再读霜冷长河

2008-03-04T21:55:00.000-08:00

每次写东西都要以很久开头，这次也不例外，因为真的很久没有写东西了。

又是一个疲惫却无法入睡的午夜，不想逼自己睡觉，所以开始读书，余秋雨先生的《霜冷长河》。看完第一辑，已经一个小时了。和之前一样的感觉，感动。为余秋雨先生的叙述而感动，为叙述中的长者，老师，老人和秋霜笼罩的大河而感动。一代人，父辈的父辈，庆幸自己没有去经历那时的令人生气的事，却又羡慕先生所经历的丰富和充实。

回想自己的童年，学生时代，真的有种后悔的感觉。因为本来可以更精彩的十几年，却没有什么可以和书中一样回忆的东西，虚度的感觉。是珍惜的时候了，身边的人，身边的事，自己的爱好，自己的爱人。

余先生讲述的长者，王元化先生和张可老师，平实而伟大。他们的人格，他们的爱情，值得去细细的体会，细细的领受，值得去实践。

最近对人对事出奇的冷漠。今天下班和朋友喝茶的时候讲起最近的一些人和事，突然有了这种感觉，吓了自己一跳。没有了以前那种动力，热心，爱心。最近对宝宝也是这样，很不好，很危险。是时候沉淀一下，找回失去的感觉，改变一下心态了，等到需要心理辅导的时候就不好了。还好，有机会在这个热带的地方体会深秋的凉。（03:23-20080305）

COFFEE OR CUP

COFFEE OR CUP (Facts of life)

" The happiest people in the world are not those who have no problems,but those who learn to live with things that are less than perfect."

* A group of graduates, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor.
* Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.
* Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups - porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling them to help themselves to the coffee.
* When all the students had a cup of coffee, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the simple and cheap ones.
* While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.
* Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee.
* In most cases, it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink.
* What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you
consciously went for the best cups... Then you began eyeing each other's cups.
* Now consider this:
- Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups.
- They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of Life we
live.
- Sometimes, by concentrating on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee
God has provided us. Enjoy your coffee!."

* The happiest people don't have the best of everything.
* They just make the best of everything."

1. Live simply.
2. Love generously.
3. Care deeply.
4. Speak kindly.
5. Leave the rest to God.

You are the miracle, my friend;
Your life either shines a light OR casts a shadow!
Shine a light & Enjoy the Coffee!!!
