我的一个朋友前不久对我抱怨说,他最近变得愈来愈没有耐心了。我让他找找原因,他居然说不出哪怕一条和他个人有关的具体理由,只是断断续续地历数了他面临的境况,他的观察和反省以及他困扰不宁的心绪。他谈了很多很多,那种迷惘的表情使我陷于沉思。后来我突然发觉,他就是我,他就是我们大家——我们这些生活在城市里的人。 A friend of mine recently complained to me that he has become increasingly impatient recently. I asked him to find the reason. He could not even say that even one concrete reason related to him was merely a sequel to the situation he faced, his observation and reflection, and his troublesome mood. He talked much, the confused expression made me meditated. Then I suddenly realized that he was me and he was all of us - those of us who live in cities.
