老同学

这几天来自澳洲的老同学来访,多年后的相聚,再没有比这更令人开心的事了,一杯茶,一盘瓜子,三天内想把三十年的峥嵘岁月聊个痛快,我们谈话速度像机关枪,思路跳跃轻盈,人说三个女人一台戏,我们俩个不惑之年的女人轻而易举地唱了一台半的戏,阵阵的说笑声让旁听的小猫乐肥露出惊诧的表情,它一定认为主人和客人都错乱了.

五年同窗,同学间的认识是平视的效果,几十年后的彼此的了解就是立体的了.我们聊得最多的不是事业的成就也不是生活得失,而是我们在多变的环境中如何调整心态的经验.不论你是明星还是普通的家庭妇女,中年女人的生活质量在很大程度上取决于她调整心态的功力.

遥想当年,走出学校,跨出国门,青春的心追求发展的欲望像潮水一样挡都挡不住,义无反顾地全力冲出了地理的限制,几十年过去了,他乡的山水草木,世态炎凉把女孩变成女人,成熟的女人,不会徒劳过分地修饰外表了,她比任何时候都更加懂得面对自己的内心.

岁月流逝方显女人本色,在为老公生,为儿子活了二十年后的今天,是时候扪心自问下半生究竟要一个怎样的活法.我们懂得,一个人一天只吃三顿饭,只睡一张床,精神上的富足让我们潇洒地告别昨日的幼稚,勇敢地承认既往的失误,用坎坷磨练出的智慧和对生活热爱的激情去编织一个五彩缤纷的未来.

A Mid-Life Crisis

"The first and greatest victory is to conquer yourself; to be conquered by yourself is of all things most shameful and vile." – Plato

I suppose one of the reasons why so many people take a year abroad is to “find themselves”. We like to pretend that it is for academic reasons, but we’re not fooling anyone. Whether that be exposing your inner party Erasmus self, or finding an enlightened traveller of the world within you, there’s a lot to be accounted for in what, in proportion to our entire life, is such a small period of time.

One of the hardest things I had to accept when changing countries was that I would lose friends, and make new ones. That’s not to say that I didn’t want to make new friends; I just didn’t want to leave the old ones behind. Part of my Year Abroad will soon be a distant memory, yet I would have to revisit many of the hardships I faced at the beginning of the entire journey.

This feeling may well be recognisable for many people staying in one country, or even those at home. People come; people go. Those friends that can only stay for a term must take their next step, and so we all find ourselves in a position of isolation and friendlessness. So here we go again: getting to know a new city, understanding the language, making friends, finding a routine in life. I did it before, and I can do it again. Yet this time, I don’t want to.

It is my inner self who is telling me that “I don’t want to do this again”. That’s probably because it really is “effort”. But I cannot let my instinctive emotions control my thoughts. I may not want to make friends now, or study, but I cannot and will not be conquered by myself. My thoughts and being are separate: my thoughts can change, but I can never change who I am. It takes discipline and understanding of yourself to know that you will enjoy your new life and that you are capable of changing your own thoughts. After all, life is what you make it.

During my first two weeks in Zaragoza, I did not stay in the house. I did not go onto Skype every minute of the day, nor did I reject the thought of making new friends. I did not stay awake at night, wrestling with thoughts that I could not control. I accepted that my life has changed and I have moved on. Those moments of weakness, where I missed home and friends, I accepted that. It’s normal to feel alone. There have been times where I have wanted to go out and buy new clothing, eat a mountain of chocolate and feel sick and sad inside. I will not give into these insecurities.

In those moments when I feel capable of controlling my emotions, I feel very proud of myself. It takes a lot of discipline, but it builds character. One thing my Dad said to me was that good and bad things come in threes. But then, when you think about it, all good and bad is subjected to your own thoughts. The more we can control our thoughts, the more we can conquer ourselves.

Sick stuff, Plato.

I know. I’m way too cheesy to be writing a blog.�
