【第七屆】107學年度靜思語與我的生命故事徵文比賽_精選_傳播系二年級_黃姿寧_詩籤


「尊重。一個人的快樂,不是因為他擁有的多,而是因為他計較的少。」女孩輕輕地唸出手上的粉紅色詩籤,冷風輕撫過她的臉龐,女孩微微顫抖著。

外頭持續下著綿綿細雨,來到花蓮第二個月,尚未遇見心中的「知己」。一個人去上課,一個人吃學餐,一個人去圖書館。在高中老師的催眠下,原以為,進入大學的生活會更加多采多姿,夜唱夜衝,跟朋友們看海唱歌。然而,這些美好的大學生公式,似乎,還無法被套用在我身上了。

拎著鮮豔的小黃傘在擁擠的電梯角落中掙一口空氣,如同與他人隔絕,徒留我一人,孤單地望著這世界。究竟是我對同學太過冷淡?應該不會吧,我也有主動與同學交談呀,還是我太過熱情,同學們不敢太接近呢? 抑或是我一開學就得罪了誰呢?不斷想著這些複雜的人情問題,讓我覺得小腦袋都要燒壞了。

負面思緒不斷侵襲著我,一走出那令我窒息的小空間,就聽到雨聲嘩啦嘩啦。撐起唯一伴著我的小黃傘,踏入雨中。

偌大的雨滴,滴滴打落在行人的肩上。逐漸被雨水沾濕的外套,如同逐漸被沒來由的淚水縱橫的臉龐。或許是對自己失望,或許是懷念家的溫暖,淚水就不聽話的潰堤了。
  
   拭去淚痕,眼前一籃靜思籤擺放在小桌上,明知道這不是廟宇的問神求籤,卻忍不住雙手合十閉眼祈求,祈求菩薩賜我智慧,祈求上人指引明燈。閉著眼朝小籃子抽了一捲靜思籤,卻害怕得不敢打開。「他能給我力量嗎?他會賜予我智慧嗎?」我輕輕抽出詩籤,一字一句,深深地在心底刻下。

教室裡的學生,三三兩兩彼此作伴。只有我,沒有拉著同學一起上通識課,獨自倚窗坐長桌。正當心底覺得苦悶無助時,突然想起了那小詩籤裏頭寫的靜思語,是阿,只要以自己最真實的樣貌活著,總會意氣相投之人前來與我作伴,又何必計較世間那些複雜的交際呢,況且,換個想法,獨自一人坐長桌不僅寬敞,隨意坐也不怕輕觸到他人而尷尬的笑著道歉不是嗎?

拿出口袋中的粉紅色靜思語詩籤,我輕聲念出,「尊重。一個人的快樂,不是因為他擁有的多,而是因為他計較的少。」那瞬間,一切豁然開朗,窗外的細雨不斷,風輕撫過我的臉龐,雖然冷得令我顫抖,但就像魔法少女念出咒語般,使我在暴風中重新脫胎換骨,微笑著,成為更堅強的自己。

     在一堂慈濟人文課中我們到了精舍參訪,因緣際會下師姐發給我們一本靜思語手冊,當時的我好奇翻開來看了看,無心翻到這句「樂觀面對,逆境易過;煩惱埋怨,苦痛無盡」,內心非常澎湃,決定把我的故事寫下來。

    我是一個悲觀的時候比誰都悲觀的人。其實我都知道,很多時候如果換個想法換個角度想,很快就能度過難關。在心情很不好的時候總是埋怨、不想靠近其他人,不想把不好的自己呈現出來,更覺得沒有人能夠理解我的想法,等到有人來找我講話關心我,我才能敞開心胸去訴說自己的心情。

