“‘It’s dark because you’re trying too hard,’ said Susila. ‘Dark because you want it to be light. Remember what you used to tell me when I was a little girl. “Lightly, child, lightly. You’ve got to learn to do everything lightly. Think lightly, act lightly, feel lightly. Yes, feel lightly, even though you’re feeling deeply. Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them.” I was so preposterously serious in those days. … Lightly, lightly—it was the best advice ever given me. … So throw away all your baggage and go forward. There are quicksands all about you, sucking at your feet, trying to suck you down into fear and self-pity and despair. That’s why you must walk so lightly. Lightly, my darling.”
— Aldous Huxley, Island, 1962
这不是“谁认真谁就输”这种论调的衍生,而是对自己能掌控及对自己产生影响事物的更清晰认知。手攥得越紧,越抓不住沙子,这个与认真无关,是种向内而生的心态。
磨练心智,需要更轻一些,需要在压力当中,在“流沙”当中,轻轻地走向自己内心。
