其实我们心里都知道

此刻说出口的再见

是结束，也是开始

As the final chimes of the graduation ceremony fade away, we are reminded that every ending marks the beginning of something new. Graduation epitomizes this truth — it stands as the pinnacle of years of learning and growth, and also as the herald of an unknown future. Recall the endless nights spent in the library, the countless experiments in the lab, and the heated debates in the classroom; they have all contributed to the person we are today. Armed with a wealth of knowledge, we are ready to embark on a new journey, with a mix of nostalgia for the past and anticipation for what lies ahead.

当毕业典礼的钟声渐渐远去，我们被提醒着，每一个结束都是一个新的开始。毕业是这一真理的典型象征——它是多年学习和成长的顶点，同时也是未知未来的先声。想象一下，那些在图书馆度过的漫长夜晚，那些在实验室里反复试验的瞬间，还有那些在课堂上激烈辩论的日子，它们都汇聚成了此刻的我们。我们带着满满的知识行囊，准备踏上新的旅程，心中既有对过去的不舍，也有对未来的憧憬。

As you know, losing a job or transitioning from one career to another is not just a setback but an opportunity to reassess, explore new horizons, and embark on a professional journey that aligns more closely with our aspirations and passions. Consider the graphic designer who, after years at an advertising agency, faced layoff, initially feeling lost and fearful. Yet, this turning point allowed him to reevaluate his interests and strengths, leading him to open his own studio focused on eco-friendly design, finding a stage that truly belonged to him.

失去一份工作或从一种职业过渡到另一种职业，不仅仅是一个挫折，而是一个重新评估、探索新视野、开始与我们的愿望和激情更紧密相连的职业旅程的机会。就像那位在广告公司工作多年的设计师，突然被裁员，起初感到迷茫和恐惧。但正是这个转折点，让他有机会重新审视自己的兴趣和长处，最终他开设了自己的工作室，专注于环保材料的设计，找到了真正属于自己的舞台。

And of course, the end of a relationship is not just a source of negativity and desolation; it also signifies the need to love ourselves more, to welcome and embrace a new life and future. For instance, the loneliness following a breakup might plunge one into self-doubt, but it is also an opportunity for self-discovery and growth. Activities such as solo travel, learning new skills, and engaging in volunteer work not only help us move beyond the shadows of the past but also enable us to understand ourselves better, preparing us for new love and life possibilities.

一段关系的结束也不仅仅只留下了消极和颓废，也意味着我们需要更加懂得爱自己，来迎接和拥抱新的生活和未来。比如，分手后的孤独感可能会让人陷入自我怀疑，但这也是自我发现和成长的机会。一个人旅行、学习新技能、投身于志愿服务，这些活动不仅能帮助我们走出过去的阴影，还能让我们更加了解自己，准备好迎接新的爱情和生活的可能性。

At every turn in life, we experience loss, fear, and uncertainty, but these feelings are the very forces that propel us forward. They remind us that life is not a straight line but a journey filled with twists and scenery. Each ending is an opportunity for us to redefine ourselves and reconnect with the world. Let us embrace every ending with gratitude, for they herald new beginnings, new hope, and a new self.

在生活的每一个转折点，我们都会经历失落、恐惧、不确定，但这些感受正是推动我们前进的力量。它们提醒我们，生活不是一条直线，而是一条充满曲折和风景的旅程。每一次的结束，都是我们重新定义自己、重新连接世界的机会。让我们带着感激的心情，拥抱每一个结束，因为它们预示着新的开始，新的希望和新的自我。

Walking in Different Shoes: How Our Views Shift 

Have you ever found yourself in this situation:

孟叔想说，你有没有遇到过这样的情况：

While driving, you can't help but mutter, "Why are these pedestrians walking so slowly?" But when you're the one walking on the street, you think, "These cars are driving way too fast. It's so dangerous!"

你开车时，总会觉得：“这行人走得也太慢了吧，磨磨蹭蹭的！”但当你自己走在马路上时，又会想：“路上这些车怎么开这么快，太危险了，还一个劲乱按喇叭！”

Sounds familiar? Don't worry, you're not alone. We've all experienced these moments of "dual personality."

是不是觉得有类似经历？其实，并不只你一个人有同感。我们每个人都经历过这种“双重性格”的时刻。

Examples like this are everywhere in our daily lives. When we're waiting in line, we always feel the service is too slow; but if we're the one behind the counter, we hope customers could be a bit more patient. As students, we think teachers assign too much homework; when we become teachers ourselves, we want students to do more practice.

生活中这样的例子比比皆是。比如当我们排队购物或点餐时，总觉得前台服务太慢效率太低；但如果我们是那个柜台后面的店员，又希望顾客能多一点耐心。还有学生时期，我们总觉得老师布置的作业太多；当自己成为老师的时候，又希望学生能多做点练习多学习些知识。

Interestingly, our thoughts change as our roles change. It's like we're playing a role-playing game. Every time we switch roles, we put on different "glasses," and the world we see changes accordingly.

所以我们的想法会随着身份的变化而变化。就像是角色扮演游戏，每换一个角色，我们就戴上了不同身份的“眼镜”，看到的世界和视角也就不一样了。

Recognizing this is quite fun, isn't it? It tells us that the world isn't simply black and white. Next time you think someone is doing something wrong, try "walking in their shoes" for a bit. You might find that when you look at things from a different angle, everything seems different.

认识到这一点其实挺有趣的，因为它告诉我们，这个世界并不是非黑即白那么绝对的。所以下次当你觉得别人做得不对时，不妨试着“站在他人的角度来看待问题”。这样你可能就会发现，换个角度看问题，一切都变得不一样了。

This way of thinking not only helps us understand others better but also makes our lives easier and more enjoyable. After all, when we learn to see things from others' perspectives, we can better understand this complex world and get along more harmoniously with others.

这种思考方式不仅能让我们更理解他人，也能让我们的生活更轻松愉快。毕竟，当我们学会站在别人的角度思考问题时，我们就能更好地理解这个复杂的世界，也能更和谐地与他人相处。

So, the next time you find yourself having a strong opinion about something, pause and think: What if the roles were reversed? How would I see it then? You might be surprised to find that the answer isn't as simple as you initially thought.

所以下次当你发现自己对某事有强烈看法时，不妨停下来想一想：如果角色互换，如果我是ta的话，我会怎么看待这件事呢？可能你会惊讶地发现，答案并不像你一开始想的那么简单。
