第二篇:这个故事值得分享
这个故事值得分享
你会怎么做?请你作出你的选择,这不是什么机智问答。总之读下去,我的问题是:你会作出同样的选择吗?
在一个学习迟缓儿童学校的募款餐会上,在场的所有人永远忘不了其中一个学生的父亲所说的话。
在推祟学校和教职员的付出和贡献后,这个家长问了一个问题:照理说在无外力干扰下,大自然所创造的一切都是完美的。但我的儿子,西恩,他无法像别的孩子那样学习,他无法像别的孩子一样理解事物。
在我孩子身上,大自然的法则何在?所有听众都哑口无言。
这个父亲继续说。我相信当像西恩这样有身体及心智残缺的孩子来到这个世界,是一个展现人类真实本性的机会,而这一次体现在别人如何对待这个孩子。接着,他说了下面这个故事:
西恩在一个公园,里面有些西恩所认识的男孩正在玩棒球。西恩问我:"你想他们会让我一起玩吗?"我知道大部份的孩子不会想要有西恩这样的孩子在自己的队上,但身为一个父亲我同时也知道若他们能让我儿子参加,这会让他得到他所迫切需要的归属感并建立起自己虽然是残障仍能被接受的信心。
我走近一个男童(不抱太大希望的)问他西恩可否参加,他看看周围的队友然后说"我们输了 6 分而现在正在第 8 局上,我想他可以参加我们的队,我们会在第 9 局设法让他上场打。”
西恩带着满脸的喜悦困难地走向他的球队休息区,穿上该队的球衣,我悄悄地滴下眼泪,心中有满满的温暖。那些男孩也看出了我对于儿子被接纳的喜悦。
在 8 局下,西恩的队追了上来,但仍然还输 3 分。第 9 局上半场,西恩戴上手套防守右外野,虽然没有球往他的位置飞来,但能在场上他已经很高兴了,我从看台上向他挥手他笑的合不拢嘴。
在 9 局下,西恩的球队又得分了。而此时,二出局满垒的状况,下一棒是球队逆转的机会,而西恩正是被排在这一棒。
在这个重要关头,他们会让西恩上场打击而放弃赢球的机会吗?让人惊奇的是他们真的把球棒交给了西恩,大家都知道西恩根本不可能打到球,因为他甚至不知道怎么握球棒更别谈碰到球了。
然而当西恩踏上打击位置,投手已经明白对手为了西恩生命中重要的这一刻放下赢球的机会,所以他往前走了几步投了一个很软的球给西恩让他至少能碰一下。
第一球投出去了,西恩笨拙的挥棒落空。投手又再往前走了几步投出一个软软的球给西恩。当球飞过来西恩挥棒打出一个慢速的滚地球,直直的滚向投手。球赛眼看就要结束。
投手捡起这软软的滚地球,就可轻易的把球传给一垒手让西恩出局而结束这场球赛。然而投手把球高高的传往一垒手的头顶上方通过,让他所有的队友都接不到。
每个站在看台上的人不管是那一队的都开始喊着:"西恩,跑到一垒!跑到一垒!跑到一垒!"
西恩这辈子从来没有跑这么远过,但他还是努力跑到了一垒。他踩上垒包眼睛张的很大而且很惊喜。每个人都喊着说:"西恩,跑向二垒,跑向二垒!"!刚喘过气,西恩蹒跚的跑向二垒,很辛苦的往垒包跑。
这时,就在西恩往二垒跑时,右外野手拿到了球,这个全队最矮的小子第一次有了成为队上英雄的机会了。
他大可把球传向二垒,但这个全队最矮的小子了解投手的心意,所以他也把球故意高高传过三垒手的头顶过去。当前面的跑者往本垒跑时,西恩跌跌撞撞的往三垒跑。
大家都喊西恩,跑向三垒,跑向三垒!跑下去,跑下去。"
西恩能到达三垒是因为对方的游击手跑来帮忙将他带往三垒的方向,而且喊着,"跑到三垒,西恩,跑到三垒。"
当西恩抵达三垒,双方的选手和所有的观众都站起来,高喊着,"西恩,全垒打!全垒打!"
