拿回对自己的控制感(反裤衩阵地)
一切都太不容易了:减掉一斤肉、全身心投入一整天工作、彻底戒掉一个坏习惯、从心里完全拿走一个人……都他妈太不容易了。但,无论多不容易,我们都要去做这些事:尽力抽掉身体以及心理的负担,断绝让我们自我感觉糟糕的习惯、念头、人与事。
Nothing is easy—losing a pound of flesh, devoting to work throughout a day, kicking a bad habit, or clearing a person away from your heart. Nothing is fucking easy. However, no matter how hard it is, we must do something to relieve ourselves from those physical and psychological burdens and abandon habits, thinking, people and things that make us feel awful.
太多的伤心与沮丧,都是因为我们失去了对自己的控制感。才会有那种“我也就这样了”、“我再也不会幸福了”的错觉。所以,要始终做起来,哪怕今天只快走了半小时、哪怕今天只写了几百个字翻了十几页书,哪怕今天只少吃了一包零食、哪怕今天只做到了不刷朋友圈不再关注某人的动态——亲爱的你,请持续做这些并不容易的事,拿回你对自己的控制感,你就拿回了生活、拿回了乐观。
We are depressed and frustrated because we lose control of ourselves, which make us have illusions like "I'll no longer be better," "I won't get happiness." We must take action, even small ones like walking for half an hour, reading several pages and writing several hundreds of words, or refraining yourself from following someone's WeChat Moments. Dear, it's not easy to do these things persistently. As long as you take back the control of yourself, you might take back your life and hope.
