人老了是什么感觉?《英;莫里斯》

       人老了是什么感觉?《英;莫里斯》
    按: “时间都去哪儿了,还没好好感受年轻就老了”。莫里斯是一名英国旅行文学作家,年轻时当过兵,也曾随行登顶珠峰……他一生足迹甚广,经历颇丰,晚年的他又该是什么模样?就让我们一起来听听他怎么说。
    一天,一个年轻人问我:人老了是什么样的感觉。我一下怔住了,因为我还从来没有想到过——我已经老了。
    或许在我的生命中,这是第一次,我感觉我活出了理想中的自我。很多时候,我也对自己的身体感觉到绝望:满脸的皱纹,松弛的眼袋,下垂的屁股。我也常常因为看到镜中老态龙钟的自己而感到震惊,但我不会为这些事情痛苦不堪。
    我永远也不会去用真挚的友谊、精彩的生活或温馨的亲情,去换取少一些白发和扁平的肚子。我老了,也就更懂得去善待自己,对自己少了些苛刻。我成了我自己的朋友。我不会因为自己多吃了一片甜饼,或没有整理床铺,或花钱买了自己根本不需要的膨胀螺丝而斥责自己。我见过太多的好友过早地离开了这个世界,还没有来得及安心享受这伴随着年老而来的宝贵的自由。
    如果我愿意,我可以看书、玩电脑一直到凌晨四点,然后再一觉睡到过午;如果我愿意,我可以独自一人听着五六十年代的优美旋律而翩然起舞;如果我愿意,我可以为我逝去的爱情一洒伤心之泪,想哭就哭;如果我愿意,我可以穿着被发福的身体绷得紧紧的泳装在海滩上悠然漫步,然后纵情跃入海浪之中,才不管那些身着比基尼的人向我投来的怜悯目光。她们也会变老的。
    我知道,我的记性不好了。可话又说回来,生活中的有些事情该忘记的就应该忘记。当我们到达生命的终点,我只带上一生中那些最美好的回忆。
    我竟有这样的福气,黑发变成了银丝,青春的欢笑在我的脸上雕刻出了道道皱纹。有多少的人,还没有开心地笑过;又有多少人,还没有熬到皓首就已经悲戚地离去。我说“不”就是不,我说“行”就是行。当你慢慢老去的时候,你就会变得更加达观,你就更不在乎别人对你的看法。我不再自我怀疑,我甚至修行来了可以犯错的权利。
    我喜欢现在的我。我不会长生不死,但只要我活着,我不会浪费生命去悔恨过往,也不会为将来而去忧虑,每天餐后,我还要吃香甜的点心——这就是年老的感觉,我喜欢年老,它给了我自由。(该文摘自百度,英文:机译)
      "Where has time gone? I grow old before I can fully feel my youth. Morris is a British travel literature writer who served as a soldier in his youth and also accompanied him to the summit of Mount Everest... He has traveled extensively throughout his life and experienced a lot. What should he look like in his later years? Let's listen to what he said together.

      One day, a young man asked me: What does it feel like to be old. I was stunned because I had never thought of it before - I was already old.

       Perhaps for the first time in my life, I feel like I have lived out my ideal self. Many times, I also feel hopeless about my body: wrinkles all over my face, sagging bags under my eyes, and sagging buttocks. I often feel shocked when I see my aging self in the mirror, but I won't suffer from these things.

       I will never trade sincere friendship, exciting life, or warm family affection for less white hair and a flat belly. As I get older, I know better how to treat myself well and be less harsh on myself. I have become my own friend. I won't scold myself for eating an extra cookie, not making the bed, or spending money to buy expansion screws that I don't even need. I have seen too many friends leave this world too early, yet have not had the time to enjoy the precious freedom that comes with aging.

        If I am willing, I can read and play computer games until 4am, and then sleep until noon; If I am willing, I can dance alone while listening to the beautiful melodies of the 1950s and 1960s; If I am willing, I can shed sad tears for my lost love, and cry whenever I want; If I were willing, I could leisurely stroll on the beach wearing a tight swimsuit with my overweight body, and then indulge in jumping into the waves, regardless of the pitiful gaze that those wearing bikinis cast at me. They will also grow old.

        I know, my memory is not good. But then again, some things in life that should be forgotten should be forgotten. When we reach the end of life, I bring only the best memories of my life.

       I have such luck, my black hair has turned into silver, and the laughter of youth has carved wrinkles on my face. How many people have not yet laughed happily; How many people have left in sorrow before they can endure until Haoshou. When I say 'no', it means' no ', and when I say' yes', it means' yes'. As you gradually age, you will become more optimistic and less concerned about how others perceive you. I no longer doubt myself, I even have the right to make mistakes in my practice.

       I like who I am now. I will not live forever, but as long as I live, I will not waste my life to regret the past, nor worry about the future. After every meal, I will eat sweet Dim sum - this is the feeling of old age. I like old age, which gives me freedom.
