A fost odata...


De ce plang salciile, mamico? Au ele oare lacrimi, au ele oare viata? Simt ele si vad ce se petrece in jurul lor? Sunt ele inseminate si folositoare?


Se spune ca au simtit odata si au plans pentru Domnul Iisus, atunci cand a fost batut cu cruzime de catre osteni, fara ca El sa carteasca vreun cuvant! Salcia nu a stiut la inceput pentru ce smulg ostenii ramurile ei si s-a lasat rupta, cum era oricum firesc, insa in momentul in care au vazut pentru ce au fost folosite, salciile toate si-au lasat ramurile sa atarne, de rusine, incepand sa planga cu lacrimi ce erau ca niste picuri parca prelinsi de la ploaia ce batuse inainte de vreme…

Si se mai spune ca inainte, salciile erau adevarati copaci, mandrii si cu ramurile inaltate spre cer!

Astazi am luat-o spre casa, de-a lungul malului Cibinului, un loc in care salcii dupa salcii te pot intrista cu durerea lor! A fost pentru prima data in viata mea cand am trecut pe langa salciile acelea si de 3 ori am fost atinsa de picurii lor; trei salcii diferite, in trei locuri diferite, stropita! Nu mi-a venit sa cred; am auzit si eu o multime de povesti despre salciile plangatoare, dar niciodata nu m-am dat in vant sa incerc lucrul acesta sau sa-l cred, macar! Era o informatie pe care o acaparasem, de care eram constienta si atat, pentru ca altceva nu ma interesa!

Un strop, o lacrima, ca sa ii spun pe nume, mi-a poposit intre brat si antebrat, tocmai pe partea opusa cotului; a fost un picur enorm si a fost cel de-al doilea pe care il simtisem! Intaia oara nu mi-am dat seama ce se intampla, ma gandeam ca poate va incepe sa ploua, dar cel de-al doilea picur m-a facut sa-mi dau seama despre ce e vorba; iar a treia oara, a fost confirmarea!

Simteam compasiune, ma uitam la ele si parca pareau intr-adevar amarate, necajite, fara niciun viitor sigur si confortabil! Cand ma gandesc ca lemnul lor nu e bun de nimic, nu poate fi folosit nici macar la fabricarea chibriturilor… macar am vazut ca salcia contine o substanta care este integrata in aspirina; sa aiba si ea o mica intrebuintare acolo, sa nu piara fara folos! Plus ca se mai fac cosuri din nuieluse, iar de Florii la Biserica, se dau crengute de salcie!

Cum putem gasi intelegere si adevarate povesti, in toate din jurul nostru; eu personal admir salciile pentru ca au avut curajul sa aleaga o viata lipsita de vlaga si de importanta majora (precum bradul, fagul, pinul, etc.), hotarand sa ramana o viata intreaga si lunga, ca niste simple ‘plante’ ormanentale de parcuri si gradini sau poposind pe malurile raurilor! Au ales ce era mai trist pentru ele, dar au ramas in acelasi timp, simbol in intreaga lume!

Te uiti la ele si te intrebi ce folos mai au si salciile astea “n” pe care le intalnim, insa pana la urma, rolul lor e foarte important; in primul rand, tin umbra vara, celor care merg la un gratarel sau altele, in parcuri la fel ii gasesti tinand umbra vreunei banci pe care sta obosita si gafaind, o doamna in varsta pe care puterile sunt gata sa o lase din cauza toropelii de afara, copiii smulg adesea frunzulitele facandu-si bot de rata si iata ca nu in ultimul rand, primim crengute sfintite in fiecare an de Florii, pentru a ne feri casa de cele rele si urate!

Si oare de ce nu vedem niciodata salcii batrane, batrane? Traiesc ele peste 200 de ani si totusi niciodata nu le vezi uscate si negricioase precum alti arbori… Cred ca salciile nu se arata prin lacrimi orisicui, cei carora le impartasesc patima lor, sunt oameni alesi! Criteriile, pot fi multiple si fiecare e ales dupa un punct anume. Ele vor sa ne reaminteasca durerea lor imensa, modul de viata ales pentru un lucru care a meritat si nu in ultimul rand, vor sa ne sensibilizeze; nu sa avem mila de ele, ci sa ne faca mai buni, prin ceea ce au ele de oferit!

