What's in your backpack?How much does your weight?Imagine for a second that you're carrying a backpack.I want you to feel the straps on your shoulders.Feel them?Now I want you to pack it with all the stuff that you have in your life.Start with the little things,the things on shelves and in the drawers,the knick-knacks,the collectibles.Feel the weight as that adds up.Then you start adding larger stuff,clothes,table-top appliances,lamps,linens,your TV.The backpack should be getting pretty heavy now.And you go bigger.Your couch,bed,your kitchen table.Stuff it all in there.Your car,get in there;your home,whether it's a studio apartment or a two-bedroom house,I want you to stuff it all into that backpack.Now try to walk.It's kind of hard,isn's it?This is what we do to ourselves on a daily basis.We weight ourselves down until we can't even move.And make no mistake,moving is living.Now I'm gonna set that backpack on fire.What do you want to take out of it?Photos?Photos are for people who can't remember.Drink some gingo and let the photo burn.In fact,let everything burn and imagine,waking up tomorrow with nothing,it's kind of exhilarating,isn't it?This is how I start every day of my life.
你的生活究竟有多重?想象一下你正背着一个背包,感受一下你肩上的压力,感觉到了吗?现在把你生活中所有的东西都装进去。先从小的东西开始, 架子上抽屉里的小玩意,小摆设,收藏品,感受一下这些给你带来的压力。然后是大件的,衣服,餐具,灯,家纺和电视。背包应该已经很重了吧?还有更大的呢, 沙发,床,餐桌。所有东西都塞进去,车也塞进去,房子,不论是一居室,还是两室的公寓,统统塞到背包里。现在背着它走两步,有点困难,不是吗?这就是我们 每天都在做的事情。我们不堪重负无法前进。如果我没弄错,只有向前才是生活。现在我要烧了这个包。你想把什么拿出来?照片?有遗忘症的人才需要照片。喝点 银杏酒烧了照片吧。实际上如果把它们全烧了,想象一下明早一无所有,非常让人愉快,不是吗?我就是这样开始我的每一天。
Now this's gonna be little difficult,so stay with me.You have a new backpack. Only this time,I want you to fill it with people.Start with casual acquaintances,friends of friends,folks around the office and then you move into the people you trust with,your most secrets,your cousins,your aunts,your uncles,your brother,your sisters,your parents and finally your husband,wife,your boyfriend,your girlfriend.And get them into the backpack.Don't worry.I'm not gonna ask you to light it on fire.Feel the weight of that bag.Make no mistake,your relationship is the heaviest components in your life.Do you feel the straps cutting into your shoulders?All those negotiations and arguments and secrets and compromises,you don't need to carry it all that weight.Why don't you set that bag down?Some animals were meant to carry each other,to live symbiotically of a lifetime.,star-crossed lovers,monogamous swans.We are not those animals.Slower we move,the faster we die.We are not swans.We are sharks.
现在是有点困难,所以和我一起。你有了一个新的背包,这一次我想让你用人去填满它。从随意偶遇开始,朋友的朋友,办公室周围的伙计们,然后 回到那些你最信任的人,你的兄弟姐妹父母,最后你的丈夫妻子,男女朋友,把他们放进包里,别担心,我不会让你放火烧了它。感受背包的重量。没错的话,你们 的关系,是你们生活中最重的组成部分。感受到背包肩带深嵌在你的肩膀里吗?所有的妥协,争辩,秘密以及责任。你并不用承担所有的负担。为什么不放下你的 包?有些动物打算一直背着彼此,一起过一辈子,时运不济的爱人,终生相伴的天鹅。我们不是这种动物。我们行动越慢,死的越快。我们不是天鹅。我们是鲨鱼。

Startwith casual acquaintances, friends of friends, folks around theoffice. And then u move into the people u trust with your mostintimate secrets-Your cousins, your aunts, your uncles, youtbrothers, your sisters, your parents, and finally your husband,your wife, your boyfriend or your girlfriend. You get them intothat backpack. Don't worry. I'm not gonna ask you to light it onfire. Feel the weight of that bag. Make no mistake, yourrelationship are the heaviest components in your life.

--Nope.

