Play the Rhythms of Life by Heart　让心为生命伴奏
◎ Emy
What sounds or impressions are you making on the people around you? Think about it. Your
words, phrases, even your message may soon be forgotten but believe me, good or bad, your melody
lingers.
An odd choice of phrase? Not really. The dictionary defines “melody” as a succession of sounds,
and what is life other than the combining and blending of a succession of movements and sounds.
Just as a musical composition affects the moods and emotions of people who hear it, so too does
the way you live your life.
Think of your life as a blank sheet of manuscript paper.
Only the rhythm is there — it is up to you to create the harmony.
Naturally you will want your composition to be a success, “a chart buster” even a symphony —
something to be remembered with pleasure.
So where to begin?
You must begin with yourself.
Have the right attitude, enjoy life—and most importantly, be optimistic about the future.
Be genuinely interested in other people. Make a conscience effort to bring peace and happiness
into other people’s lives.
Avoid situations that generate excessive ambition, envy, anger and pride. They are all enemies
of peace and will play havoc1 with your harmony.
It has been said that if these emotions or feelings were banished2, the world would live in
perpetual peace. Well, to banish3 them from the world is probably aiming a bit high but it shouldn’t be
too difficult to rid them from your own life.
Develop traits such as tact4, diplomacy5, compassion6 perceptiveness7 and sensitivity. These
attributes are invaluable8 in enhancing not only your own life but the lives of those around you.
Everything you do has an effect on those around you. The way you move, whether you smile or
frown. You are capable of making someone’s day bright or miserable9.
Take time to listen to other people. If there are too many discords10 and not enough harmony in
their lives, encourage them to have a brighter outlook.
Throughout the world most people are striving for peace.
From the family unit seated around the dinner table to world leaders at the conference table, the
name of the game is the pursuit of peace.
So, let us all play our part in composing the rhythm of life by consciously choosing peace and
harmony in our daily lives to create a harmonious11 universe.
周围的人对你的评价和印象是怎样的？考虑一下。你们说过的话语、发过的信息可能很
快就会忘记，但是相信我，无论是好是坏，都是你自己演奏的旋律。
说些好听的话？不全部是这样。“悦耳”指的是声音动听，把生活中一连串好的言行相结
合，才是对这个词语最好的解释。
生活中，你的言行就像交响乐一样影响着你身边的人。
想象你的生命就像一张白纸。
你生活的曲调——这就得由你自己来创造美妙。
很自然地，你想让自己的作曲获得成功，登上“排行榜榜首”，甚至演奏出交响乐——回
忆的时候充满快乐。
所以从哪里开始呢？
必须从自己开始。
要树立正确的心态，热爱生活——最重要的是要对未来保持乐观。
真诚地对待别人。让自己的爱心给别人带来和平与快乐。
不要有过多的野心、嫉妒、愤怒和骄傲的情绪。这些是破坏你和别人和谐共处的敌人。
有人说，如果人类能消除这些情绪，世界就会永享太平。当然这个目标也许有点偏高，
但作为个人来讲，将这些情绪驱逐出你的生命，不会太难。
让自己变得更机敏、灵活、感性和敏感。这些特质不但会使你的生活变得更好，还会促
进你身边的人的生活。
你所做的一切都能从身边人的反应中折射出来。你处世的方法，喜笑颜开或怒发冲冠。
这些都会影响到身边的人是开心还是难过。
多花时间去倾听。如果他们的生活里有很多矛盾和别扭，你可以鼓励他们用乐观的态度
去面对。
在世界上大多数人都在为和平而努力奋斗。
无论是围坐在饭桌前的家人，还是围坐在会议桌前的国家领导者，他们的目的都是一样
的——追求和平。
所以，让我们发挥自己的作用，选择和平与和谐，共谱生命的乐章，营造一个和谐的世
界。
