向左走,向右走?.....波兰女作家辛波丝卡《一见钟情》 They're both convincedthat a sudden passion joined them.Such certainty is beautiful,but uncertainty is more beautiful still.他们彼此深信,是瞬间迸发的热情让他们相遇,这样的确定是美丽的,但变幻无常更为美丽.Since they'd never met before, they're surethat there'd been nothing between them.But what's the word from the streets, staircases, hallways --perhpas they've passed by each other a million times?他们确定彼此并无任何刮葛,但是在街道、楼梯、走廊传来的话语,他们也许擦肩而过一百万次了吧.I want to ask themif they don't remember--a moment face to facein some revolving door?perhaps a "sorry" muttered in a crowd?a curt (简短的)"wrong number" caught in the receiver?--but I know the answer.No, they don't remember.They'd be amazed to hearthat Chance has been toying with themnow for years.我想问他们是否记得,在旋转门面对面那一刹或在人群中喃喃的道出对不起或是在电话中另一端道出的打错了,但是我早知道答案,是的.他们并不记得,他们会很压抑,原来缘分以往戏弄他们多年. Not quite ready yetto become their Destiny,it pushed them close, drove them apart,it barred their path,stifling a laugh,and then leaped aside.时机尚为成熟,变成他们的命运,缘份将他们推进,去离,阻挡他们的去路,忍住笑声,然后闪到一旁. There were signs and signals,even if they couldn't read them yet.Perhaps three years agoor just last Tuesdaya certain leaf flutteredfrom one shoulder to another?Something was dropped and then picked up.Who knows, maybe the ball that vanishedinto childhood's thicket?There were doorknobs and doorbellswhere one touch had covered anotherbeforehand.Suitcases checked and standing side by side.One night, perhaps, the same dream,grown hazy by morning.Every beginning is only a sequel(结局), after all, and the book of eventsis always open halfway through.
