Miss Winnie Daily Cantonese Small Talk, Ep. 62 Neighbors' Rice Smells Better

Ep. 62 Neighbors' Rice Smells Better

Hello 大家 好

今日 呢, 已經 係 二 零 二 三 年 嘅 四 月 二十 四 號 星期一

而家 係 下晝 嘅 十二 點 十一

係 十二 點 五十 五 分

仲有 五 分鐘 就 一 點 啦

咁 我 今日 呢 就 係

喺 屋企 . 點解 呢 ?

係 因為 今日 係 學校 嘅 假期

咁 就 唔使 返工

咁 我 今個 禮拜 呢個 周末 , weekend 呢

係 一個 長 周末 , long weekend 呀

因為 啱啱 嘅 星期五 學校 假期 啦

跟住 星期五 星期六 星期日

加埋 今日 星期一 有 4 日 假期 喎

呀,正 呀 ! 不過 呢 , 咁 你 話, 呀, 放假 有 咩 做好 呢, 咁樣 ?

平時 我 放假 其實

大部分 時間 我 都 係 即係 宅 喺 屋企 啦

即係 留 喺 屋企 做 宅女 呀

咁 我 啱啱 就 睇咗 一啲 YouTube 片

咁 我 睇咗 乜嘢 片 呢 ?

咁 即係 一啲 香港 嘅 walking video

嗰啲 散步 呀 , 行路 嘅 片 呀

唔知 你 有冇 睇過 呢 ?

咁 呀, 我 自己 呢 , 就 好 鍾意 睇 呢 啲 ,

walking videos 嘅,呢啲 散步 片 ,

因為 呢,當 我 睇 嗰啲 片 嘅 時候 呢

我 就 好似 自身 喺 個 地方

It seems that I am right there when I am watching those videos I will assume, Oh I am there and it's so interesting.

咁 我 覺得 非常之 有趣

特別 係 我 已經 話 超過 三年

冇 返 香港 囉, 咁 所以 呢

都 會 掛住 香港 嘅 嗰啲 街 呀 , the streets

嗰啲 街 啦 香港 嗰啲 鋪頭 啦 , shops

咁 所以 呢 呢啲 散步 片 呢 就 好 幫 到 手 啦

so those videos help me a lot

非常之 幫 到 我 呀

咁 我 啱啱 呢 就 睇 完 幾 條

係 我 以前 住 嘅 地區 嘅 片

地區 districts

咁 我 以前 喺 香港 呢

就 住 喺 慈 雲 山區 , Chi Wan Shan district

咁 我 就 住 喺 個 區 啦 超過 二十 年 呀

嘅 父母 爸爸媽媽 啦

都 仲 係 住 喺 嗰度 嘅 so my parents are still living in that district

咁 所以 呢 我 都 好 掛住 嗰個 地方

咁 我 啱啱 睇 片 嘅 時候 呢

嘩! 就 好似 即係 行 緊 嗰啲 鋪頭 呀

行 緊 嗰啲 街 咁 而 嗰啲 街 有啲 鋪頭 呢

係 我 以前 日日 都 會 經過 嘅

so I passed by those shops and streets

daily when I was living in Hong Kong

咁 呀 你哋 都 可以 search 下 喎

咁 其中 一個 我 好 中意 嘅 channel 呢

係 叫做 Hong Kong map

咁 你 打 Hong Kong and then 打 map MAP map

咁 就 會 有 嗰 啲 video 架啦, 咁樣

而 另 一個 我 好 中意 嘅 channel 啦

叫做 Hong Kong Walker

咁 你 打 Hong Kong and then Walker, W-A-L-K-E-R

咁 你 就 可以 搵 到

個 channel 咁 我 有 好多 香港 嘅 街道 嘅 片 啦

咁 呀,佢 都 會 一路 拍片 呀 會 講 廣東話 嘅

你哋 都 可以 一路 睇 住 片

一路 會 聽到 一啲 廣東話

咁 我 一路 睇 呢啲 walking video 嘅 時候 呢

咁 我 都 有 一句 說話

喺 我嘅 腦海 中 彈 咗 出嚟 呀

So popped up,彈出 嚟

So a sentence popped up in my mind when I was watching those walking videos

咁 就 係 啦 叫做 ' 隔離 飯 香 ', ‘ 隔離飯香 '

Have you ever heard this phrase before?

