The Butterfly
蝴蝶
I had had it with life. My career was unexciting. My marriage was on the rocks and I didn't like the direction my figure was going.I felt life was boring and meaningless.
我受够了这样的生活，我的生活枯燥乏味，我的婚姻濒临破裂，我不喜欢渐渐走样的身材，我觉得生活既无聊又没意义。
One day, I saw a butterfly trying to escape from my home. It kept flying into the window. Clearly, it thought that was its way out. Instead of finding 1 freedom, it became tired and ended up stuck in a spider's web. I learned 2 something from that butterfly. I decided 3 to take charge of my life. I wrote a list with different headings: marriage-work-me. Under them, I listed what I didn't like.
有天，我看到一只蝴蝶打算从家里逃脱，它飞啊飞一直撞向窗户，显然它认为那是出口。可是非但没有获得自由，还累得困在蜘蛛网间。我从蝴蝶身上学到一些事，我决定对生活负责。我写了张列有不同标题的清单，包括婚姻、工作和我自己，在底下我列出讨厌的事情。
Each day when I woke up, I picked something from the list. Throughout the day, I learned to love it, got rid of it or changed it. It took almost a year but, eventually, I had changed everything on the list.
每天早上起床，我会从清单挑选其中一样，并在当天学会喜欢、摆脱或改变这件事。我花了将近一年的时间，最后终于改变了清单上的所有事。
I realized, like the butterfly, I just kept going in the same direction. I simply took a different direction and dealt with life one step at a time.
我了解我过去就像那只蝴蝶，一直往相同方向前进；其实我只需要换个方向，一次解决生活上的一个课题。