Sunt unii inalti ca brazii si prosti ca nimeni altul si sunt altii pricajiti si uitati de lume cum sunt salciile si cu o poveste si o viata incontestabila!

Alegerile ne apartin intotdeauna si nimanui nu trebuie sa ii dam explicatii pentru faptele noastre; atata timp cat noi ducem o viata impacata cu noi insine, merita orice!

Fara cuvinte, plang doar...

Ma Li & Zhai Xiaowei...

E impresionant video-ul... el fara un picior, cu o carje pe post de sustinator, iar ea fara o mana, dansand! L-am vazut de vreo 10 ori si am plans de fiecare data! Ambitia, dorinta, pofta de viata, sufletul mare, optimismul si iubirea pentru tine insuti, poate face ca imposibilul si irealizabilul sa devina firesc!

Mai jos, am gasit povestea lor, pe internet; cei care cauta bloguri in general, spun eu, sunt cunoscatori de limba engleza, asa ca, am incredere ca veti intelege!

O poveste incredibila, o lectie de viata!

The girl (Ma, Li) was a beautiful promising professional ballerina when she lost her right arm in a car accident in 1996. She was only 19. Her handsome boy friend walked away from her. She tried to kill herself only to be saved by her parents. Her love for her parents gave her the strength to live. She learned how to live her life independently. She learned how to write Chinese beautifully and how to do many things including combing her hair, which she had to cut short from the waist-length to shoulder-length. She learned to cook and to wash clothes ... In a few months she opened her small bookstore. Five years later in 2001, she was invited to compete at the 5th national special performing art competition for handicaps and won the gold medal. That success gave her the hope to return to her beloved stage. In 2002, a handsome 20-year-old young man (Li, Tao) madly fell in love with her. She ran away from him for fear of being hurt again. After she disappeared in Beijing, Tao searched her up and down despite his parents' strong objection and ridicule. He finally found her dancing in a bar. They have never been separated since. They were very broke when SARS was spreading because all theaters were closed. In 2004, he got a license to be her legitimate agent and was trying to help her develop a unique performance. In a cold snowy night, when the two huddled in an underpass to wait for the sunrise in order to catch a bus after a long day at a movie shooting site working as extras, she suddenly had the urge to dance in the snow with him. She had used her dance to tell him her story so many times before and this time, after their "dance" ended, he suddenly realized that THIS should be her unique performance. In September 2005, she ran into a 21-year-old young man (Zhai, Xiaowei). He was being trained to be a cyclist for the national special olympics. He had never danced before. He climbed on a tractor when he was 4 years old and fell off it and lost his left leg. His dad asked him, "The doctor will have to amputate your leg. Are you afraid?" He couldn't comprehend what would be so different so he said no. His dad said, "You are going to face many challenges and difficulties in life, are you afraid?" He asked, "What are 'challenges and difficulties?' Do they taste good?" His dad laughed with tears, "Yes, they're like your favorite candies. You just need to eat them one piece at a time!" (Then his dad ran out of the room in tears.) So he's always very optimistic and athletic with a great sense of humor. He had tried high-jump, long-jump, diving, swimming, and just settled on cycling. His coach believed that he would be able to get 2-3 gold medals in the national special Olympics games. (In the video interview, you can see him doing a bridge with great ease!) He initially didn't understand how he could "dance," so Li invited him to see her performing "Hand in Hand" with another male actor. He felt that he saw a perfect soul dancing on the stage and agreed to give it a try. Li & Tao treated him like their younger brother and they stayed under the same roof during the more than 1 year of intensive training and practice. One would not be able to imagine the kind of challenges and difficulties they faced. He had NO dancing background and she is a perfectionist. There are so many touching stories. Much determination has gone into the making of this performance. Just for that one "drop" move at 3:41 of the clip, he landed her on the hard floor more than 1000 times!!! To get the move right, they started at 8 a.m. and got the first successful move shortly after 8 pm! All they did was to train and to practice from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. day-in and day-out until the three of them ran out of money in early 2007 ... The rest is history. In April they were one of the finalists among 7000 competitors in the 4th CCTV national dance competition. It is the first time a handicapped couple ever entered the competition. They won the Silver medal with the 99.17 high score and not to mention the highest audience popular votes. They became an instant national hit.
