人生不是為了快樂！ (Life is Not About Being Happy)
- It's in such moments of knotted misery that we may gain some relief from reframing our situation. While we may not be able to overcome our burdens themselves, it does lie in our power to alter what these burdens have to mean to us. We may not have to take them as proof of our stupidity or ill-adjustment. They can be signs that we're destined to have interesting lives rather than calm ones, lives marked by a high degree of exploration, psychological understanding and striving rather than settled certainty and equilibrium, what we lack in terms of contentment we may make up for in terms of insight and experience.
在這種痛苦糾結的時刻，我們或許可以通過重塑我們的處境來獲得一些解脫。雖然我們可能無法克服負擔本身，但我們確實有能力改變這些負擔對我們的意義。我們也許不必把它們當作我們愚蠢或不適應的證明。它們可以是一種跡象，表明我們註定要過有趣的生活，而不是平靜的生活；我們的生活以高度的探索、心理理解和努力為標誌，而不是以穩定的確定性和平衡為標誌；我們在滿足感方面的欠缺，可以在洞察力和經驗方面得到彌補。
- striving rather than settled certainty and equilibrium.
歷史上沒人討論的十大驚人奇聞！ (Top 10 Craziest Stories in History NO ONE Talks About)
- In an age overrun with true crime content, we're surprised more people aren't familiar with the Bloody Benders. The Benders were a family of four, although it's debated whether the two youngest were siblings or a couple. That's one of the many missing puzzle pieces, including where they came from before arriving in Kansas. What we can say with certainty is that the Benders ran an inn and claimed more than ten lives over roughly two years. Eventually, one of the missing traveler's brothers, a colonel during the Civil War, started an investigation.
在這個充斥著真實犯罪內容的時代，我們很驚訝沒有更多的人熟悉 "血腥彎曲人"（Bloody Benders）。班德家有四口人，但最小的兩個是兄妹還是夫妻還存在爭議。這是許多缺失的拼圖之一，包括他們在來到堪薩斯之前來自哪裡。我們可以肯定的是，班德斯一家經營著一家旅館，在大約兩年的時間裡奪走了十多條人命。最終，失蹤旅行者的一個兄弟，南北戰爭時期的一名上校，開始了調查。

為什麼我們要花很長時間才能瞭解自己有多糟糕？ (Why It Can Take Us So Long to Understand How Unwell We Are)
- This priority can last for a very long time indeed. After all, a sense of external security isn't remotely assured for most of us until we've settled in a career, built up some capital, bought a home, found a spouse, maybe had some children, by which time we might be in our forties or fifties. Yet our excellence at survival doesn't take away from the basic fact of our situation. We have been born into a mess. We have the ingredients of madness inside us. We have been unmoored by cruelty. We are, quietly, in the recesses of our soul, close to insanity at points, the ineluctable result of too much suffering encountered too soon. But as the external world gets ever safer for us, the internal world has a chance to feel as troubled as it has always been. We may feel far stranger inside at forty than at twenty, even though the causes of our disturbances lie in events far closer to the latter date than the former. Eventually, the pent-up fear and sadness are liable to find a way through. We'll start to do something odd, write long letters to strangers, or crash the car, or sob in public, or develop a certainty that the government is following us. The legacy of the unkindness of which we have been the recipients begins to emerge. With any luck, we may soon enough wind up in a clinic or the consulting room of an experienced therapist and here have a chance to find out more about the sadness and loss that have been inside us since the start. We may finally feel safe enough to let out a very long scream and meet with the love and understanding that were our due from the start.
這種優先權可能會持續很長一段時間。畢竟，對於我們中的大多數人來說，在事業穩定下來、積累了一定的資本、買了房子、找到了配偶、也許有了孩子之前，外部安全感是無法保證的，到那時我們可能已經四五十歲了。然而，我們出色的生存能力並不能掩蓋我們處境的基本事實。我們生來就是一團糟。我們的內心充滿了瘋狂的成分。我們因殘酷而失去自我。我們的靈魂深處悄悄地接近瘋狂，這是過早遭遇太多痛苦的必然結果。然而，當外部世界對我們越來越安全時，我們的內心世界卻有機會像以往一樣感到不安。四十歲時，我們的內心可能會比二十歲時陌生得多，儘管造