    身為雙魚座的女孩,就如同兩隻魚,有兩種我,心情可以馬上說變就變,一個人的時候可以又哭又笑,情緒就寫在臉上,騙不了任何人,感性甚至遠大於理性。從小到大,只有母親能夠看穿我,心情好的時候聽我唱歌聽我分享大小事,心情不好的時候一個眼神就能看穿更不用言語就知道我當下需要聊聊或者靜一靜,聽我抱怨的時候從來都不會負荷我,但卻能夠用溫柔的言語讓我明白其實事情還有很多轉機,並能夠讓我改變想法。

   上了大學不像從前,心情不好就能夠找媽媽談。記得前幾週,整整一個禮拜心情都非常差,不想和任何人說我的心情,只選擇逃避大家、選擇一個人出去走走,當時的我能有多封閉就可以多封閉,不敢打電話回家,課業上也毫無心思。我以為這樣的我能夠治癒好自己,沒錯,一個人可以自由自在無拘無束,沒人和你爭和你吵架,但能包容自己受傷的心的人也只剩下自己,是孤單是寂寞。直到有位同學看不下去,也受不了我這樣,所以用他的眼光他的角度責罵我,當下卻因為壓抑自己太久就崩潰了。老實說我很理性的說完自己的事,他依然無法理解,我覺得全世界都不能懂我,但幸好他沒有放棄我,並且陪著我度過,讓我知道即使別人無法感同身受,也能夠撫慰我的心,才又再一次的願意面對自己,很謝謝他即時出現,不然我想我還是沒有勇氣面對自己吧。

    過了幾天漸漸好起來後,看著一望無際的天空,我笑了,原來天空也願意為你敞開心房,月亮也正對著你微笑,太陽依舊為了你照亮整個心房,哭吧笑吧,會好起來的,「樂觀面對,逆境易過;煩惱埋怨,苦痛無盡」改變心境並告訴自己:我很棒!有一天能夠成為夜空中最閃亮的星。

【第七屆】107學年度靜思語與我的生命故事徵文比賽_精選_護理系四年級_張淨涵_互助成就我們


    人的一生是不斷學習的過程,經過各式各樣事件的洗禮,才能淬鍊出處事的經驗,而在這些過程中常常會與他人互動及合作,因成長背景不同,使得處事態度及思考邏輯都會有所差異,在沒有良性溝通的情況下,就造成了彼此不諒解,只看著自己而忘了合作的意義,「好事,需要你、我、他共同來成就。所以,不要有你、我、他的成見」上人的靜思語,讓我從只看著自己,只傾聽自己的心,遵照自己的想法的自我意識中跳脫,我將自己的想法先放在一旁,聆聽他人的聲音,開始思考為什麼大家會有不同的想法,而開始分析想法背後所存在的利與弊,及其中心的精神,我發現其實在為同一件事的合作上,大家都是想將事情做到最好,因此會有不同的想法出現,也因為大家看待事情出發的角度不同,才能夠使得事情能夠更全面的被檢視,我學習感恩他人給予的提點,而這份感恩使得大家更相互包容體諒,也使得事情達成所願目標,由我們共同完成的一份好事,雖然不近乎完美,但整個過程卻讓我們更懂得體諒及傾聽,「合心為善,和氣付出,互愛讚歎,伸手協力。」人相互的依賴及協助,才能造就更好的世界。

【第七屆】107學年度靜思語與我的生命故事徵文比賽_精選_Master Program in Microbiology and Immunology_Febri Gunawan Sugiokto_Living as Religious People


