Alicia Keys is at peace with getting older.
艾丽西亚·凯斯平静地面对着年龄的增长。
In an interview with New York magazine's The Cut, the musician, 42, shared that she's embraced aging for many reasons.
在接受纽约杂志The Cut的采访时，这位42岁的音乐家分享了她接受衰老的原因。
"I love getting smarter. I love being more conscious. I love being aware of what I think," she said. "I love being in touch with what I think and being comfortable knowing that what I know is the right thing for me, that I don't have to seek so much validation from everybody else to decide if that's a good thing for me or not."
“我喜欢变得更聪明。我喜欢更有意识。我喜欢知道自己在想什么，”她说。“我喜欢与自己的想法保持联系，并且知道我所知道的对我来说是正确的，我不需要从其他人那里寻求太多的认可来决定这对我来说是否是一件好事。”
Keys also believes that "you get more beautiful as you grow older" because "your heart opens more" and "you have a quality about you that is so much stronger in a way."
凯斯还认为，“随着年龄的增长，你会变得更加美丽”，因为“你的心扉更开放”，“你身上的某种品质在某种程度上变得更加强大”。
The "Diary" singer told the outlet that after starting in the music industry at an early age, she learned how she wanted to express herself over time.
这位演唱《日记》的歌手告诉媒体，在很小的时候就进入了音乐界，随着时间的推移，她学会了如何表达自己。
"It opened my eyes to how I didn’t feel comfortable or beautiful if I didn’t have my armor on, and if I didn’t have all my face and hair and pretty things and nice clothes on that somehow I was less than beautiful or just less than. I realized, like, Whoa, what’s underneath all that?' "
“这让我意识到，如果我不穿盔甲，我就会觉得不舒服或不漂亮，如果我没有把脸、头发、漂亮的东西和漂亮的衣服都穿在身上，不知怎么的，我就不那么漂亮，或者就是不那么漂亮。”我意识到，哇，这下面是什么?’”
That realization was one that influenced Keys' decision to go makeup-free in 2016.
正是这种意识影响了凯斯在2016年决定不化妆。
"I think it was just the awareness of how much we subscribed to social standards of beauty, and I didn’t really think of that before. I just hadn’t thought about it," she said.
“我认为这只是意识到我们在多大程度上遵循了社会对美的标准，而我以前并没有真正意识到这一点。我只是没有想过这个问题，”她说。
In a previous conversation with PEOPLE about her lifestyle beauty brand, Keys Soulcare, Keys said she brought makeup back into her life on her own terms.
在之前接受《人物》杂志采访时，凯斯谈到了她的生活方式美容品牌Keys Soulcare，她说她以自己的方式将化妆带回了生活。
"I get to determine what's beauty to me. Nobody gets to tell me what that is, and I can't tell anybody what that is either. That's why my relationship with [makeup and beauty] has come to the place where it is," she told PEOPLE.
“我可以决定什么是美。没人能告诉我那是什么，我也不能告诉别人那是什么。这就是为什么我和(化妆和美)的关系已经到了这个地步，”她告诉《人物》杂志。
In a birthday tribute in January, her husband, Swizz Beatz, opened up about how he appreciates Keys' sense of self.
在今年1月的生日献礼中，她的丈夫斯威兹·比茨公开表示，他非常欣赏凯斯的自我意识。
"She's one of the purest goddesses alive. What I love about her most is the positive vibes. It's her birthday and I've got a surprise," he said in a song shared on Instagram.
“她是世上最纯洁的女神之一。我最喜欢她的是她积极的氛围。今天是她的生日，我有一个惊喜，”他在Instagram上分享的一首歌中说道。
