Scarlet Darkness- Chapter 5

很快我就进一步了解了这朵花儿。
I soon learned to know this flower better.
在小王子的星球上，过去一直都生长着一些只有一层花瓣的很简单的花。
On the little prince's planet the flowers had always been very simple.
这些花非常小，一点也不占地方，从来也不会去打搅任何人。
They had only one ring of petals; they took up no room at all; they were a trouble to nobody.
她们早晨在草丛中开放，晚上就凋谢了。
One morning they would appear in the grass, and by night they would have faded peacefully away.
有一天，不知从哪里来了一颗种子，忽然一天这种子发了芽。
But one day, from a seed blown from no one knew where, a new flower had come up;
小王子特别仔细地监视着这棵与众不同的小苗：
and the little prince had watched very closely over this small sprout which was not like any other small sprouts on his planet.
这玩艺说不定是一种新的猴面包树。
It might, you see, have been a new kind of baobab.
但是，这小苗不久就不再长了，而且开始孕育着一个花朵。

The shrub soon stopped growing, and began to get ready to produce a flower.
看到在这棵苗上长出了一个很大很大的花蕾，小王子感觉到从这个花苞中一定会出现一个奇迹。
The little prince, who was present at the first appearance of a huge bud, felt at once that some sort of miraculous apparition must emerge from it.
然而这朵花藏在它那绿茵茵的房间中用了很长的时间来打扮自己。
But the flower was not satisfied to complete the preparations for her beauty in the shelter of her green chamber.
她精心选择着她将来的颜色，慢慢腾腾地妆饰着，
She chose her colours with the greatest care. she drest her slowly.
一片片地搭配着她的花瓣，
She adjusted her petals one by one.
她不愿象虞美人那样一出世就满脸皱纹。
She did not wish to go out into the world all rumpled, like the field poppies.
她要让自己带着光艳夺目的丽姿来到世间。
It was only in the full radiance of her beauty that she wished to appear.
是的，她是非常爱美的。
Oh, yes! She was a coquettish creature!
她用好些好些日子天仙般地梳妆打扮。
And her mysterious adornment lasted for days and days.

小王子第18章：花苞中的奇迹

What a difference six months make. If you asked me a year ago what my plans were, I probably would have said something along these lines: “Well, considering Covid restrictions seem to finally be easing, and considering the fact that we haven’t really been in the South of France that long, I think we should probably stay at least another year or two or three. Try to put down some roots. Keep trying1 to build a little community here.”

En este podcast, parte de la serie HABLEMOS DE VIAJES, voy a citar algunas razones que creo son las más comunes por las cuales las personas viajan / viajamos. Antes de que empieces a escuchar este podcast, te pregunto ¿vos por qué viajas? ¿siempre viajas por el mismo motivo? ¿viajar para vos es renovador? ¿cómo se siente? ¿viajas para escapar de la rutina? ¿o tal vez por curiosidad, para saber qué hay del otro lado del mundo?

¿Por qué viajamos?

Aujourd’hui, on revient aux racines du thé, profondément ancrées dans la culture chinoise. À l’origine, dans le Yunnan, le thé n’était pas une boisson de confort : c’était une herbe médicinale, cueillie pour apaiser, soigner, rééquilibrer. Avec le temps, la Chine en a fait un véritable art, du thé vert et oolong du Fujian aux thés rouges ainsi que les thés noirs du Yunnan, chacun façonné par des techniques précises : oxydation, torréfaction, fermentation.
De cet héritage est né le Gong Fu Cha, un rituel raffiné qui met en valeur la complexité des feuilles et la maîtrise du geste.
Avant de se répandre dans le monde entier, le thé a d’abord été une histoire chinoise : une plante, une médecine, puis un art transmis de génération en génération. Aujourd’hui encore, chaque tasse garde un peu de cette profondeur millénaire.
