My dear parents,
The worst is behind us! That was last night's organ concert and the lecture preceding it. Quite frankly I was somewhat worried about this lecture. Since I am not used to giving long talks in French and the hall is enormous: three thousand people. But to my amazement I discovered that I felt as much at home in French as I do in German, and that it was easier for me to speak loudly and clearly in French than in German! I stood there without a manuscript, and within three minutes. I sensed that I had captured my audience more surely than I had ever done before. I spoke for fifty-five minutes, and next came an organ recital that lasted for one hour. I have never been so successful. When the program ended, they all remained in their seats: I had to go back to my organ and play for another half hour; the audience was sorry to leave it was half-past midnight!
Here, the concerts are announced for 9:15, but at that time there's not a soul in the auditorium; toward 9: 30 the first few people arrive, strolling about in the hall and the lobby, and toward ten o'clock, after three rings of a bell, the people deign to finally take their seats!
On Saturday, a grand concert with organ and orchestra is scheduled in the morning, and I have long rehearsals in the evening, for the organ is very difficult to play since the sound is always delayed. Luckily, I'm well rested, and I am managing to overcome the difficulties. Absolutely everyone addresses me as "cher mare"; the art critics settle down in the auditorium during rehearsals; my portrait is displayed in the music stores. It's such fun.
I am staying with Walter at the premier hotel on the grand square with splendid palm trees. I have a view of the square and the entire city all the way to the big mountains forty minutes away from here; they are as high as the Hohnack. I walk over to them every afternoon; it takes me a total of two hours.
The weather is the same as at home on a lovely June day. The men who were waiting for me at the railroad station roared with laugher when they saw Walter and me in overcoats.
As I am writing to you, the square below my window is filled with a terrible din. The king is arriving in an hour, and the troops are now taking up their positions. Tomorrow evening there will be a grand performance at the theater. I have been invited, but I am not going; I want to rest, for I feel too well to risk my excellent condition.
