字幕原文

I keep a small notebook in my desk. 我书桌里放着一本小本子。

It's not a diary. 它不是日记。

I only write one kind of thing in it: times 我只在上面记一种事:

when someone was kind to me. 就是别人对我好的那些时刻。

Most entries are short. 大部分内容都很短。

"March 3. “3月3日。

The bus driver saw me running and waited." 公交车司机看到我跑过来,特意等了我一下。”

"June 12. “6月12日。

Mei brought me soup when I was sick. 我生病的时候,小梅给我送了汤。

I didn't ask." 我并没开口求她。”

I started it during a bad year. 我是有一年过得很不顺的时候开始记的。

I had begun to believe that people were mostly selfish, 那时候我甚至觉得,大部分人都是自私的,

and that I was mostly alone. 而我大体上也是孤身一人。

I wanted proof, one way or the other. 我想证明点什么,不管是真是假。

So I kept count. 于是我就记了下来。

The notebook is almost full now. 现在这个本子差不多快写满了。

One hundred and forty pages of evidence. 一百四十页的证据。

On bad days, I still take it out 心情不好的时候,我还是会把它拿出来,

and read a few pages. 翻上几页。

The world on those pages is the same world outside my window. 那些纸上的世界,其实就是我窗外的这个世界。

The kindness was always there. 善意一直都在。

I just wasn't writing it down. 只是我以前没有记下来罢了。
