这副嘴脸的由来

有两种书我读的很慢,一种是书很难读,太费劲,只能慢慢读,可能永远也读不完;另一种书是写的太好,太吸引我,怕被读完就没有了,所以仔仔细细,一句一句地读,有时侯还摘抄几句.我现在得到的一本书就是后一种,不舍得读完.

“The Mindful path through shyness.” By Steve Flowers.

下面是昨晚读的时候做的摘抄:

Thoughts arise.

Thoughts give rise to emotions.

Emotions give rise to moods.

Moods harden into personality.

Personality hardens into habits of behavior.

Habits of behavior gradually shape the body.

Sometimes their faces tell a vivid story of the mental and emotional states that have dominated their lifes. Worry lines can reveal a lifetime of anxiety, while crow’s-feet and other smile wrinkles can reveal a lifetime of laughter.

以上几句的大意是:

思想自动出现.

思想的出现引起情感.

情感的出现引起情绪.

情绪融入性格.

性格融入行为习惯.

行为习惯塑造身体.

所以身体可以变成一个人成长历史的表达.看一看有年纪人的脸,这些脸在生动地讲述人一生中主要的精神历程.一些愁苦的线条展示了一生的焦虑;而那些因微笑而引起的线条则展示了一生的欢笑.
