[自我接纳] Day3 平静,危机
《Eat Pray Love》
Richard from Texas:
You have to learn to select your thoughts the same way you select your clothes every day. That's a power you can cultivate.
You wanna come here and control your life so bad, work on the mind. That's the only thing you should be trying to control. Because if you can't master your thoughts, you are in trouble forever.
"I am trying!" - Liz
Yeah, hello, that's the damn problem. Stop trying, surrender. Go out to the garden and sit down, still your mind and see what's happening. Why can't you just let it be?
平稳的情绪已经持续了快24个小时了。昨晚一起做了晚饭,讨论了实验安排,nice chatting and moment. 掏耳朵。今早起来去跑步,35 min, 3.5 km, 绕了一条新的路线,感觉很好。洗完澡做了全麦pancake, 重温了Elizabeth Gilbert的TED talk, 还在youtube上看了一个她的长访谈。
除了一切风平浪静之外,应该警惕那个时不时溜出来的念头,如果,如果我们和好呢?如果撑过这次的难关,如果答辩完我们可以有新的开始呢?这种想法,不能说不危险,因为想得多了,就忍不住觉得会是真的,就会有期待,而期待(在现在这种情况下)难免带来过高的要求和难以克制的控制欲,无论是尝试改善现状还是分析原因还是……等等之类,这些念头的背后都是,我想,我觉得,我以为……而我很可能是错的,证明我是错的必不可免的会带来自尊心受挫和下意识的防御反击。
而这看似风平浪静的状态,也许仅仅是因为我还没有遇到困难。如果现实是如此的容易,请上几天假待在家吃吃东西看看电影,打两针鸡血说一切困难都是纸老虎,只要想通了就能克服困难解决问题……那么,我们又是如何走到今天这个地步的呢?
