人和各种生物都是自然界进化的杰作,进化首先意味着变化,也就是说生命是一种非常容易发生变化的物质现象,对于人类来讲,有生命的存在就意味着死亡的必然,也意味着必须承受疾病的痛苦。人人都希望健康长寿,但从哲学意义上讲,健康是相对的,不健康活着疾病才是绝对的,根本就不存在绝对健康的个体。最近科学家的一项发现又给这一看法提供了非常好的证据。 生物体需要利用化学能才能维持各种生物功能,简单地说就是必须消耗营养,产生能量,发挥各种功能。因此细胞内的能量工厂,线颗体无时无刻都不休息地将营养物质最终转化成可以被细胞直接使用的所谓能量载体 ATP ,在这个能量转化过程中,有一个必然的产物就是活性氧,因为最理想的状态是所有来自营养物质的电子或氢原子必须四个编组同时和氧气分子发生反应,这个功能是一个进化上至关要命的分子:细胞色素 C 还原酶的工作,也是氧气在身体内最重要的归宿。不过,任何事情都不会绝对,而且也不能绝对,有大概 1% 的氧气没有获得细胞色素 C 还原酶的照顾,活着直接获得一个电子,变成了许多人恨之入骨的自由基,超氧阴离子。也就是说,只要细胞是活的,自由基的产生就是必然的。所以说活着就必须忍受痛苦。最近学者们针对来自于能量代谢过程中产生的活性氧的作用进行深入研究,发现这种来自正常地不能再正常地能量代谢过程地自由基,时刻都在威胁着细胞遗传物质地准确复制,也就是说正常地生命过程必然存在核酸地序列突变。 早期关于基因突变地研究,例如在物理学家薛定鄂那个年代(读《生命是神马》这个书),就描述过但是认为地基因突变来自外界地影响,例如来自宇宙和环境地辐射线等,现在随着对生物学技术地发展,人们逐渐开始认识到,哪怕你把一个生命放在真空中(当然不可能),也一样会产生变化和疾病。 因此,活着意味着疾病,就想长生不老只是一种美好愿望,完全健康也只是梦幻泡影。经历和承受痛苦是生命的必然,健康要珍惜,生病了要正确勇敢面对。 扩展阅读,关于《呼吸导致基因突变》 细胞中 DNA 突变的累积,可能危害整个有机体,引发癌症等致命的疾病。日前,慕尼黑大学 LMU 的研究人员解析了 呼吸作用 的负面影响,揭示了呼吸作用副产物在 DNA 双螺旋中引入错配的具体机制。文章发表在 Nature 旗下的 NatureChemical Biology 杂志上。 细胞的 DNA 控制着细胞的正常功能,以及机体中各细胞类型的形成。这些指令编码在由 ATGC 四种碱基组成的 DNA 序列中。如果细胞的 DNA 序列发生了随机突变,就会引起细胞功能紊乱,导致不受控制的细胞增殖,从而形成恶性肿瘤。 许多因素都可能诱发这样的突变,例如细胞的呼吸作用。呼吸作用是细胞氧化分解有机物并产生能量的化学过程,这些能量可供细胞执行其正常功能。不过,呼吸作用也会生成高度活跃的 活性氧 ,对 DNA 造成损害,嘌呤碱基 G 和 A 对这类损伤特别敏感。 “活性氧会诱导生成 8-oxo-G 和 FaPy-G ,形成两种不同的 DNA 损伤,” LMU 的化学系教授 ThomasCarell 说。 Carell 及其团队于 2004 年,明确了 8-oxo-G 引发 DNA 突变的具体机制。现在,他们又在这项新研究中,描述了 FaPY-G 向 DNA 双螺旋引入 碱基错配 的过程。 在正常情况下, DNA 双螺旋链中的 G 应与 C 配对。但呼吸作用产生的活性氧,会将鸟嘌呤碱基转化为 FaPy-G 。“我们的研究显示,在细胞分裂前的 DNA 复制过程中, FaPy-G 会与腺嘌呤相互作用,形成 FaPy-G 与腺嘌呤的配对。这是一种异常,因为正常情况下,未被修饰的鸟嘌呤并不与腺嘌呤配对,” Carell 说。 随后, DNA 修复机制会将 FaPy-G 视为异常,并通过修复酶将其切除。根据碱基互补配对原则,去除 FaPy-G 所留下的空缺由 T 填补,使原本的 GC 碱基对变成了 AT 碱基对。这一过程使 DNA 双螺旋发生突变,给细胞带来了潜在的风险。 研究人员指出,出现上述情况是因为,在 DNA 复制过程中,细胞的损伤控制系统很难将正常鸟嘌呤碱基与其异常衍生物 FaPy-G 区分开。“这样的缺陷随后导致腺嘌呤的错配。这一机制是肿瘤发生的主要原因之一,” Carell 说。“可以这么说,细胞的每一次呼吸,都使癌症的患病风险增加了一点。” 为何 FaPy-G 往往能够避开细胞的侦查和校正系统?研究人员认为,进一步解析这一问题,可以帮助人们治疗癌症。在这些信息的基础上,人们可以通过抑制肿瘤细胞的 DNA 修复机制,增强这些细胞对化疗药物的敏感度。
Live Not By Lies Alexander Solzhenitsyn A26, 2/18/1974 Washington-post At one time we dared not even to whisper. Now we write and read samizdat, and sometimes when we gather in the smoking room at the Science Institute we complain frankly to one another: What kind of tricks are they playing on us, and where are they dragging us? gratuitous boasting of cosmic achievements while there is poverty and destruction at home. Propping up remote, uncivilized regimes. Fanning up civil war. And we recklessly fostered Mao Tse-tung at our expense-- and it will be we who are sent to war against him, and will have to go. Is there any way out? And they put on trial anybody they want and they put sane people in asylums--always they, and we are powerless. Things have almost reached rock bottom. A universal spiritual death has already touched us all, and physical death will soon flare up and consume us both and our children--but as before we still smile in a cowardly way and mumble without tounges tied. But what can we do to stop it? We haven't the strength? We have been so hopelessly dehumanized that for today's modest ration of food we are willing to abandon all our principles, our souls, and all the efforts of our predecessors and all opportunities for our descendants--but just don't disturb our fragile existence. We lack staunchness, pride and enthusiasm. We don't even fear universal nuclear death, and we don't fear a third world war. We have already taken refuge in the crevices. We just fear acts of civil courage. We fear only to lag behind the herd and to take a step alone-and suddenly find ourselves without white bread, without heating gas and without a Moscow registration. We have been indoctrinated in political courses, and in just the same way was fostered the idea to live comfortably, and all will be well for the rest of our lives. You can't escape your environment and social conditions. Everyday life defines consciousness. What does it have to do with us? We can't do anything about it? But we can--everything. But we lie to ourselves for assurance. And it is not they who are to blame for everything-we ourselves, only we. One can object: But actually toy can think anything you like. Gags have been stuffed into our mouths. Nobody wants to listen to us and nobody asks us. How can we force them to listen? It is impossible to change their minds. It would be natural to vote them out of office-but there are not elections in our country. In the West people know about strikes and protest demonstrations-but we are too oppressed, and it is a horrible prospect for us: How can one suddenly renounce a job and take to the streets? Yet the other fatal paths probed during the past century by our bitter Russian history are, nevertheless, not for us, and truly we don't need them. Now that the axes have done their work, when everything which was sown has sprouted anew, we can see that the young and presumptuous people who thought they would make out country just and happy through terror, bloody rebellion and civil war were themselves misled. No thanks, fathers of education! Now we know that infamous methods breed infamous results. Let our hands be clean! The circle--is it closed? And is there really no way out? And is there only one thing left for us to do, to wait without taking action? Maybe something will happen by itself? It will never happen as long as we daily acknowledge, extol, and strengthen--and do not sever ourselves from--the most perceptible of its aspects: Lies. When violence intrudes into peaceful life, its face glows with self-confidence, as if it were carrying a banner and shouting: ``I am violence. Run away, make way for me--I will crush you.'' But violence quickly grows old. And it has lost confidence in itself, and in order to maintain a respectable face it summons falsehood as its ally--since violence lays its ponderous paw not every day and not on every shoulder. It demands from us only obedience to lies and daily participation in lies--all loyalty lies in that. And the simplest and most accessible key to our self-neglected liberation lies right here: Personal non-participation in lies. Though lies conceal everything, though lies embrace everything, but not with any help from me. This opens a breach in the imaginary encirclement caused by our inaction. It is the easiest thing to do for us, but the most devastating for the lies. Because when people renounce lies it simply cuts short their existence. Like an infection, they can exist only in a living organism. We do not exhort ourselves. We have not sufficiently matured to march into the squares and shout the truth our loud or to express aloud what we think. It's not necessary. It's dangerous. But let us refuse to say that which we do not think. This is our path, the easiest and most accessible one, which takes into account out inherent cowardice, already well rooted. And it is much easier--it's dangerous even to say this--than the sort of civil disobedience which Gandhi advocated. Our path is to talk away from the gangrenous boundary. If we did not paste together the dead bones and scales of ideology, if we did not sew together the rotting rags, we would be astonished how quickly the lies would be rendered helpless and subside. That which should be naked would then really appear naked before the whole world. So in our timidity, let each of us make a choice: Whether consciously, to remain a servant of falsehood--of course, it is not out of inclination, but to feed one's family, that one raises his children in the spirit of lies--or to shrug off the lies and become an honest man worthy of respect both by one's children and contemporaries. And from that day onward he: * Will not henceforth write, sign, or print in any way a single phrase which in his opinion distorts the truth. * Will utter such a phrase neither in private conversation not in the presence of many people, neither on his own