My name is Febri Gunawan and I am an international student from Indonesia. Living in Tzu Chi environment is an excellent opportunity because every day I can learn new things from Jing Si Aphorism. Every day I always pass Humanity Classroom to my Laboratory in D312. I sometimes take Jing Si Aphorism in front of Humanity Classroom as my daily motivation and learn new thing from Master. One of the most impressed me is Atheism is better than superstition. Faith must be guided by wisdom. When I read these sentences, my heart was moved. In my life, I used to believe some superstitions, such as breaking glass you will get bad luck for seven years, whistling at night will invite ghosts, and the most well-known is August as “Ghost month”. My mother always said: “you can not go outside, maybe you think he/she is your friend but actually a ghost” or “you can not buy food outside because it will become rotten”. Like a good child, I just follow my parent advice. At the first time, I think in Taiwan the reaction will be worse because I think Chinese people more believe in superstitions. And I am afraid, it will bother me because almost every day I go back to the dorm almost at 11 pm. Shockingly, last year in 2018, Master Cheng Yen said that August is “Lucky Month” not “Ghost Month”. I learned that there is no such a bad day, but every day is a good day if we have a good heart. From Master’s Aphorism, I understand that if I believe in such superstitions I am no better than Atheist.
On the other hand, faith is something that we can not see but we have to believe it. Generally, faith is not always related to religion. When believing in faith, sometimes I just prayed and just wait for a miracle to happen or sometimes I force God to do what I want. But I realize from Jing Si Aphorism, it does not work like that. Faith must be guided by wisdom, not by lust. Living in faith has taught me that everything I have now is the best for me and always be grateful. Not looking other people who can use branded clothes, bags, shoes but I have to see other people in another place who do not have access to clean water and live in poverty.

【第七屆】107學年度靜思語與我的生命故事徵文比賽_精選_社工系二年級_呂詩婷_爺爺教會我的事—謙虛


  我,出生在一個樸實的農村家庭,放眼望去附近並沒有高樓林立的景象,映入眼簾的都是一畝又一畝的田,每每春耕的時候,爺爺總會拉著我的手一起到田裡插秧,在機器還不盛行的年代,播種需要依靠人力的幫忙,印象中爺爺插秧時有特殊的步驟,並不是像一般散步的樣子,而是用倒退的方式到某格時又得換一個步伐,要一直反覆的做一樣的動作,正如俗諺云:「起工對清明,播田倒退行」的寫照。

  直至秋天就可以準備到田裡收耕,爺爺總是一手握著鐮刀一手牽著我。「哇!滿滿一片金麥色的稻子」我興奮的三步併兩步走到田裡,此時,爺爺總會提醒我要仔細看稻子成熟的樣子,他告訴我一句靜思語:米粒愈飽滿,垂得愈低。懵懂無知的我當時只是左耳進右耳出。

    歲月如同一把銳利的刀,毫不留情的逝去。當爺爺脫離人世間疾苦時,我坐在爺爺的床邊,床旁放著一個相框,相框裡面的相片是爺爺年輕時割稻的模樣。憶起他從前不斷地教我做人道理,我卻是一味的忽視,正如高中名列前茅的我總是目中無人,與同儕的關係也越來越疏遠,但其實一山還有一山高,升上大學後,我一直謹記這句話,適時的保持謙虛態度,故現在的我與同儕間也建立良好的橋樑,我想這事爺爺教會我的事—謙虛。

  靜謐的夜晚,緊握著照片,空氣中瀰漫一股稻子的味道,過往一幕幕在田裡收割的畫面歷歷在目,淚,不自覺地滑過臉頰,彷彿爺爺還在身旁提醒著我謙虛的重要……


【第七屆】107學年度靜思語與我的生命故事徵文比賽_精選_物治系二年級_蘇芫婷_一個重要的決定


    很多時候,很多隱藏在心裡的話往往讓人很難脫口而出,而有些情感也並不是簡單的一字一句可以表達的。可是,這時候的我除了這句“媽媽,您辛苦了”真的再無其它可說。

    時光荏苒,不知不覺我已踏入人生的第二階段,想起以前簡直不堪入目。小時候,我對媽媽的印象就是個“母老虎”,除了嚴厲還就只剩下嚴厲。只要我一犯錯,媽媽就會對我大發雷霆並狠狠地責罰我,所以每次被責罵後我都會打從心底地埋怨。小時候,看著窗外的小朋友在玩耍,我卻只能在做功課、上補習班、上舞蹈班,週末還要面對鋼琴一整天。正值少女花季那些年,同學都會有許多的新衣而我的衣服量卻遠遠無法填滿一個衣櫥。總在想為何別人可以含著金鑰匙出生,自己時刻付出一萬倍的努力也無法觸及別人的十萬分之一而想要放棄。

