對照著你的生命與所感受過的辛苦;哽咽卻佩服。我記得你說過,你是一個辛苦的人,跟著你會很辛苦;然而,這卻是你的生活方式,你從來沒有想要改變過。比較起你,你可能會覺得我是活在溫室中的花朵,說著大道理,只是因為不明白別人的辛苦。
然而,我的生活態度是坦白卻堅忍。活得坦白並不容易,尤其是生在充滿謊言與勾心鬥角的環境中。每天面對著當你媽咪得勢時,醫事同仁們拍馬屁的嘴臉;當你媽咪失去官位時,大家不屑多談一句的表情。在這樣的環境中,我成長、茁壯;我知道如何討好任何一個想要討好的人,我知道什麼樣的謊言或虛偽叫做客套,我明白大家為了官位互相攻防的好笑畫面。因此,打從心中懷疑人性的真誠,也更因如此,坦白是我給予一個人價值標籤上的重要依據;不斷反覆驗證一個人的人格與表現,變成我永遠在和人互動時,身體中不自主會出現的反射。自己活得坦白不難,要求別人跟著坦白卻不容易;有多少人願意放下偽裝,跟你坦然,互掀底牌;所以,每當這樣的人出現,我總是珍惜不已。
然而,堅忍這個態度,卻不是這麼容易;它經過了許多的痛苦後,學著克服這樣的障礙,才算堅忍。學著走最難走的路變成了一種修行,有一陣子,我有考慮過當個修女;學著當別人都說我過得辛苦時,把它變成讓別人都無法體會的甘甜。寫作,也是這樣開始的;想記錄著一些註定別人都不看好的狀態,試著用堅忍的態度,學習如何活過來。無尾港是這樣,一年的助理工作是這樣,博士班是這樣,每段無奈的緣份也是這樣。認真看完我論文的人,沒有稱讚這是項了不起的創舉,反而以「辛苦」的過程來描述這個論文。我卻以此為樂,感謝我和無尾港有了這樣的緣份,感謝盧老師能夠讓我有這樣的空間經歷辛苦,然後學到如何更加堅忍。
最近看了「How to get a PhD」,為我的未來預做準備。看著這本書,我看到了一些自己仍要加強的缺點,也發現了老師在指導學生上的障礙;也許有一天我也找老師談談。也因為這本書,我決定開始寫下,這幾年的摸索,希望能夠留給有緣份的學弟妹們,讓他們能在進入碩士班時,有一些分享與思考。