西恩跑回本垒踩上垒包时,大家为西恩大声喝采就如他打了一个大满贯并为全队赢的比赛的英雄般。
"那一天",那个父亲两颊泪流满面轻柔的说,"两队的男孩子把真爱和人性的光辉带进了这个世界。"
西恩没能活到另一个夏天,他在那年的冬天过逝,但他从没忘记他曾经是个英雄而且让我那们高兴,以及他回家时看着妈妈流着泪拥着她的小英雄的那一天!
现在;是关于这个故事的一点附注:
我们不假思索的用 email 把数以千计的笑话传来传去,但当我们遇到要传送有关生命的选择的信件时,我们反而感到犹豫了。
粗俗、野蛮和经常是有点淫秽的东西每天在网络上无限制的传播着,反而高尚的事情的讨论却在学校里及办公室里被压抑着。
我们每天都有无数的机会可以协助去体现大自然的法则。很多人与人之间微不足道的互动都是一个选择的机会。
到底我们是把爱和人性的光辉传递下去,或者放弃这些机会使得这世界一点点的更冷漠。
有一个智者说过;要评价一个社会就要看这个社会如何去对待他们之中最不幸的人。
所以现在你有两个选择; 1.删除 2.转寄
但愿你的每一天都是西恩日!
我选择转寄,因为在我们的教育下,一个残疾孩子获得西恩幸运的机会几近于零。西恩现象,是西式人生观教育的结果。即使我们把这此文字传遍全国每一个孩子,也无法改变特色教育对他们影响。但是我还是选择转寄,因为有人努力就一定会有希望,而希望是不分大小的。希望是黎明到来前让人感到光明的鸟。它会激活人类对于光明的向往。可是若听任我们的孩子自己领会这种现象,自然净化人性,那是永远也赶不上人类文明发展的脚步的。同仁们若能把这种理念贯彻到我们的教育活动中,才能把这种理念转植到孩子们的心理。虽然这种努力,抵不过社会上横流私欲对孩子们的侵蚀,可是我们至少给这个社会留下希望!

第三篇:作文2篇---这个地方值得去
这个地方值得去
如果你休息一天,去户外远足无疑是最好的选择。但如果你又不想太过奔波,那我就为你介绍一处好玩的地方----万达广场。
请跟随我的脚步来到宽敞明亮、充满着时尚气息的万达广场吧,在中央广场乘坐观光电梯来到三楼,再乘坐扶梯到达四楼。这里是万达影院,这里正在上映着国内外的大片,有IMAX、VIP、3D、新概念影厅供你选择,你可以嚼着爆米花,喝着可乐,享受着视觉盛宴开心地度过两个小时。
看完电影你会觉得腹中空空,你一定想品尝美食,大饱口福。三楼有韩式烤肉、日本寿司、泰国餐厅、西餐厅、台湾餐厅、快餐、川菜、火锅店。。。,其中有一家“疯狂的勺子”的餐厅是美国街头餐饮的风格,餐厅墙面上喷上了各种涂鸦,充满了异国风情。服务员的服饰是赛车手的打扮,食物的名称也很有趣,例如“垃圾桶”披萨,因为它有垃圾桶盖那么大而得名。“牛扒店”的牛排也是出了名的好吃。那八分熟的黑椒牛排入口即化、软嫩多汁,十分令人回味。如果你不喜欢吃西餐,我给你介绍一家经济实惠的“手拉手自助回转火锅店”。店里那不停旋转的菜品一定会吸引你的眼球,一人一锅会吃得你热火朝天,品尝着美食还能听到舒缓悠扬的音乐,压力和烦恼都会烟消云散。
吃饱了你一定要逛一逛这里的店铺。一楼主要经营电子产品,有模型、平板手机、平板电脑和家用电器等,我最喜欢的地方是卖高达模型的地方,那里各种卡通人物应有尽有,而且是拼装的,十分益智,在那里让我有一种“大千世界无奇不有” 的感觉。第二层是时尚达人的购物场所,我最喜欢的是一个小饰品店,里面有飘香的蜡烛、唱歌的音乐盒、印着人民币的抱枕,在石头上画的小猫、小
狗栩栩如生、可爱至极,你一定会爱不释手,但价格不菲呀!
