先聽聽歌,欣賞一首詩:《As I Began to Love Myself(當我真正開始愛自己)》。這首詩,是查理·卓別林寫於70周歲生日當天,是他回望過往,對人生的感悟。細細品讀,心不孤獨。
As I began to love myself ,
I found that
anguish and emotional sufferingare only warning signs
that I was living against my own truth.
Today, I know,
this is AUTHENTICITY.
當我真正開始愛自己,
我才意識到,
所有的痛苦和情感的折磨,
僅僅是在提醒我:
活着,不要違背自己的本心。
今天,我明白了,
這叫做「真實」。
As I began to love myself,
I freed myself ofanything
that is no good for my health–
food,people,things, situations,
and everything that drew me down
and away from myself.
At first I called this attitude a healthy egoism.
Today, I know it is LOVE OF ONESELF.
當我開始真正愛自己,
我開始遠離所有不健康的東西,
不論是飲食、人物、事情亦或環境,
遠離拖累我、讓我背離了真實自我的一切。
從前的我稱呼這為「有益健康的利己主義」。
今天,我明白了,
這叫做「自愛」。
As I began to love myself ,
I quit trying to always be right,
and ever since I was wrong less of the time.
Today I discovered that is MODESTY.
當我開始真正愛自己,
我不再總想做到永遠正確,
從那時起,
我犯錯的時候反而更少了。
今天,我明白了,
這就是「謙遜」。
As I began to love myself
I refused to go onliving in the past
and worry about the future.
Now, I only live for the moment,
where EVERYTHING is happening.
Today I live each day,
day by day,
and I call it FULFILLMENT.
當我開始真正愛自己,
我不再繼續沉溺於過去,
也不再為明天而憂慮。
如今,
我只活在這一切正在發生的當下。
今天,
我活在此時此地,
如此日復一日,
而我稱這為「完美」。
As I began to love myself ,
I recognized that my mind can disturbme
and it can make me sick.
But As I connected it to my heart,
my mind became avaluable ally.
Today I call this connection
WISDOM OF THE HEART.
當我真正開始愛自己,
我明白,
我的思慮擾亂了自我,
使我變得了無生趣。
但當我與本心相連,
心靈的力量就成為了我堅實的後盾。
今天,
我稱這種連結為「心的智慧」。
We no longer need to fear arguments,
confrontations or any kind of problems
with ourselves or others.
Even stars collide,
and out of their crashing new worlds are born.
Today I know
THAT IS「LIFE」!
我們無需再害怕生命中的爭論、衝突,
或是任何出現在與我們自己
或與其他人之間的矛盾和問題。
因為即使是星星也會偶爾碰撞在一起,
從而形成新的世界。
今天,我明白了,
這,就是「生命」!
愛自己,是終身浪漫的開始。
畢淑敏說,
只有愛自己的人,才有可能愛別人。
什麼是真正的愛自己?
首先愛惜自己的身體。健康平安永遠要排在第一。這溫潤健全的身體,哪一處都容不得踐踏與忽視。
其次要關照自己的心靈。人活一世,總要經歷很多的事。有些事情像空氣,隨風飄散,不留痕迹,有些事情卻在心中,久久不能散去。心就那麼大,多裝一些美好的東西,不讓負能量佔據新房。心中有陽光,腳下才有力量。
人生多險,命運多難,要坦然、豁達、平安、寧靜地過一生確非易事。年少不懂,總有一些路要自己去走,便註定不會一帆風順。但總有一天,終將淡看雲煙。低谷時,不憤懣;頂峰時,不膨脹。認認真真過好每一天。要知道,你對生活的熱愛,可可愛愛!
