2013-10-07来源:thoughtcatalog
13. Your own doctor, with whom you feel comfortable discussing your medical needs and issues, and the ability to receive the medication/birth control/whatever you want or need without anybody else having to know about it.
你自己的医生。你可以很舒服地和他讨论你的医疗需求和问题,能进行药物治疗、节育、或任何你想要的治疗,而无需让别人知道。

14. Go-to clothing staples that are shining little emblems of who you really are, of which were chosen and bought not because they were a trend but because they fit in more ways than just size.
能体现出自己品味的常用的衣服店,选择并买衣服,不是因为是流行趋势,而是因为它们不仅仅尺寸合适,而且能体现自我。

15. A list of things you’d like to do in your life, none of which involves attaining masses of wealth or other means of success that are fleeting and shallow.
有生之年你想做的事情清单,其中不包括获得巨额财产或其他短暂而肤浅的事情。

16. A basic opinion/belief regarding religion or spirituality, even if it’s that you’re researching options or that you don’t believe in anything at all. Having a stance, regardless of what it is, is what’s important.
关于宗教或精神信仰的基本观点,即便是你正在研究或你是无神论者。拥有立场,无论这个立场是什么,重要的是拥有它。

17. Measuring cups, a pot deep enough to boil water in, a spatula, a frying pan and other basic cooking materials that virtually every meal that isn’t Easy Mac or cereal requires.
量杯、一口足够深可以让水沸腾的锅、一个锅铲、一个平底锅和其他基本的烹调用具,这样就不用每顿饭都吃通心面或麦片了。

18. A signature recipe, plates for more than just two people to eat with, a bottle opener and the knowledge of where they sell the best wine in the area.
一份有特色的食谱、两人以上可用的碟子、开瓶器,并知道本地哪里有卖最好的红酒。

19. A simple luxury that you fund yourself, and the realization and acknowledgement that said thing is indeed a luxury.
自己攒钱买的一件简单的奢侈品,以及对这件东西是奢侈品的基本认知。

20. The ability to use personal/vacation days without feeling guilty, and the knowledge of how they’d most effectively be used for one’s mental, physical or emotional benefit.
能自己度假而不感到内疚,知道这样对你的精神、身体或情感来说有很多益处。

21. A way to have fun again.
玩得开心的方法。

22. To get rid of scales and stop measuring lives by numbers: salaries, houses owned, things accomplished, degrees hanging on the wall, etc. Because usually, nothing really worth having can be measured numerically.
摆脱计量的能力,不再用数字来衡量生活:薪水、房子的数量、完成的事情、挂在墙上的学位证等。因为通常情况下,值得拥有的东西没什么能用数字来衡量。

23. To have eaten a meal, seen a movie, taken a walk and fallen asleep by yourself– and to have been content, if not happy, with doing so.
自己吃顿饭、看场电影、散散步、熟睡——如果不开心的话,这样做你会安心。

24. The ability to put things in perspective, to let go when it’s appropriate, fight harder when it’s necessary, listen to people rather than just hear them, and consider opinions that aren’t congruent with your own.
能正确地看待事物、在适当的时刻放手、必要的时候努力抗争,倾听别人而不只是听他们说,考虑和自己想法不同的意见。

25. To have given yourself to someone, and not expected anything in return.
对别人付出,并不期望任何回报。
