我知道我的手邊有許多許多的好文章
我把他們留下來的原因在於
我知道人生中有許多許多的關卡
很多時候我會感到疑惑和痛苦
需要一些箴言來提醒我 來鼓勵我
有的時候
需要一些殘酷的語言
來讓我認清
這樣兩面的想法
正是我最近說的
這個世界不是我想像中的美好
但的確沒有以為的糟
以下是我選擇的兩段話
以及一段文章
與你們分享~~
●一個人做事，如果快半拍，那就是機伶。如果慢半拍就是智慧。 ~~倪敏然
(我也許也夠機伶，因此我正在學習智慧!)
●真實和謊言一起到河邊洗澡
先上岸的謊言偷偷穿上真實的衣服不肯歸還
固執的真實死也不肯穿上謊言的衣服
只好一絲不掛光溜溜地走回家
從此人們眼中只有穿著真實外衣的謊言
卻怎麼也無法接受赤裸裸的真實
●A little boy asked his mother "why are you crying?".
"I just am" his mother explained.
"I don’t understand", he said.
His Mom just hugged him and said, "And you never will."
Later the little boy asked his father,
"Why does mother seem to cry for no reason?"
"All women cry for no reason," was all his dad could say.
№
The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why women cry.
№
Finally he put in a call to God. When God got on the phone, he asked, "God, why do women cry so easily?"
№
God said, " When I made the woman, she had to be special.
№
I made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world, yet gentle enough to give comfort.
I gave her an inner strength to endure childbirth and the rejection that many times comes from her children.
I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone else gives up, and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue without complaining.
I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all circumstances, even when her child has hurt her very badly.
I gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart.
I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife, but sometimes tests her strengths and her resolve to stand beside him unfalteringly.
And finally, I gave her a tear to shed. This is hers exclusively to use whenever it is needed."
"You see, my son," said God, "the beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart the place where love resides."
有個小男孩問媽媽「媽咪，妳為什麼在哭呢？」
媽媽說：「我就是想哭」
小男孩說：「我不懂」。 媽媽抱抱他，說 ：「是的，你永遠不會懂的。」
之後，小男孩問爸爸：「為什麼媽咪會無緣無故的就在哭呢？」
爸爸答的上來的祇有：「所有的女人都會無緣無故的哭。」
小男孩長大成了男人，但還是想不通「女人為何而哭？」
最後他決定打電話問上帝，他直接在電話中問：「上帝，為什麼女人這麼會哭呢？」
上帝回答：「我所塑造女人，必須是非常特別的。」
我讓她的肩膀強韌得足以背負這個世界但是又柔軟地可以給人撫慰；
我讓她有內在的力量，可以承受分娩的痛苦及來自孩子們的排斥抗拒；
我賜予她堅定的本質，在所有人都放棄時仍堅持著，並無怨無悔地照護她的家庭走過疾病及疲累；
我賜予她敏銳的心，讓她不論在何種處境下，都會去愛她的孩子，即使孩子曾深深傷害過她；
我賜予她力量，帶領丈夫度過他犯的過錯，讓她扮演守護丈夫心靈的角色，一如肋骨保護心臟般；
我給她智慧，讓她了解一個好丈夫是永遠不會傷害妻子的，但是偶爾又給她一點小小的試鍊，看看她是否能夠堅定不移的與丈夫並肩而立。
最後，我給了她眼淚，任何時刻可以自由運用的專屬權利。
上帝說：「所以了，我的孩子，女人的美麗不在於她穿的衣裳、外貌體態或是她梳頭髮的模樣；她的美麗是在她的眼睛裡，因為那是通往她心靈的入口--愛的棲息處。」
