小年夜的遐想——和諧
改革開放三十年系列談之五
文/安如山成稿于2009年1月19日小年之夜
今日是我們南方的小年夜。小年夜也是一個團(tuán)圓夜。
今日過小年,也令如山浮想連篇的。
如山最先想起了小時候。小時候,如山最盼望的事就是過小年了。記得那時候過小年,就會有好吃的。如今的小年對于小孩子來說也沒有多大的意義了。因為,如今的小孩子每天都是過小年一樣。他們的心目中已經(jīng)沒有了多少的過小年的意識,反到對西方的圣誕節(jié)鐘情了起來。
如山又想到了前不久看的馮小剛的賀歲片《非誠勿憂》。片子里有一句以搞笑方式出現(xiàn)的非常正統(tǒng)的臺詞:“21世紀(jì)什么最貴?和諧?!?br/>
小年夜的如山想起了和諧。
21世紀(jì)什么最貴?和諧。和諧是很難能可貴的。我們國家的目標(biāo)也是要建一個和諧的社會,鑄造一個和諧的世界。和諧,最怕的就是折騰。中國人就喜歡折騰。折騰來折騰去的,最后就沒有了和諧,一個地球、一個國家、一個社會、一個單位、一個組織、一個家庭都莫不如是。喜歡折騰就會要葬送和諧。
和諧原本就那么的貴,原本就那樣的難以追尋。
要想實現(xiàn)和得到和諧,先得有一個和諧的精神。
什么樣的精神是和諧的精神。和諧的精神對于一個國家來說,就是要以民為本,以和為貴。和諧的精神對于一個家庭、一個小團(tuán)體來說,就是要以國為家,以家為本。沒有和諧的國家,不可能有和諧的家庭,沒有和諧的家庭,也不可能有和諧的社會。
小年夜令如山想起和諧,就令如山想起了家庭這個社會最基本的細(xì)胞的意義。
家庭的和諧,要有一定的舉案齊眉的精神,以前的女人把男人叫做“當(dāng)家的”。這也是過去的家庭與現(xiàn)代的家庭不同,并更能實現(xiàn)“和諧”的原因所在。任何家庭都經(jīng)不起折騰,一哭二鬧三上吊,這樣的家庭不要也罷。折騰來折騰去,一個家庭拆了,一個家庭散了,社會還是不能和諧。原本就不喜歡和諧而喜歡折騰的人,即使你建立了新的家庭,你也不是實現(xiàn)家庭和諧的料。家庭和諧是社會和諧的基礎(chǔ)。國家和諧是世界和諧的基石。
國家的和諧,要有一點點調(diào)和的精神。任何國家都經(jīng)不起折騰。一個國家搞了黨派政治,又搞經(jīng)濟(jì)政治;討好了這個主義,又討好那個主義;掀起了內(nèi)戰(zhàn),又喊抵抗侵略;反了內(nèi)訌,又反殖民;游了行,還罵娘,這都不是和諧的民族精神。國家有內(nèi)爭的,外面的環(huán)境也不可能好到哪兒去的。一個國家折騰夠了,他們的人民也不可能和諧到哪兒去的。死了兒子的,沒有了丈夫的,被強(qiáng)奸了女兒的,這樣的家庭如果是和諧的,那是一個顛倒黑白的真理的緣故。如今有很多人還生活在非常時代里,還回憶和欣賞著非常年代里的生活,似乎很向往和理解非常年代里的生活。我們這樣的堂堂的一個大國,似乎有這么多年沒有了戰(zhàn)爭,在致力于自己的經(jīng)濟(jì)建設(shè),反而覺得不正常了,手里有了點小錢,心里就開始癢癢了。這是戰(zhàn)爭的后遺癥。我們的民族要警惕。誰去談判,誰去中止戰(zhàn)爭,就會要貼上“投降派”“賣國賊”的標(biāo)簽?!皹寳U子出政權(quán)”,“落后就要挨打”、“帝國主義和一切反動派都是紙老虎”,這是戰(zhàn)爭的機(jī)器的極不和諧的轟鳴聲。
