West with the night¶

有感于小伙伴要离开，想起<<夜航西飞>>的一段话。

愿大家都有一个美好的未来。

原文¶

某个有愤世嫉俗倾向的人曾说过：“我们活着，什么都没学到。” 然而，我确实学到了些 东西。

我学会了如果你必须离开一个地方，一个你曾经住过、爱过、深埋着所有过往的地方，无 论以何种方式离开，都不要慢慢离开，要尽你所能决绝地离开，永远不要回头，也永远不 要相信过去的时光才更好，因为它们已经消亡。过去的岁月看来安全无害，能被轻易跨 越，而未来藏在迷雾之中，隔着距离，看来叫人胆怯。但当你踏足其中，就会云开雾散。 我学会了这一点，但就像所有人一样，待到学会，为时太晚。

English version¶

SOMEBODY WITH A FLAIR for small cynicism once said, ‘We live and do not learn’. But I have learned some things.

I have learned that if you must leave a place that you have lived in and loved and where all your yesterdays are buried deep — leave it any way except a slow way, leave it the fastest way you can. Never turn back and never believe that an hour you remember is a better hour because it is dead. Passed years seem safe ones, vanquished ones, while the future lives in a cloud, formidable from a distance. The cloud clears as you enter it. I have learned this, but like everyone, I learned it late.
