Ma Weidu once said in an episode:
"Now people don't know how to play and have been kidnapped by the Internet. What would happen if you didn't have your phone today, what would happen if you didn't have WeChat?"
I think it's like losing my soul, and I don't know what to do.
To play, you need to learn. The game quotient refers to the ability to have fun in life.
People who play high quotient tend to understand life better and are more interesting.
For a while, my friend's mobile phone exploded and was sent for repair.
Without his mobile phone, he felt physically and mentally relieved, so he set up a lot of flags, read books, climbed mountains, watched exhibitions, and played what he wanted to play, and he was very excited after thinking about it.
When he picked up the book, read it for an hour, and the excitement fell, he began to be anxious about the information he couldn't receive, the hot spots he missed, the new dramas that were updated, the funny jokes, and the activities of the game.....
These things that he is used to on a daily basis are crawling and interfering in his brain like ants at this time.

He became frightened, unusually irritable, unable to read the book, and opened the door and did not know where to go. Eventually, I finally crashed, and the next day I borrowed a spare phone and happily returned to the online world.
Without our phones, we become "can't play" people.

People who can really play are very pure, and playing is their attitude to life, regardless of form and money.
Without the Internet, they wander the streets, hang out with friends, play games in the countryside, and read books in bookstores. When you get there, you get on the bus at random and get off at random.
Everything can be played, everything is fun.

I've always wanted to have a friend like Wang Cuncun.
One day, he wanted to stir-fry a green vegetable for a friend, and most people bought it directly from the vegetable market and fried it, but he wasn't.
He first grows vegetables to show his friends how they grow, and then he goes to make a pot, a bowl, a kitchen knife, and a cutting board. It wasn't until the day the vegetables were ripe that he called his friend over, and when he was about to stir-fry, his friend asked, "Is the fire for stir-frying your own food?"
So Wang Cuncun went to the suburbs again and spent a day drilling wood to make fire. Finally, the dish is fried.

To outsiders, he is boring, but to me, he has a lot of personality.
When he learned that his neighbor was going to move, he put a bunch of sunflowers at the door of people's homes, and changed the name of WiFi to "plant some melon seeds and eat them on the road", hoping that the neighbors would accept this good intention.
In the end, the neighbor also gave him a few bunches of cotton when he moved away, cotton flower language is to cherish the people around him, Wang Cun Village was very moved, he according to the traditional craft of playing quilts, with these bunches of cotton to play a small quilt, to commemorate.

He was even a little romantic, using the CPU of a waste computer to refine gold, and using a "diamond" made of broken glass to make a "diamond ring" for his daughter-in-law. Optical fibers are also used to build glowing Eiffel Tower, Burj Khalifa, and the Empire State Building.
The more homogeneous the era, the more individuality is needed. When everyone falls into boredom, those who can play are not afraid of loneliness and boredom.
Everyone is looking for a way to communicate with the world, and playing the world while playing is one of them. Make friends who can play, we can jump out of the trivial daily life, see the different ways of playing in the world, and find the long-lost fun.
So Wang Cun often said: "I am Cun Cun, I hope you are happy." ”

There are always people who say that you can only play if you have money and leisure.
However, when we were in our childhood, we had no money or a mobile phone, but we could find a lot of fun in the countryside and play in the dirt until the sun went down.
It is true that it is true that you can play more and better with money, but you can also play without money.
As Yu Qian said: "Play is a kind of mentality, a kind of practice, and it has little to do with money." ”
Therefore, Yu Qian, the master of play, is most willing to talk about childhood anecdotes. Even if he has a private zoo, plays movies, rocks, raises animals, and plays bracelets.....
He wrote a lot of childhood events in the book, such as shooting Fang Bao, fan ingots, rolling hoops, smoking traitors, playing magnetic films, playing pinball, throwing sandbags, and jumping rubber bands...... The toys were made by themselves, and a group of children chased them through the streets from daylight to sunset, skipping class to go fishing in the countryside and save money to buy birds.
At that time, I was a childhood where I could play everywhere I saw and had fun everywhere I went.
◀ Childhood fun facts
Today's children are also very good at playing, and their hand games are not inferior to adults, and their special interests are also professional-level, and there are all kinds of high-end toys. But it always feels like something is missing.
Maybe the times are moving too fast and the joie de vivre is getting lost on the road, or maybe people are too tired to discover the fun things.
People who can really play can find the joy of small life.
They can make themselves entertain and liven up the air around them.
In their eyes, life is much more fun and the world is much more interesting.

When I knew that Huang Yongyu was still driving a Ferrari at the age of 93, I knew that he was still young.
He raised lotuses, owls, monkeys, bears, everything. Playing woodcuts, drawing, writing poems, anything. It also plays with the heart into the painting, all of which are vivid.
What grows is age, and what remains unchanged is childlike innocence.
So, he took the driver's license test at the age of 50, went abroad to study at the age of 70, became a fashion model at the age of 80, was still practicing boxing in his 80s, and could still drive a sports car at the age of 90.
When he was 80 years old, he heard from the villagers that a chemical plant had polluted the Tuojiang River, and he said angrily: "I'll take a few people to '' them." In the end, he smashed someone's office, and after smashing it, he said: "Take care of nature." ”
Being young is still his optimism. At that time, Huang Yongyu was locked up in the cowshed and had to be leashed every day, but he didn't cry out for pain or begged for mercy. When someone else hits, he silently counts until he counts to 124.
I went back and told my wife, "I got 124 hits today." His wife cried, but he comforted, "I believe it won't go on forever." ”
Huang Yongyu admits that he has never aged age, compared to young people, he is in his 90s, he never maintains health, should play, eat, exercise, and eat fruits and vegetables.
When life is trivial and boring, look at the friends around you who can play, you see them:
Busy and happy, the world is like a new life, and he is like a child, living all his life, and he doesn't know that old age is coming.
Always have fire in your heart, and live wantonly.
Not for anything else, just because the world is worth it!
Stills from "The Reader".
There are many boring moments in life, and you have to break the habit to find some fun.
I always want to pick a sunny Sunday, spend 2 yuan, choose a random number, take the bus according to the corresponding number, and then get off randomly. See how the locals live, those streets and alleys, wet markets, and children playing games.
30,000 days of life to follow the rules, spend a day playing randomly.
It doesn't seem like an exaggeration.
