人生终极圆满：匮乏之美

The Ultimate Perfection of Life: The Beauty of Scarcity

1. 曹操以“鸡肋”作为军营口令，别人都想不明白，只有杨修明白曹操想退军的心思，于是让众人提前收拾行装，免得临时慌乱。

1. Cao Cao used "gizzard" as a password for the military camp, and no one else could figure it out. Only Yang Xiu understood that Cao Cao wanted to withdraw the army, so he instructed everyone to pack up early to avoid panic at the last minute.

2. 但正是因为杨修的聪明，让曹操非常忌讳和反感，以扰乱军心之罪将他杀害。

2. But it was precisely because of his cleverness that Yang Xiu aroused Cao Cao's extreme jealousy and aversion, and he was killed on the charge of disturbing the morale of the army.

3. 断瓦残垣固然没有富丽堂皇的故宫那么让人目不暇接，设计精美的苏州圆林让人流连忘返，但是因其独有韵味，也不失一种美。

3. Although the broken tiles and ruins are not as spectacular as the magnificent Forbidden City, which leaves people overwhelmed with its grandeur, the beautifully designed Suzhou gardens are captivating and leave visitors longing to return. However, due to their unique charm, they are also not devoid of beauty.

4. 纳兰容若出生于宰相之家，生活富裕，才华横溢，顺风顺水，本该一生无忧。但他却因为太多情，总是渴望感情的圆满，而经常郁郁寡欢，愁绪不展。

4. Nalan Rongruo was born into a family of prime ministers, lived a wealthy life, was talented, and had everything going his way, which should have made him worry-free for life. However, due to his excessive sentimentality and constant desire for the perfection of love, he often felt melancholic and unable to express his worries.

5. 杰王子的离开给了人们更多的是震撼，一个这么有才华的歌手，一个拥有纯洁笑容、好听声音的天使，人们不舍，人们难过。所以人们更多的去关注杰王子。

5. The departure of Prince Jie gave people more shock. Such a talented singer, an angel with a pure smile and a pleasant voice, was hard to let go of, and people felt sad. Therefore, people paid more attention to Prince Jie.

6. 但成功后的庄宗志得意满，认为自己是古往今来最圆满的圣君皇帝，于是骄傲自满，荒废国政，和一群戏子伶人登台唱戏，粉墨登场，扭捏作态。

6. But after achieving success, Zhuang Zong was complacent and proud, believing himself to be the most perfect holy emperor throughout history. As a result, he became proud and self-satisfied, neglecting state affairs, and joining a group of actors and entertainers on stage to sing and perform, donning face paint and adopting exaggerated gestures.

7. 水满则溢，物极必反，月满则缺，任何事物抵达最圆满的状态，都会走向它的方面，变成遗憾和悲剧。人生最顶级的圆满，不是圆满，而是残缺，是花未全开月未圆，茶未喝完酒未醉。

7. When water is full, it overflows; when things reach their peak, they must reverse. When the moon is full, it will become crescent. Any thing that reaches its most perfect state will move towards its opposite, becoming a regret or tragedy. The highest perfection in life is not perfection itself, but imperfection - it is the flower that has not fully bloomed, the moon that has not reached its full, the tea that has not been finished, and the wine that has not made one drunk.

8. 林徽因说：

8. Lin Huiyin said:

9. 曹操在点心盒子上写“一合酥”，杨修就和众人分而食之，曹操故意问起，杨修答：一合酥，拆分过来就是一人一口酥，我们不敢违背丞相之意，才分吃了。

9. Cao Cao wrote "One piece of sweet paste" on the box of desserts, and Yang Xiu, along with everyone else, divided and ate it. Cao Cao deliberately inquired about it, and Yang Xiu replied: "One piece of sweet paste, when split, means 'one mouthful of sweet paste' for each person. We dared not go against the will of the Marquis, so we divided and ate it."

10. 其实人生在世，不如意事十有八九，月有阴晴圆缺，人有悲欢离合。能修成正果皆大欢喜，如果不能，当然会有遗憾。但用心体会，你会发现残缺有其独特的美——缺憾之美。

10. In fact, in the course of life, there are nine out of ten things that are not as one wishes. The moon has its times of brightness and darkness, and people experience joy and sorrow, separation and reunion. It is a great joy to attain the ultimate fruit of one's cultivation, but of course, there will be regrets if one fails to do so. However, if you take the time to experience and appreciate it, you will find that there is a unique beauty in imperfection—the beauty of defect.