--Starting when I was 12, we moved each of my grandparents into anursing facility. My parents went the same way. Make no mistake, weall die alone. Now, those cult members in San Diego, with thekool-aid and the sneakers...they didn't die alone. I'm just sayingthere are options.
--Is the bag empty because u hate people orbecauseu hate the baggage they come alongwith?
--I don't hate people. I'm not exactly a hermit.
--U just don't want to be tied down with the whole responsibilitything.
--I don't know what originally sparked the backpack. Probablyneeded to be alone. Recently, I've been thinking that I needed tobe empty the backpack before I know what to put back in it.
--How can u not think about that? How does it noteven cross ur mind that you might want a future with someone?
--It's simple. U know that moment when u look into somebody's eyesand u can feel them staring into your soul and the whole world goesquiet just for a second?
--Yes.
--Right. Well, I don't.
......
--Don't u think it's worth giving her a chance?
--A chance for what?
--A chance at something real.
--Natalie, your definition of real will evolve as u getolder.
--Can u stop condescending for one second or is it a principle ofyour bullshit philosophy? The isolation, the travelling, is thatsupposed to be charming?
--No, it's simply a life choice.
--It's a cocoon of self-banishment.
--Wow,big words.
--You have set up a way of life that basically makes it impossiblefor you to have any kind of human connection. And now, this womancomes along and somehow runs the gauntlet of your ridiculous lifechoice, and comes out on the other end smiling just u can call her"casual"? I need to grow up? U are a 12-year-old.
--Well, last night I was just kinda laying in bed,and I couldn’t get to sleep. so I started thinking bout the weddingand the ceremony, andabout our buying ahouse, and moving in together, and having a kid, and having anotherkid and then Christmas and Thanksgiving and Springbreak. Going tofootball games, and then all of a sudden, they'regraduating.They’re getting jobs, and getting married. and uknow,I’m a grandparent, and then I am retired, I’m loosing my hair,getting fat, and then the next thing, you know, I’m dead. I’m just,like...I can’t stop from thinking—what’s the point? I mean, What isthe point?
--The point?
--Yeah, what am I starting here?--Jim, it's...marriage, it’s one ofthe most beautiful things on earth, it’s what er...what peopleaspire to. U never got married.
--That’s true.
--I mean, You never even tried. That’s hard to defying try.
--I don’t know. It’s just……you seem happier than all my marriedfriends.
--Well, Jim, I’m not going to lie to u. Marriage can be a pain inthe ass. And you’re kind of right, this all is just stuff thatleads to your eventual demise.
--Yes.
--And we’re all running clocks, and they can’t be slowed down orpaused, and we all end up in the same place. There’s nopoint.
-- There Is no point. That’s what I’m saying.
--You know, I’m not normally the guy u would talk to about stufflike this. If you think about it, your favourite memories, the mostimportant moments in your life, were you alone?
--No, I guess not.
--Think a bit of it, last night, the night before your wedding whenall the shit was swirling around in your head, weren’t you guyssleeping in seperate bedrooms?
--Yeah, Julie went back to the apartment, and I was just by myselfin the honeymoon suite.
--Kinda lonely, huh?
--Yes, pretty lonely.
--Life is better with company.
--Yeah……
--Everybody needs a co-pilot.
--That was a nice touch.
--Thanks.
--I thought I was a part of your real life.
--I thought we signed up for the same thing.
--Try and help me understand exactly what it is that u signed upfor.
--I thought our relationship was perfectly clear. I mean u are anescape, you are a break from ournormallives, you're a parenthesis.
--I am a parenthesis?
--I mean...what do u want? Tell me what u want...... U don't evenknow what u want. Ryan, I'm a grown-up, ok? So if u would like tosee me again, then...then give me a call. OK?
--So where are u from?
--I am from here.
I would say, you know, uh...without my friends and myfamily, I wouldn't have made it.
It would have been a lot tougher if I would had to make it on myown.
When I wake up in the morning and I look over and I see my wife,that gives me the sense of purpose.
It's not all about the money, money can keep your warm. It paysyour heating bills, it can buy you a blanket. But it doesn't keep uas warm as when my husband holds me.
Let me get up. Let me get out. Let me find something. So my kidsare my purpose. My family.
Tonight most people will be welcomed home by jumpingdogs and squealing kids. Their spouses will ask about their day andtonight they'll sleep. The stars will wheel forth from theirdaytime hiding places. The stars will wheel forth from theirdaytime hiding places. And one of those lights, slightly brighterthan the rest, will be my wing tip passing over.
very useful! 感谢分享。
