TeacherGwen 我们一起神翻译|7.7

The younger me was the acorn full of potential, but it was the older me, the already-existent oak, who was saying the whole time: "Yes—grow! Change! Evolve! Come and meet me here, where I already exist in wholeness and maturity! I need you to grow into me!" And maybe it was this present and fully actualized me who was hovering four years ago over that young married sobbing girl on the bathroom floor, and maybe it was this me who whispered lovingly into that desperate girl's ear, "Go back to bed, Liz . . ." Knowing already that everything would be OK, that everything would eventually bring us together here. Right here, right to this moment. Where I was always waiting in peace and contentment, always waiting for her to arrive and join me.   

年轻一点的我是拥有无限潜力的橡子，但是年长的我——已经长成的橡树，一直在念叨：“对！成长！改变！进化！来这儿见我，我已经发育完整成熟了！我需要你成长为我！”可能是现在这个得偿所愿的我，于4年前，游荡在那个年轻的已婚的啜泣中的女孩上方，就在浴室地板上；也可能是这个我，曾充满爱意地在那个绝望的女孩的耳边耳语，“回床睡觉吧，利兹……”明白一切已经没事了，明白一切都会最终带着我们一块儿到此。此地，此刻。我在这里一直平静、满足地等着，一直等待她抵达并加入我。
