青春不是年華,而是心態(tài);青春不是粉面、紅唇、柔膝,而是堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的意志,恢弘的想象,炙熱的戀情;青春是生命深處的自在涌流。
青春氣貫長虹,勇銳蓋過怯弱,迸取壓倒茍安。如此銳氣,二十后生而有之,六旬男子則更多見,年歲有加,并非垂老,理想丟棄,方是暮年、
歲月悠悠,衰微只及肌膚;熱忱拋卻,頹廢必致靈魂、憂慮、惶恐、喪失自信,定使靈魂扭曲,意氣如灰。
無論年屆花甲,抑或芳齡,心中皆有生命之歡樂,好奇之沖動,孩童般天真久盛不衰。
你我心中都有一架天線,只要你從天上、人間接受美好,希望、歡樂、勇氣和力量的信號,你就會青春永駐,風(fēng)華常存。
一旦天線墜下,銳氣便被冰雪覆蓋,玩世不恭、自暴自棄油然而生,即使年方二十,實(shí)則垂垂老矣;然而只要豎起天線,捕捉樂觀信號,即使八十高齡,行將告別塵寰,你也會覺得年輕依舊,希望永存。
