我能够走自己的路美文阅读2 不要瞧不起稳定的生活 Chances are high that youve heard such things:你应该听过这样的论断吧：Dont indulge yourself in safety. Thats like boiling a frog in warm water. It will slowly kill you and you wont even notice it.不要贪图安逸的环境，那是温水煮青蛙，会在不知不觉中杀死你；You should get out of your comfort zone. Go for some challenges. Only by doing that can you grow stronger.走出自己的舒适区，去接受挑战，这样才能变强；You can only really learn whats useful when you are facing immediate crisis. Nobody grows in a stable environment.人只有在危机之中才能学到真正有用的东西，在稳定的环境中是得不到成长的。And I only have one sentence for all these soup:对于这些鸡汤，我只想说一句话：Nonsense.什么也不是。Dont let yourself be fooled by those them.不要被它们冲昏了头脑。And dont despise a stable life.不要瞧不起稳定的生活。This balanced state of life is a rare treasure.这种平衡的生活状态是一种非常珍贵的资源。So many young people fight like hell in those major companies not because they enjoy the thrill of challenges but because they want to make such balance for themselves.多少年轻人在大公司里艰难求生，并不是在享受竞争的刺激，而是恳望能达到这样的平衡。The ultimate skill for survival has never been the spirit of adventure or the ability to endure suffering.生存所需要的基本技能从来就不是冒险精神，也不是什么吃苦的能力；It is the ability of managing risks.而是管理风险的能力。Thats what you should learn.这才是你该学的美文阅读3 失败才是真正的财富Have you ever failed?你曾经失败过吗？If you haven't, I suggest you try some.如果你没有，那我建议你去尝试一下。I have failed, many times.我失败过，太多次了。And some of these failures were even painful.而这些失败之中有一些是很惨痛的。But I cherish them more than I cherish my success.但我珍惜它们，更甚于我珍惜我的成功。Success sometimes makes you numb .成功有时候会让你麻木。But failures make you awake. Failures are cleansing.但失败则会让你清醒。失败让你觉得神清气爽。Failing is not necessarily losing. Neither does a failure make you a loser.失败并不一定意味着输。失败了，也并不代表你就是个失败者。Failing is just the name we give to the state you stay in until you succeed.我们只是用失败来称呼成功之前的那种状态而已。A failure is a precious opportunity to learn new things.一次失败是一次学习新东西的好机会。And trust me. You always rememeber what you learn in failures better than those you learn in success.而且，相信我。你永远会把失败中所学的东西记得比成功中所学的东西更牢固。Failing doesn't mean you lost something forever. It only means that you didn't get it yet and you have to find another way to get it.一次失败并不意味着你就永远失去了什么。它只是意味着你现在还没得到它，而你需要想另一个办法去得到它。And isn't that a treasure? A new direction to think.而这难道不是一份宝藏吗？一个全新的思考方向。Don't pray for easy success. That' a curse.请不要祈求唾手可得的成功。那是一种诅咒。Pray for hard failure.去祈求重大的失败吧。As long as it doesn't kill you, it will definitely make you stronger.只要它没能将你杀死，那它必将使你更强大。美文阅读4 正能量比负能量更可怕The truth is that more than half of a persons life does not usually go as we wish. 事实是，人生中的很大一部分都是不如意的。Those who tries so hard to appear positive are usually those who feel totally not secured deep down in their hearts.那些拼命展现着正能量的人，其实往往是心理很没底的人。This is just like that those who put on real efforts to show people how rich they are are usually not the real rich people. Or their wealth and social status are usually neither stable nor recognized.这就好像那些拼命炫富的人，要么是其实没什么钱，要么就是自己的财富和身份都极其不稳定、不被认可。These weird behaviors all come from a defensive mechanism that roots in humans intuition. This mechanism is called denial.这种古怪的行为，是一种根植于人类本能中的防御机制否认。When feeling threatened by something, most peoples first action would be to deny the existence of the threats.如果觉得有什么东西威胁到了自己，很多人的第一反应就是去否定它的存在。Its like when you lack some ability but cant bear to admit that you lack it, the most efficient solution you can come up with would be to deny the righteousness of this ability without any reason.这就比如当你缺乏某种能力、却又不甘心承认自己弱小时，最便捷的解决方案就是直接否认这种能力的正当性。This is totally not healthy.而这样的做法是非常不健康的。Its harmful to let any single emotion dominate ones mind for too long, even if its a positive emotion.让任何一种情绪来长期主导一个人，都是有害的，即使这是正面的情绪也一样。What you truly need is the diversity of emotions.一个正常人真正需要的，是情绪的多样性。We need those positive emotions, because they drive us forward when we need to.我们需要那些正面的情绪，他们能在我们前进的时候给我们动力。But we also need to have the liberty to express those negative emotions, because they are part of who we are. They are our natural needs.但我们也同样需要把那些负面的情绪表达出来，因为它们本身就是我们的一部分，是我们最正常不过的需求。Suppressing them by force would only push us farther away on the way of alienation and eventually turn us into monsters which even we ourselves cannot recognize.强行压制它们，只会让我们异化得越来越严重，最终变成连自己都不认识的怪物。But sadly, the blue side of life has been usually buried too deep.然而，可悲的是，人生里的不如意，十有八九都被掩盖了。
