珍惜愤怒         

毕淑敏

小时候看电影《虎门销烟》中的英雄林则徐在官邸里贴了一条幅:“制怒”。由此知道怒是一种凶恶丑陋的东西,需要时时去制服它。

长大后当了医生,更视怒为健康的大敌。师传我,我授人:怒而伤肝,怒较之烟酒对人为害更烈。人怒时,可使心跳加快,血压升高,瞳孔放大,寒毛竖紧……一如人们猝然间遇到老虎时反应。

怒与长寿,好象是一架跷跷板的两端,非此即彼。人们渴望健康,人们于是憎恶愤怒。

我愿以我生命的 一部分为代价,换取永远珍惜愤怒的权利。

愤怒是人的正常情感之一,没有愤怒的人生,是一种残缺。当你的尊严被践踏,当你的信仰被玷污,当你的家园被侵占,当你的亲人被残害,你难道不滋生出火焰一样的愤怒吗

当你面对丑恶,面对污秽,面对人类品质中最阴暗的角落,面对黑夜里横行的鬼魅,你难道能压抑住喷薄而出的愤怒吗?

愤怒是我们生活中的盐。当高度的物质文明像软绵绵的糖一样簇拥着我们的时候,现代人的意志像被泡酸了的牙一般软弱。小悲小喜缠绕着我们,我们便有了太多的忧郁。城市人的意志脱了钙,越来越少倒拔杨柳强硬似铁怒目金刚式的愤怒,越来越少幽深似海似水波不兴却蕴育极大张力的愤怒。

没有愤怒的生活是一种悲哀。犹如跳跃的麋鹿丧失了迅速奔跑的能力,犹如敏捷的灵猫被剪掉胡须,随后再戒掉属于正常人的所有情感之后,人就在活着的时候走向了永恒——那就是死亡。

我常常冷静地观察他人的愤怒,我常常无情地剖析自己的愤怒,愤怒给我最深沉的感受是真实,它赤裸而新鲜,仿佛那颗勃然跳动的心脏。

喜可以伪装,愁可以伪装,快乐可以加以粉饰,孤独忧郁能够掺进水分,惟有愤怒是十足成色的赤金。它是石与铁撞击一瞬痛苦的火花,是以人的生命力为代价锻造出的双刃利剑。

喜更像一种获得,一种他人的馈赠。愁则是一枚独自咀嚼的青橄榄,枯涩之外别有滋味。惟有愤怒,那是不计后果不顾代价无所顾忌的坦荡的付出。在你极度愤怒的刹那,犹如裂空而出横无际涯的闪电,赤裸裸地裸露了你最隐秘的内心。于是,你想认识一个人,你就去看他的愤怒吧!

愤怒出诗人,愤怒也出统帅,出伟人,出大师,愤怒驱动我们平平常常的人做出辉煌的业绩。只要不丧失理智,愤怒便充满活力。

愤怒是制不服的,犹如那些最优秀的野马,迄今没有任何骑手可以驾驭它们。愤怒是人生命运之曲抑扬起伏的高亢音符。

珍惜愤怒吧!愤怒可以使我们年轻。纵使在愤怒中猝然倒下,也是一种生命的美。