不用东奔西走,你就可以品尝美食,放松心情,愉快购物,这么好的地方一定值得你去。在万达广场里只有你想不到的,没有你买不到的。
追赶时间
小时候,妈妈就给我讲过《寒号鸟》和《等明天》的故事,在寒风中瑟瑟发抖的寒号鸟说“多罗罗,多罗罗,寒风冻死我,明天就垒窝”,这使我懂得:不珍惜时间,就不会有好结果。
上学了,我学到了民族英雄岳飞在《满江红》这首词里的疾呼“莫等闲,白了少年头,空悲切”。汉乐府诗中有一富有哲理的诗句:“百川东到海,何时复西归,少壮不努力,老大徒伤悲”。这些流传至今、脍炙人口的诗句鞭策着我,警示着我要珍惜时间,不能做一个碌碌无为的人。这个学期我又学到了林清玄的《和时间赛跑》,这篇文章深深地震撼了我。结尾那句“假若你益智和时间比赛,你就可以成功”我会铭记终生。;名人传记《爱迪生》中讲述了爱迪生一生珍惜时间,夜以继日地搞发明,他的多项发明为全世界带来了光明和幸福,世世代代的人们都会感激他。
人的生命宝贵,人的青少年时期尤为宝贵,因为青少年时代是人的一生中最重要的成长时期、打基础的时期。因此我们应该做时间的主人,我们不仅要珍惜时间,还要追赶时间。追赶时间就是要充分利用时间,上课、自习、做作业都要
高度集中注意力,排除干扰;追赶时间,就是要科学安排时间,巧妙地利用点滴时间,提高时间的利用率。
时间对于每个人都是公平的,我们要使每年、每月、每天、每小时、每分钟都过得有意义,让每一分钟都成为我们创造辉煌人生的基石!
第四篇:停下来看看这个世界有感
追逐
国商11011101300104李慧
前两天看了一本叫我只想停下来,看看这个世界的书,最初是因为名字吸引了我吧,因为一直觉着最近很浮躁,需要像心灵鸡汤的东西让自己静下来,唯有此,才可以用心的做很多事情。但开始看这本书后发现还真不是如此,只是一个研究生为了实现自己的梦想之旅,决定休学一年来去追逐自己的梦想。尽管书书内容并非我所想,但毫无疑问的深深吸引了我,因为现在这样的人还真是不多,我想看看她是怎样顶着重重阻力,克服对陌生世界的恐惧迈出第一步以及用怎样的方式帮助自己完成旅程呢。
我特别希望自己可以在刚踏入社会的时候,可以找到一个遍地飞的工作,这样我就可以接着工作之名,游览各个地方了,那么折腾几年后再设法安定下来。我固执的认为行万里路是人生中必不可少的部分。但是当我只身想要去某个地方的时候,总是有很多很多因素在告诉我不能这样做,其实很多时候做与不做只在一念之间。定下来之后总是有办法完成你的计划。如书中的那女孩子,斯瓦尔巴德是她梦寐以求的地方,一般人看来这个地方也就仅限于想象了,没什么可实践性。但她就是觉得她可以将这一梦想追逐到底。旅行嘛,尤其是这样的旅行,钱肯定是我们第一要素,你的经济条件是否允许你的梦想计划,我们大部分人一般就在第一步放弃掉了,总是给自己一个看似冠冕堂皇的理由说我没有钱这个想法就只能是梦想了。那个女孩子也有这样的问题,她不想要用父母的钱去完成这样的事情,但很快找到了一个办法去支持他的这一行动。那就是在欧洲的一个国家找份实习工作,利用工资来完成。就这样她投了一年的简历,在最后快要放弃的时候波兰的一家公司向她伸出了橄榄枝,并且全力支持她的这一计划。就这样,最难得第一步算是给迈出去了。第二关又来了,本来她的父母对她的这一计划是持不反对意见的,但在她要真正着手准备的时候,父母突然强力阻止她的计划。理由我想已经是不言而喻了吧。最近听了一句话,至少是深得我心的,做一些父母极力反对的事情,嘿嘿,你会从这些事情中学到很多。从父母的角度来看,可能更多的是从你的安全考虑吧,当你的一些计划超出了他们默认的安全范围之外后,他们是会拼尽全力阻止的。这一关难过啊,因为这个原因,作者有一次差点放弃,但反复劝说后,父母在最后关头终于点头了。计划终于顺利开始了,作者发现当她为旅行做准备的时候,朋友都超乎正常的帮助她,提供了一切他们能给予的帮助。可能是她代表着一群人的梦想吧。对的,一定是。因为这一切的发生都在很短的时间发生,所以作者错过了提前买机票的机会,不提前买意味着自己要买全票,这会花掉她大部分的钱,所以只能另想办法了。有一朋友给了她这样的建议,走西伯利亚铁路这条线。路线再一次敲定了。旅行所用的用品都是她从每个朋友那里拼凑来的,就这样开始了她的旅行。当然中间还有很多曲折的故事,但是不管怎样,准备过程是画上句号了。