behalf not at the prompting of someone else, either in the role of agitator, teacher, educator, not in a theatrical role. * Will not depict, foster or broadcast a single idea which he can only see is false or a distortion of the truth whether it be in painting, sculpture, photography, technical science, or music. * Will not cite out of context, either orally or written, a single quotation so as to please someone, to feather his own nest, to achieve success in his work, if he does not share completely the idea which is quoted, or if it does not accurately reflect the matter at issue. * Will not allow himself to be compelled to attend demonstrations or meetings if they are contrary to his desire or will, will neither take into hand not raise into the air a poster or slogan which he does not completely accept. * Will not raise his hand to vote for a proposal with which he does not sincerely sympathize, will vote neither openly nor secretly for a person whom he considers unworthy or of doubtful abilities. * Will not allow himself to be dragged to a meeting where there can be expected a forced or distorted discussion of a question. * Will immediately talk out of a meeting, session, lecture, performance or film showing if he hears a speaker tell lies, or purvey ideological nonsense or shameless propaganda. * Will not subscribe to or buy a newspaper or magazine in which information is distorted and primary facts are concealed. Of course we have not listed all of the possible and necessary deviations from falsehood. But a person who purifies himself will easily distinguish other instances with his purified outlook. No, it will not be the same for everybody at first. Some, at first, will lose their jobs. For young people who want to live with truth, this will, in the beginning, complicate their young lives very much, because the required recitations are stuffed with lies, and it is necessary to make a choice. But there are no loopholes for anybody who wants to be honest. On any given day any one of us will be confronted with at least one of the above-mentioned choices even in the most secure of the technical sciences. Either truth or falsehood: Toward spiritual independence or toward spiritual servitude. And he who is not sufficiently courageous even to defend his soul- don't let him be proud of his "progressive'' views,and don't let him boast that he is an academician or a people's artist, a merited figure, or a general--let him say to himself: I am in the herd, and a coward. It's all the same to me as long as I'm fed and warm. Even this path, which is the most modest of all