#Night听心电图
她是一名全方位的优秀生，全副心思都放在自己的前途；半工读、不拍拖、朋友也以稀为贵。她将自己的未来规划好，专研国际法律，考获硕士学位，雄心勃勃地打算在法律界大展拳脚，还搬到纽约，为自己倾心的人权法律事业铺路。但正式步入社会，见了20几份相关领域的工作，始终进不了理想行业的大门。现在的工作，是几近文书的无聊工作。看着当前的一切都在流逝，青春在流逝、时间在流逝——她一直以来什么都做对了，却换不来自己的理想。
她做错了什么？留言里一名曾与她有相似挣扎的网友对她说：”请你不要勉强，坦然面对，放开执着，大方接受生活里其他机会，你才会发现自己的热忱。“ 这名专研考古博物的博士，在离开象牙塔后也跟她一样，倾心于自己博士专研的领域；可是一切不尽人意。生活越过越不开心。当终于决定不再执着，却意外发现自己的另一嗜好也可以是让她非常快乐的专业。她如今是一名驯狗师，是自己公司的老板。即使对于研究领域的热忱虽然还在，但生命不是只有一个理想模式。
生命里能够让你快乐的，不仅仅是实践你梦寐以求的理想；而是相信你能够在每一种生活中找到自己的快乐。为这一种快乐努力，就是你所需要的热忱。
梦想不必伟大，心跳必须炙热。
“I was at an anthropology field school in Guatemala. I was twenty-two. And I was having a crisis. I had no idea what I wanted to do after college. I remember sitting at a café with my favorite professor, and he told me: ‘If you were my daughter, I’d tell you to go into law. From there you can work on anything: healthcare, policy, human rights.’ So when I returned home, I began to study for the LSAT. I spent four years getting my Master’s in International Law, with a concentration in human rights and environmental justice. Then last year I moved to New York to pursue a job in my chosen field. But that’s not exactly what happened. I’ve arranged meetings with twenty-five different attorneys to ‘better understand the field.’ And I’m always hoping to say the right words to catch their attention. It’s poor form to say: ‘I need a job.’ But at the end of every meeting, I always ask: ‘Do you know any opportunities that I should be pursuing?’ And the answer is always ‘no.’ I do have a job right now, and I work hard at it, but it’s mainly reviewing records and writing letters. It’s not the path I wanted to be on. And the longer you work in another field, the harder it can be to transition. I’ve always wanted to make an impact. Ruth Bader Ginsburg is my idol. And I worked hard on this. I studied my ass off, I was valedictorian, I got into a great school, and got great scholarship money. I’ve had a job since I was sixteen. I focused on two or three friends. I didn’t date. This was supposed to be my thing. And now it’s not working out. I’ll never be in my twenties again. Or living in New York. But I’m having a hard time enjoying it because I’m so focused on this one path that’s not opening up.”
