今天这篇续写来自读者hoshi的投稿,续写来源为24年内蒙古赤峰联考。
今天如约和大家分享。
这则故事讲述了一个人在与朋友劳尔外出就餐时,过于专注于拍摄食物和记录生活来分享在社交媒体上,导致对朋友的陪伴产生了一定的疏远。尽管获得了许多点赞让她感到快乐,但在回家后,她开始反思这种做法是否真的让自己幸福。
其实我也是一个很喜欢拍照的人,特别是自然景观。
但是,在某些时候,我会刻意把手机收起来,把自己的五感释放出去,尽可能去记忆和感受当下的所有。直到兴之所至,拿出手机把最让我感动的那一个瞬间留下来。这些照片,我极少分享在任何社交媒体上,但每次看到,带给我的感动却是饱满的。
就比如这张在里奇蒙公园拍的照片,平平无奇,却记录了我在那一刻感到的空旷,自由和喜悦。
这一次我的标题选择为 捕捉瞬间 or 活在当下。
但我并不认为这两者是对立的,只是我们需要把握两者之间的平衡,留下真正珍贵的瞬间,也要学会享受当下。
enjoy your read!
下面是续写题目
The waiter carefully placed our food on the table. "Enjoy your meal. Let me know if you need anything," he said with a polite smile as he walked off to serve the other guests in the restaurant.
Raul lifted his fork to begin eating before I interrupted him, "Wait, can I take a picture for my blog?"
He sighed, "Go ahead." I took out my cell phone and took the picture. Then, I spent the next thirty seconds deciding on how to make a perfect post.
By the time our ice cream dessert came around, I was getting ready to take my fifth picture of the night. Raul rolled his eyes. I quickly had a shot of the dessert before asking him, "Sorry, am I bothering you by taking pictures?"
"I'm not going to lie. It's a little annoying," he said hesitantly. "But it's okay. I want you to do what makes you happy. "
I put away the phone, a little bit embarrassed, and decided to just enjoy our dinner. While we conversed over dessert, his statement lingered(逗留)in the back of my mind. It wasn't until I reached home that I really thought over the issue. Did taking pictures of my life to show someone whom I barely spoke to make me happy? Well, there was definitely that indescribable feeling I felt when my post gained over twenty likes. It felt good; it felt like I won. But, what was the prize?
I looked through the stream of photos that I had posted of Raul and me. Most were of our time spent at fine restaurants or the latest attractions near our city, and the brand name gifts we bought each other on holidays. I clicked on the profiles of other people I knew and noticed a similar trend.
Well, when my post gained over twenty likes, it felt good. But does it really matter?
Para 1: I called Raul that night.
Para 2: “How about doing something meaningful for at least the next year?” I answered.
在卡尔顿山上,当我举起手机时,他也举起了双手。
宛若天成。