paths of resistance, will not be easy for us. But it is much easier than self-immolation or a hunger strike: The flames will not envelope your body, your eyeballs, will not burst from the heat, and brown bread and clean water will always be available to your family. A great people of Europe, the Czhechoslovaks, whom we betrayed and deceived: Haven't they shown us how a vulnerable breast can stand up even against tanks if there is a worthy heart within it? You say it will not be easy? But it will be easiest of all possible resources. It will not be an easy choice for a body, but it is only one for a soul. No, it is not an easy path. But there are already people, even dozens of them, who over the years have maintained all these points and live by the truth. So you will not be the first to take this path, but will join those who have already taken it. This path will be easier and shorter for all of us if we take it by mutual efforts and in close rank. If there are thousands of us, they will not be able to do anything with us. If there are tens of thousands of us, then we would not even recognize our country. If we are too frightened, then we should stop complaining that someone is suffocating us. We ourselves are doing it. let us then bow down even more, let us wait, and our brothers the biologists will help to bring nearer the day when they are able to read our thoughts are worthless and hopeless. And if we get cold feet, even taking this step, then we are worthless and hopeless, and the scorn of Pushkin should be directed to us: “Why should cattle have the gifts of freedom? ” “Their heritage from generation to generation is the belled yoke and the lash.”
好长时间没有写过东西,写过的大多东西也都没发表过只做为自己稚嫩的印记,今天突然想留下点什么记忆。 太多人在这个所谓真实的世界迷失,太多人忙于生计把最初的梦想(梦想?呵呵,戒了多年的人会嗤之以鼻)一再的掩埋直至窒息,太多人跋山涉水、挥汗如雨、血战到底最后摘下的桂冠发现只不过是为世俗观念配上的嫁衣。 人总是在空下来独处的时候才肯把世俗渐渐掩埋的灵魂忆起,人总是在失意的时候才会醒过来对人生进行无止息的叩问。 大学到研究生的最后一个假期,终于给心灵腾出时间去留意并寻找迷茫的足迹。 再承受不住一个人天马行空的思绪,藉此敲击和键盘一起记录分析,留下不成熟的想法,亦可以做为对自己的提醒。 我们80后90后这一代很喜欢的一句微博语录是:“ 不管你学什么专业,找工作一定要找个你喜欢的,这样你每天早晨六点到晚上八点都是高兴的。再找个喜欢的人在一起,这样晚上八点到早晨六点就是开心的,这就是生活。 戏剧性的是感觉身边太多的人(就此并不评价中国教育)就像名副其实的一已经写好的程序,一段段的进行着编译,小学-初中-高中-大学,编译通过,普天同乐,继续运行,结婚生子,加班加点,买房买车,做着没有激情但也称不上讨厌的工作,享受着平平凡凡一家三口的天伦之乐....这样没什么不好,俗话说知足常乐,这里也没有任何批判的意思, 谁能说这样有什么不好吗?和自己爱的和爱自己的人平平淡淡,浪漫寓于生活,挺好的啊,但可惜的是,现在的社会连恋爱都设计成了模式,if(到了年龄,”理性“分析后Ta符合我择偶的各项二进制标准,比如长得凑合不碍面性格正常||离家不远 等等),then(按照编好的模式,一起吃饭、一起散步、一起自习、一起上课、他送你回宿舍,你们做着情侣们该做的所有事情),可能要问难道这样有什么不正常吗,我想说的是不要为了适合而谈恋爱,恋爱,应该让心动来承载。为了适合的爱,付出是想要得到爱;心动的爱是无条件付出的爱,哪种都可以白头,但并不是哪种都可以厮守。当你真的心动了,Ta的笑容就是你五月的风、六月的海,Ta想要的一切你都想放在Ta手心,Ta就是你的世界,你并不去在意什么是现实、什么是距离,只知道,我爱你...... 一下手说多了, 但我想说的是真正不为梦想妥协,不为恋爱妥协的人到底能有几个?