疲惫的时候总会安慰自己：要挺住呀！

简单的几个字，也许会莫名的触动那些同样疲惫不堪的灵魂。

我能坚持下来的运动可能就只有晨跑了。一大早看到躲在云彩后面的羞答答不肯露面的太阳，深深吸进一口夹杂着青草和露珠的清香的空气，每每此时都会感谢能够六点钟就起床的自己。

跑步是一个享受自我的过程。听着风在耳边轻轻吟唱，脚边的大海在平静而深沉的呼吸，耳机里的老歌带来斑驳的回忆，整个身体都是自由而畅快的。

我喜欢这样的感觉。人生总是要有那么几个能够坚持下去的事情，再大的疲惫在运动之后也是可以化解的。

① 在全国范围内，每个想工作的美国人都有不止一个工作机会。② 然而，今年9月份的就业人数为19.4万人，是今年以来月度增幅最小的，这与一些政客和经济学家们的预测背道而驰，他们认为联邦紧急失业救济金的到期将促使更多的人去找工作。③ 这些相互矛盾的数据表明，劳动力市场已经被新冠疫情严重扰乱，而且这种情况可能会持续一段时间。
