31、的未来,都是靠脚步去丈量。没有走,怎么知道,不可能;没有去努力,又怎么知道不能实现?幸福都是奋斗出来的。那不如,生活中、工作中,就让这“幸福都是奋斗出来的”完完全全彻彻底底的渗入我们的心灵,着心、心平气和的去体验、去察觉这一种灵魂深处的安详,侧耳聆听这仅属于我们自己生命最原始最动人的节奏。但,这种聆听,它绝不是仅限于、执着于“我”,而是观察一种生命状态能够扩展和超脱到什么程度,也就是那“幸福都是奋斗出来的”深处又会是如何?生命不止,奋斗不息!又或者,对于很多优秀的人来说,我们奋斗了一辈子,拼搏了一辈子,也只是人家的起点。可是,这微不足道的进步,对于我们来说,却是幸福的,也是知足的,因为我们清清
32、楚楚的知道自己需要的是什么,隐隐约约的感觉到自己的人生正把握在自己手中,并且这一切还是通过我们自己勤勤恳恳努力,去积极争取的!“宝剑锋从磨砺出,梅花香自苦寒来。”当我们坦然接受这人生的终局,或许,这无所皈依的心灵就有了归宿,这生命中觅寻处那真正的幸福、真正的清香也就从此真正的灿烂了我们的人生。一生有多少属于我们的时光?陌上的花,落了又开了,开了又落了。无数个岁月就这样在悄无声息的时光里静静的流逝。童年的玩伴,曾经的天真,只能在梦里回味,每回梦醒时分,总是多了很多伤感。不知不觉中,走过了青春年少,走过了人世间风风雨雨。爱过了,恨过了,哭过了,笑过了,才渐渐明白,酸甜苦辣咸才是人生的真味!生老病死
33、是自然规律。所以,面对生活中经历的一切顺境和逆境都学会了坦然承受,面对突然而至的灾难多了一份从容和冷静。这世上没有什么不能承受的,只要你有足够的坚强!这世上没有什么不能放下的,只要你有足够的胸襟!一生有多少属于我们的时光?当你为今天的落日而感伤流泪的时候,你也将错过了明日的旭日东升;当你为过去的遗憾郁郁寡欢,患得患失的时候,你也将忽略了沿途美丽的风景,淡漠了对未来美好生活的憧憬。没有十全十美的生活,没有一帆风顺的旅途。波平浪静的人生太乏味,抑郁忧伤的人生少欢乐,风雨过后的彩虹最绚丽,历经磨砺的生命才丰盈而深刻。见过了各样的人生:有的轻浮,有的踏实;有的喧哗,有的落寞;有的激扬,有的低回。肉体凡
34、胎的我们之所以苦恼或喜悦,大都是缘于生活里的际遇沉浮,走不出个人心里的藩篱。也许我们能挺得过物质生活的匮乏,却不能抵挡住内心的种种纠结。其实幸福和欢乐大多时候是对人对事对生活的一种态度,一花一世界,一树一菩提,就是一粒小小的沙子,也有自己精彩的乾坤。如果想到我们终有一天会灰飞烟灭,一切象风一样无影亦无踪,还去争个什么?还去抱怨什么?还要烦恼什么?未曾生我谁是我?生我之时我是谁?长大成人方是我,合眼朦胧又是谁?一生真的没有多少时光,何必要和生活过不去,和自己过不去呢。你在与不在,太阳每天都会照常升起;你愁与不愁,生活都将要继续。时光不会因你而停留,你却会随着光阴而老去。有些事情注定会发生,有的结
