Because we don’t know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well,


(资料图片仅供参考)

yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number, really.

How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood,

some afternoon that’s so deeply a part of your being that you can’t even conceive of your life without it?

Perhaps four or five times more, perhaps not even that.

How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless                                                                                                                                  

<The Sheltering Sky>

life and experiences are ephemeral.

We tend to think of life as endlessly expansive in the moment because we don't know when we will die.

But in reality, everything in life is limited and fleeting. Be in full awareness of the impermanence of all things.

因为我们不知道自己何时会死去,我们总是把生命视为取之不尽的深井,

而实际上,任何事件的发生频率都很有限,且十分稀少。

你还会记起你童年的某个下午多少次呢?

那段记忆也许深烙于你的生命,以至于你无法想象,没有它,你的生活会是什么样子?

也许四五次,或许更少。

你还会看到满月升起多少次呢?

或许二十次。但看上去无穷无尽。

——《遮蔽的天空》

生命与经历看似无限延展,或许只因不知何时消逝。
