在我20岁出头时,我总是提不起勇气去做些什么事,经常觉得空虚和失落。有一年夏天,我碰巧去看望我舅舅。他是哈佛大学癌症研究所的负责人,但他是一个非常低调和谦逊的人。他从来不会告诉我应该怎么生活。但当我跟他说我的感受时,他告诉我,无论你选择做什么或者想过什么样的生活,这都无所谓,这是你自己的选择。
In my early 20s, there weren’t many things in my life that I did with courage. By my mid-20s, I was often feeling empty and lost. One summer, I happened to visit my uncle. He did cancer research at Harvard, but was one of the most humble, down-to-earth people I knew. He never tried to tell me how I should live my life. But when I told him how I felt, he told me that it didn’t matter what I choose to do, or how I wanted to live my life. That was entirely up to me.
但无论你做什么,都要努力为你重视的事情奋斗。怀着激情和目标,去追求并从事那些值得去做的事。去体验和享受更多事情。为你做事的方式感到自豪,而不只是事情本身。他告诉我:“随着年龄的增长,会有很多事情需要你“妥协”,会有很多你想做,但后悔没有去做的事。”
But whatever I did, to fight for what was important to me. To pursue and do things that I felt were worthy of my talent and opportunities. To experience and enjoy as much as I can. To have passion and purpose. And to be proud of not just what I do, but how I do them. He told me, “When you get older, there will be plenty of time to ‘settle’ for things in your life. And for you to think about all the things you wish you did, but regret not doing.”
所以,无论你是否是90后,我都会像我舅舅鼓励我那样去鼓励你,去追求你的生活。特别是当你还年轻的时候,Carpe Diem!人生苦短,只争朝夕!我希望这听起来不会过于理想化,我很庆幸当时听了我舅舅的话。根据我的个人经验,最终还是要选择让你快乐的方式去生活。
So whether you’re a post-90s or not, I’ll just encourage you to pursue your life in the same way that my uncle encouraged me to pursue mine. And especially if you’re young, Carpe Diem! Seize the day! I hope that doesn’t sound too idealistic. Because I’m so glad I listened to my uncle. Based on my own personal experience, it’s how you live a life that you will ultimately feel good about.
