具体描述
Jonathan Livingston Seagull, the most celebrated inspirational fable of our time, tells the story of a bird determined to be more than ordinary. This bestselling modern classic, reissued with a beautiful new cover design, is a story for people who want to follow their dreams and make their own rules and has inspired people for decades. 'Most gulls don't bother to learn more than the simplest facts of flight -- how to get from shore to food and back again,' writes author Richard Bach in this allegory about a unique bird named Jonathan Livingston Seagull. 'For most gulls it is not flying that matters, but eating. For this gull, though, it was not eating that mattered, but flight.' Flight is indeed the metaphor that makes this story soar. This bestselling modern classic is a fable about seeking a higher purpose in life, even if your flock, tribe or neighbourhood finds your ambition threatening (at one point our beloved gull is even banished from his flock). By not compromising his higher vision, Jonathan learns the meaning of love and kindness and gets the ultimate payoff -- transcendence. The dreamy illustrations by Russell Munson provide just the right illustrations for this spirituality classic that has inspired thousands of readers to follow their own path in life and so fulfill their true potential.

读后感
图多字少。随便翻翻。 从自我否定,寻找理想,到实现理想,得到精神自由,最后回归到博爱,算是一本自我成长,向善的书。但是到底能给人多大的力量呢?相信自我的能力,心有多大,世界就有多大。破除束缚,还是靠自己的信念。如果自己都不相信自己可以做,可以做到,那就一定做...
打开《海鸥乔纳森》,扉页写着“献给真正的海鸥乔纳森,他就活在我们心中”。不禁思索,真正的海鸥乔纳森是怎样的形象?一百个人阅读,会有一百种解释,而全书让我印象最深的一句,他是“一只在学习中追求卓越的海鸥。” 在乔纳森身上,我看到了17岁就开始学习飞行的作者的身...
乔纳森是不安分的,他想学习关于飞行,他觉得过程是比结果重要的多的,自己一生的价值不是在于飞来飞去喂饱自己,延续生命,最求速度和飞行的乐趣是自己真正的事业,他也是这么做的,结果却被驱逐出了生活的圈子,所幸的是,他找到了自己真正的天堂,之后充满热情的学习让他飞...
我对励志带着似乎天然的厌恶,因为在我的印象中它往往鼓吹个人在职场或商场的成功,以格言警句代替思考,以成为社会精英为目标。 无论是曾红极一时现在众人唾弃的李阳、舆论一致谴责大众仍然追捧的唐骏,还是以混蛋气质和幽默赢得年轻人喜爱的老罗,他们都以...

⭐️⭐️⭐️2020 33# Jonathan Livingston Seagull ISBN:9781476754697 Feb 1st 中文译名《天地一沙鸥》比另一版本的译名《海鸥乔纳森》好听太多,称赞这神来之笔。 这本书是在看《原宿牛仔》时提及1974年当时的畅销书,但是读过英文之后,我认为,这本书应该归到儿童文学之中(用词简单,角色关系简单),或者归到心灵鸡汤文(强行励志),但是心灵鸡汤泛滥到毒鸡汤的今天,这本书的范读性差了太多。建议10岁之前饮用。