你 有冇 聽過 呢 一句 廣東話 說話

叫做 隔離飯香 呢

咁 乜嘢 意思 呢, 咁樣

隔離飯香 呢 同 英文 有 一句

叫做 The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence

係 非常之 類似 都係 咁 嘅 意思

即係 話 呢 人哋 嘅 嘢 呢, 好似, 唔, 好啲 喎, 咁樣

literally it means neighbours' rice smells better, neighbours' rice smells better

隔離飯香 , 香 is smells good, and 隔離 can mean the one nearby or here 隔離 can mean neighbours.

隔離飯香

咁 點解 我 咁樣 諗 到 呢 一句 說話 呢

就係 因為 如果 我 身處 喺 香港 嘅 時候 啦

我 就 會 好 羨慕 , envy. 好 羨慕

嘩!嗰啲 住 喺 外國 嘅 人 ,

有 好多 好 闊落 嘅 空間 呀,唔會 咁 嘈吵 啦

有 好多 嘅 自然 嘅 景觀 呀

some natural scenery, 自然 嘅 風景 呀, 自然 嘅 景觀 呀

因為 天空 呢, 好大 咁樣, 咁 好似 呢 感覺 . 好 relaxing 咁樣, 好 輕鬆 嘅

咁,但係 呢 譬如 我 而家 身處 喺 美國 啦

真係 一個 比較 闊落 嘅 空間 spacious

好 闊落 嘅 一個 居住 嘅 空間 呀

我 係 周圍 見到 好多 嘅 綠 草 , green grasses.

好多 樹 , 無 乜 人 呀, 咁樣

咁 我 睇 住 呢啲 , walking videos

睇 到 香港 呢 嘩 ! 咁 方便 嘅 我 睇法 .

