章節(jié)摘錄

　　通往幸福的旅途　　Our Pursuit of Happiness　　佚名 ／ Anonymous　　We chase after it， when it is waiting all about us.　　“Are you happy·” I asked my brother， Lan， one day. “Yes. No. It depends on what you mean.” he said.　　“Then tell me，” I asked， “when was the last time you think you were happy·”　　“April 1967.” he said.　　It served me right for putting a serious question to someone who has joked his way through life. But Lan’s answer reminded me that when we think about happiness， we usually think of something extraordinary， a pinnacleof sheer delight—and those pinnacles seem to get rarer the older we get.　　For a child， happiness has a magical quality. I remember making hide-outs in newly cut hay， playing cops and robbers in the woods， getting a speaking part in the school play. Of course， kids also experience lows， but their delight at such peaks of pleasure as winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved.　　In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes. Suddenly it’s conditional on such things as excitement， love， popularity and whether that zit will clear up before a promnight. I can still feel the agony of not being invited to a party that almost everyone else was going to. But I also recall the ecstasy of being plucked from obscurity at another event to dance with a John Travolta look-alike.　　In adulthood the things that bring profound joy—birth， love， marriage also—bring responsibility and the risk of loss. Love may not last， sex isn’t always good， loved ones die. For adults， happiness is complicated.　　My dictionary defines happy as “l(fā)ucky” or “fortunate，” but I　　think a better definition of happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment.”　　The more we can enjoy what we have， the happier we are. It’s easy to overlook the pleasure we get from loving and being loved， the company of friends， the freedom to live where we please， and even good health.　　I added up my little moments of pleasure yesterday. First there was sheer blisswhen I shut the last lunch-box and had the house to myself. Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing， which I love. When the kids came home， I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the day.　　Later， peace descendedagain， and my husband and I enjoyed another pleasure—intimacy. Sometimes just the knowledge that he wants me can bring me joy.　　You never know where happiness will turn up next. When I asked friends what makes them happy， some mentioned seemingly　　insignificant moments. “I hate shopping，” one friend said. “but there’s　　a clerk who always chats and really cheers me up.” Another friend loves the telephone “Every time it rings， I know someone is thinking about me.”　　I get a thrill from driving. One day I stopped to let a school bus turn onto a side road. The driver grinned and gave me thumbs up sign. We were two allies in a world of mad motorists. It made me smile.　　We all experience moments like these. Too few of us register them as happiness.　　Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a blend of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work. I doubt that my great-grandmother， who raised 14 children and took in washing， had much of either. She did have a network of close friends and family， and maybe this was what fulfilled her. If she was happy with what she had， perhaps it was because she didn’t expect life to be very different.　　