The Burned Biscuits
When I was a kid, my mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner every now and then.
And I remember one night in particular when she had made breakfast after a long, hard day at work.
On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage and extremely burned biscuits in front of my dad当我还是个孩子的时候,我妈妈喜欢时不时地做早餐和晚餐。
我特别记得有一天晚上,她在辛苦工作了一天之后做了早餐。
很久以前,我妈妈把香肠和饼干放在我的盘子里.
I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed!
Yet all my dad did was reach for his biscuit, smile at my mom and ask me how my day was at school.
I don't remember what I told him that night, but I do remember watching him eating biscuits happily!
When I got up from the table that evening, I remember hearing my mom apologize to my dad for burning the biscuits.我记得等着看有没有人注意到!
然而,我爸爸所做的只是伸手去拿饼干,对我妈妈微笑,问我今天在学校过得怎么样。
我不记得那天晚上我跟他说了什么,但我确实记得看着他开心地吃饼干!
那天晚上我从桌子上起来的时候,我记得听到妈妈因为烧坏饼干而向爸爸道歉。
And I'll never forget what he said: "Honey, I love burned biscuits every now and then."
Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good-night and I asked him if he really liked his biscuits burned.
He wrapped me in his arms and said,
"Your Momma put in a hard day at work today and she's really tired. And besides, a
little burned biscuit will never hurt anyone!"
As I've grown older, I've thought about that many times.
Life is full of imperfect things and imperfect people.
Learning to accept each other's faults is one of the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting relationship.我永远也忘不了他说的话:“亲爱的,我喜欢时不时烧焦的饼干。”
那天晚上晚些时候,我去吻爸爸道晚安,我问他是否真的喜欢烤饼干。
他把我抱在怀里说,
“你妈妈今天工作很辛苦,她真的很累。另外,一个
烧焦的饼干不会伤害任何人!”
随着年龄的增长,我想了很多次。
生活中充满了不完美的东西和不完美的人。
学会接受对方的缺点是建立健康、成长和持久关系的最重要的关键之一。
美文阅读笔记
㈠没有领略过大地的广漠,不足以欣赏高空的深远。没有领受过深深的自卑,不足以享有持久的自信。
谦恭是自信戴着自卑的面具出场。”任何谦恭的人,都一定程度上具备自卑的属性。但他们的自卑不是为了对生活消极,而是张扬着生命的自信。
㈡在人生的这一幅画图里,善绘的人,笔笔都是黄金,不会画的人,即使以金泥为墨,也不能作出好画。
山中的烛火熄了,不仅要照看自己的脚下,还要以自己的眼睛和心灵为灯,小心地走路。这个世界上虽有许多人可以告诉我们远处美丽的风景,却没有一个人能代替我们走茫茫的夜路。只要点燃心中的灯,一心一意地生活下去,便可以展现充实的生命。
㈢戴上口罩的一张脸,就像戴上了一张面具。说到面具,在古典时期,演员表演不怎么依靠脸,在莎士比亚的舞台上,演员会戴着面具或半面具。中国的戏曲演员画着浓重的戏妆,白脸、黑脸、红脸分别代表着不同的人设。与其说古代由于观众距离舞台太远,演员的五官和表情必须很夸张,观众才能领会到,不如说古代人想象力更发达,他们的审美更加写意,更能够欣赏到“面纱魔力”带来的诗意之美。
托马斯·马乔在《剖析图像权力》里说:“脸是我们身上代表了社会性的那一部分,身体则属于自然。”因此,人在凝视镜子中的自己时,都会有一种面具感。一旦开始自我观察,我们就会立即失去那种本能的自我表达。所以在镜子面前,我们总是不自觉地做鬼脸,这样做的目的只有一个——逃离面具的牢笼。同理,一张裸在众人面前的脸,多数是经过调整和装饰的表情,未必会真实地表达自我。反之,只有躲在口罩后面的人脸,敢于呈现最自然的状态。
