          Teens don't want to be seen with their parents, much less talk to them or do anything with them. That's what we hear all the time. I don't believe it. Oh,sure, when my daughter and my son were in their teens, they wanted to spend most of their free time with their friends. But there were always those special times planned when we enjoyed being alone with each other, when we connected deeply, and when we were reminded again how much we loved one another.

          I recall how delighted my 14-year-old daughter, Alisa, felt when I asked her for a date to see a movie. It was a bittersweet Italian movie, Cinema Paradiso, and I wanted this story to give her a sense of how I grew up as an Italian boy in a small town, where life was simple and where everyone knew one another. I wanted her to know how her father had been brought up and shaped.

          We both laughed and cried during the same scenes in the movie. She was attached to the movie. I decided we should complete our evening with some lively conversation at a nearby bakery. I told her the movie was now so much more special for me because I had shared it with her. She smiled. She understood. We made a memory that night.

          From our living room window, I saw my 13-year-old son, Jason, tearfully searching our vegetable garden for a place to bury his pet boa constrictor (蟒蛇). Because my son had suffered from asthma (哮喘) and allergies, he could never have  a dog, a faithful friend that he wanted so much. Every pet he owned—lizards, fish, or snakes—had died.

          I was at his side as we searched for the best gravesite (墓地). We dug the grave, said our goodbyes and then he cried. He cried hard and he asked me why every pet he had owned died so soon. I could feel his heart break against my chest. I just held him close. He let me hold his aching soul. He needed me while he was confused. Share your heart with your teens. Show them repeatedly that you know and love who they really are. There are tender memories waiting to be made.

源源本本

舒婷

    床垫晒过了,被单和窗帘等织物浆洗过了,冬菇和黄花菜因吸饱了阳光,黄灿灿地都密封贮存起来。一切都准备好,就等梅雨季节来临。

    可是,每天每天,太阳若无其事准时上班,阳光已慷慨得近似奢侈。道路依然干燥。人们开始频频眺望天空。在乡下,农民们忧郁地在田埂上走来走去,抽水机也搬出来了。报纸开始排出抗旱消息。

    望雨的心情犹如守候一位爱唠叨的老朋友。来得密了真觉得烦,在该来不来的时候,无论手上忙着什么,心总是慌慌地倾听着门外。

    于是忆起小时候背着书包在水洼边流连而屡屡迟到的事。尤其夏日骤雨初歇,无论马路上有多少灰尘和落叶,积水依然澄清,映出明净的天空,冉冉的云和摇动的树枝。童话里说有个孩子,失足掉进水洼,竟漫游了一个奇异的世界。至今我还信,只是这扇门需用幻想的眼睛来叩开。

    覆着绿苔的清泉,在怪石间迂回跳跃的小溪,卵石铺底的河流,都能使人喜悦。人在经过水的沐浴之后,重新变得柔韧、挺拔、新鲜。我曾经问我的老师蔡其矫:“何以有水源的地方都会唤起一种感动?”

    “因为,”他偏着头,仿佛听着心中的流水之声。“生命起源于水。”

    他接着问:“除了水,你最喜欢什么?”

    “植物。”我不假思索地口答。

    家中长辈们常说,我的手刚能离开母亲的衣角独立行走时,立即攥住了一支“草籽花”。我时常无限惊异于植物自己的语言和表情。经过训练的手可以创造闻名的插花艺术,但大自然花的部落却有自己的组合方式,而且更加和谐、优美,具有竞争的蓬勃生机。

    四岁的儿子对我说,“妈妈,葡萄还绿的时候摘它,它很痛,要是红了,它很高兴让我们采。”

    我惊讶地间:“你怎么知道的呀?”

    “因为我使劲拽,绿葡萄紧紧抓住枝条,熟了的时候,我们要忘了采,它就难过地一颗一颗落在地上。”

    我弯腰摸摸孩子的脸,像母树以枝条拂过它的腋芽。

    我和儿子有共同的经验。我的校园每年两次剪枝,我经过那些狼藉一地的权枝时,仿佛处在大屠杀之中。那四周无声的尖叫使我逃也似的飞跑,直跑到浑身发抖为止。

    是广州的植物园,使我好像接近了生命秘密的边缘。

    那是极普通的深秋初冬一个日子,云层很薄,阳光也不来装饰。水很静,完完全全。可能还很浅,但深绿色的浮游生物使水湾深邃幽远。水杉的华丽的树冠直垂到水面,看去像庞大的动物在饮水。庄严的水,安静的树,凤蹑足远去。我脚下的草地似乎渗出水来,凉凉的水意从我的脚跟导向全身。那一刻我迷迷惘惘地听到有无声的语言呼唤我,我全身都在主动回答。那树木始终严肃地凝视着,要提醒我一个雪亮的,然而却隔着层层云雾的秘密。

    也许,我曾经是它们的同类?

    我终究不能判断那些水杉和我交换的眼色该怎么翻译。但我发觉我盼雨的心情是一棵植物的爱恋和希望。

    可是,人类和水的关系不也是自然一个无可违抗的法则吗?
