【薛鹏思路拓展】
1. 工作是生活的重要部分,因此也是幸福的源泉,很多人将自己的职业成就感和薪水的高低联系到一起。薪水高意味企业重视自己,也体现了自我的价值,因此,获得职业成就感和自豪感的机会就多, 这就是为何很多年轻人愿意异乡拼搏以赚取高薪。
2. 远走他乡,尽管亲情和友情也许会疏远,但是,高薪可以给在未来给家人带来更加幸福的生活。具体而言,改善居住环境,使子女接受精英教育,家人的医疗有保障等,这些也是幸福的源泉。
3. 选择在异国他乡工作,人们也可以和亲人朋友通过网络或电话保持联系,同时,人们可以在假期的时候回家探亲,因此,家庭关系和朋友关系不一定会因为空间的隔离而疏远。
点评:推荐展开自己的例证;朋友的例证。
