9月2日晚，贾斯汀·比伯在ins上发布长文，谈起了自己的年少成名带来的巨大诱惑，以及童星成长过程中要面对的撕裂与痛苦。
2010年，一个16岁的男孩横空出世，一首《Baby》红遍了全球，贾斯汀·比伯，一夜之间成为了全世界最炙手可热的童星。
从14岁被经纪人在YouTube发现，到进入歌坛，发布专辑，他一路大红大紫，获奖无数。那时的他，风光无限，与赛琳娜的爱情故事更是让人津津乐道。
然而，巨大的名利对一个孩子来说，也许并不是一件好事。
随即而来的，是无数的负面新闻：喝酒、飙车、召妓、嗑药、挑衅打架、深陷藏毒风波、因参拜日本靖国神社被禁止来华演出......他成为了全世界最著名的坏小子。
在许多人看来，就像所有曾被金钱名利一瞬间捧上天坛，最后坠落的童星一样，长残、堕落、失去灵、销声匿迹......贾斯汀·比伯，也许也是如此。
但是他回来了。
2015年，在沉寂两年后，比伯发行了新专辑Purpose，专辑里的 What Do You Mean、Where are U Now、Love Yourself......每一首都长期占据着各大榜单，比伯更是凭 Where are U Now获得了人生中的第一个格莱美。
于是，褪去叛逆、专心做音乐的他，又重新被大众接受了。他用音乐才华向所有人证明了，他依然是一个专业、出色的歌手。值得被谅解，也值得重新被爱。
然而在经历了这大起大落、过山车般的一切之后，今年的比伯也不过才 25岁，人生刚刚开始。
让我们来看看全文吧:
It’s hard to get out of bed in the morning with the right attitude when you are overwhelmed with your life, your past, job, responsibilities, emotions, your family, finances, your relationships.When it feels like there’s trouble after trouble after trouble. You start foreseeing the day through lenses of “dread” and anticipate another bad day. A cycle of feeling disappointment after disappointment.
当你的生活、过去、工作、责任、情感、家庭、财务状况和人际关系带来的压力让你喘不过气时，你很难用积极的心态面对每个早晨。当你感到一个又一个麻烦接踵而至，你会带着“恐惧”迎接每一天，并对这一天都没什么好的期待，然后陷入失望连着失望的循环。
Sometimes it can even get to the point where you don’t want to live anymore. Where you feel like it’s never going to change. I can fully sympathize with you. I could not change my mindset.
有时候你甚至可能不想再活下去，因为觉得未来永远也不会改变。对此，我完全能够理解。我无法改变自己的心态。
I am fortunate to have people [in] my life that continue to encourage me to keep going.You see I have a lot of money, clothes, cars, accolades, achievements, awards, and I was still unfulfilled.
我是一个幸运的人，生命中有很多人不断鼓励我继续前进。你看到的我拥有很多钱、很多衣服、很多汽车，还获得了数不清的荣誉、成就和奖项，但我依然不满足。
Have u noticed the statistics of child stars and the outcomes of their life?There is an insane pressure and responsibility put on a child [whose] brain, emotions, frontal lobes (decision making) aren’t developed yet.
你们关注过关于童星和他们后来生活状况的统计分析吗？对于一个大脑、情感、心智还没有发育成熟的孩子来说，这件事是一种大到近乎疯狂的压力和责任。
No rationality, defiant, rebellious, things all of us have to go through. But when you add the pressure of stardom it does something to you that is quite unexplainable.
我们每个人都必须经历不理性、自以为是、叛逆的阶段——可当你还要承担年少成名的压力，你会受到无法解释的复杂影响。
You see I didn’t grow up in a stable home, my parents were 18 separated with no money still young and rebellious as well.
要知道我小时候家庭并不美满，父母在他们18岁时就分手了，那时他们没有钱，还很年轻，而且叛逆。
As my talent progressed and I became ultra successful, it happened within the [span] of two years. My whole world was flipped on its head. I went from a 13 year old boy from a small town to being praised left and right by the world with millions saying how much they loved me and how great I was. I don’t know about you but humility comes with age. You hear these things enough as a young boy and you actually start believing it.
我的天赋让我在两年内迅速崛起，一下子被捧上了天，从一个13岁的小镇男孩成为全世界上百万人的偶像，被人爱戴，受人称赞。我不知道你的情况，但随着年龄的增长，人本应越来越谦逊。一个小男孩听多了这些东西，便开始信以为真。
Rationality comes with age and so does your decision making process (one of the reasons you can’t drink until [you’re] 21 ..everyone did everything for me so I never even learned the fundamentals of responsibility. So by this point I was 18 with no skills in the real world, with millions of dollars and access to whatever I wanted. That is a very scary concept for anyone.
理性本应随着年龄的增长而增长，思维方式也应如此。但我经历的现实是：每件事都有人为我代劳，所以我甚至不知道什么是责任。18岁的我在现实世界中没有任何技能，却身家百万，可以得到我想要的任何东西。这对任何人来说都是一个非常可怕的事情。
By 20, I made every bad decision you could have thought of and went from one of the most loved and adored people in the world to the most ridiculed, judged and hated person in the world!
到20岁，我做了你们能想到的每一个错误决定，从世界上最受爱戴的人沦落为世界上受嘲笑最多、遭苛责最多、最招黑的人。
Being on stage according to studies is the biggest dopamine rush than almost any other activity ... so these massive ups and downs on their own are very hard to manage. You notice a lot of touring bands and people end up having a phase of drug abuse, and I believe [it’s] due to not being able to manage the huge ups and downs that come with being an entertainer.
根据研究，登台演出产生的多巴胺几乎比任何其他活动都要多……这些起落巨大的情绪本身就很难管理。你会发现，很多巡演乐队和艺人最终都有吸毒的经历，我认为这就是因为无法管理好从事演艺事业后所面对的巨大起伏。
I started doing pretty heavy drugs at 19 and abused all of my relationships. I became resentful, disrespectful to women, and angry. I became distant to everyone who loved me, and I was hiding behind a shell of a person that I had become.
我19岁开始滥用药物，辜负了所有的恋情。我变得不尊重女性，怨恨女性，甚至对她们充满愤怒。我疏远了所有爱我的人，躲在厚重的外壳之下。
I felt like I could never turn it around. It’s taken me years to bounce back from all of these terrible decisions, fix broken relationships, and change relationship habits. Luckily god blessed me with extraordinary people who love me for me.
我觉得我再也无法回头了。我花了好几年才从这些糟糕的决定中恢复过来，修补破碎的关系，改变为人处世之道。幸运的是，上帝赐给了我那些非凡的人，他们都懂我爱我。
Now I am navigating the best season of my life: “MARRIAGE!” Which is an amazing crazy new responsibility. You learn patience, trust, commitment, kindness, humility, and all of the things it looks like to be a good man.
如今的我正体验着人生中最美好的时光：婚姻！这是一份很酷、很疯狂的新的责任。你会学会耐心、信任、承诺、善良、谦逊，以及成为一个好人该具备的一切。
All this to say even when the odds are against you keep fighting. Jesus loves you.BE KIND >BE BOLD TODAY AND LOVE PEOPLE TODAY NOT YOUR STANDARDS GOD"S PERFECT UNFAILING LOVE .
我写这篇文章是为了告诉大家，即使身处逆境也不要放弃，要继续奋斗。上帝爱你。今天起，要善良，要坚强，要好好爱别人，不是用你过去的标准，而要像上帝那样，矢志不渝地给予爱。
