Written to 2021

Thank you for your 360 days of daily companionship, a day, a month and a month, through this year, of course, there are occasional "Zhu Yan Ci Mirror Flower Ci Tree" sigh, although the white hair is frequently added, Fang feels that black hair is precious; and life is short, but also know that the years have feelings.

More and more moved by the flowers of spring, the wind of summer, the leaves of autumn, the snow of winter. Grateful for those casual good encounters, touched by the people around me who tolerate, click, and encourage me, thank the occasional contact, still be able to speak directly to my friends, miss the warm as old companionship of elderly parents, inadvertently, time will cross 2021, go forward!

2021 is a year of taotao and innocence, a year of self-attention and introspection, but also a year of self-improvement, enrichment and progress.

This year, we have gone from the beginning of the new crown epidemic to the other end of the continuation of the virus mutation, the work has not stopped, life has not stopped, we are still moving forward, near the end of the year, Xi'an found the new crown epidemic, and there is a trend of aggravation, thousands of miles away, my children are studying in Xi'an, school closures, Xi'an lockdown. Worry is inevitable, today there are more than 170 new cases, the number of new cases in recent days has only increased, the inflection point has not yet appeared, but think of the current new crown vaccine has been widely vaccinated, even if suffering from new crown pneumonia, it is mostly ordinary and mild patients, there should be a faster treatment speed, a greater chance of cure. Coupled with the fact that we still have the experience of lockdown in Wuhan, I have always been optimistic, and told my children that it is meaningful to be prepared to fight a protracted war and spend an unusual New Year with classmates and teachers in school.

Thinking of the various announcements posted by the street office in the community this spring, in order to encourage the people to get vaccines, the announcement of distributing eggs, receiving subsidies, and getting paper pumps, I don't feel like Wan'er, for a government that takes "the people's life above all else" as its mission, even if the people do not know the importance of life, he will find ways to make people obey, I have no reason not to believe: winter will eventually pass, spring is not far away.

In this year, the original office space of our unit was occupied and converted into railway public rental housing construction land, which was used for a group of railway newcomers to join the railway construction camp. We moved into a new office location, which is a high-rise office office facing the street business office, in the hustle and bustle of the world, high-rise, high-rise buildings, lined with high-rise buildings, lined with rows, the blue spring signs of Quancheng Square look exquisite and petite among the high-rise buildings, like a blue matchstick. As far as the eye can see, it is still a high-rise stack hidden in the distance, all the way to the edge of the sky, and the rapid development of the city may only be a small microcosm of China's development speed. Yet it is already jaw-dropping.

Just the day before yesterday, the Lunan high-speed railway was officially opened, colleagues have a circle of friends, in jining high-speed rail station, take photos to commemorate, as a railway engineer, my unit undertakes several of the power relocation and river diversion of several under the overpass, as a practitioner and witness of the rapid development of high-speed rail, it is difficult to hide the small pride in my heart! "Transportation power, railway first", as a member of the brave pioneers, this year, we have taken an incomparably solid step!

Busy work, let people and Taotao, forget about self-input, but also to be happy mood, enrich themselves, I participated in the unit of the Palace of Culture organized vocal class, practice vocals, starting from the small song "Falling", when the low voice, high voice mixed vocal resonance in the ear, I seem to hear the sound of the world's natural sounds, the song has all the beauty of my thoughts in the flight, indescribable!

Occasionally high-intensity work for a day, physically and mentally exhausted, I will come to the gymnasium complex in the evening, dance a very rhythmic Zumba dance, the dance teacher's fierce and unrestrained movements coupled with focused and enthusiastic eyes, let me follow her footsteps, jump and move, involuntarily follow her forward, twist the hips, a dance down, sweating, body and mind to get great relaxation, want to come to life really need to continue to learn, beyond, first of all, to do it, do not learn to sing, I do not know that I can also join the choir, do not learn to dance, I didn't know that I could also transcend with the music.

It is not the standard of dance posture, but the relaxation of one's nervous nerves; not the quality of the singing, but the enjoyment of it, self-decompression. Who doesn't need a life of innocent dancing!

Weekly book club, is also my favorite place, with the book friends to read a book, each person recites a paragraph, read it, and then feel free to come, share their own reading experience, let me benefit a lot, this year with the book club, perused a few books on philosophy, history, poetry, I seem to be in the wider world, I know the broad and close chinese philosophy, Mr. Feng Youlan said: Each of us is philosophical. I think about our way of dealing with the world, how much Chinese philosophy we have inherited without knowing it.

In his spare time, he sat quietly at the table, drank a cup of tea, read a book, looked at the vastness of the world, the wisdom and civilization of mankind, gathered in his hands, especially when reading the "General History of China", Mr. Lu Simian, in the middle of the discussion, unbiasedly narrated the vicissitudes of China's history, and his compassion and broad home and country feelings penetrated the back of the paper, making people awe-inspired. How small we are, but in all things, how wise and knowledgeable are people, I feel humble and grateful for being able to read books, occasionally to be able to appreciate the spirit of them, and the smallness of man is to me, to the greatness of man, to the author of books.

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open up peace for all the worlds" This is the famous saying of the Northern Song Dynasty, his frank mind, grand ambition, or it is the generations of literati and Confucians who have followed and respected and practiced all the way, so is Mr. Feng Youlan, so is Mr. Lu Simian.

This year, with the book as a companion, to the literary friends, but also met many teachers and friends who like to read, they led and promoted me, let me continue to draw nutrition from it, feel and understand, the beauty of life, not only from life itself, but also from profound thoughts, I felt for the first time that the greatness of people's thoughts, the great power that bursts out,

This summer and autumn, I attended a literary creation training class, although it was only a short week, my brain was filled with training courses, I was like a puppet who was led by a line, and I was pulled step by step by the course. A writer named Qi Chunjie taught, only told six consciousnesses, four stories, moved us to a mess, he shed tears on the podium, we accompanied, he laughed between words, we were already happy offstage, in fact, he did not say anything else, just told him during the Wuhan epidemic lockdown, he went to the front line to interview the story, but we saw a frank, frank, dare to charge the cultural front of the warrior! People say that the interesting soul is one of the thousands, and Teacher Kui is one. At that moment, you'd rather be the kite in his hand and sway with him.

Life is so beautiful, in 2021, a 365 days quietly spent, there is growth, there is gain, there is happiness, there are also worries, as if the epidemic in Wuhan has just passed, the epidemic in Xi'an is coming again. I think that life always has ups and downs, we are in such ups and downs, touched, plump, enriched ourselves, grateful for 2021, let's see you again in 2022!
