"There is only one kind of heroism in the world, that is, to recognize the truth of life and still love life."
This is a sentence written by Roman Rowland in Michelangelo's biography.
And this sentence does not know how many people who have struggled in the swamp of life have been inspired, nor how many real heroes have been achieved.
So, what exactly is the truth of life? What kind of people do we want to be in life?
Zhihu netizen @ human grass and trees gave this answer:
"The truth of life is to tell you that everything is worthless, just in your choices.
At this point, it becomes extremely difficult to continue to choose heroism, because it is much more difficult than cynicism, so this becomes true heroism.
What kind of attitude to life?
Heroism before recognizing the truth is the continuation of value on the basis of great value.
Heroism after recognizing the truth is to create great value in nothingness. ”
As @Human Grass said: "Those who can create great value in nothingness may truly be called heroes." ”
And in the ups and downs of the world, how many such heroes have you seen?
In maijia's "Sea of Life", the "colonel" who still insists on himself after seeing the truth of life and can still live bravely can be regarded as a real hero.
Be indifferent when you are proud
The young colonel was spirited.
He was a leader when he studied carpentry, and when he was young and clever, he was favored by a Kuomintang battalion commander, entered the army, and was promoted from guard all the way to battalion commander.
During his recuperation in the hospital, he learned surgery and saved more and more people, and won a reputation of "golden knife".
At this time, although the colonel gained fame and fortune, he was very indifferent.
Once, a woman from a chief took a cart and brought a generous gift of an entire rattan box to thank the colonel.
The colonel did not accept it, and said that one more box in the chaos of soldiers was a burden.
The woman refused to give up, saying that all valuable things could be kept for a long time.
The colonel was very firm, saying that his life was not worth anything this year, let alone anything, and after saying that, he sent the box directly back to the car and issued an eviction order.
When he returned to his hometown to visit his relatives, the colonel brought back a box of gold bars, gold dollar treasures, and gold bracelets to his mother, but her mother, like before him, resolutely did not want it.
The colonel had no choice but to take them away intact, put them on the shelf, and finally simply use them all, and ask the goldsmith to make a set of shiny and dangling surgical instruments.
Some people, with a reputation, put up a shelf, and although the colonel is famous, he does not care about this.
Whether the other party is a small soldier or a general, a common man or a high-ranking official, as long as it is a patient, he will heal.
People who are indifferent to fame and fortune can often be spoiled and not shocked, not moved by money, and do not change their original intentions in the face of fame and fortune.
The Colonel did so in the high light of his life.
Even if wealth and fame are added to the body, they still act in accordance with their hearts.
The Tang Dynasty poet Shang Yan wrote in the "Gift of village gong":
People who are blinded by fame and fortune are often more likely to fail.
On the other hand, those who are indifferent when they are proud, they do not take fame and fortune as the only pursuit, but it is easier to not change their original intentions.
In this world, only by being indifferent to temporary success can people go further.
Only by letting go of the thoughts of disturbing one after another and indifferent to fame and fortune can we have a clear vision and get rid of the shackles.
Our lives, since the day of our birth, have been like a flat boat, setting sail impermanently.
On the road ahead, no one will know that everything will become calm.
But the people of the Mai family said:
"The figure is like a coin with two sides. Encountering the good side is your luck, meeting the bad side is your obscurity, if both sides are encountered, it is inevitable to sigh. ”
No one can always be smooth sailing. When you are forced by the hardships of life, the tide of the times pushes you into the whirlpool, and you feel unbearable, read these books!
People must know how to let go, they must know how to forgive, they must know how to forgive, they must know how to forgive themselves.
Life always has ups and downs.
You don't have the power to change what has happened, and there's no way to fix it, so give up.
Let go of your worries and face reality.
Not to go with the flow, but to enjoy. But when it can't change, and anxiety doesn't help, let it pass!
When a person is worried in the thick fog, it is likely to plunge headlong into the reef of the sea and put himself in a more dangerous situation.
In the case of not being able to discern the direction, it is better to forget the trouble caused by the fog, carefully drive the boat, and move forward smoothly.
Even if you walk very slowly now, when the fog clears, you can continue to hurry.
Sometimes, slow down to make yourself go further!
Life is the sea, dare to die is not courage, to live only need courage
This is a very memorable sentence in "The Sea of Life".
