夏日的夕陽
Sunsets in the summer
我們發現在這個夕陽的色彩裡
正經驗著一個從明亮到黑暗入夜的過程
In the colors of the sky at dusk
we experience brightness fading into darkness
它的繁華
它的複雜
好像讓我們感覺到:
生命在最後的時刻
要釋放出一切的經驗出來
其中可能有我們愛的記憶、恨的記憶
曾經眷戀或沮喪的經驗
曾經悲傷或歡喜的記憶
sunsets are elaborate
and complicated affairs
emotions and expereinces
are unleashed
during the final moments of life
our memories of love and hate
obsessions and frustrations
sadness and joy
我不知道在面對夕陽的時候
它到底呼喚出我們心理底層什麼樣的一種心情?
Sunsets
have a way of unearthing our deepest sentiments
所以如果有機會面對夏日的夕陽
可以問問自己:我究竟在看什麼?
When watching a sunset in the summer
Ask yourself: what am I looking at?
只是在動用視覺觀賞夕陽的美嗎?
我只是在觀察夕陽的色彩變化嗎?
還是這些變化
其實也就是自己生命中複雜而豐富的變化?
Is this but a visual feast for the eyes?
Am I just observing the changing colors in the sky?
Or do these changes
mirror the complicated but potent changes happening in my life?
