今天是大师游戏第95天星期六,继续读Treya的故事,雪上加霜的是Treya还患上了糖尿病,这双重打击不仅没有击垮Treya,反而使Treya更强大了。
I watched all of this with a mixture of admiration, amazement, and envy. It would have been so easy for her to stay bitter, self-pitying, jaded. But instead she seemed to
become more open, more loving, more forgiving, more compassionate. And she got stronger by the day, apparently along the lines of Nietzsche: "That which does not
destroy me makes me stronger."
Treya完全可以变得愁眉苦脸怨天尤人,但是她却向相反的方向发展了,她变得更加开放、爱、原谅和富有同情心。
Suddenly it seems OK to be what I am. To have an amorphous professional life. To get involved invarious projects that move me and inspire me. To learn more about creating environments in which things
can happen. To bring people together, to network. To communicate, to make ideas known. To let it unfold and not try to force myself into a form.
看着自己喜欢的项目和使命,Treya突然释然了,完全接纳了自己目前的处境,是那种“超级喜欢我自己,什么样的我都可以”的感觉。
What a sense of relief and freedom! Just living is OK! Being is OK, doing isn't necessarily necessary. It's a kind of allowing. Of letting go of this society's overly masculine and hyper-doing values. To work onthe whole issue of women's
spirituality, the feminine faces of
God. To settle down, to till the soil
in one place and see what will grow
there.
这是一种自由的感觉,这种感觉来自于允许,允许自己遵从自己的内心,而不是社会强加给自己的价值。
The first thing that grew there was the Cancer Support Community (CSC), an organization that would eventually offer support services and education, free of charge, to over three hundred and fifty cancer patients a week.
CSC就是Treya内心想要创造的价值,Treya希望可以给病人们提供最好的支持和服务。> Our CSC felt like a more feminine approach, with less emphasis on fighting
cancer or on recovering from cancer, and more emphasis on overall quality of life during the whole process. We didn't want to set it up so people felt they failed or lost
somehow if the cancer remained, which seems to be the drawback of Harold'sapproach. When Vicky showed the materials to her friends at the Stephen Levine retreat, all of whom have recurring and metastatic cancer, their general comments were things like "I'm not sure I like the toneof this," "Could I come if my cancer didn't go away?," "What if I felt I'd
accepted my cancer and wasn't into fighting it, would I fit in there?"
Treya想创造的CSC和其它类似的组织不大一样,其它机构的重点一般放在如果和疾病做斗争以及如何康复,而Treya想把重点放在Being上,即你想如何和疾病相处,你想成为什么样的人,活出什么样的人生。
