三 : 2013年10月17日星期四

以前心情不好的时候，我喜欢去空旷的田野走走，一个人不疾不徐的走在田野的寂静和淡然里，不快乐的心情会被蔚蓝色的天空，昂首挺立的树，冷而缓缓地的风所稀释所淡化，有时候我们常常抱怨我们的心情没有人关注，我们的美丽没有人欣赏，我们的痛苦没有人劝慰，其实我们看看沟渠旁那些五彩斑斓的野花，开的多么绚丽多姿，有几个人可以驻足多看一眼，我们看看田野里那些郁郁葱葱的树，有几个人知道它们在暴风雨的摧残下努力的生长着，还有天空下变幻莫测的云，有谁知道它们变化的美丽，疾飞的鸟儿有谁知道它们飞往何处，寒冷的夜晚它们又将露宿何处，大自然里许多东西都是这样，如同默默无闻的季节一样不停的变化着自己的美丽和凄恻，没有人去关注它们的一切。

天高云淡，风卷云舒，九月的天空是一副明丽淡雅的画卷，九月的田野是一种空旷的恬静和一点点麦芽的浅绿。
