你永远也无法明了，我们做了多大努力，才对生活发生了兴趣。——安德烈·纪德

【文】你有什么资格，单纯得像个傻逼

一个上海女生写信给某杂志倾诉人际交往中的困惑。大致就是觉得自己是上海人，生活相对优渥人也相对单纯到了大学发现外地同学如狼似虎，各种不适应，她写道：“室友a早上天不亮就偷偷出去学英语却说自己只是去锻炼；室友b整天忙着和辅导员搞好关系想要直研；还有同学早早地忙着实习社工想为自己的今后添砖加瓦。我就是没有心计，基本上还是像个高中生，而身边那些外地人都特别有城府，卯着劲的嘴脸让我觉得很恶心。”

类似的感觉很容易在一众出生在大城市的年轻人里获得共鸣。我一向持水到渠成的看法，不肯定无谓的努力奋斗，但对于这种看法，还是有点意见：

你有没有资格为自己所谓的单纯感到优越？

我记得打工皇帝唐骏在没出事前对媒体提及自己的女儿，夸她单纯得像白纸，举出的事迹很呵呵：什么帮助一条街的乞丐，什么机油生日送一部手机。不过壕二代的单纯是无害的蠢，死活都有老子拿钱垫着摆平蠢就蠢吧。相形之下，权族后代的单纯要精明太多。没有用不来权术的为官者，他们的后代自然耳濡目染，只是对他们来说，现实生活中大多数事还是太trivial，还没有重要到需要使用手段。多数生长在大城市的青年，离有资格无忧无虑差得远。你父母省吃俭用为你撑起的优越感到了大学也差不多该坍缩了。你所谓的单纯，只是懒和蠢。我承认在高端领域，努力鲜有效果，不是按照一个计划按部就班一天学习十小时就可以成名成家，几乎所有抽象宏大的理想都不可能仅靠努力和所谓心计实现。然而努力确实可以让一个活在中低端的人不至于活成一坨烂泥：你没有天赋但勤勤恳恳，为了自己的未来完全靠自己的力量打拼，那至少不会活得太惨。说到底你所鄙视的外地人，努力逼，心计逼，其实只是比你更有自知之明，更会经营一个已经注定不会太精彩的人生罢了。而你对他们的厌恶，或许也仅仅出于对自己无能的愤怒与懒怠改变的失望。

想想一事无成如你，没有家族企业给你继承，没有学术追求砥砺你前进，有什么资格觉得活着如此轻松，单纯得像个傻逼。（文/汤嘉源Null）

歌词：
When was the last time you said these words
To the ones you deeply care for,
you know they care for you too
So let's all say the words, I will count to three
"1 & 2 & 3”
I love you
I have a mother; she was a very strict mother
And I was a rebel, made her life a living hell
But I'm not like that anymore
I want to make her smile
So I'd like to take this moment and say the words
I love you I love you I love you I love you …
I have a father; he doesn't talk much
He's one of those quiet types
you can barely get a word out of him
But I know deep down inside, he loves me so
So I'd like to take this moment and say the words
I love you I love you I love you I love you …
I have my friends, I could tell them everything
But how come I haven't told them
how much they mean to me
Is it because of the society restraining us from being free ?
So I'd like to take this moment and say the words
I love you I love you I love you I love you…
I have my ex-boyfriends; we don't talk anymore
But I never stop wishing them, happiness and joy
They were a big part of my life
and made me who I am today
So I'd like to take this moment and say the words
I thank you,I thank you,I thank you,
I thank you …
I have a pet. Her name is Tiffany
She's a 7 year old domestic cat
pretending she is me
But she always cheers me up
when I look into her pretty eyes
So I'd like to take this moment and say the words
Meow Meow Meow Meow Meow Meow Meow Meow…
So many people in this world, doing what they can
To make a difference everyday
so we can all be here to stay
Some of them will be heroes
but some of them will never be heard
So I'd like to take this moment and say the words
I thank you, I thank you, I thank you,
I thank you…
So this is near the end of the song
I hope you feel the love
It's not the typical song I write
but it's coming from the heart
If you haven't said these words
then what the hell are you waiting for ?
Because it never hurts to say these words !
I love you , I love you ,I love you , I love you …
everybody “I love you ,I love you , I love you ,
I love you …”
So when was the last time you said these words
To the ones you deeply care for
you know they care for you too
So let's all say the words, I'll count to three
"1 & 2 & 3”
I love you
