A book that is not written to understand the world, but written to understand itself.

3/2 Edited to

... Read moreการอ่านหนังสือเล่มนี้เหมือนเป็นการนั่งคุยกับตัวเองในวันที่ชีวิตดูยุ่งเหยิงและเต็มไปด้วยคำถามมากมาย ในช่วงที่โตขึ้น ผมเองก็สังเกตว่า "ยิ้มน้อยลง" เหมือนกับคำที่โผล่มาจากภาพในหนังสือ เพราะความเป็นผู้ใหญ่ที่ต้องเผชิญกับความรับผิดชอบต่างๆ มักทำให้ความสดใสและความสงบในใจจางลงเล็กน้อย หนังสือเล่มนี้ไม่ได้เสนอคำตอบแบบตายตัวหรือมองโลกในแง่เดียว แต่กลับเป็นเหมือนกระจกที่สะท้อนความคิดและความรู้สึกภายใน ซึ่งทำให้ผมรู้สึกเหมือนได้จัดการกับความคิดที่ฟุ้งกระจายอยู่ในหัวให้เป็นระบบมากขึ้น แต่ละบทเหมือนการตั้งคำถามที่เรามักจะไม่กล้าถามตัวเอง หรือบางคำถามที่ดูเหมือนไม่มีคำตอบที่ชัดเจน แต่ผ่านการไตร่ตรองแล้ว กลับช่วยให้เราเข้าใจที่มาที่ไปของความรู้สึกหรือพฤติกรรมบางอย่างที่เคยทำไปโดยไม่รู้ตัว สิ่งที่ผมชอบที่สุดคือไม่มีการตัดสินว่าคำตอบไหนถูกหรือผิด เพราะการปล่อยให้เราเป็นตัวของตัวเองอย่างแท้จริง ถือเป็นการฮีลใจที่แท้จริง — นี่จึงเป็นหนังสือฮีลใจที่ผมแนะนำสำหรับใครก็ตามที่กำลังรู้สึกสับสน หลงทาง หรืออยากเข้าใจตัวเองให้ดีขึ้น การใช้คำถามและเนื้อหาที่ทำให้ผู้อ่านได้ทบทวนตัวเองอย่างจริงจัง พร้อมกับบรรยากาศที่อบอุ่นและเป็นกันเอง ทำให้ผมรู้สึกว่าการอ่านหนังสือเล่มนี้ไม่ใช่แค่การอ่านทั่วไป แต่เป็นการเดินทางกลับบ้านเพื่อพบกับตัวเองอย่างแท้จริง สำหรับใครที่กำลังมองหาหนังสือที่จะช่วยปลดล็อคความคิดและหัวใจของตัวเอง ผมเชื่อว่าหนังสือเล่มนี้จะเป็นตัวเลือกที่ดีอย่างแน่นอน อย่างไรก็ดี คำว่า "โตขึ้นแล้ว ยิ้มน้อยลง?" ที่เห็นในภาพก็เป็นคำชวนคิดที่ดี เพราะมันสะท้อนความเป็นจริงของชีวิตที่อาจไม่ได้สดใสเหมือนแต่ก่อน แต่เราสามารถทำใจให้สงบและยิ้มได้กับตัวเองในแบบของเรา
