【诗歌】走在自己的时区里

一首美国的诗歌《走在自己的时区里》，送给大家
在你们自己的时区里,没有迟到这个概念
身处顺境不要忘乎所以，身处逆境不要灰心丧气
诸君共勉！！！

原文

New York is 3 hours ahead of California,
but it does not make California slow.
Someone graduated at the age of 22,
but waited 5 years before securing a good job!
Someone became a CEO at 25,
and died at 50.
While another became a CEO at 50,
and lived to 90 years.
Someone is still single,
while someone else got married.
Obama retires at 55,
but Trump starts at 70.
Absolutely everyone in this world works based on their Time Zone.
People around you might seem to go ahead of you,
some might seem to be behind you.
But everyone is running their own RACE, in their own TIME.
Don't envy them or mock them.
They are in their TIME ZONE, and you are in yours!
So, relax.
You're not LATE.
You're not EARLY.
You are very much ON TIME, and in your TIME ZONE Destiny set up for you.

翻译

纽约比加州早三个小时，
但加州的时间并没有因此变慢。
有人22岁就毕业了，
却等了五年才找到好工作！
有人25岁就当上了CEO，
却在50岁去世。
也有人直到50岁才当上CEO，
最后活到90岁。
有人依然单身，
而别人却早已结婚。
奥巴马55岁退任总统，
而川普70岁才开始当总统。
世上每个人都有自己的发展时区。
身边有些人看似走在你前面，
也有人看似走在你后面。
但其实每个人在自己的时区有自己的步程。
不用嫉妒或嘲笑他们。
他们都在自己的时区里，你也在你的时区里！
所以，放轻松。
你没有落后。
你没有领先。
在命运为你安排的属于你自己的时区里，一切都准时。

Keep dreaming and carry on, no matter how hard;

Keep reading and excersing, no matter how busy;

人生，就是一场长跑
Life is a long run
