平生太湖上，短棹几经过，于今重到何事？愁比水云多。拟把匣中长剑，换取扁舟一叶，归去老渔蓑。银艾非吾事，丘壑已蹉跎。
脍新鲈，斟美酒，起悲歌：太平生长，岂谓今日识干戈！欲泻三江雪浪，净洗胡尘千里，无为挽天河。回首望霄汉，双泪坠清波。

人工置顶一下。

心大了，事情就小了。

如果受了伤就喊一声痛，
真的说出来就不会太难过。
不去想自由，
反而更轻松，
愿意感动孤独单不忐忑。
生活啊生活啊，
会快乐也会寂寞，
生活啊生活啊，
明天我们好好的过。

爱生活，爱寄托。
一直在这里。我爱你们。

职业水贴员。。。一个正在备考T的人回来水贴。。

刚刚看了下charismatic的例句觉得上面的中文释义有点缺陷。。

下面的MW给出的解释

a member of a religious group or movement that stresses the seeking of direct divine inspiration and charisms (as glossolalia or healing)

个人觉得这个词还是慎用，宗教感极强，不能简简单单说成有魅力的。。。
