The Happiness of Feynman Pessoa

Translated by Feynman Pessoa Chen Zihong.

There is no joy in their joy.

How much happiness is there?

And write them down.

Share happiness with others.

Lydia, put down your happy clothes,

We have only one kind of happiness; we can't

Give it to others as a prize.

Let it focus on our happiness.

Each of us is just ourselves, with others.

Joy is for them, not for them.

Remember your slim figure,

Your boundaries taught you.

? 1927 10 October 9th

How many people enjoy the enjoyment?

Did not enjoy their enjoyment, and put it.

Between them and others

Record their happiness.

Ah, Lydia, despite the appearance of pleasure,

Because we only have one kind of enjoyment; we can't

Give it to others as a prize.

Notice that we like it.

Each of us is just ourselves and enjoys it.

Being with others is to enjoy them, not to enjoy them.

Know your body,

Your boundary, teach you.
