1
Imagine that we've been in the apartment by ourselves since the previous evening, and now, at the start of the weekend, it's 11 in the morning.
2
A succession of small bits of bad news have been coming in over the past 24 hours.
3
Someone's unhappy with our performance at work.
4
A customer complained about our attention to detail.
5
We have a traffic fine to pay.
6
The milk is off.
7
A friend is accusing us of not caring enough about them.
8
And then, the final straw, someone we very much hoped to see for dinner, cancelled on us abruptly, with an unconvincing excuse about their mother.
9
We try to keep the different strands separate, but eventually, in the stillness of the small living room, they coalesce into an overwhelming impression.
10
We're not very worthy.
11
There's something wrong with us.
12
We're ugly inside and out.
13
We've been like this since the start.
14
No one likes us.
15
We're going to die alone, unhappy and mediocre.
16
The impression is stronger than we are.
17
We curl into a ball and can't hold back a tear, which rolls onto and is absorbed by the grey-green sofa.
18
Ten minutes pass, then another twenty.
19
Finally, we can't take it any longer.
20
We have to pull ourselves out of the spin.
21
So, with a newfound urgency, we grab our jacket, run downstairs and head for the nearby park.
22
This expanse of green was laid out by a group of enlightened planners and municipal engineers a few generations ago.
23
There's an inner and an outer circle, a small fountain, a playground and a statue of a man who pioneered research into bees.
24
More importantly, the park has very little idea of us.
25
It hasn't heard of our place of employment.
26
It doesn't have any views on our romantic life.
27
It couldn't care less whether we're alive or dead.
28
And the ignorance, far from crushing us further, has an immediate soothing effect.
29
A grand oak tree that's been sitting patiently in this spot for 150 years at least, has priorities blessedly far from our own.
30
It's pulling nutrients from the soil, it's showing its freshest, newest leaves to the sun.
31
It's providing a nesting place for robins and an athletic park for grey squirrels.
32
The indifference is not nature's alone.
33
There's a person in scrubs on a break from the nearby hospital, sitting on a bench with a flask of tea.
34
They might later be fixing up catheters on the children's ward or ministering to a dying nonagenarian.
35
To their left, a little boy is playing tag with his father.
36
His joyful screams are unabashed.
37
It's a game, but something very serious, about love and self-esteem and having a home, is also being exercised.
38
Overhead planes, perhaps heading back from Singapore or Madrid, are locking onto the final approach beacons at the airport to the west.
39
In the distance, a line of uncomplaining pylons is bringing in electricity from the coast to power hair dryers and video games.
40
Our strange, extraordinary, pathetic species in all our glory, complexity and mundanity.
41
With all this in view, it suddenly seems not to matter quite so much that we may or may not be a wretch, that a lover has let us down.
42
Heaven knows they might have their reasons and we aren't perfect either.
43
or that we should, in all fairness, probably make more of an effort with our career.
44
The individual ego diminishes.
45
We let ourselves dissolve into a wider realm.
46
What happens to us no longer has to be the measure of everything.
47
We are, in part, also the trees, the houses, the clouds overhead, the pigeon who has come to peck at a leftover sandwich,
48
and the young boy now being hugged tightly by his dad.
49
Our ultimate fate ceases to concern us so tightly.
50
What does it matter quite so much what we're worth or where we end up?
51
We rejoin the ocean from which we've been in frightened exile for too long.
52
None of the elements that have helped us to recover our balance care to articulate a theory of existence.
53
They may have one nevertheless.
54
The oak tree has its own distinctive silent take on love, achievement, success and power, as do the clouds,
55
the robins, the squirrels and the contrails.
56
Each one of them is whispering very quietly indeed, matter less, forget more, open your heart, let go of your resentments, surrender.
57
We can be so much happier
58
when we manage for a time to still the clamour of the I and live less intimately with ourselves,
59
when we stop insisting that everything that happens to us must say something profound about us, when we can wear our fate more lightly.
60
We may end up alone, we may be foolish, we may be sad.
61
None of it, the park tells us, might matter too much anyway.
62
We'll cope, after all, perhaps we'll go to the cinema alone tonight, or have a drink on the terrace.
63
We haven't just taken a walk, we've had a covert philosophy lesson.

이 영상으로 연습하는 방법
- 먼저 말하지 않고 영상을 끝까지 듣고 모르는 단어를 적어 둡니다.
- 0.75배속으로 한 문장씩 섀도잉을 시작하고, 익숙해지면 보통 속도로 돌아갑니다.
- 자신의 목소리를 녹음해 원본과 비교하고, cloud, fate, impression 같은 단어에 특히 주의합니다.
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
