爱上一个能给你正能量的人
There's one trait that I continuously find myself coming back to when it comes to dating: inspiration. There's one thing I need from you—one thing I really, truly value: I need you to inspire me.
约会时,我发现自己会不断审视一种品质——拥有正能量。我需要从你那里获得一件东西,一件我真正看重的东西:你的激励。
Inspiration is in its simplest form, really. I want you to inspire me to be a better person. To push myself—in my career, in my education, in my beliefs, culture, and values. I want you to inspire me to try things I always said I wouldn't. To read books I never thought I'd like, to go to a place I never wanted to visit, to eat a food I always swore off. I want you to inspire me to be better. Every day. Because although self-motivation is important, sometimes our steam just runs out. Sometimes we need a person running alongside us, telling us we can keep going, that we can cross that finish line.
传递正能量,再简单不过。我希望你激励我成为更好的人:无论在事业、教育,还是信仰、文化和价值观上,都不断推动自己向前。我希望你鼓励我去尝试我总说不 想尝试的各种事情:去阅读我从不认为自己愿意涉猎的书籍,去造访那些我未曾想去的地方,去品尝我总是忌讳的食物。我希望受到你的激励,让自己变得一天比一 天好,因为尽管自我激励很重要,但我们有时也会精疲力竭。有时,我们需要一个人在身边陪跑,为我们助威加油,鼓励我们坚持跑过终点线。
And I want to inspire you, too. I want to be able to push you. To stretch your limits and make you step outside of your comfort zone. Because inspiration is like a weed when you have the right amount. It grows wildly and quickly, and spreads throughout the surface. When it works, when it really works, we feed off of each other. We make each other better. We consistently try new things and pursue higher heights. That's inspirational.
我也希望激励你,我希望能推动你向前,让你挑战自己的极限,走出舒适区。因为当你拥有了足够的正能量,它就会像野草,急切而迅速地生长,冒出地面,四处蔓延。当正能量释放的那一刻,真正释放时,我们相互给予,让彼此变得更好。我们不断尝试新的事物,攀登新的高度。这是多么令人振奋!
Inspiration makes us better. Inspiration makes us want to do something. It moves our emotions, our intellect, our behavior. And is that not what every relationship needs? We need to be influenced to feel happiness and love, influenced to deeply care for someone other than ourselves, influenced to better ourselves while we better those around us. Quite frankly, that sounds pretty healthy to me.
正能量让我们日臻完美,让我们干劲十足。它拨动我们的情感,激发我们的智力,调整我们的行为。这难道不正是每一段恋情所需要的吗?我们需要受到感染,去感受幸福和爱情,深爱某人胜过爱自己,完善自我并让周边的人更好。坦率地说,我认为这才是积极健康的恋爱。
So that's all I want. And it encompasses so very, very, much, that one little word. Inspiration. 11 letters, 4 syllables, and a different meaning for every person walking this earth. But there's someone out there—maybe you've already found them or maybe you're still looking—but there's someone walking around with a bottle of inspiration ready to swirl and mix with your own. To create that perfect recipe that leaves us with a sweet taste in our mouth and a warm feeling in our heart.
我想要的就是这个——正能量——字眼简单,蕴藉隽永。三个字,一个词,每个人有每个人的理解。但某人就在那里,你或许已经找到,抑或还在寻觅,但某人正四处徜徉,携带一瓶正能量,准备和你的正能量搅拌交融,调和出完美的口味,让我们唇齿留香,情暖心涧。
Fill your jar. Screw that lid on tight. And unleash that beauty when you're good and ready.
注满你的瓶罐,拧紧瓶盖吧!当满满的正能量准备就绪,再倾倒出那份美丽。