話 原來 我 以前 住 嗰 度 呢

我 真係 呢 一 落 樓下 . 真係 行 一分鐘

Just one minute walk. 一分鐘

咁 我 就 可以 去 到 一個 shopping mall

一個 呢 個 購物中心 啦 一個 商場

嗰個 商場 呢 有 七 層 嘅 七 層 seven levels 有 七 層

咁 真係 乜嘢 鋪頭 都 有

You can find all sorts of stores and restaurants in that shopping mall

你 真係 搵 到 所有 嘅 店舖

所有 唔同 種類 嘅 餐廳 都 有 呀,

即係 , 非常之 方便

咁 我 有 supermarket, 有 超市 , 有 wet market: 有 街市

咁 , 真係 你 諗 到 嘅 要 買 嘅 嘢

譬如 衫 呀 , 鞋 呀 ,零食 呀 , 眼鏡 呀 : optical, or glasses,

Daily necessity, 日用品 呀

全部 都 可以 呢 , 一 落 街 你 就 入去 個 商場

咁 就 已經 搵 到 啦 呢 啲 嘢

咁 而家 話 我 要 去 一啲 地方 買嘢 係 鋪頭

咁 一 係 你 就 上網 買 啦 online, amazon

或者 上網 買 超市 嘢 都 ok

但 如果 你 要 去 嗰啲 鋪頭 呢

咁 一定 真係 要 揸車 去 咁 樣

咁 所以 呢 就 覺得 , 嘩 ! 咩 以前 嘩 我 住 嗰度 咁 方便 嘅

跟住 我 就 覺得 我 爸爸媽媽 而家 住 嗰度

雖然 地方 嗰 個 apartment 啦, 個個 單位 呢

係 好 細 嘅 即係 二百 零 呎

200 feet, something, 二百 零 呎

咁 但係 呢 一 落 街 啦 就 好 方便

咁 其實 係 香港 啦 , 好多 一啲 住屋 嘅

單位 呀 housing, most of the housing 其實 都 好細 啦

都 係 好 出名 㗎 啦

你哋 都 會 知 架啦 一般 我 諗 都 係 二百 幾 呎 三百 幾 呎

如果 有錢 啲 嘅 人 呢 , 咁 就 可能 個 單位 當然 可以 大 啲 五百 呀

至 七 百 呎 呀 , 或者 你 再 有錢 啲 嘅

一 千 呢 啦 就 已經 係 好 有錢 好 有錢 嘅 人 先 至

可以 五 千 呎 以上 嘅 單位

但 一般 好多 嘅 public housing 一啲 公共 房屋

公共 房屋 都 係 可能 三百 呎 呀

左右 啦 , 平均 都 係 可能

三 個 人 四 個 人 住 三百 呎 左右 嘅 單位 咁樣

咁 呀, 所以 呢 我 就 會 諗 起 呢 啲 真 係 隔離飯香 呀

當 你 身處 係 一個 地方 你 就 會 覺得

嘩!人哋 嗰度 啲 嘢 真係 好 啦

你 就 好 羨慕

咁 但 當 你 真係 去到 嗰 個 地方 你 睇 返 你 又 會 覺得

唔 係 喎 其實 以前

嗰度 又 真係 都 唔錯 又 唔係 咁 差 咋 喎 , 咁樣

所以 永遠 呀,都 好 難 呀,係 滿足 嘅 有時候 即係

Its hard to feel satisfied. That is the truth of human hearts.

好難 呢 , 去 滿足 人心 啊

好 容易 就係 覺得 呢, 人哋 嗰啲 好

咁 但係 正如 我 上 一集 喺 podcast 嗰度 分享 呀

真係 要 避免 avoid, 避免

去 比較 唔 減少 一啲 比較

比較 係 comparison

比較 減少 去 同 其他人 比較

因為 呢 永遠 呀 係 世事 世界 上 嘅 事

唔 , 係 冇 呢 個 兩全其美

好 啦 , 兩全其美 呢

即係 之 兩樣 都 係 完美 嘅 咁樣

咁 咩 係 兩樣 完美 啦

即係 我哋 廣東話 又 話 好似 一個 coin 一個 銀仔 呀

都 有 兩面 two sides 咁樣

咁 凡事 everything, 凡事 , 都 係 有 兩面 咁 樣 睇 嘅

有 好 嘅 一面 呀 , 有 唔好 嘅 一面 嘅

咁 呀 好 難 呢 , 兩面 都 係 perfect 咁樣

真係 冇 , 係 呀 . 呢 個 世界 係 冇 一啲 兩全其美

咁 呀 , 譬如 你 喺 香港 住 嘅 嘅 時候

你 可以 享受 好 方便 嘅 生活 啦

咁 但係 當然 呢 , 住 嘅 環境 就 好細 呀

好 嘈吵 呀 , 好大 壓力 呀 .

工作 嗰 個 時間 好長 呀 .

好 急促 呀 嘅 生活 啦

咁 但係 你 嚟到 美國 , 係 啦 , 咁樣

地方 大 呀 , 冇 咁 嘈 呀 ,

咁樣 , 但係 又 冇 好似 香港 個 種 生活

咁 方便 你 一 落 街 就 可以 買 到 唔同 嘅 嘢

一 落 街 就 有 好多 唔同 種類 嘅

餐廳 呀 , 食肆 呀 、 鋪頭 呀 , 咁 樣

咁 所以 呢 永遠 都 唔 能夠 兩全其美 嘅

咁 如果 你 永遠 呢

喺 一個 位置 只係 去 羨慕 人哋 有 嘅 嘢 啦

咁 你 永遠 都 唔 開心 嘅 呀 嘛

咁 所以 就要 學識 係 , 唔 , 欣賞 你 而家 有 嘅 嘢 囉

To appreciate what you have now 你 欣賞 你 而家 有 嘅 嘢

同埋 其實 人生 都,。。。

我 覺得 都 唔係 一個 停滯 係 同 一個 階段 嘅 啦

停滯 係 , Just stay at one stage all the time.

