alone.
Meaning:
Look happy as people are attracted to happiness but repelled by misery.
Background:
This expression was coined by American poet Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850-1919) in
her poem "Solitude" (1883):
Laugh, and the world laughs with you;
Weep, and you weep alone.
For the sad old earth must borrow it's mirth,
But has trouble enough of its own.
Sing, and the hills will answer;
Sigh, it is lost on the air.
The echoes bound to a joyful sound,
But shrink from voicing care.
Rejoice, and men will seek you;
Grieve, and they turn and go.
They want full measure of all your pleasure,
But they do not need your woe.
Be glad, and your friends are many;
Be sad, and you lose them all.
There are none to decline your nectared wine,
But alone you must drink life's gall.
Feast, and your halls are crowded;
Fast, and the world goes by.
Succeed and give, and it helps you live,
But no man can help you die.
There is room in the halls of pleasure
For a long and lordly train,
But one by one we must all file on
Through the narrow aisles of pain.
在下还挺喜欢哭鼻子的。
有压力,哭一哭。
不高兴,哭一哭。
哭完,心情就会平和很多,有益于健康。
当然,肯定都是私下哭。公开场合,尤其职场,还是要挺住!
大哭一场,就是一个自我恢复的过程。哭完了,该干嘛干嘛。
