【话题】人生感悟
I, together with my neighbor, arrived in Mali, West Africa, to visit her child, Mary, who was volunteering there. That was a poor area and people lived in mud huts without modern conveniences. However, the villagers appeared content. I had expected we would spend our time helping the poor villagers — wed brought many soccer balls, pens, and inexpensive watches — believing that somehow we could improve the villagers' lives. Instead, they were teaching us that having less meant less to worry about and more time and energy for each other. These wonderful people of a different faith taught me an important lesson. And I felt honored and appreciated living here-the opposite of what I'd felt nine months earlier when I'd felt pressured to resign from my job.
For twelve years I'd worked at the hospital. One day they told me I was no longer needed. I understood that it was a cost-cutting move to replace me with someone with less experience and a lower salary. But my understanding didn't remove the pain of feeling useless.
When I was sad and worried about my future, a fellow health educator at another hospital said to me, "I've just learned the most helpful tool," she said. "No matter what the situation is, there is an opposite, a benefit. Our typical response is to focus on the losses of jobs, marriage, home, or even health. Instead, the speaker told us to concentrate on finding what we gained with our loss.”
At first, I resisted her advice and didn't care about "opposites". I forgot my dream to travel around the world in a trailer(房车) and forgot everything I wished to do when I was busy. I only wanted my job back. I missed my office, my coworkers, the routine. I missed the meaningful challenges of organizing health education classes for sick people. But as time passed, I grew tired of my sorrow and loneliness. Maybe I should try my friend's advice and seek some opposites.
Para.1 The opposite of loneliness would be friendship, so I called a kind-hearted neighbor.
Para.2 These activities enriched my life, but the trip to Africa changed my life completely.