     上了中學,我便成了固執又霸道的人,對媽媽的教導充耳不聞甚至還變本加厲地忤逆她。直到有一天,放學的時候下了豆大般的雨點,無奈之下只好快步走回家,但天不作美,頓時下起了傾盆大雨,只好跑到附近商店的屋簷下避雨,雨勢之大讓我心中不禁擔憂了起來。這時一個熟悉的身影出現了,是媽媽。回家途中,我想起了媽媽早上吩咐我要帶傘出門的事,突然一輛車從我們身旁飛馳而過,媽媽迅速地用她的身子為我檔了濺起的水花。最後,媽媽還因此發燒感冒了三天卻絲毫沒有責怪我,在那百感交集的夜晚我頓時就醒了。
從那以後,我便立誓要成為媽媽的避風港為她遮風擋雨,讓她無憂無慮地過好每一天,所以現在的每一天都非常的珍惜當下並且努力前進著。我想這一句靜思語“任何事都是從一個決心一粒種子開始”最能詮釋我的故事了吧。

【第七屆】107學年度靜思語與我的生命故事徵文比賽_精選_東語中一年級_古英群_只要能張開眼睛,每一天都是我的新生之日,都是我做人的開始


      Life as a human being will experience childhood, adolescence, adulthood, and old age. People cannot avoid the cycle of being born, old, sick and die. Don’t know what will happen to ourselves for tomorrow or even the next second. Therefore, Master said “When we can wake up and open our eyes, each day is a birth of new life, a new beginning to start out life afresh”. In this life, people often forget about the time that will always go on, forget that no one will know about fate, or the initial purpose in this life. For this reason, it is also greedy to relax, procrastinate thinking that there is still time for tomorrow. Living amid this uncertainty makes some people think of living happily because life is only once.
But what is the real meaning of “Happy” means? Does having a property called happy? Have a lot of wealth, beauty, always get what we want, have a perfect look, have the power will make the word of happy appear? Maybe at that time will feel happy about what is owned, but it will not mean anything if people are gone. Because either the goods nor the body won’t be taken away when people died. The last treasure that can be taken is not gold or money, but the prayers and karma. Therefore, as long as still can breathe, let’s become a useful person for those around. Don't be afraid to lend a hand when someone needs it, don't be tired to continue to do positive activities, don't be bored to try every day and don't feel satisfied and sufficient for the good thing that is made today. Although sometimes people often accidentally make mistakes, but as a human, make a mistake is a common thing and the main point is how to correct those errors, so those things does not happen again.
Humans are basically like white paper that has not been given a scratch, depending on how the owner give lines and colors to that paper. The old version of me is someone who is very timely-delaying, feel that still have a long time and why should be hurry while those things can be delayed. But, it is a very wrong mindset. However, the mindset has been in my head for years, make myself continue to be in the safe zone, do the work a day before the deadline, still delay doing work even though I have free time. After growing more mature and able to think more openly, and because of the advice from parents making aware that time is very limited and what has happened cannot be repeat. It's never too late to change into a better person in the future. Not the word of "can't" which makes us fall, but the word of "don't want to try more" and "want to give up" which keeps us at the same point of mistaken. So, while we can still wake up and open our eyes today, living like today is the last day of your life, doing things that make life feel useful, spread positive energy and love because no one knows what happens tomorrow, so that there is no regret in this life.
Develop wings to look out to the world, and will realize that there is much lesson can learn from life, that there are still many people who cannot ask for more time when some of healthy people waste the time that given. The clock will always tick. Therefore, leave the white paper filled with colors that are meaningful to start a new life.
