台湾籍旅美老师今天交给我们的句子是:
The true challenge is to stop being so revolted by people who do in fact want us and so admiring of those who don't Think back to when you rejected people. You didn't hate them or regret them. The chief emotions are embarrassment and pity.
真正的挑战是:不要再对那些真正喜欢我们的人那么反感,也不要那么地在意那些不喜欢我们的人。回想一下,之前你在拒绝别人的时候,你并没有讨厌他们或对他们感到抱歉。最主要的情绪反应其实是难堪和遗憾。
