1. My whole life, when I was askedwhere are you from, I'd always answer with my hometown. But looking back now, I realize that's not quite right, because, by my reasoning, I'm from everywhere I've ever been. I'm from everythingI've ever done. I'm from everythingI've ever experienced, and from everyone I've ever met. I'm from a whole lifetime, and that really is quite a remarkable place.
2. It takes looking back at so manyexperiences to see how far you've come. Because some days, you'renot sure of your next move or what opportunities could be around the corner. And on these days, be grateful that we really do learn and grow each day. Howeversmall it may be, and whether we realize it or not, we're always discovering things about ourselves, about others, about theworld around us.
3. So don't rush your journey. Don’t measure progress in hours and days. Lean in and enjoy the ride, and have it take you where you want to go.
在我的一生中,当有人问我你来自哪里时,我总是用我的家乡来回答。但现在回想起来,我意识到这并不完全正确,根据我的推理,我来自我去过的所有地方,我来自我做过的所有事情。我来自我经历过的一切,我来自我遇到的每一个人。我来自一个完整的人生,那真的是一个非常了不起的地方。
回顾这么多的经历,才知道自己走了多远。因为有些日子,你不确定自己的下一步行动,也不知道转角会有什么机会。在这些日子里,感谢我们真的每天都在学习和成长。无论多么微小,无论我们是否意识到,我们总会发现关于自己、关于他人、关于我们周围的世界的东西。
所以不要匆忙。不要用几小时和几天来衡量进步。向前一步,享受这段旅程,让它带你去你想去的地方。
