讀書如交友

散文：讀書如交友 作者：劉墉 　　　讀書就像交朋友，有些書略略翻過即可，是點頭之交；有些書必須精讀細讀，是知心至交；又有些書得再三玩味，十分迷醉，如愛侶。 　　　總之，書不能由別人幫你讀，朋友不能由旁人為你交，隻有自己認識的朋友，一朝重逢，才能有許多驚喜；困境相遇，才能得許多助益。為善不求福報，福報自來；讀書不為功名，功名自至。 ******** 《螢窗小語》 　　　劉墉從事寫作近30年，素以雅致、細膩的文風聞名於世。《讀書如交友》選自《螢窗小語》，是劉墉的成名作，同時也是“影響了我一生的書”（劉墉語）。這是一本心靈散文合集。 　　　劉墉用細膩、睿智的筆觸，記錄日常的點滴感觸和心得。那些蘊含智慧與哲理的小語，教會世人如何麵對喧囂、擺脫困頓，感覺親切而真實。 　　　作品中也充滿了劉墉年輕時的理想主義，劉墉曾表示，一種年紀有一種年紀的狀態和思考方式，這本書就記錄了劉墉年輕時的思想轉變過程。（摘自網絡） 林貝卡 2008 夏 於美國

Tell you what? I even do not remember what I have posted. Yesterday I noticed that I posted the same piece of music twice. lol...When I am in the mood for posting, I just post a bunch.

Oh, 《Anna Karenina》,the novel begins with one of its most quoted lines:

“ Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way. ”

How are you doing? I hope everything goes well with your family.

Have a nice day,

It took me a while to find it finally - That is the only time I don't want you have so many beautiful posts. Wish I could have more time to enjoy each one quiltly...

The full name is "Anna Karenina" by Leo Tolstoy. You have a post about movie and I watched some of it but did not finish that evening...

A good mum should know Daniel, little Tony and Cisco as well... How happy you are!

Enjoy your day,

回複靜謐海灣的評論:

是的，不同的階段讀相同的一本書一篇文章一首詩，聽同一首歌曲等，感受就是不一樣。人生的體驗隨著不斷地成長，不同的經曆，就這樣豐富了，多彩了，厚重了。

記得在國內讀席慕容的《鄉愁》，是在欣賞；如今再讀《鄉愁》，是在感受。

鄉愁
席慕容

故鄉的歌是一枝清遠的笛
總在有月亮的晚上響起
故鄉的麵貌確實一種模糊的悵惘
仿佛霧裏的揮手別離
別離後
鄉愁是一顆沒有年輪的樹
永不老去

By the way, what is the novel 《Anna》 about? Speaking of reading, it reminds me of my kids. During dinner time last evening, I commented on my two girls who like to read whenever they can. Daniel jumped in and said:" Mommy, I have read a lot of books, too. You just did not see me reading." lol...

Have a nice day,

Rebecca

I like 劉墉's articles you shared.

Forgot to tell you, a beautiful lady's picture in your post let me think of Anna, so I took the novel from my book shelf and started reading it again recently.

I read it in Chinese in uni. With so many life experience and story I felt the difference when reading it. It is so enjoyable.

Thank you and enjoy your rest of the week,

I
