Choose Life

好久好久没有好好的“看看自己”
最近的我
好懒散

工作上懒散
不进取
回到家就是玩game看戏睡觉
原本收拾好的房间
不到一下子又变成乱葬岗
完全不想收拾
一点劲儿都没有

或许是12月尾假期太逍遥了
或许
也没有什么“理由”
又或者
像上司说的
我厌倦了
但
这是我不愿承认的“理由”

上司说我似乎被困住
在一个死胡同里
但只要我走得出来
就会是另一个层次了
我其实不是很明白箇种意思
只发现她们都在努力的灌输我新知识
让我重拾新鲜感
是这样的吧…………

今晚深切体会
阅读可以刺激思想
在好久好久没有看读者文摘后的今天
在读者文摘的Classic Collection issue中看到一篇超适合我现况看的文章

Choose Life by Ardis Whitman (Feb 1985)

After reading the article, the feeling of sharing it was gushing so high!

Thus i shared the web version of its first page on FB =)

The best paragraph I'd vote for:

"Who says we must strenuously try to rise and walk again?

The answer is that every cell in our bodies is programmed to fight for life.

We are here on earth to live - to experience whatever comes, to act on that experience as well as we can, and hence to grow.

Life is a candle meant to burn ever brighter, a fire meant to light other fires. It is a gift from God and an inheritance for those who come after."

In the article, writer tells How do we learn to rise and walk?

which i found really practical!

First, invite yourself to live.

Forgive yourself - and others.

Regain your self-esteem.

Stop expecting that you will fail.

Return to the world of other people.

Find a compassionate person to whom you can talk from the bottom of your heart.

Reach out to help.

Believe in miracles.

Guard your own enthusiasms, however frail they are.

Look around you, in the lovely world of nature.

And finally,

Practice gratitude.

These might be the steps i should be taking, one by one, to cherish life again!
