Life Needs Gratefulness　生活需要感动
◎ Zach Randolph
Many details and trifles in life appear to be neglected by us in a bustling1 urban life. Some people
attribute it to the fickle2 ambience over the whole city. Some think that our passion has been ironed
out by invariably tedious life. Also some people come to the sensation that they have already been
numbed4 by the fast-paced life.
Is it because of fickle ambience? Is it simply because of no passion? Or is it because of
numbness5? Maybe all these contribute a little to the present situation, or maybe none. Actually, in the
modern city, what we lack more and more desperately6 is a heart of consciousness and gratefulness.
There was once a time when I also deemed that we began to lose our direction and become
numb3 without too much affection in this material flooding world. We were not sure whether the
reason why we locked tightly our heart was to eliminate loneliness or to protect ourselves. We did it
unconsciously with less and less emotion and smile. So someone said that I was awfully7 icy to others.
Not until one day when I was stricken by a sense of gratitude8 did I totally change myself.
Yes, life needs gratefulness. Gratefulness is not only confined to love, but also to friendship,
family bonds, mutual9 cherishing as well as constant missing each other.
Gratefulness touches deeply the tenderness of my heart, rendering10 me ever-profound perception
as well as ever-soft emotion. It is like the soft melody of “kiss the rain”, so tender, so emotional and
so fascinating, leaving me out of all the worldly troubles.
In the past never did I feel the great significance of gratefulness. I had been holding that
everything about life would become nothing but turn back to dust at the end of life. Maybe at that
time I had seen through life and death, thinking that life was running to the end unceasingly
regardless of our sentimental11 sigh. However, it was a momentary12 matter that I came to realize life
should be upheld and maintained by gratefulness. Then our heart will never feel solitary13 and have the
sense of being loved. Only by stretching out our hands can we give the opportunity to others to hold
us!
Affection and gratefulness is the source of my inspiration.
A tiny gratefulness can give us a lasting14 positive mood, which requires our consciousness and
gratefulness. Then with a heart of gratefulness, everything turns out to be gorgeous.
Giving and the feeling of being moved give us a sense of happiness. Maybe, it is my perception
of life that we need not own a multitude of wealth, but tons of love, not peerless status, but numerous
smiles, not the power to control everything, but someone wiling15 to do for you and miss you.
Yes, god is fair to anyone. When he closes one of your doors, he will open another for you.
Even though I just have a window, I can still embrace sunshine, fresh air, beauteous landscapes.
Though the eyesight might be somewhat narrow, it is my world after all.
In this world, I am dancing freely, arranging my life delicately, and enjoying my self-staying
and craziness as well as mutual cherishing with my friends.
Every drop in life composes a marvelous poem that conveys authentic16 emotions. Choosing to
live alone does not necessarily mean we do not expect the coming of love. Falling in love with rain
does not mean we do not adore glorious sunshine. Facing everything toughly does not mean we do
not hope a warm arm to lean upon.
Every drop in life and every silk of gratefulness direct me to my real heart and mind.
在熙攘繁华的都市中，生活中的许多细节和琐事似乎都被忽视了。有些人将这些归咎于
城市的浮躁多变。有些人认为，是单调乏味的生活让人失去了激情。也有人觉得这种快节奏
的生活已经使他们麻木了。
是因为浮躁多变吗？是因为没有激情吗？是因为麻木了吗？也许都有，也许和这些毫不
相关。事实上，在现代都市中，人们越来越缺乏的是一颗感激的心。
曾经有一段时间，我也认为自己在这个物质的都市中开始迷失方向，变得麻木、冷漠。
我不知道为什么要将自己的心紧紧封闭起来，是因为害怕孤独还是为了保护自己。只是我们
不由自主地就这样做了，情绪越来越少，笑容越来越少。所以有人说我是冷冰冰的。直到有
一天，就如我前文中提到的，一次幸福的感动完全改变了我。
是啊，生活需要感动。感动不仅仅因为爱情，也可以是源自友情、亲情，彼此的心心相
印，或是内心时刻的牵挂。它触动了我内心的柔软。从来没有这样的感慨和柔软情怀。就向
听着《亲吻雨滴》一样，旋律是如此柔和，如此温情，如此令人着迷，让人忘却了世俗的所
有烦恼。
从来不知道感动是这么重要。我一直以为，生活的一切都会回归尘土。也许那时，我就
看穿了生与死，认为人生的感伤也只是一种经历，最终都会走到终点，成为彼此的生命过
客。但是，就在那一瞬间，我明白生活是要用感动来支撑和维持的。只有这样，心才不会孤
独，才能感到被爱。只有当我们伸出自己的手，才能给别人和自己握手的机会。
感动和感恩是我们的灵感之源。
每一个细小的感动都能让人保持积极的心态，这都需要心灵的感知。有了这样一颗感恩
的心，一切都将变得非常美好。
付出和被感动同样让人幸福。或许这才是我想象中的生活，不用太多的财富，却拥有众
多的关爱；不用很高的地位，却拥有许多笑脸；不用至高的控制权，却有人愿意为你付出，
为你牵挂。
是的，上帝是公平的。他为你关上一扇门的时候，也会为你打开一扇窗。打开这样一扇
窗，我一样能拥抱灿烂的阳光、新鲜的空气、美丽的风景。虽然视野小了些，但这就是我的
世界。
在这个世界里，我可以翩翩起舞，可以安排好自己的每一步生活，可以享受独居的乐
趣，可以狂欢，也可以和朋友彼此珍惜。
生活的点点滴滴组成了美妙的诗篇，道出了真实的情感。选择独自生活并不意味着放弃
了爱情。迷恋上雨季并不代表不喜爱灿烂阳光。学会坚强面对困难不代表不需要可以依赖的
温暖臂弯。
点点滴滴的生活，丝丝缕缕的感动，指引着我找到心灵与思想的方向。
