地上走的爱

我想每个人一生中或多或少都会有些对爱的梦想。尤其那年少时的纯洁与真心。我最近在吴淡如《爱的幽默》里读到: “对於爱,我们越来越小心,从前的那种勇气,大声说我爱你的勇气,已经消失得没有痕迹。甜蜜十七岁的爱情,那种没有你,我活不下去的真情,如今只活在我们的回忆里。” 我想人在成长中不可能不改变。想要活的快乐,就得想方设法地忘记过去的伤心事。一生中我们会遇见许多五花八门的人,有些萍水相逢,淡淡的不留太多记忆。有些曾深藏你的心可留给你只是今生不愈的伤痕。有些则让你永生难忘。也许他做的并不惊天动地,可对你的影响却很大。 最近许多人说我变了,更成熟了。我有时也觉好笑。不知是对是错。常常也有如墨水般渲开的忧郁。可在这样的忧郁里,我也快乐着,曾经那么生嫩却生气勃勃的活过。 不久的将来我会正式地给过去画上一个句号,重新开始一段属於自己的生命。也该和爱的梦想告别一下,去为自己的未来奋斗了。如果你是我的朋友就该明白,我已经做了决定,不再需要太多意见了。 如今的我似乎早已做到的我所说的了。荣荣最近来信说我不再在天上飞而是在地上走了。其实也只是一眨眼的功夫。我生活的重心改变了很多。我并不想说”没有你,我活不下去的真情”?已离我而去。但我确实知道了人的感情生活是很难十全十美的。由其像我这样想象过於充分,相信琼瑶那句”怎一个爱字了得”的人。我想爱情的惊险和感伤是紧紧相连的。出生的牛犊喜爱惊险,对爱也是一样。经历过的人有时会觉得日夜相守的爱过於平静,其实之中的真情不亚于前者。平淡而不厌烦,还常有幸福的感觉应该更是难能可贵的吧。而我也庆幸找到一个爱我比爱他自己更多的男人。天上飞的爱也许浩荡,地上走的爱因长久,不是吗?
