尼采说过这样一句话:“不尊重死亡的人,不懂得敬畏生命。”的确,我们每个人自出生开始,就面临着死亡,它看起来是那样稀松平常。我知道我终将死去,于是才决定用尽全部力气,努力地生活!
一 不妨用“ 临终视角“体验生命!
如果我们把“时间”想象成一根横轴,起点是出生之日,终点是生命结束之时。然后,再试想把我们观察和思考事物的时间点拉动到“生命结束”的那个时刻,我们究竟会看到些什么?
“临终视角”之所以与众不同,最关键的原因在于它打破了我们平时观察和思考的狭窄维度。你会发现,只有站在了这个特别的时间节点之上,我们才能清晰的看到哪些事物才是我们真正珍视的?哪些事物才是我们真正在意的?没做什么会让我们感到特别遗憾?做了什么能让我们感到由衷满足?或者觉得此生没有虚度?
布朗尼·维尔是一位曾经做过多年临终关怀的作家,当维尔问那些临终病人,他们人生里是否有什么遗憾,如果人生可以重来他们想要改变些什么时,他们的回答出奇的相似。
“我希望我当初有勇气去过自己的生活,而不是他人希望我过的生活。”
在澳大利亚,有个名叫布罗妮·瓦尔的护士,多年来一直从事舒缓疗法护理工作,照顾生命仅剩12周的病人。
她将自己的观察和感受写成了一本书,名为《人在弥留之际的五大憾事》:
1. 一生都在按别人的期望生活,没有勇气活出真正的自己;
2. 过于拼命工作、挣钱,错过了陪伴家人;
3. 没有勇气表达自己真实的想法和感受;
4. 没有和朋友保持联络;
5. 没能让自己活得开心点;
二 列出你的“遗愿清单”
在《遗愿清单》这部电影里,两个被癌症判了死刑的老头,合写了一份遗愿清单,并决定要在被死神带走之前去一一完成。
你这一生感受过喜悦吗?
纹身,跳伞,尽情大笑,亲最美的女孩~
1. Help a complete stranger for the good.
2. Laugh until I cry.
3. Kiss the most beautiful girl in the world.
4.Witness something truly majestic......
你这一生感受过喜悦吗?
未别人带去过欢笑吗?
在最后的六个月期间,也许是因为时间的紧迫感以及目标的可视化,他们成功完成了所有的遗愿清单。
我也在其他的博客里搜索到一个人写的“100 exciting things I want to do before I die”在死神来临前需要做的100件事情
I urge you to think about 100 things to do before you die. Living without a vision is simply a waste of time. If you don’t get up every morning pumped up with energy to make your day the most amazing one, you don’t have an exciting life goals list.
This post is a result of an inspiring chat I had with Helene Schmit in Hubud, a co-working space in Ubud, a little jungle town in Bali, Indonesia. Before I met Helene, I was familiar with the “bucket list” or “list of things I want to do before I die” concept but never took the time to sit and write down my life goals.
Visualize this thing that you want, see it, feel it, believe in it. Make your mental blue print, and begin to build. – Robert Collier
Helene shared her own list and suggested me to check Tal Gur’s life goals list that sparked my curiosity to find out what I truly want to achieve in life. Forming this list took me a couple of days of thinking, brainstorming and rewriting until I could finally call it my “100 things I want to do before I die” list.

人生的意义是什么?有人说人生的意义就是为了寻找人生的意义,有人说人生的意义就是爱与美食,还有人说人生的意义可以靠追随别人取得,但亲爱的,放轻松,试想下如果你们的生命只剩下几个月或者一年的时间,你们会用这段时间拿来做哪些一直想做的事情呢?
正是因为我们终将死去,我们才要拼尽全力去生活。最重要的是把握每一个当下,勇敢地活出自己!
