平平淡淡的众生亦是最美的组成

生活不是一味的追求轰轰烈烈，不需要多么绚丽，要的是一种宁静，平淡。人生有欢喜也有忧愁，而我们只要在平淡的生活中用心去感受，用宽容和微笑去面对，生活就一定会美满，幸福。

就像平凡的杜鹃花不流于它的争奇斗艳、雍容华贵，而是特写它的清爽、舒展，那是对大自然无处不在的美的陶醉，同时也意喻人生的精彩并不只在于轰轰烈烈、惊天动地，平平淡淡的众生亦是最美的组成。

接下来请欣赏 Ralph Waldo Emerson-拉尔夫沃尔多.爱默生所写的

The Rhodora紫杜鹃

---

In May, when sea-winds pierced oursolitudes,

五月，海风刺透静寂

| found the fresh Rhodora in the woods,

林中忽遇紫杜鹃

Spreading its leafless blooms in a damp nook,

叶空，花满，遍缀湿地

To please the desert and the sluggish brook.

荒原缓溪为之一亮

The purple petals fallen in the pool

紫瓣缤纷飘落

Made the black water with their beauty gay;

黑水斑驳艳丽

Here might the red-bird come his plumes to cool,

绯鸟或暂歇凉

And court the flower that cheapens his array.

爱花瓣令羽色黯淡

Rhodora! if the sages ask thee why

若问汝何以

This charm is wasted on the earth and sky,

绝色虚掷天地.

Tell them, dear, that, if eyes were made for seeing,

请谓之:眼为视而生

Then beauty is its own excuse for Being;

则美为美而在

Why thou wert there, O rival of the rose!

与玫瑰竞色

| never thought to ask; | never knew;

何必问缘起

But in my simple ignorance suppose

吾来看汝，汝自开落

The self-same power that brought me there, brought you.

缘起同一