11. 他曾写下：我是人间惆怅客，知君何事泪纵横，断肠声里忆平生。

11. He once wrote: "I am a melancholic wanderer among men, knowing why you shed tears across, memories of heartache echoing through my life."

12. 我是人世间一个惆怅的过客，我知道你为何事而泪流满面。怕是在断肠的笛声里，你回忆起了平生的点点滴滴。

12. I am a melancholic traveler in this world, and I know why you are shedding tears. It might be that in the哀怨的 flute melody, you are recalling the trivialities of your life.

13. 大智若愚，笨一点，才能明哲保身。

13. The wise appear foolish; being a bit dumb is the way to safeguard one's wisdom.

14. 万事万物，难有十全十美。相爱的人不能长相厮守，当然是一大憾事，但正因为有了这距离，才能把彼此永放心间，永远在对方心中留下最美丽的记忆。

14. In all things, it is rare to find something that is perfect. The inability of lovers to be together forever is indeed a great regret, but it is precisely because of this distance that we can cherish each other in our hearts forever, and leave the most beautiful memories in the hearts of the other.

15. 不管别人说我们是自我安慰，还是什么，我相信我们星星会为杰王子努力的。

15. No matter what others say about us being self-comforting or whatever, I believe our stars will work hard for Prince Jay.

16. 一个人不管多么成功，多么辉煌，多么圆满，一定不能内心骄狂，否则，必然自取其辱，自招其祸。

16. No matter how successful, how glorious, or how perfect a person may be, they must never let their pride take over in their hearts. Otherwise, they are sure to bring shame upon themselves and attract misfortune.

17. 最后，在伶人发动的一场政变之中，惊惶失措，走投无路。

17. Finally, amidst a coup d'état orchestrated by the actors, they were in a state of panic, at a loss for where to turn.

18. 对，淡淡的遗憾，我们的杰王子止步这个舞台，也许是上天个我们杰王子的礼物，是上天让杰王子以后的音乐之路更加平坦。如果这次得了冠军固然好，但是如果像三年前那样，将我们的杰王子放在一边，那么这样的冠军又有什么意义。当年的何洁不是也没有得第一吗？？她不是一样专辑大卖吗？？（请允许我拿她作比喻）

18. Yes, there's a faint sense of regret, as our Prince Ge stops at this stage. Perhaps it's a gift from the heavens to our Prince Ge, making his future musical path even smoother. It would indeed be great if he won the championship this time, but if he were to be overlooked like three years ago, what would such a championship mean? After all, wasn't He Jie also not the first place winner back then?? Didn't she also sell millions of albums?? (Please allow me to use her as a comparison)

19. 当然，在品味这种缺憾之美时，苦甜参半，这是一种凄凉的美。只有品尝过的人，才知道其中的个中滋味，喜忧参半，刻骨铭心，永世不忘！

19. Of course, when appreciating the beauty of this defect, it is a mix of bitterness and sweetness, a melancholic beauty. Only those who have tasted it know the flavors, a mix of joy and sorrow, deeply etched in the heart, unforgettable for eternity!

20. 后唐庄宗李存勖，继位之初就打败契丹，俘虏燕国皇帝父子，收复丢失的故土，能力卓著，功勋赫赫，受到了百官的爱戴和拥护。

20. The Emperor Li Cunxu of the Later Tang Dynasty, at the beginning of his reign, defeated the Khitans, captured the emperor and his son of Yan State, recovered the lost territory, demonstrated exceptional abilities, and won great achievements. He was deeply loved and supported by all the officials.

21. 世间唯有感情最难如愿，你爱的人不爱你，爱你的人你不爱，相爱的人未必可以相聚，如果我们耿耿于怀，纠结不清，必然痛苦不堪，没有生活质量可言。

21. In this world, emotions are the hardest to satisfy. The one you love doesn't love you back, and the one who loves you, you don't love. Lovers may not necessarily be able to be together. If we hold on to our regrets and are entangled in confusion, we will inevitably suffer greatly, with no quality of life to speak of.

