"Life is made of moments, small pieces of silver amidst long stretches of tedium. It would be wonderful if they came to us unsummoned, but particularly in lives as busy as the ones most of us lead now, that won't happen. We have to teach ourselves now to live, really live...to love the journey, not the destination."
In this treasure of a book, Anna Quindlen, the bestselling novelist and columnist, reflects on what it takes to "get a life"—to live deeply every day and from your own unique self, rather than merely to exist through your days. "Knowledge of our own mortality is the greatest gift God ever gives us," Quindlen writes, "because unless you know the clock is ticking, it is so easy to waste our days, our lives." Her mother died when Quindlen was nineteen: "It was the dividing line between seeing the world in black and white, and in Technicolor. The lights came on for the darkest possible reason....I learned something enduring, in a very short period of time, about life. And that was that it was glorious, and that you had no business taking it for granted." But how to live from that perspective, to fully engage in our days? In A Short Guide to a Happy Life, Quindlen guides us with an understanding that comes from knowing how to see the view, the richness in living.
多年前我讀的第一本原版書。很短,讀瞭很多遍。
評分超級短 哈哈 而且各種重復話 感覺不如畢業論文常啊 最後一句忘不瞭 see the view
評分文字太美,全文每句話都可以裱起來。 Think of life as a terminal illness, because, if you do, you will live it with joy and passion, as it ought to be lived.
評分一本書加起來也就是一篇長一點的心靈雞湯
評分真的很短啊...
I remember John Lennon wrote before he was gunned down in the driveway of Dakota; '' Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans.'' School never ends, classroom is everywhere, the exam comes at the very end.