別看以巴沖突和俄烏“斗氣”,他們都是國內(nèi)不能和諧,就把矛盾轉(zhuǎn)移到國際之間來。別看美國金融危機(jī)不和諧,他們可要把全世界的經(jīng)濟(jì)都要拉下水。以色列不和諧,把戰(zhàn)爭當(dāng)機(jī)器,以提高黨派的競爭實力。巴勒斯坦不和諧,哈馬斯就用婦女、兒童當(dāng)盾牌,以提高其組織在阿拉伯世界里的地位,他們真有好的理念,他們一手拿著槍,一手拿著橄欖枝。那個國家不和諧,黨內(nèi)爭權(quán),階層爭利,就會把最苦難的人民綁上戰(zhàn)爭的機(jī)器,縱觀古今,了覽中外,都莫不如是,不要聽一切的歷史的、非歷史的所謂真理或者謊言。
俄羅斯和烏克蘭本是居于同一個屋檐下,但最近卻因一些并非天然的“氣”而生氣,并發(fā)展“斗氣”,昔日兄弟,今日反目成仇。他們掌控著世界資源,卻要拿世界資源來要挾世界人民。戰(zhàn)爭的機(jī)器又可能要發(fā)動。21世紀(jì)最不能和諧的可能就是“能源”。
小年夜如山還想起了剛剛過世的姑媽。姑媽中風(fēng)多年了,于前兩天過世,走完了她80歲的歷程。她是一個貧苦的最基層的農(nóng)村家庭主婦。她卻是中國和諧家庭的典范。姑媽成功的和諧,關(guān)鍵的是她一輩子想任何事、做任何事首先想到的都不是自己,而是兒女、丈夫、親人和朋友。兒時的如山最喜歡到姑媽家。因為姑媽家是一個典型的和諧家庭,有著特殊的和諧氣氛。姑媽讀書不多,善于言談,是一個和諧的高手,關(guān)系很善于調(diào)理,到老都能保持一種特殊的風(fēng)采。如山結(jié)論:自私是人類最大的敵人,自私是和諧最大的敵人。動不動就宣揚國家利益、民族利益的都不是什么好鳥。國家的好戰(zhàn)分子和家庭的折騰分子,在本質(zhì)是一樣的。姑媽的理念就掀不起戰(zhàn)爭,無論是家庭的戰(zhàn)爭和國家的戰(zhàn)爭。但姑媽絕不是弱者,她同樣得到了親人、家庭、社會的尊重。
如山還想到單位里的一些轉(zhuǎn)業(yè)軍人,他們就喜歡戰(zhàn)爭,喜歡在單位里搬弄是非。這是戰(zhàn)爭理念在他們心里刻下的陰影。他們處理人際關(guān)系也當(dāng)作了戰(zhàn)場,以勝負(fù)見分曉。當(dāng)然中國的經(jīng)濟(jì)條件還不夠。如果條件成熟,如山建議國家設(shè)立職業(yè)軍人制度。軍人不能轉(zhuǎn)業(yè)地方,不能把地方的和諧當(dāng)作軍人戰(zhàn)爭理念的實驗場。軍人不談經(jīng)濟(jì)、不談?wù)危吹揭晾碎_戰(zhàn)了,他們津津樂道,看到印巴沖突了,他們也磨拳擦掌了。軍人和戰(zhàn)爭都不是和諧社會的力量源泉。和諧社會的力量源泉是如山的剛剛過世的姑媽。
小年夜里,如山在為姑媽默默地祈禱和祝福。如山想:她在另一個世界也挑不起任何的紛爭。
如山過兩天將送姑媽最后一程。好人命不長,或要最受盡了磨難才會離開這個世界。姑媽就是這樣,她就要在春節(jié)前,小年前離開這個世界。當(dāng)然已經(jīng)中風(fēng)了的姑媽是不知道四川汶川的地震的。她要是知道的話,也不知她要在這個風(fēng)雨中的小年夜里,為四川的他們流下多少的眼淚。
我佛慈悲。慈善的人的眼淚就是這個世界和你的家庭的潤滑劑。
朋友們,請你相信眼淚。
莫斯科不相信眼淚,安如山就相信眼淚。相信最真誠的眼淚。
因此,和諧也是一個虛擬的結(jié)構(gòu)。這個世界本沒有和諧。
和諧的理念的獲得,是改革開放三十年里最偉大的思想成就。
我們就是要和諧。我們不僅要和諧的家庭,和諧的社會。我們還要和諧的世界與和諧的太空。和諧就是這個世界里最和諧的詞匯。
