    《The Hours》:You can not find peace by avoiding life

          很意外的情况下,找到了一个网页,里面记录着《The Hours》的经典台词,居然跟我最喜欢的几段完全吻合。甚至还从链接里,读到寻找了很久的《Mrs.Dalloway》,英文原版,非常有味道。This was what she loved: life, London, this moment of June.
          我喜爱黛萝薇夫人,一如我钟爱 Meryl Streep 饰演的 Clarissa。时光变迁,书里的黛萝薇夫人继续上演她不变的命运。书外,Virginia 选择放弃业已崩溃的生命,Laura 选择放弃束缚自己的丈夫和儿子,她们并不幸福,不过是获得了某种意义上的解脱。谢谢 Clarissa,让我再次感受到生命的温暖力量。谁都会有没有归属感的时候,会觉得生活毫无意义,甚至会彻底绝望,然而:“That is what we do. That is what people do. They stay alive for each other.” 为别人而活着的想法并不高尚,却很真实。Clarissa,现代版的黛萝薇夫人,承受过多的压力和负担,照顾身患绝症的旧日恋人,疼爱没有父亲的心爱女儿,和同性的爱人相互扶持,她终于没有放弃,她选择面对!“You can not find peace by avoiding life.” Virginia 曾经这么对 Leonard 说。
     
          从两年前开始,差不多每个月都要再温习一遍这部电影,每次也都会有新的感悟,偶尔还会因为这部沉闷压抑的电影落泪。夜深了,耳边静静环绕着《The Hours》的原声音乐,心里默念:
     
          "We live our lives, do whatever we do, and then we sleep. It's as simple and ordinary as that. A few jump out windows, or drown themselves, or take pills; more die by accident; and most of us are slowly devoured by some disease, or, if we're very fortunate, by time itself. There's just this for consolation: an hour here or there when our lives seem, against all odds & expectations, to burst open & give us everything we've ever imagined, though everyone but children (and perhaps even they) know these hours will inevitably be followed by others, far darker and more difficult. Still, we cherish the city, the morning, we hope, more than anything for more. Heaven only knows why we love it so...There she is with another hour before her."

    为别人而活着的想法最终只会导致当生活不如意时,怪罪于他人。

    我活着不为任何人,只为我自己。
    谁都没有走到要别人逼迫来选择生活的那一步,任何人都必须对自己的决定负责。决定了,便不要总想着“我为你怎么怎么了”。觉得别人是欠自己的。
    每个人都有情绪低落厌倦生活的时候。偶尔把自己放纵在这种感情里面可以得到朋友的安慰。但长期以往,把这种表态成为一种习惯的话,不见得对自己有利。过分沉溺在任何一种情绪里面都是对身心的摧残。
    为自己而活会被人斥责为自私。如果因为这种自私我能够拥有积极的生活态度,我不介意。正如那句歌词所唱,“自己都不爱,怎么可相爱”。
