人的情感总是希望有所得,以为拥有的东西越多,自己就会越快乐。所以,这一人之常情就迫使我们沿着追寻获取的路走下去。可是,有一天,我们忽然惊觉:我们的忧郁、无聊、困惑、无奈、一切不快乐,都和我们的要求有关,我们之所以不快乐,是我们渴望拥有的东西太多了,或者,太执着了,不知不觉,我们已经执迷于某个事物上了。
譬如说,你爱上了一个人,而他(她)却不爱你,你的世界就微缩在对他(她)的感情上了,他(她)的一举手、一投足,都能吸引你的注意力,都能成为你快乐和痛苦的源泉。有时候,你明明知道那不是你的,却想去强求,或可能出于盲目自信,或过于相信精诚所至、金石为开,结果不断地努力,却遭来不断的挫折。有的靠缘分,有的靠机遇,有的得需要人们能以看山看水的心情来欣赏,不是自己的不强求,无法得到的就放弃。
懂得放弃才有快乐,背着包袱走路总是很辛苦。
我们在生活中,时刻都在取与舍中选择,我们又总是渴望着取,渴望着占有,常常忽略了舍,忽略了占有的反面--放弃。懂得了放弃的真意,也就理解了"失之东隅,收之桑榆"的妙谛。懂得了放弃的真意,静观万物,体会与世界一样博大的境界,我们自然会懂得适时地有所放弃,这正是我们获得内心平衡,获得快乐的好方法。
生活有时会逼迫你,不得不交出权力,不得不放走机遇,甚至不得不抛下爱情。你不可能什么都得到,生活中应该学会放弃。放弃会使你显得豁达豪爽。放弃会使你冷静主动,放弃会让你变得更智慧和更有力量。
什么应该放弃?放弃失恋带来的痛楚,放弃屈辱留下的仇恨,放弃心中所有难言的负荷;放弃浪费精力的争吵,放弃没完没了的解释;放弃对权力的角逐,放弃对金钱的贪欲,放弃对名利的争夺......一切源于自私的欲望,一切恶意的念头,一切固执的观念都应该放弃。
然而,放弃并非易事,需要很大的勇气。面对诸多不可为之事,勇于放弃,是明智的选择。只有毫不犹豫地放弃,才能重新轻松投入新生活,才会有新的发现和转机。
生活中缺少不了放弃。大千世界,取之弃之是相互伴随的,有所弃才有所取。人的一生是放弃和争取的矛盾统一体,潇洒地放弃不必要的名利,执著地追求自己的人生目标。
学会放弃,本身就是一种淘汰,一种选择,淘汰掉自己的弱项,选择自己的强项。放弃不是不思进取,恰到好处的放弃,正是为了更好地进取,常言道:退一步,海阔天空。
人生短暂,与浩瀚的历史长河相比,世间一切恩恩怨怨,功名利禄皆为短暂的一瞬,福兮祸所伏,祸兮福所倚。得意与失意,在人的一生中只是短短的一瞬。行至水穷处,坐看云起时。古今多少事,都付谈笑中。
一个老人在行驶的火车上,不小心把刚买的新鞋弄掉了一只,周围的人都为他惋惜。不料那老人立即把第二只鞋从窗口扔了出去,让人大吃一惊。老人解释道:"这一只鞋无论多么昂贵,对我来说也没有用了,如果有谁捡到一双鞋,说不定还能穿呢!"
显然,老人的行为已有了价值判断:与其抱残守缺,不如断然放弃。我们都有过某种重要的东西失去的事,且大都在心理上投下了阴影。究其原因,就是我们并没有调整心态去面对失去,没有从心理上承认失去,总是沉湎于已经不存在的东西。事实上,与其为失去的而懊恼,不如正视现实,换一个角度想问题:也许你失去的,正是他人应该得到的。
普希金在一首诗中写道:"一切都是暂时的,一切都会消逝;让失去的变为可爱。"有时,失去不一定是忧伤,反而会成为一种美丽;失去不一定是损失,反倒是一种奉献。只要我们抱着积极乐观的心态,失去也会变得可爱。
人生箴言:
放弃是一种睿智,它可以放飞心灵,可以还原本性,使你真实地享受人生;放弃是一种选择,没有明智的放弃就没有辉煌的选择。
进退从容,积极乐观,必然会迎来光辉的未来。放弃决不是毫无主见,随波逐流,更不是知难而退,而是一种寻求主动,积极进取的人生态度。
