精读课笔记 NETTLES

Love was not an object that could be used or be made use of and we know exactly the limits of our love and would not displace it. If we acted on love, we would take risks. We wouldn't do that or go further in our relationship. We would rather let our love remain as a sweet trickle, which would flow on gently and permanently, and as an underground resource which would never be fully tapped or go dry.
我们深知这份爱情不是用来消费的，也知道爱情的本分，它不会拿任何东西来冒险。它像甜蜜的涓涓细流，亦如深藏地下的源泉，而我们两人之间新的平静好像一个封印，而它稳稳封存地下，不必动用，也不会消失。
