趣味英语第50期:感性的人要如何强大起来

EmmaTheKitty asks:

EmmaTheKitty问道：

"I'm a very sensitive person and I really wanna be strong. I just don't know how."

“我是一个非常感性的人，我特别想强大起来。可是我不知道应该怎么做。”

(toughly) Gotta work out your muscles! And get those bad boy...on!

（强硬地）你要锻炼肌肉！展现出“坏男孩”的形象来！

By being yourself, you will be strong.

做你自己，你会强大起来的。

Work on being a little more alert¹ to your sensitivity².

对你的感性更加警觉。

Don't let those haters get to you. Those people that say bad things about you are probably just jealous.

不要让那些仇恨者影响你。那些人说你的坏话可能是因为嫉妒。

Every time you feel something just hit your heart, and that just makes you want to cry, think of happy things.

每次有事情让你伤心、让你想哭的时候，想想开心的事情。

Have a better mindset and perspectives on how you view things.

用更好的心态和观点去看待事情。

You can be strong in many ways. Maybe you could be a strong friend.

你可以在许多方面强大起来。也许你会成为一个强大的朋友。

Strong doesn't mean you keep all your emotions in, so just be your own person and that's what makes you strong.

强大并不是说要隐藏起你的情感，你应该做自己，这就会让你强大起来。

You can be a sensitive person and be a strong person at the same time. Even though people associate sadness and crying with weakness, I associate that with being strong because you're allowing yourself to feel emotions that society tells us to suppress³.

你可以同时做感性的人和强大的人。虽然人们会将伤心和哭泣同软弱联系起来，但是我认为那也是种强大，因为你让自己感受到了社会让我们压抑起来的情感。

I am a really sensitive person too. I wear my heart on my sleeve. But it's important to, you know, be strong in yourself and know that things are gonna get solved.

我也是个感性的人。我经常会流露出自己的感情。但是重要的是内心的强大，你要相信事情总会解决的。

Keep being strong in your head. Keep saying, "I'm okay." Have confidence in yourself and look at your sensitivity as a gift.

记住你要变得强大这件事。你要不断地对自己说：“我没问题。”要对自己有信心，把你的感性看做是上天的恩赐。
