倾听那涛声

蔡永祥

  ①听涛山,是湘西凤凰古城内的一座小山,依江而立,佳木葱茏,兰蕙芬芳,山泉淙淙。1992年5月10日,这座山显得格外庄严肃穆。沈从文先生在北京病逝四周年后,由夫人张兆和将骨灰捧回家乡,来此安葬。这颗生于斯爱于斯的灵魂,终于枕着涛声在这里永远安息。

  ②沱江的水,进入凤凰城时,绕了个圈子,拐了个弯,江水由此变得缓慢。它清清凌凌、清亮可人,流动起来也是一副大家闺秀的样子,温温柔柔、不紧不慢,几乎听不到涛声。江水流着流着,就到了跳岩处。水一流到跳岩这里,就拥挤起来,吼叫起来,显得异常热闹。白色的浪花高高飞舞,隆隆的涛声响彻云天。仿佛这涛声,就是专门让沈老听的,自从沈老长眠于此,这涛声仿佛就带着感情了。是啊,沱江甘甜的江水,哺育了沈老,沱江不息的涛声,一直在沈老的梦里啊!沈老在《心与物游》的开头这样说:“我的生活与思想皆从孤独得来,而这点孤独与水不能分开。”

  ③二十年代就蜚声文坛的沈从文先生,1902年12月28日,出生在风凰古城中营街的一座典型的南方古四合院里。在沱江边,他度过了充满传奇色彩的童年。他在沱江连绵不息的涛声里,兴味盎然地习读着凤凰城内外那本由自然和人事写成的社会大书,那无数平凡而新鲜的事物,总是牵动着他好奇的目光。沈从文先生默默观察着小城镇的众生百态,也在静默中明白了很多事情。这给他以后的文学道路奠定了基础。

  ④1924年沈从文先生开始文学创作,作品主要以湘西生活为题材,通过描写湘西人原始、自然的生命形式,赞美人性美。语言格调朴实传神,句式简洁峭拔,具有浓郁的地方色彩,凸现出乡村人性特有的风韵与神采,充满了对人生的隐忧和对生命的哲学思考,给人教益和启示。

  ⑤沈从文先生魂归凤凰,他的骨灰一半撒入沱江之中,一半安葬在听涛山上。沈老墓地前临清澈亮丽的沱江,背靠风景秀丽的听涛山,四季鸟语花香、风光如画。这是一座别具一格的坟茔,没有凸起的坟土,没有华丽的装饰,没有人工雕刻的痕迹,一块自墓穴后凿取来的不规则的天然五色巨石肃然矗立,成为沈老先生坟墓的独特标志。正面刻有沈老富有哲学内涵的手迹:“照我思索,能理解‘我’;照我思索,可认识人。”这是真性情的沈从文先生晚年对人生的彻悟。用他儿子沈龙朱的话说:“我觉得父亲在晚年的时候有一种对世事的洞彻,他已经能超越他的际遇看人看事了。”背面刻有沈从文妻妹、美国耶鲁大学教授张充和先生撰书的挽联:“不折不从,星斗其文;亦慈亦让,赤子其人。”蕴涵“从文让人”之意,又是沈老一生的真实写照。读其文、听其言、观其行,沈老之所以能长久地受到人们的敬仰,得到众多文人骚客的祭拜,不能不引人深思。一位中国文坛上的大师,生前没有显赫的地位,死后在自己喜爱的听涛山上也仅仅占了这么小小的一个地方,真是与众不同、“亦慈亦让”的沈从文!

  ⑥山是归根山,水是忘情水,石是三生石[注],倦游归来的沈先生,在这儿画上了他人生的句号。“一个士兵要不战死沙场,便是回到故乡”,出生在凤凰的著名国画大师黄永玉这样写道。

  ⑦2007年5月20日,沈老的夫人张兆和女士的骨灰也被亲人捧着从北京移居听涛山。

  ⑧暮色中,沱江的水面上飘起了高高的一层白雾,如若仙境一般。涛声也显得格外清晰、委婉,宛若不加修饰的苗家山歌,动人心魄。旁边的听涛山更加寂静,仿佛它也知道,有一对思乡的人儿,正在静静地倾听,倾听……

[注]三生石,传说中立在奈何桥边的一块大石头,能照出人前世的模样。

The day    I was 3 years old       the beginning of my dream. On that day, after seeing the Capital Dancing Company performance, I    , “Mama, when I grow up, I’m going to be one of those.”
As I grow older, my    in the world of dance    changed, but that little girl’s dream of someday becoming a    in the company never left me. In 2005, aged 18, I received the phone making that dream come true: I became a member of the company.
When I looked        on that day now, I believe I stayed in a state of       disbelief until I was asked to rehearsal (排练). Though I was entirely excited with the offer, it did not come without      . Through the strict and hard rehearsal, I found it important to     myself to learning the skills fast with every bit of concentration(注意力集中). It is the extreme        to detail (细节) and stress on practice that help us      . Then comes a      show schedule of up to five performances a day, I found a new      of the words “HARD WORK”. The practice pushed me forward than I thought      . I learnt to make each performance better than the last. Besides, the teachers not only teach us skills but help us a lot in daily life when we are       in trouble.
Today, as a member and dance captain in the unbelievable company, I see a       that has encouraged not only       little girls but a wonderful company that       to develop and grow and encourage people every day to         their dreams.