真的没有几个。态度带来机会,其实每一个人都有一个梦想,但不为现实妥协,坚持下去最终实现的人太少了。很喜欢史泰龙的一部电影--洛奇,很欣赏他的一段话:”It(life) will beat you to your knees and keep it there permanently if you let it .You, me and nobody is gonna hit as hard as life . But it ain't about how hard you hit . It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward How much you can take and keep moving forward . Fighters fight !“。 但并不是说每个人都该苦大仇深的为着梦想圣斗士般的Fighting,每个人都有每个人的价值取向,正因为如此生活才丰富美妙,只要你能在生命将近结束的时候,链接你这一生编译好的文件,你头脑能浮现出:”来到世上这一遭,我活出了自己的信仰”即足矣。 但遗憾的是,身边又有好多”精英“在别人的冷眼中守护着自己的信仰,但所谓的这个梦想不见得是他真正心灵渴望的地方,而太像是世俗的观念、父母长辈的意愿、媒体的价值判断,这些人很聪明,很勤奋,抗压能力也很强,坚持追逐下去他们梦想就在前方,但不希望看到他们放弃太多,付出太大,代价太重最后得到后发现伴随着太多的遗憾,也总感觉他们缺乏点什么东西,就暂且说是独立思考吧。 独立思考,嗯,被很多说不清的东西复杂的牢禁着,思想是最顽固的东西,思想又是最具传染力的东西,没有独立的思考,你只能说是一架机器,属于社会的、世俗的、他人的甚至自己的一架机器,大脑很多时候在欺骗你,理性很多时候受制于情绪,面前是一个又一个的心理陷阱,好多时候做决定的你只是20万年前的自己,说到这建议看看心理学和思考方面的书籍,学会甩开那个原始你的控制,开发无限潜能的自己(先Mark几本不错的书,影响力,与众不同的心理学,暗时间,决策与判断等等,当你接触一个新的领域,这个领域会用接踵而来的各种思想迎接你,你要做的只是摘掉你偏见的眼镜,求知若饥,虚心若愚。) 刚写完求知若饥,虚心若愚,让我想起最喜欢的关于乔帮主的另一句话:“你们的时间都有限,所以不要为明天忧虑,不要浪费今天的时间,活在别人设计的生活里,不要被教条所局限,盲从教条,就是迷失自己,也不要让世俗的观念淹没的自己内心的声音,最主要的是,要有跟著自己感觉和直觉走的勇气。无论如何,感觉和直觉早就知道你到底想成为什么样的人,其他都是次要的---乔布斯“。 你的时间有限,不要轻易的把人生之船停泊在某个温暖的小港湾,从而默默的度过平淡的一生;推荐一篇读后感--《 生命的清单 》,就像里面所说的:”在这个世界上,我们每个人都患有一种癌症,那就是不可抗拒的死亡。我们之所以没象那个那患癌症的人一样,列出一种生命清单,抛开多余的东西,去实现梦想,也许是因为我们认为自己还会活得更久。也许正是这点差别使我们的生命有了质的不同:有些人把梦想变成了现实,有些人吧梦想带进了坟墓“。 当然,我没有权利去评价别人的生活,也没有阅历没有资格去评价,只是想写出自己不想要的生活,以此为鉴,希望自己不要忘记最初出发的目的,还想对自己说的是不要浮躁,不要急,不要限于世俗的功利评判丢失真正的自己,同样不要让理性走的太快,以至于灵魂的脚步不能跟进。 教育造就了太多生存主义者、成功主义者,而不是生活主义者。不要用理智去追问灵魂的丰赡有什么意义,不要做任何事之前都去评估它的效益,当你你计算好了一切时想想是否丢下了青春、爱和激情,这些无法用理性的坐标轴标定的东西。 年轻就该率性,年轻就该充满魄力、霸气和坚毅,年轻就该坚持追求自己真正想要的,自己的兴趣。 兴趣?被太多励志书籍滥用着,越来越多的抵触情绪。”别跟我提兴趣,我知道的人都不知道兴趣为何物还大肆空谈着兴趣”,“擅长了也就感兴趣了,谁会对做都做不出进展的东西感兴趣”,往往人把自己擅长的当做自己的兴趣,但对是出于感兴趣主动接触、探索、尝试才擅长的还是出于理性的加强训练才擅长的这点,人们从来不会质疑,你可能问这有差别吗?有,区别就是激情。那你是说兴趣不可以理性的培养吗?能,看你到达那种层次,培养到擅长的兴趣是第一层,培养擅长到着迷是第二层,培养出激情这才是真正的兴趣。比如学数学,可能由于各种原因你不得不培养兴趣,培养到能熟练运用推理还不叫兴趣,培养到能感受数学之美也不叫兴趣,培养到为追求数学之美废寝忘食这才是真正的兴趣,自我感觉培养到这种境界很难过程也不轻松。不知道自己对什么感兴趣?抽时间好好的和自己谈一次,和你躯壳之内那个砰砰乱跳的他、她、它好好谈一次,剥离掉一切外界赋予你的定位和枷锁,隔离开所有父母长辈试图左右你、干涉你的声音,忘掉全部大众传媒、明星名流以及出版物层级输出给你的价值判断,然后多去思考,多去尝试,知道什么自己不想要,慢慢就知道自己真正想要什么。然后一点点做起来,无论多少声音试图扭转你,说你喜欢做的事情没前途、没钱途、没出息,悠悠的说上一句:Fuck off , this is my own life 。 又说远了,在绕回来,珍惜你年轻的资本,珍惜你生活中每一天的美好,人永远是一种不知道珍惜的动物,不要一边怀旧一边奔跑,不要走的太急,走的太功利,不要患得患失,不以物喜,不以己悲,相信自己,淡然面对。 米兰·昆德拉在《生命不能承受之轻》中说的很耐人寻味一句话:“人类的时间不是一种圆形的循环,是飞速向前的一条直线。所以人不幸福;幸福是对重复的渴求“。但,如电影蝴蝶效应剧情,就算给了你可以重新选择的人生,一再的涂改、选择,你孱弱的双翅也未必能扇动出幸福的旋风。生活只给了我们一个不可涂改的画板,没有任何比较的基点,生活中突然临头的一切毫无防备的把你的人生渲染着,面对种种抉择你也没有任何办法可以检验更喜欢哪种图染,甚至没有任何统一的标准来衡量你一生的浓墨重彩,画的漂不漂亮,画的精不精彩,有谁来看?其中残留的墨香,又有谁来嗅?没有。只要你认真的勾勒用心的画完,珍惜每一刻的似水流年,体验每一笔的曲折婉转,享受每一画的成长沉淀,就算是再大的苦难,只不过是一个机会和挑战,为了给你增添勇敢面对后那耀眼的绚烂,感恩你绘画的的过程,这就够了,你才是最有分量的评价员。