接着肯定是相对准备而言的漫长的旅行了,中间给我印象深刻的大约有三件事情,因为这本书是在闲暇之际拼凑着看完的,很多事情的前后已经辨不清了,只知道大概的方向。第一件是在六天六夜的火车途中碰到的一个外国帅哥,让我们这些读者惊喜的是帅哥竟然向主人公表白了,这是着实让我们这些读者所羡慕的。本以为作者会答应他的,但是出乎我们意料的他被作者拒绝了。不由的要感叹一下了,那外国帅哥真厉害,因仅仅相处几天的好感就产生了这样的表白,在我们中国人身上是很少出现的。重点的还是拒绝的理由,按我的理解是这样的,旅途中的那些人,是从现实中抽离出来的,所以你看到的只是他们的一部分,很
多关键的东西是看不到的,还有作者说自己可能对爱情贪婪一些,总是想要一段一直都有对方陪伴自己的爱情。累了你知道有个肩膀你是可以靠靠的,饿了只要说一声你知道会有人因为心疼给你送饭来的,因为他的陪伴你是不会有孤独的。外国帅哥常年奔波在各个地方,他觉得这样的爱情可能付出很多得到的挺少,所以果断不考虑。在我的观点里,我更想要我的爱情里没有外物的污染,爱情就是爱情,没有任何功利,目的。在遇到喜欢的人的时候我可以放下女孩子的所谓的矜持去追求,但是不会强求,也不会因为孤独啊或者一些其他类似的原因选择一个根本没有什么感觉的人在一起。记得有一个名人说过这样的话,我之所以这样努力的往上爬,是因为我认为当我解决了所谓的物质问题的时候,我可以享有一段纯粹的爱情,不用说我被这样的话感动并激励着。看了这本书后,让我突然看到,哦,原来爱情还包含这么多,而自己需要的又是什么呢,依旧在探索中,不过这些东西会在我遇到真正的爱情的时候哦迎刃而解吧。第二件事情,是北极游泳,我只能说真爽但是让我做的话还真的是要下好大一番决心呢。作者呢就是突然的想法,然后告诉朋友,朋友表示支持,不给自己反悔的时间立即行动,光着身子,进入零度左右的北冰洋,游一圈知道全身麻木掉。做挺多事情其实是不需要用理性反复的斟酌权衡的,这样的项目,就是突然的想法,不给自己反悔的机会下实现了她,有了非同寻常的经历。不过也还是挺多事情是要用脑子筹划好后才能做的。第三件事情莫过于那坐落在世界上几乎最北位置的教堂了。你可以想像吗,有一个地方全天候无条件对人开放,这里有免费的食物提供给需要的人,困了小憩一会儿,压抑的时候可以像双手交叉放在胸前向神诉说,你想要一个安静的空间的时候可以找个角落享受安静的时光,你想要有人陪伴的时候可以找这里的人们陪你聊个通宵,想要读书的时候随便拿起这里的一本书端着咖啡倚在某
个地方进入阅读天堂,还原了人们之间最原始的信任,不说了,太羡慕这样的生活了,有种立刻奔过去的冲动了。
我老是说这样的一句话,与其说在读一本书,还不如说是刻意给自己一个思考的空间,这期间充斥着各种情绪,有时惬意,有时为自己得出的结论惊讶半天,有时又因为自己的无知懊恼不已,有时脑海中会充斥对一件事情的多种观点弄的自己心如乱麻,但不论如何,我都着实享受这一过程。我想我还是纯粹的做一些事情吧,因为英文读起来的美丽学英文,因为一本书让我迸发了万千思绪而去写一篇感想,因为想要分享一些观点去发一些说说,因为我对某个男孩子超级有感觉而放下一切去追求,因为想看一场日出早早起来到达最佳观赏地,因为想到好久没有站在阳台上观赏夜空了而半夜爬起来去遇见那久违的星星盛宴,好多好多让我想起来就无限向往的事情啊,对啊,从现在开始我应该行动起来去追逐,而不是只停留在脑袋里。
