现代人必上的10堂心灵修炼课
在现实生活中,并不是所有人的灵魂都可以自由的飞翔。如果一个人仅仅追求奢华的生活,如美味佳肴、锦衣华服、别墅豪宅等等,那么他拥有再多的金钱、再高的地位、再大的权力,其灵魂也只能匍匐而行。如果一个人追求的是德高望重、事业有成、家庭幸福、奉献社会,那么他的灵魂会在不断地自我实现中直立行走。如果一个人拥有崇高的理想、坚定的信仰、执著的追求、睿智的思想和持久的行动力,那么他的灵魂就会在一次次自我挑战、自我超越中升华,最终把不可能变为可能。Ethiopia Boy
Chris Beckett grew up in 1960s Ethiopia, a country he describes as a 'barefoot empire, home of black-maned lions… old priests decked out like butterflies and blazing young singers of Ethio-jazz'. Ethiopia Boy plunges the reader into praise poems that sing and boast and glory in the colours and textures of this extraordinary country. Here is a world of feasting on spicy kikwot and of famine sucking the water from rivers, of lion buses and a prayer child, where Earth sings greetings to the feet that walk on her. Haunted by the memory of his friend Abebe, the cook's son, Beckett celebrates and laments a lost boyhood in poems of vivid immediacy.
