那么我们该如何找出生命的意义呢？
The answer,I think,is pretty clear.
我认为答案非常清楚
Meaning itself is simply another piece of the model of reality
意义本身不过就是
that we each built inside our own brains.
每个人在大脑里建构的现实模型其中的一部分
Take this mother and child.
举这位母亲和小孩为例
They each create their own little bubbles of reality in their conscious minds.
他们各自在意识中建构自己所认知的现实世界
The youngster,can create a detailed mental model of his surroundings.
小孩能建立周遭环境 详细的心智模型
Even though he may not fully appreciate the fact he's on the fifth floor.
但他可能无法完全体认 自己其实是在五楼
The mother's reality is also produced by her mind.
母亲认知中的现实也来自于她的意识
And for her,her love for her boy is as real as the telephone in her hand.
对她而言 她对儿子的爱 就如手中拿的电话一样真实
In short: the brain is responsible for not only the reality we perceive
简言之 大脑不只是掌管我们感知的现实情况
but for our emotions and meaning,too.