I will close now, otherwise the letter won't go off tonight. It has to be at the post office by four o'clock. There is no night train to France.
Please forward this letter to the Fhretsmanns and to the Woytts.
Hugs and kisses.
Albert
百善孝为先,妈妈把我们从嗷嗷待哺的婴儿一路培养成品学兼优的优秀学生,经历了多少挫折与坎坷啊!
在流淌着的记忆星河中。总有数不清的星星,它们眨着眼睛。那弯高挂的月亮,勾出了我的思绪。
在五年级的运动会上,女子800米比赛开始点名,我的心怦怦直跳。我正想把衣服脱了,此时,妈妈出现在我面前,接过了我手中的衣服,并且手中拿着一瓶水,她的眼神告诉我要加油。比赛开始了,风在我耳边呼呼直响,我迈着大步伐跟着大部队。进入第二圈时,我的手臂很是酸痛,呼吸也是十分困难,我正想放慢脚步,此时,妈妈的身影出现在我面前,她边领跑边对我说:“加油,继续跑,就差一点了。”我似乎喝了强心剂一般,加快了速度,咬着牙向终点冲了上去。跑完后,妈妈第一个迎了上来,牵着我的手,陪我慢慢走了一圈,递给我一瓶水,我一小口一小口地喝着,我感觉这仿佛是母爱的味道。
我回忆着,回忆着,一颗星星闪闪发光,我继续品味着。
一天深夜。我被一场噩梦惊醒了,在恍惚之中,我看到了妈妈正在把掉在地上的被子捡起来,给我盖上,有从大衣柜中拿来一条毯子盖在了我身上,我顿时觉得身子暖烘烘的。
人们都说,人活在这个世上有两大事,一是行善,而是尽孝。我虽不是什么慈善家,但我有义务要好好孝敬父母。
有句古语说得好:“百善孝为先。”意思是说,孝敬父母是我们人类各种美好品德中最为重要和占第一位的品德。它是做儿女的必做的天经地义的事情。我们中华民族几千年来就一直具有这种尊老敬老的优良传统。古代埋儿奉母,弃官寻母的故事,足以让人们唏嘘不已,而当今捐肾救母,退学为母的故事,更是令我们感动万分。不一样的时代,演绎着相同的主题,那就是孝敬父母,回报父母。
其实,今天,对我们来说,孝敬父母,回报父母,不必像上面所说的那样,要做一番惊天动地的事情。我们只要在平时多注意从身边小事做起,从一点一滴做起,就完全可以尽到我们对父母的孝敬之心。
我很孝敬父母,在家时,我坚持每天帮父母做一件家务,向父母说一句问候的话。当节假日时,我就和父母谈谈心,为父母捶捶背、洗洗脚。因为我妈妈工作的原因,我并没有多少时间和她在一起。但是在父母过生日时,我都会为他们精心准备一份礼物,让他们开心。为了实现父母对我们的期望,在学校好好学习。当父母因工作繁忙时,我就自煮饭,做些家务活,以此来减轻父母的负担,父母生病时,像他们关心我一样,我会关注他们的身体健康,为他们端水送药,嘘寒问暖。当我和父母发生争吵时,我便会做出一些必要的让步,当自己做错事情或顶撞了父母后,我就会主动向他们承认错误道歉。时常会和父母在一起讲个笑话,说说我在学校的状况,让他们对我的学习放心。
我们的父母为了我们,操碎了心,也付出了很多。他们累了,需要一把椅子坐坐;他们渴了,需要一杯清茶解渴;他们的心疲倦了,需要一颗真诚的感恩之心去安慰。我们再也不要觉得,父母为我们所做的一切都是理所应该的;我们更不要对父母的艰辛付出和无限关爱,视而不见,无动于衷,甚至怨气冲天。因为我懂得了父母的需要,所以我现在要行动起来,动一动手,搬一把椅子给父母歇歇,倒一杯水给父母痛饮;动一动口,说一句真诚温暖的话语给父母听听,解除他们的疲劳,驱散他们的心病。孝敬父母原来就这么简单。如此容易做到的`事情,就一定能让我的爸爸妈妈欣慰,高兴和快乐。我又何了而不为呢?
亲情是一个人善心、爱心和良心的综合表现;孝敬父母,尊敬长辈,是做人的本分,是天经地义的美德,也是各种品德形成的前提,因而历来受到人们的称赞。试想,一个人如果连孝敬父母,报答养育之恩都做不到,谁还相信他是个人呢?又有谁愿意和他打交道呢?因此,我们应该用我们的优异成绩,我们的健康成长来孝敬父母,回报父母。
小时侯,我们对父母依附、崇拜。进入青春期后,我们有了自己的思想,开始独立行事,渴望从家长那里拿到“解放证书”,渴望父母像对待大人那样对待我们,甚至挑战父母的权威。而在父母的眼里,我们总是长不大的孩子,没有生活经验,没有丰富的阅历,却有自己的主意。父母责怪我们越来越不服管教,越来越不懂事,而怀念我们小时侯的乖样子。他们对我们的关爱之心没有变,只是要求更加严格,免不了多叮嘱几句,在我们听不进时,就觉得家长唠叨。罗嗦。于是,我们与父母之间就产生了矛盾。
望子成龙。望女成风,是天下父母共同的心愿。我们与父母的冲突,往往基于父母对我们的高期待。严要求。这种在我们看来有些苛求的“严”,反映出父母对于我们的爱。我们要理解。体谅父母的一片苦心。
与父母发生冲突,如果以强硬的态度顶撞,以粗暴的举止反抗,或者对他们不理不睬。冷淡相对,或者由对某事的分歧迁移到对父母本人的恶感,甚至采用极端的办法来处理,都是错误的,会造成极大的危害。
在家中,父母与我们之间容易产生矛盾和代沟,对此不能否认,不能漠视,但也不能夸大。积极的做法是从中架起沟通的桥梁。沟通是双方的事。我们做子女的,要走近父母,亲近父母,努力跨越代沟,与父母携手同行。
在家庭交往中,与父母不必太计较。即使父母错了,也要多原谅,不要非与父母争个高低上下。有时即使争赢了,也不一定给自己带来快乐,给家庭带来幸福;我们认了错,也不会丢面子了,反而让我们丢掉包袱,得到更多的爱和快乐。
