跳跳羊

Here's a story on how strange is life with its changes
And it happened not long ago.
On a high mountain plain, where the sagebrush arranges
A playground south of the snow
Lived a lamb with a coat of remarkable sheen,
It would glint in the sunlight all sparkly and clean,
Such a source of great pride
that it caused him to preen.
And he'd break out in high stepp'n dance.
He would dance for his neighbors across the way.
I must say that they found his dancin' enhancin',
For they'd also join in the play. (sound of other animals)
　　
Then one day…(*pulls sheep away and shaves fluffy coat off..all naked*)(sound of shears; then lightening, thunder, and rain)
　　
Then a-boundin up the slope
Came a great American jackalope.
This sage of the sage, this rare hare of hope,
Caused to pause and check out the lamb.
"Hey kid, why the mope?"
　　
(inpitiful voice)"I used to be something all covered with fluff,
And I'd dance in the sunlight and show off my stuff,
Then they hauled me away in a manner quite rough
And sheared me and dropped me back here in the buff.
And if that's not enough
Now my friends all laugh at me
Cause they think I look ridiculous, funny, and pink."
　　
"Pink? Pink? Well, what's wrong with pink?
Seems you've got a pink kink in your think.
Does it matter what color? Well, that gets nope.
Be it pink purple or heliotrope.
Now sometimes you're up and sometimes you're down,
When you find that you're down well just look around:
You still got a body, good legs and fine feet,
Get your head in the right place and hey, you're complete!
　　
Now as for the dancin', you can do more,
You can reach great heights, in fact you can soar.
You just get a leg up and ya slap it on down,
And you'll find you're up in what's called a bound.
Bound, bound, and rebound.
Bound and you're up right next to the sky,
And I think you can do it if you give it a try,
First get a leg up, slap it on down…"
　　
(Music and bounding sound)
　　
So every year, along about May,
They'd load him up and they'd haul him away,
And they'd shave him and dump him all naked and bare.
He learned to live with it, he didn't care,
He'd just bound, bound, bound, and rebound.
　　
Now in this world of ups and downs…
So nice to know there are jackalopes around.

很棒的片子~很小可是很感人~它安慰了我们~告诉我们该如何生活~告诉了我们如何和它一起跳跳~跳出这生活~就可以生活在别处~

很多时候我们是走不出自己给自己画的圈子。遭到了别人的否定之后就一直蜷缩在自己的小圈子里，一步也不肯迈出去，把自己就困死在里面了。有的人因此越来越看轻自己，虽然有时候当我们看轻自己后可以看清自己，但是一旦过了头就容易沉落下去。我也是这样的人，明明知道所谓的出的“丑”不算什么，人家笑话也只是一时的娱乐罢了，然而自己就是走不出去。后来鼓起勇气去尝试了以后才发现，其实一切都没什么。人家根本不在意是谁出的“丑”。很多时候你自己越是胆怯别人才会越记得。人总是要有点自娱精神。无论做什么事，首先自己要觉得再正常不过（否则就别去做了），然后无论别人怎么笑话（或者奉承）怎么说三道四说长道短的自己都要表现的无所谓（当然不是要憋得内伤）。别人渐渐的也许就觉得无趣了。处于人生的高潮时要如此，处于人生的低潮也要如此。
此外，音乐也喜欢啊

前两天看珍藏版"The Incredibles"(超人总动员)， 在DVD碟2中看到了这部2003年获最佳奥斯卡动画短片提名的"Boundin'"...

这部由Pixar公司资深动画设计师Bud Luckey(Toy Story中Woody警长的设计师)设计的这个短片讲的是在草原的高岗上居住着一只可爱的小羊羔。这只小咩咩可不一般，长着一身闪闪发光（令人”羡慕）的羊毛，每天都会骄傲地地来上一段欢快的舞步。但是有一天，它那身引以为豪、充满光泽的外套却被人刮光了。沮丧自卑的小羊羔再也跳不起来了，直到有一天一只聪明的兔子，带上羊角佯装成“秃羊”，教他如何跨越这一切，重新跳起欢快的舞步。

以温馨可爱的诗歌吟唱的方式，Bud Luckey告诉我们:"Now in this world of ups and downs, so nice to know there are Jackalopes ..."

当踫到这样那样的困惑，当我们沮丧失落，当我们停滞不前的时候，希望我们的"Jackalope"能够跑来鼓励我们,然后去看看这个小短片，看看被刮光毛还在在跳欢快舞步的小羊羔，生活或许会变得可爱一些。。。
