致想放棄失落夢想的女孩
We all know the feeling when we first feel that spark of a fiery dream inside our souls. It completely takes over your life and opens up your eyes to new horizons beyond your imagination - but what happens when you start to feel that fire dying out? What happens when you start to feel another one sparking? Do you ignore the call and frustrate your soul, or do you choose to be brave and let the new dream in?
Honing your dream to perfection leads to disappointment
完美化你的夢想會導致失落Losing a dream is never easy, you pour your heart and soul out into it, honing it to perfection and to the idea you had in mind. It is no wonder that when it dissipates or completely disappears that you find yourself facing the different stages of loss: denial, anger, depression, bargaining and eventually acceptance (or in my case going through all these stages a few times around). However - despite what society might want you to believe - there is absolutely nothing wrong with a dream that changes.
放棄夢想從不簡單，你爲它傾注了全部的心血，想讓它趨於完美，成爲你心中所想的樣子。當夢想漸漸消逝或者毫無蹤影時，無疑你將會發現自己面臨放棄的不同階段：否認，憤怒，沮喪，討價還價，到最終妥協（或者像我，三番五次經歷所有這些階段）。然而，不管社會想讓你相信什麼，改變夢想是無可非議的。
Do not fret over lost time
不要苦惱逝去的光陰If your dream came true, that's great. If it didn't and you still feel yourself jumping up and down with excitement by the thought of it, go for it! But if you are like me and you have slowly felt it moving into a new direction, don't fret over the time you spent on your old dream - it made you stronger and wiser. It shaped you into the person you are at this moment. And it is to you that I am talking to today.
如果你實現了夢想，那再好不過了；如果沒有，但當你想到它時，心仍會激動得上躥下跳，那麼就去放手追逐吧！但如果你像我一樣，慢慢感受到了新夢想的呼喚，那麼就不要苦惱那些因追逐舊夢想而逝去的光陰，它會讓你變得更強大、更有智慧。它塑造了當下的你，而我正是在與當下的你對話。Loss is a part of life
失去是生活中不可或缺的部分Let's be frank: it is not an easy task losing something that was once the center of your universe - the thing you based all your decision on. However, it is possible to move on - but you have to be willing to accept the loss, the fear of rejection by others, and most importantly, the fear of change. First of all, we have to remember that loss is a part of life. It will always be there and the sooner we learn to deal with it, the stronger and the more resilient we will be able to be, perhaps even inspiring others in the process too.
開誠佈公的說：放棄一件曾是你世界中心的事情絕不容易，那件事情曾是你所有決定的基礎。然而，事情仍是有可能繼續往下進行的，但是你必須甘願接受損失，接受對被拒絕的恐懼，最重要的是，接受對變化的恐懼。首先，我們要銘記失去也是生活的一部分。它總是在那裏，我們越快學會如何處理它，我們就能夠變得越強大，適應力也會越強，我們可能甚至會去激勵這個過程中的其他人。