So I think life is just like floating along, like a river flowing along You will experience different stages, different situations

咁 呀 , 人生 都 好似 一條 河流 咁 去 不斷 流動 呀

好難 係 , 即係 喺 同 一個 情況 永永遠遠 , Forever, 咁 嘅

所以 就 係 當 你 而家 喺 呢 一個 情況 , 呢 一個 Situation, 呢 個 情況

咁 就 學習 去 享受 enjoy 你 而家 呢 一個 嘅 處境 啦

處境 都 可以 計 Situation 囉

咁 你 就 學習 享受

你 而家 嘅 處境 咁樣

咁 到 你 帶 即係 帶 一 啦

可能 你 又 會 去 到 另 一個 處境 架啦

咁 呀 到 時候 你 又 可以 去 體驗 一啲 新 嘅 , 新 嘅 嘢

Experience some new things

又 去 享受 個陣 時 個 處境 帶 畀 你 嘅 一啲 新 嘅 體驗 咁樣

呢 個 都 係 畀 自己 一個 提醒 啦

如果 你 永遠 都 係 呢 個 情況

你 就 係 覺得 隔離飯香

咁 你 永遠 都 唔 會 滿足

永遠 都 唔 開心

但係 你 而家 係 呢個 情況

你 可以 懷念 嘅

即係 Miss 你 可以 Miss 以前 咁 樣

但係 唔好 淨係 成日 去 諗 住 以前 有 嘅 嘢 咁樣

因為 一路 要 去 Move on 一路 要, 咁樣, 去 前進, 去 Move on,去 前進 咁樣

係 喇 , 呢 個 就 係 我 今日 想同 大家 分享 下 架啦

咁 我 喺 呢度 都 好 感謝 你哋 一路 嘅 支持 同埋 收聽

如果 你 都 鍾意 我 呢個 Podcast

又 未 俾 Review 我嘅 呢

你 都 可以 幫 我 撳 一個 Review

或者 去 我 個 YouTube Channel

咁 你 都 可以 俾 個 Like 我 呀

真係 一個 比較 闊落 嘅 空間 spacious ||relatively|||space|roomy It's really a spacious space.

好 闊落 嘅 一個 居住 嘅 空間 呀 ||||||space|

我 係 周圍 見到 好多 嘅 綠 草 , green grasses. ||around||||green|grass||green grasses I see a lot of green grasses around me.

好多 樹 , 無 乜 人 呀, 咁樣 So many trees, so few people, so much so.

咁 我 睇 住 呢啲 , walking videos

睇 到 香港 呢 嘩 ! 咁 方便 嘅 我 睇法 . |||||||||opinion Look at Hong Kong! So convenient I see.

話 原來 我 以前 住 嗰 度 呢 I used to live there.

我 真係 呢 一 落 樓下 . 真係 行 一分鐘 ||||down|downstairs||| I really fell downstairs. It's really okay. One minute.

Just one minute walk. 一分鐘 Just one minute walk. One minute

咁 我 就 可以 去 到 一個 shopping mall ||||||||mall Then I can go to a shopping mall

一個 呢 個 購物中心 啦 一個 商場 |||shopping center|||shopping mall A shopping center, a mall

嗰個 商場 呢 有 七 層 嘅 七 層 seven levels 有 七 層 |shopping mall|||seven|levels|||||levels|||

咁 真係 乜嘢 鋪頭 都 有 There are really all kinds of shops

你 真係 搵 到 所有 嘅 店舖 ||||||stores You really found all the stores

所有 唔同 種類 嘅 餐廳 都 有 呀, ||types|||||

即係 , 非常之 方便

咁 我 有 supermarket, 有 超市 , 有 wet market: 有 街市 |||supermarket||supermarket|||wet market||

咁 , 真係 你 諗 到 嘅 要 買 嘅 嘢

譬如 衫 呀 , 鞋 呀 ,零食 呀 , 眼鏡 呀 : optical, or glasses, |||shoes|shoes|snacks||glasses||||glasses

Daily necessity, 日用品 呀 |necessity|daily necessities| Daily necessity, daily items!

