Ⅴ.任务型阅读
One of my patients, a successful businessman, tells me that before he fell ill he wasn’t happy. Happiness was “having the cookie”. Only if you had the cookie could things be good. Unluckily, the cookie kept changing. Some of the time it was money, sometimes power, sometimes fancy things.
A year and a half after his diagnosis(诊断) of cancer, he sits in my office shaking his head.“It’s like I stopped learning how to live after I was a kid. When I give my son a cookie, he is happy. If I take the cookie away or it breaks, he is unhappy. But he is 2 years old and I am 43. It has taken me a long time to understand that the cookie will never make me happy for long,” he says.“The minute you have the cookie, you start to worry about someone trying to take it away from you.”
My patient laughs and says cancer has changed him. For the first time he is happy. No matter if his business is doing well or not, no matter if he wins or loses at golf.“Two years ago, cancer asked me, ‘What is really important ’ Well, life is important. You can have it in any way, life with the cookie, life without the cookie. Happiness doesn’t have anything to do with the cookie; it has something to do with being alive,” he pauses thoughtfully.“I guess life is the cookie.”
