平衡 Balance

生活的状态取决于我们让环境侵入多大程度的自己：过低的程度让人漠不关心、肤浅薄情；过高的程度让人支离破碎、缄默独行。

The status of life depends on to what extent do we let the elements erode us: an extent too low leads to indifference and shallowness; an extent too high breeds brokenness, mutism and loneliness.

这种悲剧纯粹是因为我们目所能及的现实中的背叛与私欲不能匹配我们仍是孩童时的梦幻般的信任与柔情。

The reason for such tragedy is purely that the betrayal and selfishness in a foreseeable reality don't match the dreamly credulity and tenderness we brought as children. 

我是在现实中搁浅的灵魂之一，一直在迷雾与荒芜里探求真理的光芒，却没能发现从一开始过量的雾霭就浸染了我的心智，他们长久以来不断地占据我的潜意识，编织成具有警示意义的现实的网：他们注视着我，限制着我，指责着我，引诱着我。

I am one of the souls that are stranded in such reality, constantly searching for the light of truth in the mist and barren. However, I've failed to realize the massive overdose of fog has been occupying my subconscious mind from the very beginning, weaving a web of cautionary notes: they watch me, limit me, accuse me and seduce me. 

他们也教育着我：在无数次的失败中，他们破除了不切实际的幻想，辨晰了不置可否的立场。

But they also educate me: amid the numerous failures, they crush and remove unpractical fantasies, and differentiate and clarify noncommittal standing grounds. 

他们也成就了我：经受住了多少五花八门的折磨，就得到了多少种应对苦难的手段，就能够在看似五彩斑斓实则千人一面的生活中拥有多大程度的自由。也正因此，我才在一定程度上成长为了真正的我。

They help me in being me: the toture of many varieties equals the means of many coping skills, which ensures a how much degree of freedom can be attained during a seemingly colourful however invariant lifetime. As such, give or take, I have become the true me.