你就有且仅有这么一次执笔的机会,为何要世俗的观念去指指点点? “心智决定视野,视野决定格局,格局决定命运,命运决定未来。”人们习惯用房子车子作为标准来衡量你是否成功,如果陷入这种浮躁的功劳评判中,你就很难绘制出华丽的人生。我们这代的年轻人要克服浮躁心态,要有耐力和信心来争取和等待自己美好的未来。喜欢什么,就慢慢做吧,要相信时间从不会把一个热爱自己事业并激情投入的人亏待。不要太过规划自己的未来,下定义的一刻也是你关上可能性大门的一刻,你怎知日后不会遇到更令自己好奇、亢奋的事情?依靠自己的感知,忠实深处的心灵。很赞同刘未鹏说的一句话:”只有你做你最感兴趣的事,其他一切就会随之而来“,虽然我还没有证明实践。年轻的我们不要心急,我们都要死很久,活那么急干嘛,听过一句话,所有的成长和伟大,都如同中药和老火汤,都是一个时辰一个时辰的熬出来的,这句话突然让我想到成功的临界点--10000个小时。享受生活,享受过程,“Happiness isn't on the road to anything. Happiness is the road.” 。何必太看重成败的结果?竞技场上:重要的不是凯旋,是战斗,即使你输了比赛,你也赢了自己!更进,生活中,没有输赢!人们太容易放大眼前的成就或苦难,在渺茫宇宙的千万亿年中,你这颗微粒顷刻间便化为乌有,你的起起落落能称得上什么?耶稣说:”一个人赢得了世界,却丧失了自我,又有何益?“。只管体验就好了,只管享受感恩生活就够了,只管跟着自我的感觉和直觉走享受为梦想奋斗的过程就够了,活出与众不同的你,感动未知的自己。” Life was like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get.“,so,just embrace life ! 不要太容易相信理性的力量,从而沉迷于功利的计算,以至丢弃灵魂的存在成为一具行尸走肉。让理性等一等灵魂的脚步,体验美、情感、文学、音乐、和运动中的忘我,记得北大的一女子说的一句话,”符号、机械和逻辑终究不能代替情感、体温、和信仰。在通往幸福之门的航程中,理性是灯,是船桨,是桥梁;然而只有灵魂,才是那可以解释最后谜团的金色钥匙“,丢失了灵魂,什么是活着的真实? 先记录这些,这并不是做一些什么评判,世界美就美在各种各样的价值观,美在各种看法各种思想的存在 (推荐一本比较另类的书,天才在左,疯子在右),只要你自己活的从容舒坦,只要你认为这样过下去不会留下声声的空叹,就够了。只想记录下自己的一些观念,让迷失的灵魂能面朝大海,让压抑的心灵能欣赏春暖花开,砥砺自己,为了梦想,不断前行。 喜欢梭罗的一句话:”活着当下,乘着每一个风浪前行。“ 暂以很喜欢的Beyond的一些歌结尾:“多少次,迎着冷眼与嘲笑,从未有放弃过心中的理想...原谅我这一生放纵不羁爱自由,也会怕有一天会跌倒,背弃了理想,谁人都可以,哪会怕一天只你共我...仍然自由自我,永远高唱我歌,走遍千里...没有泪光风里劲闯,怀着心中新希望,能冲一次,多一次,不息自强...”
只要换上你的名字,这正在讲的或许就是阁下的故事,莎士比亚说。 莎士比亚又说:To be or not to be?, 探究的是生与死的问题。从长远来看,每个人的生命也就是那么短短的岁月,在岁月的长河里几乎可以忽略不计,然而正是每个人不一样的生命旅程编织成了多彩的历史轨迹。每个人都很平凡,无论富贵贫穷,无论是阳春白雪还是下里巴人。每个人又都有着属于自己的不平凡,这份不平凡让我们活出个人的精彩和自信。 每个人应该都想过,自己为何而生?生命是父母赐予我们的,我们欣然接受并心存感恩,同时也要怀有一种敬畏生命的态度。对于生命,你没有理由去拒绝它,更没有理由去放纵它。从呱呱坠地的那一刻起,生命与成长同行。关于生命,有太多的阐述和见解,我们之所以如此关心它,是因为它本身就是一道难以给出明确定义的哲学题,抑或,是一道难以求解的NP问题。 我小时候的时光大部分是在农村度过的,那时候尽管过得很艰苦,但却给予了我关于生命最真实最直接最本真的体验。与自然的亲密接触,与农村的相依相伴,在我心里种下良知的种子,在我心里写下善良和同情。坦率地讲,那段日子是难得的磨炼和体验,它教会一个人如何去奋斗,去思考,去拥有梦想、追求梦想并实现梦想。两部电视剧的名字或许能更清楚地说明生命很重要的一部分: 《渴望》和《欲望》 。在农村帮忙农活的一个下午,那时我十一二岁,我脑子里突然闪现出一个想法:活着这么辛苦究竟是做什么?整天劳作是为了吃穿住行,吃穿住行又是伴随着我们每个人,每个人又得为吃穿住行而不断努力,如此循环。说到底,人活着就是因为我们本身的存在啊!自己的这么一套理论让我当时也吓了一跳,因为以为那意味着,如果人不存在,如果人不是为了活着,那么,也就不会引起随之而来的一系列问题。仅仅是活着,就不是那么容易的事情。 如同电影《活着》里讲述的故事,活着就好,能每天享受安静的生活,没有忧伤,看日升日落,云卷云舒,是多么幸福的事情。但那不是终点。 高一时,班主任让我们提出一些话题作为辩论会题目。比起小时候,那时想问题要更深一些,当时我就写了提了这么一个话题: 关于生存和生活 。我那时以为,生存是基本,也是根本,生活则是在生存的基础上要有更高的追求,包括物质上和精神上等的进一步满足和实现。随后几年,我也发现这个话题多次见于报纸、电视等媒体。我们从来都不说享受生存,我们只说维持生存,享受生活,可见二者的差别还是相当大的。仔细揣摩一番,其中深意,个人尽知。 要生存,要生活,得先活着。我们求学、工作是生活的一部分,在求学、工作的过程中历练自己,畅想成长。为何而生? 时间的匆匆而逝,生活的压力绝对不是我们放弃生活乃至生命的理由。活着,毕竟还有那么多事情值得我们去做,值得我们不去留下遗憾,值得我们去留下踏实、深刻的足迹。 是谁说的,没有梦想的人没有家,没有梦想的人生是一场流放。那就当人生是一场持久的梦想旅途,不断梦想并不断实现梦想。享受属于我们的生活的前提,乃是需要千里之行,始于足下的坚持、努力和不放弃。我们每个人过去做了的、现在正在做的以及将来还要做的事情,或许均与此相关。
