痛苦的背面。从小学到中学,她一直是班干部,三好学生,高中毕业,她以优异的成绩考入一所重点大学,担任系学生会干部,大三时还入了党。大学最后一年,她参加全市应届毕业生洽谈会,与北京一家很有名的企业达成协议,接收她毕业后去工作。她满怀心喜,只等着七月份一毕业就去北京工作。可是,就在毕业前一个月,她经不住好友的再三请求,答应替她去参加英语考试。结果,那次替考被同学发现举报了。当时,学校刚换了一位新校长,正严抓校风,校纪,虽然系里老师再三为她说情开脱,最后她还是被处以开除学籍,勒令退学,并给以开除党籍,留党查看一年的处分。这样的结果,不仅是她本人,连学校的老师,同学都有些不忍接受。那段日子,她的痛苦,可想而知。家人怕她想不开自杀,请假轮流陪着她。男友闻讯从外地赶回来看她。男友非常爱她,知道她出事后,他也非常难过,痛苦。看到她现在这个样子,更令他担忧。他不知道用什么办法,才能安慰她,化解她心中的痛苦。一连三天,她不吃不喝,蒙头躺在床上。家人的安慰,劝解,她一句也听不进。到了晚上,男友过来,揭开她蒙在身上和脸上的被子,把一张写满了字的纸放到她眼前,说:我知道你现在非常痛苦,你也完全有理由痛苦,即使你有100个痛苦也不过份。你看,这张纸写的全是痛苦,有100个。我们打个赌,你把它一点点撕成碎片,我保证在10分钟内把它拼好。她看了看,接过来,一下一下,撕成碎片,扔在地上。不一会儿,地下就堆满了碎纸片。男友弯下身,一一拣拣起来,坐在一旁的写字台上,一块一块的拼。果然,用了不到10分钟,就拼好了。她看着那些刚刚被自己撕成碎片,现在竟又粘贴在一起的痛苦,十分惊讶,终于开口,说了第一句话:你是怎么拼好的?很简单。你看,男友把纸翻过来,只见纸的背面用红色彩笔写着一个硕大的快乐,两个字占满了一张纸。我在它的背面写下快乐两个大字,让它充满整个张纸。拼的时候翻过来,按照快乐的笔画拼,这样,一会儿就把它拼好了。亲爱的,无论何时,你要记住,痛苦的背面,就是快乐!中国的大学你读不了,可是,全世界,不止中国有大学呀!你不是一直想去美国留学吗?其实我也非常想去。我们做个比赛好吗?我们俩一起报考托福,一起申请去美国读书,看谁先通过?她已是泪流满面,扑进男友的怀抱,用力点点头。悟:痛苦是一个深渊,如果不能控制,只能是越陷越深。我们应该学会快乐,快乐是战胜自己的前提。
