(单词翻译:单击)
一首舒缓的歌曲,叫做"Weeping Willow Tree"(哭泣的柳树),来自于Lainey Wright。看这首歌的歌词我看到画面是一个悲伤痛苦的女子在柳树面前,希望柳树也为自己哭泣,可能是被一种孤独深深地笼罩吧。最有感觉的那句是:To bend my limbs down to the ground where in the soil my life is found.(向地面垂下枝条,在泥土中,我才会真正找到生命存在的意义。)有时候可能我们痛苦到极致才会去沉下心来思考一些人生的话题。这首歌中讲到对着柳树觉得grieve 悲伤,那其实我相信当她感觉到柳树深深扎根在土壤里,努力地去生长的时候,她的内心一定也会触动。有人说,当你真的觉得痛苦不知所措的时候,你去接头看看乞丐,去医院ICU看看那些很多即将离世的人,或许你的思绪会得到一点点的解放。本期主播:小C。
