6/4
afternoon:
我想改变一下日记的内容,我总是在一天里最想你的时刻写日记,但是这是对我一整天偏差很大的sampling。我想写一点轻松的东西,我的生活里确实也有愉快的部分,比如和Adou每天吃饭,去购物,听音乐等等。但是这些感受在打开日记后自动被蒙上了一层雾,我有点不愿意在这里开心。为什么呢?也许是我知道你现在很难,我不想想在你面前表现得轻松愉快,我更想和你在一起。而且让我开心的都是很小的事,它们没有完整的chain,所以难以记叙,而且会过度扩张日记的scale。还是let it be吧,我想写什么就写什么。
Afternoon:
今天我还是挺开心的,不是那种狂喜,而是感受到生活的流动感之后,就像清泉一样的情绪。早上我睡到九点,外面下着雨,晚上还要去巴黎讲中文课,我没什么动力去lab。但是我看到导师发的邮件,他想看看我对于某个问题的计算过程,但是我的计算手稿都留在我的办公桌上,我得去研究所才能整理好发给他。最后我还是选择不去,因为其实计算过程和结果全在我的脑内,我在家很快就又完成了一遍计算,并整理好了latex笔记发给了他。之后中午十二点我吃了几口午饭,做得有点失败,所以没吃多少。下午我又回到了床上,刷了会视频,听了会音乐,两点半我又爬起来完成今天的法语学习。我似乎还没跟你说过,我开始自己学法语了,我又买了一本A1教材,现在以每天3~4页的速度推进,我发现学语言其实也不像我想的那么无趣,当我发现我能比以前看懂更多街上的文字,听清一点别人说的话的时候,成就感马上就起来了。之后我去巴黎买了几件T-shirt,逛了逛鞋店,但是没有发现我想要的German army trainer,随后我去买了一大堆食物,去导师家里教中文,最后回家。
最重要的其实是在路上和在port royal附近长椅上的阅读时间,我回顾了之前读的Rilke写得一封信,又开始了下一篇的阅读。他有太多话都充满智慧,我每次读完后都会有强烈触动,其中很大一部分我也非常想推荐给你,
我为你附上今天读到非常喜欢的一部分
“If you hold close to nature, to what is simple in it, to the small things people hardly see and which all of a sudden can become great and immeasurable; if you have this love for what is slight, and quite unassumingly, as a servant, seek to win the confidence of what seems poor – then everything will grow easier, more unified and somehow more conciliatory, not perhaps in the intellect, which, amazed, remains a step behind, but in your deepest consciousness, watchfulness and knowledge. You are so young, all still lies ahead of you, and I should like to ask you, as best I can, dear Sir, to be patient towards all that is unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms, like books written in a foreign tongue. Do not now strive to uncover answers: they cannot be given you because you have not been able to live them. And what matters is to live everything. Live the questions for now. Perhaps then you will gradually, without noticing it, live your way into the answer, one distant day in the future. Perhaps you do carry within yourself the possibility of forming and creating, as a particularly happy and pure way of living. School yourself for it, but take what comes in complete trust, and as long as it is a product of your will, of some kind of inner necessity, accept it and do not despise it. Sex is difficult, true. But difficult things are what we were set to do, almost everything serious is difficult, and everything is serious. If you only acknowledge this and manage from your own resources, from your own disposition and nature, from your own experience and childhood and strength, to win your way towards a relationship to sex that is wholly your own (not influenced by convention and custom), then you have no need to fear losing yourself and becoming unworthy of your best possession.“
“Live the questions for now.”希望这句话能帮到现在的你。
我和导师的沟通也让人愉悦,我也在此附上他刚给我发的邮件
“Jiayu, hi!
Thank you for sharing with me your thoughts. I think you are going in the right direction, but it is worth making statements concerning the closed and open chains more rigorous. Let us concentrate our efforts on this question. If we succeed, we will do the same for the random walk on the tree with a linearly growing branching. This would allow us to write a good paper (I hope so). I met today at Institute H. Poincare Zdzislaw Burda who wrote a paper on maximal entropy random walks and told him what we are doing. He liked these thoughts.
Yours,
