加载中…野草--作者：夏衍
(2025-01-24 17:29:40) 结果,这一切答案完全不对,世界上气力最大的,是植物的种子.一粒种子所可以显现出来的力,简直是超越-切.这儿又是一个故事.
没有一个人将小草叫做"大力士",但是它的力量之大,的确是世界无比.这种力,是一般人看不见的生命力,只要生命存在,这种力就要显现,上面的石块,丝毫不足以阻挡,因为它是一种"长期抗战"的力,有弹性,能屈能伸的力,有韧性,不达目的不止的力.
There is a
story which goes like this:
Someone asked, "What is the most powerful
thing in the world?" There was a variety of answers. "Elephant,"
someone said. "Lion," another said. "Buddha's guardian warrior,"
still another said half-jokingly. As to how powerful the Buddha's
guardian warrior was, no one was sure.
In fact none of the answers was correct.
The most powerful thing in the world is the seed of plants. The
force displayed by a seed is simply incomparable. Here goes another
story:
The bones of a human skull are so tightly
and firmly joined that no physiologist and anatomist had succeeded
in taking them apart whatever means they tried. Then someone
invented a method. He put sonic seeds of a plant in the skull to be
dissected and provided the necessary temperature and moisture to
make them germinate. Once the seeds germinated, they manifested a
terrible force with which he succeeded in opening up the human
skull that had failed to be opened even by mechanical
means.
You may think this is too unusual a story
to be grasped by the common mind. Well, have you ever seen how the
bamboo shoots grow? Have you ever seen how frail young grass grow
out from under debris and rubble? In order to get the sunshine and
bring its will to grow into play, no matter how heavy the rocks are
and how narrow the space between the rocks, it will wind its way up
irresistibly, its roots drilling downward and its sprouts shooting
upward. This is an irresistible force. Any rock lying in its way
will be overturned. This again shows how powerful a seed can
be.
Though the little grass has never been
said to be herculean, the power it shows is matchless in the world.
It is an invisible force of life. So long as there is life, the
force will show itself. The rock above it is not heavy enough to
prevent it from growing because it is a force that keeps growing
over a period of time, because it is an elastic force that can
shrink and expand, because it is a tenacious force that will not
stop growing until it is grown.
The seed does not choose to fall on
fertile land but among debris. If it is filled with life, it is
never pessimistic or sad, for it is tempered by resistance and
pressure. The grass that fights its way out since the moment it is
hom can be called "strong' and “temacious"; only
the grass that fights its way up since its birth has the right to
laugh with justified pride at the potted plants in glassed green
houses.
