少即自由

字幕原文

For most of my life, I thought more was better. 大半辈子以来，我都以为东西越多越好。

A bigger place, more clothes, more gadgets, more everything. 更大的房子、更多的衣服、更多的新玩意儿，什么都想要更多。

Owning things felt like winning. 拥有东西的感觉就像是赢了一样。

But somewhere along the way, I noticed something strange. 但不知从什么时候起，我察觉到了一件怪事。

The more I owned, the more time I spent managing it all. 我拥有的越多，花在打理它们上的时间就越多。

Cleaning it, storing it, worrying about it, insuring it. 打扫、收纳、为它们操心，甚至给它们买保险。

My stuff was quietly running my life. 这些东西正在不知不觉中主宰我的生活。

So I started letting go, slowly, 于是我开始慢慢放手，

and I found an unexpected feeling on the other side. 结果体会到了一种意想不到的感觉。

Freedom. 自由。

With less to take care of, 要操心的东西少了，

I had more time, more space, more room to breathe. 我有了更多时间、更大空间，以及更多喘息的余地。

It flipped everything I believed. 这彻底颠覆了我过去坚信的一切。

I used to think my things gave me freedom. 我曾经以为是这些东西给了我自由。

Turns out, for a long time, 结果在很长一段时间里，

they were the very thing keeping me tied down. 恰恰是它们一直在束缚着我。
