Faith輕鬆電臺:NO.53 譜寫生命的樂章

　NO.53 Write Your Own Life
>>Faith輕鬆英語電臺50-53期下載(mp3+文本)
Suppose someone gave you a pen - a sealed, solid-colored pen.

You couldn't see how much ink it had. It might run dry after the first few tentative words or last just long enough to create a masterpiece (or several) that would last forever and make a difference in the scheme of things. You don't know before you begin.

Under the rules of the game, you really never know. You have to take a chance! Actually, no rule of the game states you must do anything. Instead of picking up and using the pen, you could leave it on a shelf or in a drawer where it will dry up, unused.

But if you do decide to use it, what would you do with it? How would you play the game?

Would you plan and plan before you ever wrote a word? Would your plans be so extensive that you never even got to the writing?

Or would you take the pen in hand, plunge right in and just do it, struggling to keep up with the twists and turns of the torrents of words that take you where they take you?

Would you write cautiously and carefully, as if the pen might run dry the next moment, or would you pretend or believe (or pretend to believe) that the pen will write forever and proceed accordingly?

　NO.53 譜寫生命的樂章

假如有人送你一支筆，一支不可拆卸的單色鋼筆.

裡面究竟有多少墨水看不出。或許在你試探性地寫上幾個字後它就會枯乾，或許足夠用來創作一部影響深遠的不朽巨著(或是幾部)。而這些，在動筆前，都是無法得知的。

在這個遊戲規則下，你真的永遠不會預知結果。你只能去碰運氣！事實上，這個遊戲裡沒有規則指定你必須要做什么。相反，你甚至可以根本不去動用這支筆，把它扔在書架上或是抽屜裡讓它的墨水乾枯。

但是，如果你決定要用它的話，你會用它來做什么呢？你將怎樣來進行這個遊戲呢?

你會不寫一個字，老是計劃來計劃去嗎？你會不會由於計劃過於宏大而來不及動筆呢?

或者你只是手裡拿著筆，一頭扎進去寫，不停地寫，艱難地隨著文字洶湧的浪濤而隨波逐流？

你會小心謹慎的寫字，好象這支筆在下一個時刻就可能會幹枯；還是裝做或相信這支筆能夠永遠寫下去而信手寫來呢？
