大二總結

二上   void,   Delightful  

I   limitlessly,   relentlessly   play   down,   sinking   into   a   state   where   I   consciously   drag   myself   down   to   the   level   that   I'm   not   supposed   to   be,   not   my   competency   naturally   sits   and   can   perform   the   best,   just   like   the   mid-late   high   school   year.   Nevertheless,   I'm   happy   and   feel   like   I've   never   been   so   enriched   with   hopefulness   and   joy   before.   I   know   that   I'm   probably,   from   the   appearance,   not   as   competent,   masterly,   proficient,   adroit,   and   accomplished   as   before,   but   I'm   happier   and   more   nerveless.   I'm   more   relaxed,   saggy,   and   not   caring   about   literally   anything.   Sometimes   I   think   I   take   myself   too   easy,   but   sometimes   I   think   I   deserve   it   all,   and   it's   a   gift   sent   from   God   that   tells   me   to   rest,   not   to   persist   in   something   too   much.   It's   the   unbounded   downgrade   of   a   standard),   possessing   the   mood   of   being   on   vacation.   Is   that   a   good   thing?   Seeing   myself   dwindling   with   level   falling   downward   but   feeling   unguilty,   even   delightful,   simply   not   trying   to   strive   my   best   and   emit   my   whole   effort,   but   feeling   no   remorse   or   regret   while   thinking   it's   all   just   a   phase,   "nothing   lasts   forever   and   it   doesn't   matter".   Yes,   the   world   and   the   environment   where   I'm   in   don't   necessarily   need   all   the   capabilities   that   I   have   and   the   things   I   cared   about   before.   But   it's   also   okay   to,   anyway,   use   it   and   present   it.   But   I   don't,   not   because   I   cannot   do   it.   It's   totally   not   that   I   lose   the   ability   to   do   those;   it's   just   that   I   don't   want   to.   Somehow   my   conception   of   facing   things   in   every   aspect   of   life   changes,   and   I   may   not   hold   on   to   the   specific   things   that   I   used   to   emphasize   before,   but   it   eventually   shapes   a   behavioral   circumstance   and   embodiment   of   laziness,   shiftlessness,   and   unenlightenedness.

Still   keep   self-convincing   that   I   take   it   to   the   next   level,   where   ease   and   a   simple   way   of   thinking,   expressing,   and   caring   are   better   than   putting   100%   of   your   effort   into   everything   that   you   want   to   perform   well   and   achieving   certain   goals   that   actually   have   nothing   to   do   with   your   ultimate   result.   I   just   got   a   glimpse   of   awareness   that   transferring   my   mind   and   letting   things   go   are   not   the   smartest   way   to   handle   it   with   an   excellent   strike,   but   the   healthiest   and   naturalest.

It's   not   that   I   have   become   lazier   and   lazier;   neither   can   I   do   those   things.   It's   hard   to   discover   that   there's   an   intangible   force   that   turns   me   into   thinking   that   I   do   not   need   to   do   those   things.   I'm   not   making   excuses;   I   know   where   I   am   going   and   how.

Days   rapidly   and   unconsciously   passed;   another   shortcut   to   delightfulness,   carefreeness,   and   happiness   is   there,   paving   the   way   in   front   of   me.   It   has   no   difficulty   to   just   step   into   the   path   and   start   walking   towards   that   road   end.   But   I'm   still   wandering,   searching   for   something   else,   while   the   goal   that   I   was   supposed   to   choose   is   right   here,   and   I   just   need   to   keep   walking   straight.   I   make   it   hard,   complicating   the   whole   thing.   There   is   never   a   sense   of   contentment   inside   my   heart,   which   at   least   it   is   seemingly,   while   the   truth   is   that   I   don't   want   to   just   face   it   and   confess   that   I'm   happy   in   order   to   continue   staying   cool   and   "relevant".   Is   this   the   true   me?   When   can   I   "release"   myself   and   admit   how   I   feel   in   the   moment,   in   my   deepest   heart?   I'm   running   into   ecstasy.

It's   another   ennui.   I   skip   and   give   up   some   (maybe   a   lot)   to   let   myself   be   freer,   easier,   happier   and   simpler.   But   this   inevitably   led   to   boredom   and   vanity,   which,   I   think   is   the   side   effect   of   trying   to   be   easier   and   happier   by   throwing   something   to   do   away.

Couldn't   find   any   sense   of   belonging   here,   but   I've   gotten   used   to   it.   Countless   times   have   I   barged   into   a   space   where   nothing   I   can   relate   to,   but   somehow,   in   the   end,   I   can,   anyway,   adapt   to   it   and   perform   decently   well   (from   my   perspective).   I   just   got   the   ability   to   find   my   own   peace   by   persuading   myself   that   everyone   is   an   individual   and   goes   everywhere   on   our   own   in   life,   despite   the   circumstance   that   something   imperative   isn't   going   very   well.   What   suddenly   strikes   my   mind   is   that   I   realize   I   often   focus   and   persist   on   something   a   little   bit   too   much   (even   though   I   think   I'm   laid-back   and   relaxed),   which   probably   leads   to   my   "unique"   stubbornness   and   obstinate   nature.

Laziness   and   idleness   keep   flowing   in   my   mind,   and   they   cannot   be   ousted.   Something   wild   stimulated   my   desire   to   run   free   and   not   care   about   anything,   while   at   the   same   time,   another   me   shouted   and   said   "Put   your   effort   in   and   never   relax".   I'm   simply   in   a   dilemma.   And   whatever   I   choose   to   act   like,   I   regret   afterwards.   A   greedy   mind   that   never   gets   content.

我發現整個階段過程我一直在扮演的是典型中的不典型,在體制內順從服膺指示命令,甚至表現得頗出色、偶而突出的優秀,本來可以一直這樣下去「演得好好的」,但心內卻有出走、自由、逃脫、乖離、脫韁、突破、顛覆、推翻的渴望與企求,以至於心中有兩個相反的力量不斷強力的拉扯、羈絆、衝突、矛盾。

我將自己無限下修,自我要求的標準調低,適應於類舒適圈中的快意,吃老本的同時自我說服是在力求「精」、「質」而不是一味求「量」、「多」,接著就發現原來剛好達到標準線之上或擦邊入該領域的標準,是這麼簡單、可以多出許多時間的,原來以前我所處的場域之規定要求還比較多、繁複、不可能「輕易」做到。原來我現在處於的狀態,才是與我同齡的大家應有的、正常的,我以前活得太困難了。經常,人生的路,我倒著走。