22. 如果说遗憾是种美，那它的名字就叫做凄美。它美得如此惨烈！让人撕心裂肺。

22. If regret is a form of beauty, then its name is called melancholic beauty. It is so惨烈 that it tears one's heart apart.

23. 杨修是三国时期最聪明的人，曹操在门上写下一个活字，别人皆不解其意，杨修说：门中有活，阔也，丞相嫌这道门太宽。于是重新调整了门框。

23. Yang Xiu was the wisest person during the Three Kingdoms period. Cao Cao wrote a living character on the door, and everyone else could not understand its meaning. Yang Xiu said: "The character '活' means there is a living being inside the door, which implies that the door is too wide, and Prime Minister Cao thinks so." So he rearranged the door frame.

24. 一个人太聪明不是好事，所有人都希望自己聪明，而不希望别人比自己聪明。尤其是对于权贵，如果别人比自己聪明，就犯了他们的忌讳，必欲置之死地而后快。

24. It's not a good thing for a person to be too clever. Everyone hopes to be smart themselves, but not to be smarter than others. Especially for the elite, if someone is smarter than them, it offends their taboo, and they would be eager to destroy them before feeling any satisfaction.

25. “人生总在祈求圆满，觉得好茶需要配好壶，好花需要配好瓶，而佳人也自当配才子。却不知道，有时候缺憾是一种美丽。太过精致，太过完美，反而要惊心度日。”

25. "People always seek perfection in life, thinking that good tea needs a good pot, good flowers need a good vase, and a beautiful person naturally deserves a scholar. But what they don't realize is that sometimes, imperfection is a form of beauty. Too much delicacy, too much perfection, can actually be unsettling and make one dread each day."

26. 因为太过深情，他容不得一次分别，一个遗憾，一场爱而不得，放一下一个从自己内心路过的人，把自己变成“人间惆怅客”，见花伤心，对月流泪，闻笛嗟叹，最后年纪轻轻就抑郁而终。

26. Because of his profound sentimentality, he could not bear a single parting, a regret, or a love that could not be fulfilled. He couldn't let go of a person who passed by his inner self. He turned himself into a "troubled traveler among men," feeling sad upon seeing flowers, shedding tears at the moon, sighing upon hearing the bamboo flute, and eventually succumbing to depression at a young age.

27. 列夫 托尔斯泰说，天空没有留下我的印迹，但我已飞过。真的飞过就足够了吗？当然不是！只不过面对无法改变的既成事实，这样说能得到一种安慰，这样安慰可以给我们带来足够的勇气去面对下一个挑战。遗憾是种美的说法，不过是为了给人以信心。

27. Leo Tolstoy said, "The sky does not leave any trace of me, but I have flown over." Is it enough to have really flown? Of course not! Such a statement can bring comfort in the face of unchangeable facts, and this comfort can give us enough courage to face the next challenge. Regret is a beautiful phrase, but it is only meant to give people confidence.

28. 人说，失之毫厘，谬以千里。在得到与失去之间，成功与失败之间，就只有这一毫一厘的差距。这段距离中有种东西叫做遗憾。有人说，遗憾是种美。

28. People say, "A miss is as good as a mile." The gap between gaining and losing, between success and failure, is just this tiny bit. Within this distance, there is something called regret. Some say that regret is a kind of beauty.

29. 人世上总是充满了残缺和遗憾，而残缺正是最好的状态。如果圆满了，祸患就会接踵而至。接受残缺，知足常乐，即为圆满。

29. The world is always filled with imperfections and regrets, and imperfection is the best state. If it were perfect, misfortunes would follow one after another. Accepting imperfections and being content with what one has is the essence of completeness.

30. 所以我说，遗憾本身并不美。遗憾之美在于人的心。只有人战胜困难的信心不变，遗憾才能是种美。遗憾之美还在于它令人无法忘却的本领。遗憾，有时比完美更能让人牢记，一世无法忘怀。

30. Therefore, I say that regret itself is not beautiful. The beauty of regret lies in the heart of a person. Only when a person maintains unchanging confidence in overcoming difficulties can regret be considered beautiful. The beauty of regret also lies in its ability to be unforgettable. Sometimes, regret is more memorable than perfection, leaving a mark that one cannot forget throughout their lifetime.

31. Ouyang Xiu's evaluation of this matter: "Pride leads to loss, while modesty brings benefit."
