美在尽力

还记得王安石在《游褒禅山记》中写过他自己走过人生的一句贴心感受：“然力足以至焉，于人为可讥，而在己为有悔；尽吾志也而不能至者，可以无悔矣，其孰能讥之乎？”“尽吾志”即尽自己最大努力，则可以无悔矣。而“力足以至焉”而不至，就会同美国第39任总统吉米?卡特一样为人嘲笑。1946年，年轻的吉米?卡特从海军学院毕业后，遇到了当时的海军上将里?科费将军，将军让他随便说几件自认为比较得意的事情。于是，踌躇满志的吉米?卡特得意洋洋地谈起了自己的海军学院毕业的成绩：“在全校820名毕业生中，我名列第58名。”他满以为将军听了会夸奖他，孰料，将军没有，反而问道：“你为什么不是第一名，你尽自己最大努力了吗？”卡特满脸惊愕，继而，羞愧得脸红。后来，吉米?卡特牢牢记住这句话，每走一步，每烙上一个生命脚印，他都问自己：“你尽自己最大努力了吗？”正因为这样，他不再在乎脚印的直或弯、深或浅，只要每一个脚印里留着奋斗的力量，只要每一段人生路上都洒满了努力的汗水，只要蓦然回首人生的时候，能摸着自己均匀跳动的脉搏说一句“我努力了”，他就满足了。

I still remember Wang Anshi's intimate feeling of his own life in the journey to baochan mountain: "however, the strength is enough to be ridiculed by people, and there is regret in oneself; if I can't reach the goal, there is no regret, which one can ridicule?" "Do my will" is to do my best, then you can have no regrets. But if we don't have enough strength, we will be ridiculed like Jimmy Carter, the 39th president of the United States. After graduating from the Naval Academy in 1946, young Jimmy Carter met General Lee Coffey at that time. The general asked him to say a few things he thought were more proud of. So Jimmy Carter, who was full of ambition, talked triumphantly about the results of his naval academy graduation: "of the 820 graduates in the school, I was ranked 58th." He thought that the general would praise him when he heard it. However, the general did not. Instead, he asked, "Why are you not the first? Have you done your best?" Carter's face was startled, then blushed with shame. Later, Jimmy Carter remembered this sentence firmly. Every step he took and every footprint he put on his life, he asked himself, "have you done your best?" Just because of this, he no longer cares about the straight or curved, deep or shallow footprints. As long as there is the strength of struggle in each footprints, as long as every section of life is covered with hard sweat, as long as suddenly looking back on life, he can feel the pulse of his own even beat and say "I tried", he will be satisfied.
