字幕原文

After a long day around people, 和人打了一整天交道之后,

all I want is to be completely alone, 我只想彻彻底底一个人待着,

and I've stopped apologizing for it. 而且我也不会再为此感到抱歉了。

For a long time I worried this made me cold, 很长一段时间里,我都担心这样会显得我很冷漠,

or a bad friend. 或者不是个好朋友。

Everyone else seemed to want more time together, more plans, more noise, 其他人好像总想多聚聚,安排更多活动,享受更多热闹,

and I was the one quietly 而我却只是默默地

craving an empty apartment and total silence. 渴望回到空无一人的屋子里,享受彻底的清静。

But solitude isn't the same as loneliness. 但独处和孤单并不是一码事。

When I spend an evening alone, 当我一个人度过某个夜晚,

reading or just sitting with my own thoughts, 看看书,或者只是一个人坐着发发呆、想想心事,

I don't feel lonely at all. 我一点儿都不觉得孤单。

I feel like myself again. 反而觉得又做回了自己。

That quiet time is how I refill, 那种安静的时光就是我给自己充电的方式,

so that the next time I'm with people, 这样下次再去跟人相处的时候,

I actually have something to give. 我才真的有能量去付出。

Being alone doesn't mean I don't love people. 想一个人待着,并不代表我不爱身边的人。

It's often the very thing that lets me. 反而往往正是独处,才让我有了去爱的能力。