We， on the other hand， with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area， have turned happiness into one more thing we “gotta have.” We’re so self-conscious about our “right” to it that it’s making us miserable. So we chase it and equate it with wealth and success， without noticing that the people who have those things aren’t necessarily happier.　　While happiness may be more complex for us， the solution is the same as ever. Happiness isn’t about what happens to us—it’s about how we perceive what happens to us. It’s the knackof finding a positive for every negative， and viewing a setback as a challenge. It’s not wishing for what we don’t have， but enjoying what we do possess.　　我們四處追逐幸福，幸福其實(shí)就在我們身邊。一天，我問(wèn)哥哥伊恩：“你感到幸福嗎？”他回答說(shuō)：“可以說(shuō)幸福，也可以說(shuō)不幸福，這要看你指什么了?！薄澳悄愀嬖V我，”我說(shuō)，“最近一次你感到幸福是什么時(shí)候？”　　“1967年4月。”他答道?！　∥艺娌辉搶?duì)一個(gè)游戲生活的人提出這么嚴(yán)肅的問(wèn)題。但伊恩的回答給了我一個(gè)啟示：我們想到的幸福時(shí)刻通常是一些非同尋常的事，一種純粹的快樂——但是隨著年齡的增長(zhǎng)，這種快樂好像越來(lái)越少了?！　?duì)一個(gè)孩子來(lái)說(shuō)，幸福有著夢(mèng)幻般的色彩。記得我曾在新鮮的干草叢中捉迷藏，在樹林里玩“警察與小偷”，在學(xué)校的戲劇里扮演有臺(tái)詞的角色。當(dāng)然，孩子也有情緒低落的時(shí)候。但是，因?yàn)橼A得一場(chǎng)比賽，或得了一輛新車，他們會(huì)毫不掩飾地快樂到極點(diǎn)?！　〉搅饲嗌倌陼r(shí)期，幸福觀逐漸轉(zhuǎn)變。突然間，幸福就有了前提，你開始關(guān)注情緒，是否有愛，是否出名，甚至臉上的青春痘能否在舞會(huì)前消失。我清楚地記得，大家都去參加一個(gè)舞會(huì)，而我未被邀請(qǐng)時(shí)的痛苦。但也記得，在另一次活動(dòng)中，與一個(gè)貌似約翰·特拉沃爾塔的人共舞，帶給一個(gè)默默無(wú)聞的小人物的那種狂喜?！　〕赡旰?，心靈深處最令人喜悅的是生育和愛情，婚姻同時(shí)也帶來(lái)了責(zé)任和安逸。愛情可能會(huì)消逝，性愛也不總是如意，心愛的人可能會(huì)死去。對(duì)于成人來(lái)說(shuō)，幸福很復(fù)雜?！　∽值淅镄腋５亩x是“幸運(yùn)”或“好運(yùn)”，但我認(rèn)為幸福更好的定義是“感受快樂的能力”，越知足越常樂。但是，愛與被愛，友人相伴，簡(jiǎn)單的生活，甚至健康的體魄，這些細(xì)碎的快樂很容易被我們忽視?！　∥抑販亓艘幌伦蛉盏男腋r(shí)光，我把最后一個(gè)午餐盒飯準(zhǔn)備好，整個(gè)家就屬于我一個(gè)人了。然后，我寫作，整個(gè)上午都沒人打擾，我很快樂。孩子們回到家，我又享受著寂靜一天后的熱鬧?！　〔痪?，寧?kù)o再次降臨，我和丈夫享受另一種快樂——親熱。有時(shí)候，只要想到他需要我，就能給我?guī)?lái)快樂?！　∧阌肋h(yuǎn)不會(huì)知道幸福下一次會(huì)在什么時(shí)候出現(xiàn)。當(dāng)我問(wèn)起朋友，什么能給他們帶來(lái)幸福時(shí)，有些人會(huì)提到一些看似微不足道的小事?！拔矣憛捹?gòu)物，”一個(gè)朋友說(shuō)，“但有些健談的售貨員的確令我很開心。”另一個(gè)朋友喜歡接電話，“每次電話一響，我就知道有人想我了?！薄　∥蚁矚g開車的刺激。一天，我停下來(lái)，讓一輛學(xué)校班車拐到路邊。那個(gè)司機(jī)咧嘴一笑，會(huì)意地豎起大拇指。到處都是瘋狂的飆車族，而我們倆是另類。我笑了起來(lái)?！　∥覀兌加羞^(guò)類似的經(jīng)歷，但很少有人能意識(shí)到這就是幸福?！　⌒睦韺W(xué)家告訴我們，幸福既需要愉快的休閑時(shí)間，也需要滿意的工作。我的曾祖母養(yǎng)育了14個(gè)孩子，還要給別人洗衣服，做其他一些家務(wù)雜活。這兩樣?xùn)|西她都沒有，但她有來(lái)自各方向的親密的朋友和一個(gè)和睦的家。或許，這已使她很滿足了。如果說(shuō)她因自己擁有的一切感到幸福，或許是因?yàn)樗⒉幌Ｍ钍橇硪环瑯幼印！　×硪环矫妫鎸?duì)太多的選擇在各個(gè)方面都想成功，讓我們把幸福變成“必須得到”的一種東西。我們自私地以為我們有“權(quán)”得到它，這也是我們痛苦的根源。所以我們?nèi)プ非笮腋?，并將它同?cái)富和成功聯(lián)系起來(lái)，而沒有意識(shí)到擁有它的人并不一定更幸福?！　?duì)我們來(lái)說(shuō)，盡管每個(gè)人對(duì)幸福的理解不同，但是幸福的含義是從來(lái)不變的。幸福不是發(fā)生在我們周圍的事——而是我們?nèi)绾稳タ创車l(fā)生的事。秘訣就在于，我們以積極的心態(tài)面對(duì)逆境，變壓力為動(dòng)力。幸福并不是祈求我們所沒有的，而是享受我們所擁有的?！　⌒撵`小語(yǔ)　　幸福是什么呢？幸福就是每天可以看到陽(yáng)光，可以看到愛人微笑的臉龐，心里就會(huì)暖暖的……　　7　　pinnacle ['pin·l]n. 頂峰；頂點(diǎn)；極點(diǎn)例 This computer represents the pinnacle of artificial intelligence. 這臺(tái)計(jì)算機(jī)代表了人工智能的最高水平?！　rom [pr·m]n. 舞會(huì)例 Will you go to the prom with me· 你愿意和我去舞會(huì)嗎？　　bliss [blis]n. 極樂；福氣例 Our life was unadulterated bliss. 我們的生活幸福極了?！　escend [di'send]v. 下來(lái)；下去；下降例 Tears descend her cheeks. 她淚落兩頰?！　∥覀兯奶幾分鹦腋?，幸福其實(shí)就在我們身邊?！　∽g　　對(duì)一個(gè)孩子來(lái)說(shuō)，幸福有著夢(mèng)幻般的色彩?！　∽g　　我們?nèi)プ非笮腋＃⑺?cái)富和成功聯(lián)系起來(lái)，而沒有意識(shí)到擁有它的人并不一定更幸福?！　∽g　　It depends on what you mean.  depend on：依賴；依靠；信賴　　造　　Love， popularity and whether that zit will clear up before prom night.  clear up：把……收拾整齊；治療；處理；消除　　……