35、局早已就预见,那么就改变你可以改变的,适应你必须去适应的。面对幸与不幸,换一个角度,改变一种思维,也许心空就不再布满阴霾,头上就是一片蔚蓝的天。一生能有多少属于我们的时光,很多事情,很多人已经渐渐模糊。而能随着岁月积淀下来,在心中无法忘却的,一定是触动心灵,甚至是刻骨铭心的,无论是伤痛是欢愉。人生无论是得意还是失意,都不要错过了清早的晨曦,正午的骄阳,夕阳的绚烂,暮色中的朦胧。经历过很多世态炎凉之后,你终于能懂得:谁会在乎你?你又何必要别人去在乎?生于斯世,赤条条的来,也将身无长物的离开,你在世上得到的,失去的,最终都会化作尘埃。原本就不曾带来什么,所以也谈不到失去什么,因此,对自己经历的幸与
36、不幸都应怀有一颗平常心有一颗平常心,面对人生小小的不如意或是飞来横祸就能坦然接受,知道人有旦夕祸福,这和命运没什么关系;有一颗平常心,面对台下的鲜花掌声和头上的光环,身上的浮名都能清醒看待。花不常开,人不常在。再热闹华美的舞台也有谢幕的时候;再奢华的宴席,悠扬的乐曲,总有曲终人散的时刻。春去秋来,我们无法让季节停留;同样如同季节一样无法挽留的还有我们匆匆的人生。谁会在乎你?生养我们的父母。纵使我们有千般不是,纵使我们变成了穷光蛋,唯有父母会依然在乎!为你愁,为你笑,为你牵挂,为你满足。这风云变幻的世界,除了父母,不敢在断言还会有谁会永远的在乎你!看惯太多海誓山盟的感情最后星流云散;看过太多翻云
37、覆雨的友情灰飞烟灭。你春风得意时前呼后拥的都来锦上添花;你落寞孤寂时,曾见几人焦急赶来为你雪中送炭。其实,谁会在乎你?除了父母,只有你自己。父母待你再好,总要有离开的时日;再恩爱夫妻,有时也会劳燕分飞,孩子之于你,就如同你和父母;管鲍贫交,俞伯牙和钟子期,这样的肝胆相照,从古至今有几人?不是把世界想的太悲观,世事白云苍狗,要在纷纷扰扰的生活中,懂得爱惜自己。不羡慕如昙花一现的的流星,虽然灿烂,却是惊鸿一瞥;宁愿做一颗小小的暗淡的星子,即使不能同日月争辉,也有自己无可取代的位置其实,也不该让每个人都来在乎自己,每个人的人生都是单行道,世上绝没有两片完全相同的树叶。大家生活得都不容易,都有自己方向
38、。相识就是缘分吧,在一起的时候,要多想着能为身边的人做点什么,而不是想着去得到和索取。与人为善,以直报怨,我们就会内心多一份宁静,生活多一份和谐没有谁会在乎你的时候,要学会每时每刻的在乎自己。在不知不觉间,已经走到了人生的分水岭,回望过去生活的点滴,路也茫茫,心也茫茫。少不更事的年龄,做出了一件件现在想来啼笑皆非的事情:斜阳芳草里,故作深沉地独对晚风夕照;风萧萧兮,渴望成为一代侠客;一遍遍地唱着罗大佑的童年,期待着做那个高年级的师兄;一天天地幻想,生活能轰轰烈烈。没有刀光剑影,没有死去活来,青春就在浑浑噩噩、懵懵懂懂中悄然滑过。等到发觉逝去的美好,年华的可贵,已经被无可奈何地推到了滚滚红尘。从此,青春就一去不回头。没有了幻想和冲动,日子就像白开水一样平淡,寂寞地走过一天天,一年年。涉世之初,还有几分棱角,有几许豪情。在碰了壁,折了腰之后,终于明白,生活不是童话,世上本没有白雪公主和青蛙王子,原本是一张白纸似的人生,开始被染上了光怪陆离的色彩。你情愿也罢,被情愿也罢,生存,就要适应身不由己,言不由衷的生活。人到中年,突然明白了许多:人生路漫漫,那是说给还不知道什么叫人生的人说的,人生其实很短暂,百年一瞬间;世事难预料,是至理名言,这一辈子,你遇见了谁,擦肩而过了谁,谁会是你真心的良朋益友,谁会和你牵手相伴一生,