全部 都 可以 呢 , 一 落 街 你 就 入去 個 商場 |||||||||||shopping mall All of them can be found. Once you go down to the street, you just enter the mall.

咁 就 已經 搵 到 啦 呢 啲 嘢 Then you can already find these things.

咁 而家 話 我 要 去 一啲 地方 買嘢 係 鋪頭 ||||||||||store Then they say I have to go to some place to buy something from the shop.

咁 一 係 你 就 上網 買 啦 online, amazon |||||go online||||Amazon Then you can buy it online, amazon

或者 上網 買 超市 嘢 都 ok Or you can go online and buy some supermarket stuff.

但 如果 你 要 去 嗰啲 鋪頭 呢 But if you want to go to those shops,

咁 一定 真係 要 揸車 去 咁 樣 Then you definitely have to drive there.

咁 所以 呢 就 覺得 , 嘩 ! 咩 以前 嘩 我 住 嗰度 咁 方便 嘅 ||"in that case"||feel|||||||||| So that's why I feel like, wow! What was it like before when I lived there, so convenient.

跟住 我 就 覺得 我 爸爸媽媽 而家 住 嗰度 Then I felt that my parents are living there now.

雖然 地方 嗰 個 apartment 啦, 個個 單位 呢 ||||apartment|||| Although the place is an apartment, each unit is very small.

係 好 細 嘅 即係 二百 零 呎 ||||||zero|feet It's really small, about two hundred square feet.

200 feet, something, 二百 零 呎 feet|||| 200 feet, something, two hundred zero feet

咁 但係 呢 一 落 街 啦 就 好 方便 Well, but this street is very convenient

咁 其實 係 香港 啦 , 好多 一啲 住屋 嘅 |||||||housing| Well, actually, it's in Hong Kong, many residential properties

單位 呀 housing, most of the housing 其實 都 好細 啦 ||||||units|||| The units are quite small, most of the housing is actually very small.

都 係 好 出名 㗎 啦 They are quite famous.

你哋 都 會 知 架啦 一般 我 諗 都 係 二百 幾 呎 三百 幾 呎 ||||||||||||feet|three hundred|| You all would know, generally I think they are around two hundred something square feet to three hundred something square feet.

如果 有錢 啲 嘅 人 呢 , 咁 就 可能 個 單位 當然 可以 大 啲 五百 呀 |rich||||||||||||||| If there are rich people, then it is possible that a unit can of course be larger than 500

至 七 百 呎 呀 , 或者 你 再 有錢 啲 嘅 to||hundred||||||||

一 千 呢 啦 就 已經 係 好 有錢 好 有錢 嘅 人 先 至 |thousand|||||||||||||only then A thousand dollars is already a very rich person.

可以 五 千 呎 以上 嘅 單位 ||thousand|feet|over|| Units over 5,000 feet are allowed

但 一般 好多 嘅 public housing 一啲 公共 房屋 |generally|||||||housing

公共 房屋 都 係 可能 三百 呎 呀 |housing||||three hundred|| Public housing can be about three hundred square feet.

左右 啦 , 平均 都 係 可能 ||average||| Around that, on average it might be.

三 個 人 四 個 人 住 三百 呎 左右 嘅 單位 咁樣 |||||||||||unit| Three or four people live in a unit of about three hundred square feet like that.

咁 呀, 所以 呢 我 就 會 諗 起 呢 啲 真 係 隔離飯香 呀 |||||||||||||smell of rice| So, I will think of the aroma of the neighboring food.

當 你 身處 係 一個 地方 你 就 會 覺得 when||are in||||||| When you are in a place, you will feel.

嘩!人哋 嗰度 啲 嘢 真係 好 啦 Wow! The things over there are really great!

你 就 好 羨慕 |||envy You are really envious.

咁 但 當 你 真係 去到 嗰 個 地方 你 睇 返 你 又 會 覺得 |but|||||||||||||| But when you actually get to that place, you look back and you will feel

唔 係 喎 其實 以前 No, actually, in the past

嗰度 又 真係 都 唔錯 又 唔係 咁 差 咋 喎 , 咁樣 ||||||||that bad||| It's really not that bad, it's not that bad.

