冷靜后能否面對(duì)與承擔(dān)在意的地方（中英開示）

　　過刺激的生活，能不能安穩(wěn)？我們需要問問自心。

　　Does living an exciting life bring us peace and stability? This is a question we should always ask ourselves.

　　冷靜、長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)，跟一時(shí)沖動(dòng)，完全不一樣。我們沖動(dòng)的時(shí)候，一時(shí)情緒的時(shí)候，只會(huì)看到大方美好的一面，平靜下來的生活細(xì)節(jié)問題就根本看不見。像喝了酒一樣，仗義大方都來了，但在酒醒之后，連最小的事都可能會(huì)在意計(jì)較。

　　Keeping calm with a long-term perspective differs so much from acting impulsively.

　　When we are emotional, we can only see something great and exciting, but may be blinded to the potential problems after we calm down. It is like that, some people may seem generous when they are drunk yet fuss over trivial things when they are sober.

　　比如人相處在一起久了，往往就會(huì)在意誰(shuí)多看了誰(shuí)一眼了，誰(shuí)對(duì)誰(shuí)好了，誰(shuí)跟誰(shuí)打招呼了……這些很小很小的事都會(huì)在意計(jì)較。

　　For instance, when people get along with each other for a while, they might start to care about trifles, which may trigger conflicts, jealousy, or frustration.

　　要是一味激情浪漫的生活，就像電影里那樣，但當(dāng)面對(duì)現(xiàn)實(shí)生活的平淡瑣碎時(shí)就會(huì)感到無(wú)味、苦、不安穩(wěn)，人就會(huì)受不了這種落差。

　　If we blindly live a passionate and romantic life just like in the movies, we will not be able to accept the gap when we face the reality, and the life will get boring, painful and unstable.

　　實(shí)際我們最終面臨的都是要解決自己日常生活中的問題與習(xí)慣。長(zhǎng)久地看、短期地看、熱惱地看、冷靜地看，多角度地去觀察后，再去做事情就會(huì)如實(shí)下來。

　　Eventually, it is all about facing and solving our own problems and habits in our daily life. If we can observe these problems from different perspectives, long-term or short-term, emotionally or calmly, things will be dealt with properly.

　　冷靜后的生活會(huì)出現(xiàn)一些在意的地方，一定要問問這些在意的地方自己能否面對(duì)與承擔(dān)，那就會(huì)給我們帶來自覺的機(jī)會(huì)與利益。

　　When we calm down, we will find the spots that we really are concerned about. We should ask ourselves if we can afford the consequences or not, which leads to self-awareness.
