与Rondey谈关于生命
发布:小仙女 日期:2007年4月4日
Rodney是我在网上认识的一个老先生,他是新西兰人,很和气的一个老头。我们会聊些关于时事,生命,灵异等方面的话题。在我经历了那个不大不小的变故之后。和Rodney有了关于生命的如下对话。
Rodney:The beginning of a child is a miraculous process - doctors know much about it, but there is much that is still mysterious. There are so many intricate systems involved that it is a marvel that it is ever successful! But LIFE is a powerful force!
小仙女:恩,是。生命的力量是强大的
Rodney:When events happen, like your ectopic pregnancy, there is always a higher purpose behind them. But it is often difficult for us to understand that purpose.
Have I talked to you before about the "tapestry" view of life?
小仙女:"tapestry" view of life?你给我讲讲
Rodney:Life is like the back of a tapestry. We see the tapestry from below. We see a jumble of threads, that make little sense. Occasionally it is possible to see what the real pattern is, but usually not. Eventually, we rise above this physical existence, and above the tapestry. When we look down upon it, we can see it from the front, and finally it all makes perfect sense, every single thread..
小仙女:我不是太明白你所说的深层的意思
Rodney:It is beautiful from the front, but an untidy mess of threads at the back
小仙女:是,明白这个意思,从前面看很美,但后面确实乱糟糟的
Rodney:Yes Like our view of the things that happen in this life
小仙女:生活就像后面那些乱糟糟的是吗?然后呢
Rodney:When we have finished this physical life, and can see it from the other side, we can see the real pattern, the front of the tapestry of life
小仙女:但是什么时候才能看到呢?是不是只有在经历了很多事情之后,还是死亡之后呢?
Rodney:Then things that make little sense now suddenly become clear.
小仙女:这一句不是太明白
Rodney:Sometimes, some of it can make more sense when we are more experienced, but after death, we will be rid of the limitations of our physical understanding.Things will be much clearer when we review our life after death
小仙女:那么,我们要等到死后才能看明白吗?那么在我们现在的生命当中,我们应该如何面对困难和痛苦呢?我们应该如何平静的度过现在的生命呢
Rodney:With faith in the outcome, and with love towards those around us.
小仙女:信念与爱
Rodney:Yes.It can often seem very difficult, when things seem black for us But there is an English saying: "the darkest time is just before dawn"
小仙女:黎明前的黑暗.那么,你快乐吗,在你现在的生命中
Rodney:Yes, I am enjoying my life :)Not yet perfectly - I still have things to learn. But a principle I am learning to apply is: Treat everything that happens as if it is what I wanted to happen.
小仙女:把发生的一切仿佛是我要做的事?那么如果是不好的事情呢?
Rodney:Often our happiness is about things that have already happened, in which case there is nothing to do to change them. It is no use worrying about them now. Or our unhappiness is worry about things that have not happened yet, and may not happen, in which case it is often a wasted worry. The time to worry about them is when they happen, not before, and not afterwards.
The time to worry about them is when they happen, not before, and not afterwards.
When you are feeling unhappy, you should ask yourself, is there something right now causing this unhappiness, or is it from the unalterable past, or the "may-not-happen" future?
If it is from the past, then we have just to put it behind us, and get on with the life we have to live now. If it is from the future, then we should simply live as best we can now, so that if the thing happens, we can be prepared for it, and if it does not, then we can be happy.
Some of our past has things in it that are very sad, very unpleasant. But dwelling on those things does not help them. Fretting for them does not fix them. We have to live with what we still have now, and we have to learn to enjoy it.
Being upset about the past serves no purpose, other than to make us feel unhappy.
小仙女:恩。谢谢Rodney .我明白了
