little paper bird

little paper bird

我总是不能克制自己买笔记本的冲动，看着little paper bird  (flickr)一步一步制作如此精致笔记本的时候，我是激动的。工作就是自己爱好，这样的理想生活状态并不遥远是不是呢？可是某人却说，男人如果选择了自己的兴趣爱好为自己的工作，真是一种悲哀。我至今还不能完全理解这句话呀。

 

 I just cannot resist the impulsion to purchase those elegant notebooks. Sharing the moment of this homemaking with little paper bird, I feel a sense of satisfaction and exciting.  Combining your hobby with your work into daily life, is always the perfect future I would be ahead for and struggle for, and I do think it is not so far away from me.

But somebody argued with me that , if a man makes this choice or on this way, for him,for a man, it is a tragedy. Really? I still wonder.

PS:

and here i would like to ask for help from you guys: the following English translation of this Chinese slogan is what I have done for After 17, do you have any suggestions or correction about that, feel free to give a hand and help me to be better. :) thanks and cheers.

    工作基本上是重复劳动，很多时候会扼杀激情，干久了，有时候开始时候再喜欢，后来也厌倦了。
    工作么，一定程度上还是属于养家糊口的属性，这个层次先满足了，再来谈兴趣。

    我觉得看他怎么把兴趣和职业结合了
    如果结合的好也许会相当成功

    “男人如果选择了自己的兴趣爱好为自己的工作，真是一种悲哀。”
    这应该是女人说的话，因为很多时候做自己喜欢的工作，会废寝忘食，甚至忘记了女人，哈哈。

    不过，这日记本也太哪个漂亮了。^_^

    曾经有个名人也说过这样的话 当兴趣变成了你谋生的手段 那它就失去了原有的魅力和味道 哈 这句就算是我说的吧

    to Yuuco, Hi yuuco, I feel so excited and happy that your exhibition will be held in no time, that is gorgeous! I admire (Chinese word: Chong bai 崇拜) you, haha, you know that! Hmmmmm, what kind of art do I do? —that is really a good question for me, I am thinking for while and figure it out , that is, I am doing art of real life and art of self-consciousness. Physically, in the future time, I do wish I can be an independent book publication editor and bookseller.

    “可是某人却说，男人如果选择了自己的兴趣爱好为自己的工作，真是一种悲哀。我至今还不能完全理解这句话呀。”

    以兴趣為生勢必會壞性，為生就要被形勢所迫，被環境所逼，目的性太過明確，反而不能行雲流水，海闊天空，盡其言，行其事，心思坦然，亦會背叛本心的初衷。

    看过阿城的《棋王》没有？
    里面有這樣的句子“為棋不為生，生會壞性”
