On a casual conversation, AL asked me, "Why does everyone think that I've around for ages, although I actually join this department for three years ?"
"Oh, that's because you do such a good job that we all feel the time flies - and that's a sign of happiness and satisfaction." I said, trying to please our chairman's secretary.
On a second thought, isn't that exactly the literal meaning of the Chinese phrase "快活" ?
Alas, therefore, the antonym is "難過".
I never came to realize before Chinese is sometimes very expressive.
And Albert Einstein was completely correct when he commented on the experience of time.
PS. You think there's honey in my mouth ? I'm just practising what Zhuang Zhou (莊周) advised.