The pressure in today's society is so great that many people give up their lives for a variety of reasons. But yes, we came to this world is the greatest luck, life is so long, we have relatives, have friends, if because of some setbacks to give up on themselves, or even want to live lightly, that is the most cowardly behavior, giving up and daring to die is never courage, but escape, no matter how difficult it is, we must live well, try to overcome difficulties, find a breakthrough, this is the courage of the person!
The so-called heroism is nothing more than a deep love for it after recognizing the truth of life
Life is not only a chai rice oil and salt, but also a poem of suffering.
The truth of life is very cruel, but we still have to learn to love it, because in addition to cruelty, life also brings us happiness everywhere, we must have a pair of eyes to find beauty, and an open-minded attitude, so that our lives will be happy!
Life kisses me with pain, and I give life a song!
Happiness is to nourish one's own heart, not to nourish other people's eyes.
Now more and more people are living in the eyes of others. Shopping, eating, studying, finding a job, getting married, all need to look at the eyes of others. They think they will be happy, but they don't know how to live according to other people's ideas, and they will never be happy.
A happy lifestyle is a lifestyle that makes your mind comfortable and happy.
People must learn to let go, and letting go is a kind of kindness that spares others, and it is also the wisdom that spares themselves.
In this life, people have ups and downs.
When faced with what has already happened, neither the ability to change it nor the way to solve it, it is better to choose to let go.
Let go of your anxious self and accept the facts in front of you.
It's not about going with the flow and indulging in it. But when you can't change it, when anxiety can't play any role, let it go!
When a person is shrouded in fog, staring at the fog and worrying, it is easier to crash into the reef in the sea and put himself in a more dangerous situation.
When you can't see the direction clearly, it is better to forget the troubles caused by the fog for a while, and drive the boat carefully and cautiously, and move steadily.
Even if you walk slowly at the moment, when the fog clears, you can catch up.
Sometimes, slow down, in order to better travel!
Life is the sea of the sea, after the tide falls is the rising tide.
What is life like?
I really like a quote from Forrest Gump:
"Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what the next one will taste like."
The "Colonel" in Mai Jia's "Life Sea" is also the same as Forrest Gump, with a life of ups and downs and legends.
Instead of a life that became smoother and smoother like Forrest Gump, he fell into the bitter sea of life and drifted and floated.
Dong Qing once said that if I were to use a poem to describe the feeling of reading "Life Sea and Sea", it would be "looking back at the place where it has always been, and there is no wind or rain or sunshine."
Life can't escape it, we might as well fall in love with it! This is also the most important truth that the book "Life Sea Sea" tells everyone.
The author Mai Jia once said, "What I want to write about is the luck born in despair, the morality that is outstanding in hardship." I want to set up another mountain, go back to my childhood, go back to my hometown, to decipher the code of the human heart and human nature. ”
Mo Yan said: "The charm of the novel is that it can write non-existent characters as if they were our friends, and Mai Jia's "Life Sea" is so charming. ”
After reading "Life Sea", Dong Qing said: "I sat alone in the study, facing the computer. It was getting darker, but I didn't feel the strength to get up and turn on the lights. The blue light of the computer was reflected on my face, and I couldn't stop crying. ”
Gao Xiaosong also said that when he read this work, his heart was full of shock and surprise, and he was shocked that he had not seen such an exciting work for a long time.
Yang Yang said: "This book gives people the strength to meet the wind and waves, face the hardships, and also have the courage to do their best, burn youth, and live a different life." ”
The core content of "Life Sea" is the grasp and transmission of the fate of human nature.
Life is a journey of twists and turns, only after you plunge into it and experience the bitter sea of life, can you experience the taste of life and get real liberation under the wash of time.
In the eyes of ten thousand people, there are ten thousand Hamlets. The charm of excellent works lies in its multi-faceted nature, and "Life Sea" is also such a work. Presumably, after reading this divine work, you can also harvest what you want and seek benefits and avoid harms for the future life.
Here, I sincerely recommend this book to everyone. Whether it is for you now, children in school, or adults entering middle age, this book will have some touches and gains, so that you can learn to "reconcile" and regain the courage to face life.
"Life Sea Sea", "Decryption", "Dark Calculation", "Wind Sound" 4 books add up to a total of 139 yuan, a meal money, but can bring you different feelings. And it can also be passed on from generation to generation, collected or sent to friends, which is very valuable!
