變好的從來不是生活，而是你自己

A person is just like a Russian matryoshka doll with different age versions nested inside. Each layer is a part of oneself.

—At the age of 48， there is still the 9-year-old you， the 14-year-old you， the 22-year-old you， and the 35-year-old you living inside your heart. Perhaps， you look like a 48-year-old in the eyes of others， but sometimes you view the world from the perspective of the 9-year-old you

人就像一個重疊著不同年齡的俄羅斯套娃，每一層都是自己的一部分。

——48歲的你，內心依然住著9歲的你、14歲的你、22歲的你，還有35歲的你。或許，在別人眼中，你是48歲的模樣，但有時候，你會用9歲的視角去看這個世界

If you want to run， just go and run. You don’t need someone to accompany you specifically. As long as you keep running， one day， people who share your interests will find you.

—This principle not only applies to running but also to many things in life

你想跑步的話就去跑，不需要特地找人陪你。只要你一直跑下去，總有一天和你志趣相投的人會找到你。

——這個道理不僅適用于跑步，還適用于人生的許多事情

No matter what we are doing， we will suddenly pick up our phones and browse for a while.

—This is the state of our lives after we are controlled by our phones

不管正在做什么事，我們都會突然拿起手機瀏覽一陣子。

——被手機控制的我們的生活狀態

First of all， I’m sleepy， and secondly， I’m not quite willing to go to sleep.

—There are two things that make people especially torn in bed at night

首先我想睡覺，其次我不舍得去睡覺。

——晚上躺在床上，有兩件事讓人特別糾結"
