Installing Love... Via Tech Support/爱的安装……附技术支持

Taken from seule的家庭主妇笔记. Thanks, Mandy!

Tech Support: Yes, how can I help you?
技术支持:你好,我能为你做什么?

Customer: Well, after much consideration, I've decided to install Love. Can you guide me through the process?
客户:嗯,经过反复考虑之后,我决定安装“爱”。安装过程能得到你的指导吗?

Tech Support: Yes. I can help you. Are you ready to proceed?
技术支持:行。我能帮助你。你做好开始的准备了吗?

Customer: Well, I'm not very technical, but I think I'm ready. What do I do first?
客户:嗯,技术我不是很在行,但我想我准备好了。我该如何开始?

Tech Support: The first step is to open your Heart. Have you located your Heart?
技术支持:第一步是要打开你的“心”。你找到你的“心”了吗?

Customer: Yes, but there are several other programs running now. Is it okay to install Love while they are running?
客户:找到了,可是有其它几个程序正在运行。在它们运行的过程中安装“爱”可以吗?

Tech Support: What programs are running?
技术支持:运行的都是哪些程序?

Customer: Let's see, I have Past Hurt, Low Self-Esteem, Grudge and Resentment running right now.
客户:我看一下,有“过去的伤痛”、“自卑”、“嫉妒”和“怨恨”。

Tech Support: No problem, Love will gradually erase Past Hurt from your current operating system. It may remain in your permanent memory but it will no longer disrupt other programs. Love will eventually override Low Self-Esteem with a module of its own called High Self-Esteem. However, you have to completely turn off Grudge and Resentment. Those programs prevent Love from being properly installed. Can you turn those off?
技术支持:没问题,“爱”会逐渐把“过去的伤痛”从你当前的操作系统中抹去。它可能会一直留在你的永久内存里,但不再 会妨碍其它程序。“爱”最终会用它自己的一个叫作“自尊”的模块取代“自卑”。不过,你得完全关闭“嫉妒”和“怨恨”。这两个程序会妨碍“爱”的正确安 装。你能关闭它们吗?

Customer: I don't know how to turn them off. Can you tell me how?
客户:我不知道怎么关闭。你能告诉我吗?

Tech Support: With pleasure. Go to your start menu and invoke Forgiveness. Do this as many times as necessary until Grudge and Resentment have been completely erased.
技术支持:乐意效劳。打开开始菜单,启动“宽恕”。重复这个步骤,直到“嫉妒”和“怨恨”被完全清除。

Customer: Okay, done! Love has started installing itself. Is that normal?
客户:好了!“爱”开始自动安装了。这正常吗?

Tech Support: Yes, but remember that you have only the base program. You need to begin connecting to other Hearts in order to get the upgrades.
技术支持:正常,但要记住,你只有基本程序。你需要开始与其它“心”建立连接以获取升级。

Customer: Oops! I have an error message already. It says, 'Error - Program not run on external components.' What should I do?
客户:糟糕!我已经收到一个错误信息——“错误-程序无法在外部组件上运行。”我该怎么办?

Tech Support: Don't worry. It means that the Love program is set up to run on Internal Hearts, but has not yet been run on your Heart. In non-technical terms, it simply means you have to Love yourself before you can Love others.
技术支持:别担心。它的意思是,“爱”这个程序设置的是在“心的内部”运行,但还未在你的“心”里启动。用非专业的话说,它的意思就是,你应该先“爱”你自己,才能去“爱”别人。

Customer: So, what should I do?
客户:那我该怎么办?

Tech Support: Pull down Self-Acceptance; then click on the following files: Forgive-Self; Realize Your Worth; and Acknowledge your Limitations.
技术支持:打开“接受自己”,然后点击选取以下文件:“宽恕自己”、“意识到自己的价值”和“认识到自己的局限”。

Customer: Okay, done.
客户:好了。

Tech Support: Now, copy them to the 'My Heart' directory. The system will overwrite any conflicting files and begin patching faulty programming. Also, you need to delete Verbose Self-Criticism from all directories and empty your Recycle Bin to make sure it is completely gone and never comes back.
技术支持:现在把它们复制到“我的心”目录。系统会覆盖所有冲突文件,并开始给出错程序打补丁。你还得从所有目录中删除“不断的自我批评”,然后清空“回收箱”以确定该文件彻底清除不会再回来。

Customer: Got it. Hey! My heart is filling up with new files. Smile is playing on my monitor and Peace and Contentment are copying themselves all over My Heart. Is this normal?
客户:明白了。哎,“我的心”里正在填加新文件。“微笑”显示在我的屏幕上,“平安”和“喜乐”正在“我的心”里自我复制。这正常吗?

Tech Support: Sometimes. For others it takes awhile, but eventually everything gets it at the proper time. So Love is installed and running. One more thing before We hang up. Love is Freeware. Be sure to give it and its various modules to everyone you meet. They will in turn share it with others and return some cool modules back to you.
技术支持:有时是。其它模块可能得等一会儿,但最终一切都会在恰当的时间运行。看来“爱”已经安装好,也开始运行了。挂电话前再告诉你一声。“爱”是免费软件。请一定把它和它的各种模块跟你遇到的每一个人分享。他们也应该与其他人共享,这会给你带回一些很酷的模块。

Customer: Thank you, God.
客户:感谢你,上帝!

seule附言:这是今天从朋友那里收到的邮件,觉得实在太酷,一定要与人分享!所以翻译出来,大家都来安装“爱”。
