努力的過

和舊同事吃飯,嘻嘻哈哈的度過了快樂的晚上,也忘卻了工作的壓力。

我告訴自己,每天要努力的過,如同這是自己最後的一天,這種想法原來可以令自己積極、快樂一點。

在看Tuesdays with Morrie,這段文字令我很感動:
If you hold back on the emotions─if you don't allow yourself to go all the way through them
─you can never get to being detached, you're too busy being afraid.  You're afraid of the pain, you're afraid of the grief.  You're afraid of the vulnerability that loving entails. 

But by throwing yourself into
these emotions, by allowing yourself to dive in, all the way, over your head even, you experience them fully and completely.  You know what pain is.  You know what love is.  You know what grief is.  And only then can you say, 'All right.  I have experienced that emotion.  I recognise that emotion.  Now I need to detach from that emotion fro a moment.' 

I delight in being a child when it's appropriate to be a child.  I delight in being a wise old man when it's appropriate to be a wise old man. How can I be envious of where you are
─when I've been there myself?
