Who Moved My Cheese?

谁动了我的奶酪?

'Who moved my cheese?' is a story about change that takes place in a Maze where four amusing characters look for 'Cheese' - cheese being a metaphor for what we want to have in life, whether it is a job, a relationship, money, a big house, freedom, health, recognition, spiritual peace, or even an activity like jogging or golf.

《谁动了我的奶醅》所讲的是一个关于“变化”的故亊。故 亊发生在一个迷宫之中,有四个可爱的小生灵在迷宫里寻 找他们的奶醅。故亊里的“奶醅”是对我们在现实生活中所追 求目标的一种比喻,它可以是一份工作,一种人际关系,可以是 金钱,一幢豪宅,还可以是自由、健康、社会的认可和老板的赏 识。它可以是一种精神上的宁静,甚至还可以是一项运动,如慢 跑、高尔夫球等等。

Each of us has our own idea of what Cheese is, and we pursue it because we believe it can makes us happy. If we get it, we often become attached to it. And if we lose it, or it's taken away, it can be traumatic.

我们每个人的内心都有自己想要的“奶酪”,我们追寻它, 想要得到它,因为我们相信,它会带给我们幸福和快乐。然而一 旦我们得到了自己梦寐以求的奶酪,又常常会对它产生依赖心 理,甚至会成为它的附庸;这时如果我们忽然失去了它,或者它 被人拿走了,我们将会因此而受到极大的伤害。

The 'Maze' in the story represents where you spend time looking for what you want. It can be the organization you work in, the community you live in, or the relationships you have in your life.

故事里的“迷宫“代表你花时间寻求的东西所在的地方,它 可以是你效力的机构,你生活的社区,亦或是你生活中的某种人 际关系。

... In the story you will see that the two mice do better when they are faced with change because they keep things simple, while the two little people's complex brains and human emotions complicate things. It is not that mice are smarter. We all know people are more intelligent than mice.

在故事里,你会发现,当面对变化时两只小老鼠做得比两个 小矮人更好,因为他们总是把事情简单化;而两个小矮人所具有 的复杂的脑筋和人类的情感,却总是把亊情变得复杂化。这并 不是说老鼠比人更聪明,我们都知道人类更具智慧。

However, as you watch what the four characters do, and realize both the mice and the little people represent parts of ourselves - the simple and the complex - you can see it would be to our advantage to do the simple things that work when things change.

当你观察故亊中四个角色的行为时,你会发现,其实老鼠和 小矮人代表我们自身的不同方面——简单的一面和复杂的一 面。当亊物发生变化时,或许简单行亊会给我们带来许多的便利和益处。