所以 永遠 呀,都 好 難 呀,係 滿足 嘅 有時候 即係 |forever|||||||satisfy||| So, it is always hard to be satisfied, sometimes it is

Its hard to feel satisfied. That is the truth of human hearts. It is|||||||||possessive particle|human|hearts

好難 呢 , 去 滿足 人心 啊 ||||human heart| It's so hard to fulfill one's heart.

好 容易 就係 覺得 呢, 人哋 嗰啲 好 |easy||think|||| It's easy to think that they are good

咁 但係 正如 我 上 一集 喺 podcast 嗰度 分享 呀 ||as||||||there|share| Well, it's just like the last episode I shared on the podcast.

真係 要 避免 avoid, 避免 ||avoid|avoid| Really, need to avoid, avoid

去 比較 唔 減少 一啲 比較 |||reduce|| Going to compare doesn't reduce a bit of comparison

比較 係 comparison comparison||is Comparison is comparison

比較 減少 去 同 其他人 比較 |reduce|||| Compare Decrease Go With Others Compare

因為 呢 永遠 呀 係 世事 世界 上 嘅 事 |||||world affairs|world||| Because there are always things in the world, things in the world.

唔 , 係 冇 呢 個 兩全其美 |||||satisfactory solution No, there is no such thing as a two-way street.

好 啦 , 兩全其美 呢 Alright, a win-win situation then.

即係 之 兩樣 都 係 完美 嘅 咁樣 ||two things|||perfect|| That means both are perfect in this way.

咁 咩 係 兩樣 完美 啦 So what are the two perfect things then?

即係 我哋 廣東話 又 話 好似 一個 coin 一個 銀仔 呀 |||||||coin||silver coin| That is, in our Cantonese, it's like a coin and a silver boy.

都 有 兩面 two sides 咁樣 ||two sides||sides| Everything has two sides.

咁 凡事 everything, 凡事 , 都 係 有 兩面 咁 樣 睇 嘅 |Everything|everything|everything||||two sides|||| So everything, everything, has two sides to it.

有 好 嘅 一面 呀 , 有 唔好 嘅 一面 嘅 |||side|||||side| There is a good side and there is a bad side.

咁 呀 好 難 呢 , 兩面 都 係 perfect 咁樣 |||really|||||perfect| It's really difficult, both sides are perfect like this.

真係 冇 , 係 呀 . 呢 個 世界 係 冇 一啲 兩全其美 There really isn't, yes. There is no such thing as perfect in this world.

咁 呀 , 譬如 你 喺 香港 住 嘅 嘅 時候 Well, for example, when you live in Hong Kong.

你 可以 享受 好 方便 嘅 生活 啦 ||enjoy||||| You can enjoy a convenient life!

咁 但係 當然 呢 , 住 嘅 環境 就 好細 呀 But of course, the living environment is very small

好 嘈吵 呀 , 好大 壓力 呀 . |noisy|||pressure| It's very noisy, so much pressure.

工作 嗰 個 時間 好長 呀 . |that|that|that time|very long| The working hours are very long.

好 急促 呀 嘅 生活 啦 |fast-paced|||| Life is really stressful.

咁 但係 你 嚟到 美國 , 係 啦 , 咁樣 So, when you come to America, right, like this.

地方 大 呀 , 冇 咁 嘈 呀 , |||||noisy| The place is big, not so noisy.

咁樣 , 但係 又 冇 好似 香港 個 種 生活 |||||||type of|lifestyle Like this, but it’s not quite the same kind of life as in Hong Kong.

咁 方便 你 一 落 街 就 可以 買 到 唔同 嘅 嘢 |||||street|||buy|||| You can buy different things as soon as you walk down the street.

一 落 街 就 有 好多 唔同 種類 嘅 There are so many different kinds of people on the streets.

