This one moment when you know you\'re not a sad story 这一瞬间，你知道自己不是悲剧的主角 You\'re alive 你充满生命力
And you stand up and see the lights on buildings 你站起来，欣赏着浮光掠影中的建筑
And everything that makes you wonder 看看眼前让你惊叹的一切
And you are listening to that song on that drive 听着音乐，兜着风
With the people you love most in this world 和最爱的人在一起
And in this moment, I swear 我敢说，在这一刻 We are infinite. 我们拥有无限。
来自电影〈壁花少年The Perks of Being A wallflower〉
以上的台词来自电影中Charlie, Sam 以及Patric三个人第一次开车兜风经过隧道时，Charlie的旁白。站起来，迎着风，被包围在真实世界的浮光掠影之中。张开双手，无可救药地渴望着自由和无限。仿佛刹那间，青春绽放出一朵美丽耀眼的壁花。
But every once in a while you find someone who\'s iridescent, and when you do, nothing will compare.
世人万千种，浮云莫去求，斯人如彩虹，遇上方知有。
I\'ve been waiting for a lover like you my whole life, you haven\'t show up until now, and I\'m scared shitless that I\'m gonna do something to fuck it up.
穷极一生，我都在等待我的爱人出现，终于现在你出现了，我害怕的要命，就怕我搞砸了这一切。

请不要再放气球了 它其实是个杀手
Mother Nature says stop releasing balloons
放飞气球在很多人看来都是一件很浪漫的事情，但是你知道放飞气球的危害吗？氦气球飞到空中会杀死鸟儿，落到地上会呛死牲畜，掉到海里会害死海龟，而且还会严重污染自然环境。所以，放飞气球仅仅是看上去很美，而已。 Release a helium balloon on a bright, sunny day, watch it magically float up into the sky, and I dare you not to feel some variety of exhilaration, a sense of wonder, a longing for freedom, suspense.... It\'s like a 21-gun salute, but quieter. It\'s like a Chinese Sky Lantern ceremony, but for the daytime.People release big bunches of balloons for memorial services, grand openings, birthday parties and parades. It\'s just a Thing We Do, and it\'s fun. But it\'s really, really terrible for the environment.
在一个阳光明媚的日子里，你放飞了一个氦气球，并看着它神奇地漂浮在天空中。我敢肯定，这时的你会感到一丝兴奋与惊喜，还有对自由的渴望。这

就像观看21响礼炮一样，只是更安静。这也像中国人放飞孔明灯一样，只是在白天而已。人们会在纪念仪式、盛大开幕式、生日聚会和游行中放飞大量的气球。虽然这只是人们喜欢做的一件有趣的事，但是这对环境来说真的非常糟糕。
When a balloon ascends into the heavens, it doesn\'t end up on Jupiter. You know this. Although a helium balloon can rise to altitudes of 8 kilometers into Earth\'s atmosphere, it\'s got to come back down eventually, and when it does, it wreaks some havoc. That colorful little scrap of latex may end up living in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. It could get tangled up in the flippers of a sea turtle or be eaten by one who mistakes it for a jellyfish. Or a bighorn sheep could mistake it for forage, or it might land in some farmer\'s pasture, where a cow chokes on the string. According to the US Fish and Wildlife Service, animals of the land, sea and air are equally susceptible to mistaking deflated balloons for food, or, arguably worse, getting tangled up and strangled by the ribbon attached to it.
我们都知道，即使氦气球一直向上升，它最终也不会落到木星上去。尽管氦气球可以升到距地面8千米的高度，但它最终还是会回来的，一旦它降落了，就会造成一些破坏。那些五颜六色的乳胶碎片最终可能会掉在太平洋垃圾带，它们可能会缠住海龟的鳍状肢，或者被海龟当成水母给吃掉。它们落在陆地上时，大角羊可能会把它们误认为是饲料。它们落在农民的牧场时，气球上的丝带很可能会呛死一头牛。美国鱼类和野生动物管理局的数据显示，陆地、海洋和空中的动物都很容易把泄气的气球误认为是食物，更糟糕的是，它们

都有可能被气球上的丝带缠住并勒死。
And it\'s true, some balloons do break down eventually. A big part of the reason releasing balloons is permitted in so many places is that latex balloons are technically biodegradable — it takes one between six months and four years to break down completely, though they deteriorate in seawater more slowly than they do on land. Mylar balloons, on the other hand, are made out of NASA-grade nylon and are not biodegradable, so they can hang out in the environment indefinitely.
诚然，有些气球最终会分解掉。许多地方之所以允许放飞气球，很大程度上是因为乳胶气球在技术上是可生物降解的。但是它们也需要长达6个月到4年的时间才能完全分解，而且它们在海水中的降解速度比在陆地上要慢很多。还有一种迈拉气球是由美国宇航局级别的尼龙制成的，不能生物降解，因此它们会一直存在于自然界中。
