KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Telling us to obey instinct is like telling us to obey 'people.' People say different things: so do instincts. Our instincts are at war... Each instinct, if you listen to it, will claim to be gratified at the expense of the rest.

Every day each of us wakes up, reaches into drawers and closets, pulls out a costume for the day and proceeds to dress in a style that can only be called preposterous.
每天我们每个人醒来，把手伸进抽屉和壁橱里，拿出当天要穿的衣服，然后开始穿那种只能被称为荒谬的风格。
When we forgive evil we do not excuse it, we do not tolerate it, we do not smother it. We look the evil full in the face, call it what it is, let its horror shock and stun and enrage us, and only then do we forgive it.

留给我们的最冒险的事情之一就是上床睡觉。因为没有人能阻止我们的梦想。
When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand.
当我们诚实地问自己生命中谁对我们最重要时，我们常常发现，是那些人，他们没有给出建议、解决方案或治愈方法，而是选择与我们分享痛苦，用温暖而温柔的手触摸我们的伤口。