餐廳 呀 , 食肆 呀 、 鋪頭 呀 , 咁 樣 ||restaurant||shop||| Restaurant, eatery, shop, that's how it is.

咁 所以 呢 永遠 都 唔 能夠 兩全其美 嘅 So it can never be both sides are beautiful.

咁 如果 你 永遠 呢 So if you always...

喺 一個 位置 只係 去 羨慕 人哋 有 嘅 嘢 啦 In a position to envy what people have.

咁 你 永遠 都 唔 開心 嘅 呀 嘛

咁 所以 就要 學識 係 , 唔 , 欣賞 你 而家 有 嘅 嘢 囉 |||knowledge|||appreciate|||||| So, we have to learn how to, uh, appreciate what you have.

To appreciate what you have now 你 欣賞 你 而家 有 嘅 嘢 To appreciate what you have now you appreciate what you have right now.

同埋 其實 人生 都,。。。 |actually|life| And actually, life is...

我 覺得 都 唔係 一個 停滯 係 同 一個 階段 嘅 啦 |||||stagnation||||stage|| I feel that it's not a stagnation at one stage.

停滯 係 , Just stay at one stage all the time. Stagnation is, Just stay at one stage all the time.

So I think life is just like floating along, like a river flowing along You will experience different stages, different situations |||||||drifting||||river|||||||phases||circumstances So I think life is just like floating along, like a river flowing along You will experience different stages, different situations

咁 呀 , 人生 都 好似 一條 河流 咁 去 不斷 流動 呀 |||||a river|river|||continuously|flow| Well, life is like a river continuously flowing.

好難 係 , 即係 喺 同 一個 情況 永永遠遠 , Forever, 咁 嘅 |||||||forever|||

所以 就 係 當 你 而家 喺 呢 一個 情況 , 呢 一個 Situation, 呢 個 情況 ||||||||||||situation||| Therefore, when you are in this situation, this situation, this situation, this situation, this situation, this situation, this situation, this situation, this situation, this situation, this situation, this situation, this situation, this situation, this situation, this situation.

咁 就 學習 去 享受 enjoy 你 而家 呢 一個 嘅 處境 啦 ||||enjoy|||||||situation|

處境 都 可以 計 Situation 囉 situation|||count||

咁 你 就 學習 享受 ||||enjoyment So you learn to enjoy.

你 而家 嘅 處境 咁樣 |||situation| This is your current situation.

咁 到 你 帶 即係 帶 一 啦 |||||bring|| So when you bring it, just bring one.

可能 你 又 會 去 到 另 一個 處境 架啦 ||||||||situation| Maybe you will go to another situation.

咁 呀 到 時候 你 又 可以 去 體驗 一啲 新 嘅 , 新 嘅 嘢 ||||||||experience||||new|of| Then at that time you can experience some new things.

Experience some new things Experience some new things

又 去 享受 個陣 時 個 處境 帶 畀 你 嘅 一啲 新 嘅 體驗 咁樣 ||enjoy|time|||situation||||||||experience| Enjoy a new experience in a time and place.

呢 個 都 係 畀 自己 一個 提醒 啦 This is a reminder to myself.

如果 你 永遠 都 係 呢 個 情況 |||||||situation If you will always be in this situation

你 就 係 覺得 隔離飯香 You feel that you are separated from the smell of the food.

咁 你 永遠 都 唔 會 滿足 Then you will never be satisfied.

永遠 都 唔 開心 You will never be happy.

但係 你 而家 係 呢個 情況 But you are currently in this situation.

你 可以 懷念 嘅 ||miss| You can miss it.

即係 Miss 你 可以 Miss 以前 咁 樣 that is||||||| It means Miss, you can miss the way things used to be.

但係 唔好 淨係 成日 去 諗 住 以前 有 嘅 嘢 咁樣 ||only||||||||| But don't just keep thinking about what you had in the past.

因為 一路 要 去 Move on 一路 要, 咁樣, 去 前進, 去 Move on,去 前進 咁樣 ||||||||||move forward|||||move forward| Because you need to keep moving on, you need to, you know, go forward, go move on, go forward like that.
