最近這幾年,累積的情緒逐漸潰堤,開始反撲我的身心。後來我去上工作坊,看到老師,我還沒講話就開始掉淚,不知道自己哪來這麼多的情緒,老師說:「因為你終於停下來了。」
有意識的覺察,是改變的開始。
給自己獨處的時間,靜下來的時間,照顧自己的時間。
接觸薩提爾之後,我終於開始知道要先照顧自己,懂得要安頓自己,願意花點時間跟自己在一起。我努力的學習,讓自己,慢,下,來。
年過四十,終於,我不再被時間追著跑,我可以用自己的腳步,緩緩地走在自己的時區。
紐約比加州快三個小時,但這並不代表加州比較「慢」。
New York is three hours ahead of California, but that does not make California slow.
有些人22歲就大學畢業了,但卻花了五年才找到一份穩定的工作,
Someone graduated from college at 22 but waited five years before securing a job.
有些人可能25歲就成為CEO,但卻在50歲就死掉,
Someone became a CEO at 25 but died at 50.
有些人可能在50歲才當上CEO,卻活到90歲,
Someone became a CEO at 50 but lived to 90 years.
當有些人已經結了婚還有小孩,其他人可能還單身,
Someone is still single, while another is married with children.
Absolutely, everyone in this world works based on their own time zone.
你身邊的人可能看似領先你的人生,但這也沒關係,有些人可能同時也看似落後你的人生。
People around you might seem to be ahead of you. That’s total fine. Some are behind you.
Everyone is running their own race in their own time zone.
不用羨慕或是模仿他們,
Don’t envy or mock them.
他們在他們的時區,你在你自己的時區,
They are in their own time zone and you are in yours.
Life is about waiting for the right moment to react.
而每個人在人生這張試卷裡,都有不一樣的問題需要去回答。
Everyone have a different exams paper meaning different questions.
所以,放輕鬆。
So, RELAX.
你沒有落後。
You’re not LATE.
你沒有領先。
You’re not EARLY.
You are very much ON TIME, and in your TIME ZONE Destiny set up for you.
