26、50 people in the room.40. Ill call you if I find something useful.奔波在俗世里,不知从何时起,飘来一股清流,逼着每个人优秀。人过四十,已然不惑。我们听过别人的歌,也唱过自己的曲,但谁也逃不过岁月的审视,逃不过现实的残酷。如若,把心中的杂念抛开,苟且的日子里,其实也能无比诗意。借一些时光,寻一处宁静,听听花开,看看花落,翻一本爱读的书,悟一段哲人的赠言,原来,日升月落,一切还是那么美。洗不净的浮沉,留给雨天;悟不透的凡事,交给时间。很多时候,人生的遗憾,不是因为没有实现,而是沉于悲伤,错过了打开心结的时机。有人说工作忙、应酬多,哪
27、有那么多的闲情逸致啊?记得鲁迅有句话:“时间就像海绵里的水,只要挤总是有的。”不明花语,却逢花季。一路行走,在渐行渐远的时光中,命运会给你一次次洗牌,但玩牌的始终是你自己。坦白的说,我们遇到困扰,经常会放大自己的苦,虐待自己,然后落个遍体鳞伤,可怜兮兮地向世界宣告:自己没救了!可是,那又怎样?因为,大多数人关心的都是自己。一个人在成年后,最畅快的事,莫过于经过一番努力后,重新认识自己,改变自己。学会了独自、沉默,不轻易诉说。因为,更多的时候,诉说毫无意义。伤心也好,开心也好,过去了,都是曾经。每个人都要追寻活下去的理由,心怀美好,期待美好,这个世界,就没有那么糟糕。或许,你也会有这样的情节,两
28、个人坐在一起,杂乱无章的聊天,突然你感到无聊,你渴望安静,你想一个人咀嚼内心的悲与喜。透过窗格,发着呆,走着神,搜索不到要附和的词。那一刻,你明白了,这世间不缺一起品茗的人,缺的是一个与你同步的灵魂。没有了期望的懂,还是把故事留给自己吧!每个人都是一座孤岛,颠沛流离,浪迹天涯。有时候,你以为找到了知己,其实,你们根本就是两个世界的人。花,只有在凋零的时候,才懂得永恒就是在落红中重生;人,只有在落魄的时候,才明白力量就是在破土中崛起?.因为防备,因为经历,我们学会了掩饰,掩饰自己内心的某些真实,也在真实中,扬起无懈可击的微笑,解决一个又一个的困扰。人生最容易犯的一个错误,就是把逝去的当作最美的风
29、景。所以,不要活在虚妄的世界,不要对曾经存在假设,不要指望别人太多。有些情,只可随缘,不可勉强;有些人,只可浅交,不可入深;有些话,只可会意,不可说穿。或许,有这么一段情,陪你度过漫长冰冷的寒冬;有那样一个人,给你抑郁的天空画上了温暖的春阳。但时光,总会吹散很多往事,把过去一片片分割,移植到不同区域,并贴上标签,印着不同的定义,也定义着自己的人生态度。正如庄子所说:“唯至人乃能游于世不避,顺人而不失己。”外在的世界,只是一个形式,而你内在的世界,才是真正的江山。丰富自己,取悦自己,随缘,随顺,随境,你的心才会敞开,才会接纳更多的有可能。这样的人生,眼睛里的笑意,尽是踏实与真味。年少时,那些说给蓝天白云的梦想,早已遗忘在风中,再也飞不到岁月的枝头。褪去稚气与懵懂,我更喜欢现在的自己,心里撑着宽阔,却不动声色。即便,一份静谧的从容是多么的难,但我依旧期待。我相信,人生还会很长,还会一直邂逅,但最美的,必是那个明天的自己。
