Outside the window, it's raining,
The sound of rain gurgling, knocking on the window,
Inexplicably, some peace of mind,
Like living by the stream.
Zhang Chao wrote in "Shadow of Dreams":
"Rain is a thing that can make the day short and the night long."
In fact, rain is just rain,
But those who listen to the rain are in a state of mind.
Love rainy days,
Especially the rain of late spring,
Gentle and tender, lingering and affectionate,
It's like holding an entire spring in your arms.
Endless drizzle fell,
Cover up the hustle and bustle, clean up the dust,
Floating like a dream, for joy geometry?
And go listen to the rain, and seek pleasure,
And rejoice, and peace of mind.
01
And go listen to the rain and watch the flowers bloom and fall
Masakazume April,
Flowers bloom and fall everywhere.
Falling red paving path, light rain,
Pear blossoms pale white, willow dark blue,
Zi Yan hong, will eventually be goodbye.
I think back then, in the Grand View Garden,
Baoyu could not bear to be trampled on the ground full of peach blossoms,
Took the petals and shook them into the pool,
Let it flutter and flow out of the Qinfang Gate.
But Dai Yu was afraid that the flowing water would be polluted,
Took the flower hoe, the flower sac, and took the broom,
Swept, put in a silk bag, buried in the flower mound,
Just ask for one to be clean.
Cherish the flowers, sincerely.
And now, tired of running for life,
Rare opportunities to watch a flower bloom quietly,
Perhaps, only on rainy days,
I can stop for a moment and listen to the rain and enjoy the flowers.
I really want to get drunk on the boat,
A man wanders into the depths of the flowers,
Seeing the smoke and rain hazy, the green mountains are stacked,
Flying rain falls in the flowers, do not remember the time and road,
Indulge in it, you can soothe one or two
I regret not having a good time enjoying the flowers this spring.
Or, looking for a no-man's corner,
Looking at a peony, the national color of the city,
Dyed with a little rain, more gorgeous,
You can also admire the smoke willows and listen to the warblers.
Lin Qingxuan said: "People who often have a flower season in their hearts,
It's good to look at all times.
Even if the flowers are all gone, there is something to be seen. ”
Everyone regrets the flowers and complains about the early return of spring,
As far as flowers are concerned, flowers fall and blossom sometimes,
Even if it is blown into snow by the spring wind, it is also willing.
The same is true of man in this life, and everything has a fate,
There is nothing outside the heart, and go to listen to the rain and enjoy the flowers,
Dedicate yourself to every moment,
What you want will come.
02
And go listen to the rain, drink tea and read
"Spring rain should read, summer rain should play chess,
Autumn rain should be checked, winter rain should be drunk. ”
It's raining at the turn of spring and summer,
It is best to drink tea and read.
Let the rain outside the window suddenly be loud and small,
Boil a pot of water, grab a pinch of spring tea,
The boiling water washes away, and the curled leaves slowly stretch,
Tea smoke, take a small sip,
The clear and shallow bitterness ripples on the tip of the tongue,
The tea soup enters the throat, the aroma is overflowing, and the mind is clear.
The smell of tea, the sound of rain,
I still have a spare book in my hand.
Read the Six Notes of Fusheng, follow Yunniang,
Reading poems, picking stones, admiring the moon, joint sentences, traveling in spring,
Those forgotten pleasures, awaken again.
The night rain outside the window is endless,
Spring in the house, lover on the side,
It is advisable to read the collections of flowers;
If there is a rose swaying in the rain,
Bees and butterflies fly wildly, are in youth, who can not get drunk,
It is advisable to read "Dream of the Red Chamber" carefully.
Or, quarantine at home,
Sitting still, anxious,
Sorrow comes and goes, as if to read,
This is how Tolstoy relieved his sorrows,
"There is no way out of the worries, and it is raining outside the window,
Sitting on the couch, eating chocolate, reading Dickens,
The mood will get better again and compromise with the world. ”
In the late spring, a curtain of rain,
A cup of tea, a book,
It's the most entertaining,
The sound of rain sends affection, hot tea is refreshing,
The book becomes more and more worried.
03
And go listen to the rain and sit quietly
Rainy days,
There are also times when you are lazy,
I don't want to enjoy the flowers, I don't want to read,
I just want to sit still and listen to the rain.
Meditation is not mysterious,
The ancients took it as everyday,
Zhu Xi advocated: half a day of meditation, half a day of reading.
In meditation, concentration and wisdom are born.
Su Shi also said:
There is nothing to do with this meditation, one day is like two days.
So it seems, meditating and listening to the rain,
What a match made in heaven.
I like a scene in the movie "No Questions Asked":
In a thatched hut in Kunming,
The students of Southwest United University are concentrating on their studies.
It's just that the rain outside the window is getting louder and louder, covering the professor's voice,
Even if he raises his voice, it will not help,
So he simply wrote it on the blackboard
"Sit still and listen to the rain" four words, turn around and sit down,
Listen to the rain with your students.
This tranquility and warmth is really admirable.
Nowadays, the epidemic is everywhere,
nucleic acids, isolation, home work,
Mortgages, car loans, breadwinners,
In order to live, everyone is struggling to support,
At this point, even if you are worried, it will not help.
If you don't want to settle down,
Listen to the rain, sit for a while,
Gather up the chaotic mood and sort it out,
"Even if he is shocked by the waves, his heart will always be a peach and plum spring wind."
04
And listen to the rain, and find peace of mind
In such a moment,
I would also like to talk about a rain encountered by Su Dongpo.
On the spring day of that year, it rained heavily on the way,
Fellow travelers either complain or avoid the rain,
He was the only one who groaned and walked slowly, shouting:
"Bamboo sticks and shoes are lighter than horses, who is afraid?"
A cloud of smoke and rain is a life of peace. ”
Su Shi's life,
Bumps and sorrows, from a lot,
But he can always turn suffering into wine, food,
No matter how bad the outside world is,
There is always a way to reassure yourself.
May you, when nothing happens,
Sit still and listen to the rain, and find joy,
When there is something to do, sit still and listen to the rain, and find peace of mind,
In the midst of the great waves, there is no worry or fear!
