7、來(lái)，人們歷來(lái)追求事事的完美，然而，事事皆不完美，即使是人們心目中最完美的東西也有它的破綻。就像是海明威和他的名著《老人與?！防锏蔫F漢英雄圣地亞哥一樣，他們兩人都是人們心目中的完美主義者。然而在日常的生活中，完美主義者總是有著無(wú)窮無(wú)盡的悲哀，因?yàn)樗麄円簧淖非髸?huì)隨著自己目標(biāo)的達(dá)成變得越來(lái)越多。若是一個(gè)追求完美的人為自己定了很高的目標(biāo)而沒(méi)有實(shí)現(xiàn)時(shí)，他們就很容易陷入一種精神的怪圈，這樣的怪圈使得他們的內(nèi)心總是充滿矛盾，在不斷的掙扎中，他們難以

8、脫身。本論文從研究《老人與海》的悲劇色彩入手，分析老人的悲劇，指出他的悲劇是由他的完美主義思想所致，同時(shí)也說(shuō)明海明威的悲劇，海明威對(duì)自己的要求太高了，他不斷追求心中達(dá)到完美的目標(biāo)，甚至有些目標(biāo)已經(jīng)超過(guò)了他的能力范圍。然而，他的事事追求完美的思想使得他承受不了生活的壓力，病痛的折磨，最終，他以自殺結(jié)束了他本是輝煌燦爛的人生。接著論文則對(duì)世人覺(jué)得理所當(dāng)然的追求完美主義的思想提出質(zhì)疑。正如金無(wú)赤金，人無(wú)完人所闡述的道理，世間沒(méi)有絕對(duì)的完美。實(shí)

9、際上追求完美是彌補(bǔ)心靈空虛人的一劑良藥，但前提是在人們真正了解自己的潛能。一個(gè)人若是連自己都不了解，不知道自己真正所需，就過(guò)度追求生命中事事的完美，那他的一生必定沒(méi)有幸福，而且到頭來(lái)也不會(huì)得到他所追求的完美。整理我們的思緒，放棄不切實(shí)際的想法，做我們自己而不在意別人的想法，這才是我們每個(gè)人應(yīng)該做的。世界從來(lái)就不完美，學(xué)會(huì)放棄才是人生的寬途。本論文分析老人和海明威的悲劇以及對(duì)造成他們悲劇的原因追求完美主義，進(jìn)行分析，試圖說(shuō)明過(guò)分追求完美必
