微言

在我今日的悲傷裡,最為苦澀的是我昨日歡樂的回憶。

記憶是一種相聚的方式。

忘卻是一種自由的方式。

除了黑暗之路,人不可能到達黎明。

除非我的心碎了,否則它又怎能被開啟?

我曾經七次鄙視自己的靈魂

我曾經七次鄙視自己的靈魂

第一次,當它本可進取時,卻故作謙卑;

第二次,當它在空虛時,用愛欲來填充;

第三次,在困難和容易之間,它選擇了容易;

第四次,它犯了錯,卻藉由別人也會犯錯來寬慰自己;

第五次,它自由軟弱,卻把它認為是生命的堅韌;

第六次,當它鄙夷一張醜惡的嘴臉時,卻不知那正是自己面具中的一副;

第七次,它側身於生活的污泥中,雖不甘心,卻又畏首畏尾。

雖然言語的波浪永遠在我們上面喧譁,而我們的深處卻永遠是沉默的。

孩子 On Children

一個懷裡抱著嬰兒的婦人說,跟我們說說「孩子」吧。
於是他說:

And a woman who held a babe against her bosom said,
“Speak to us of Children.” And he said:

你的孩子不是你的,
他們是「生命」的子女,是生命自身的渴望。
他們經你而生,但非出自於你,
他們雖然和你在一起,卻不屬於你。
你可以給他們愛,但別把你的思想也給他們,
因為他們有自己的思想。
你的房子可以供他們安身,但無法讓他們的靈魂安住,
因為他們的靈魂住在明日之屋,
那裡你去不了,哪怕是在夢中。
你可以勉強自己變得像他們,但不要想讓他們變得像你。
因為生命不會倒退,也不會駐足於昨日。


Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you, yet they belong not to you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,
which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

你好比一把弓,
孩子是從你身上射出的生命之箭。
弓箭手看見無窮路徑上的箭靶,
於是祂大力拉彎你這把弓,希望祂的箭能射得又快又遠。

You are the bows
from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends
you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.

欣然屈服在神的手中吧,
因為祂既愛那疾飛的箭,
也愛那穩定的弓。

Let your bending in the Archer’s hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies,
so He loves also the bow that is stable.

人類生命的喪失是可怕的,但美的毀滅也許同樣可怕。在一個充滿焦慮、醜陋、仇恨和謊言的時代,這場大火讓人感受到了不祥。“美即真理,真理即美,”約翰·濟慈(John Keats)寫道,“知道這個就夠了。”
我的巴黎朋友薩拉·克利夫蘭(Sarah Cleveland)給我寫信說:“靜得出奇,人們彷彿陷入了恍惚,看著火焰在大教堂牆內沸騰,像一口大鍋。場面莊嚴肅穆。還有絕望。如此具有紀念意義的東西竟然如此脆弱。”
文明是脆弱的。民主是脆弱的,就像那個尖頂。今天,對此視而不見是不可能的,也是危險的。當一個普世參照物化為烏有時,一個深淵就打開了。

Every day we have plenty of opportunities to get angry, stressed or offended. But what you’re doing when you indulge these negative emotions is giving something outside yourself power over your happiness. You can choose to not let little things upset you.

With all the tensions and worries that stop us noticing how sweet the world can be.

There’s only so much fortune a man really needs, and the rest is just for showing off.

Don’t try so hard, the best things come when you least expect them to.
