Have you ever felt empty, tired and helpless in this society where money is paramount and greed is dominant? Have you ever dreamed of a spiritual home: be indifferent to fame and fortune, stay away from falsehood, throw away disguise and return to nature! When we complain that we have no friends and no true feelings around us; When we no longer believe in love, affection and friendship; When we are constantly being changed by the society and constantly changing the society, we seem to have entered a vicious circle. The beautiful things are getting farther and farther away from us, and our responsibility and sincerity are abandoned by us!
In this realistic virtual world, we are far away and unfamiliar, but we are also eager for spiritual comfort. We dream of a space where we can freely vent our anger, release pressure, relieve fatigue, and gain peace and tranquility of mind.
Life is a big stage, and people who sing operas are lunatics, but people who watch plays are fools. After we have performed this crazy and silly play; When we laugh and curse; When we leave the hustle and bustle for a while, please give the soul a habitat in the solitude and meditation of a pot of incense, a pot of tea and a ray of music!
Second, the spiritual habitat. Recommended:
Spiritual habitat
The study is not big, but it is clear with the heart; There are not many books, but honesty is the spirit. Three years ago, I finally had my own study, which was elegant and tidy.
My study is not big, only about 8 square meters. This area seems unremarkable, but for me, it has filled the gap and made up for the regret. The interior furnishings are very simple. There are not many heavy hardcover books and rare ancient books in the white vertical wall glass bookcase, and a large part of them have been married by their daughters as a special dowry, and there are few existing books. But despite this, as long as you calm down, you will get something, or doodle, or surf the internet, or enter the mountain of books, or dive into the sea, and enjoy yourself as you like.
A few days ago, my teenagers and sisters came to play, praising my study for its elegance and freshness, and the strong fragrance of books, which was quite enviable. They also said how messy their home was. I can't help laughing when I hear it, knowing that my friends are modest in promoting others and restraining themselves, but I still like to listen to good words. However, in my opinion, there is not an absolute indoor chaos and chaos. For example, a master who is immersed in learning, even if his desk is piled up in a "mess", is to attract more information. Such "mess" is a kind of beauty of knowledge precipitation, giving people a heavy feeling. However, we are ordinary people, and reading is only as an interest and a desire for knowledge. If we read a few books like this, we will make a small world in a mess, like a unkempt woman, and it will be too embarrassing. To be honest, I pay more attention to the appearance and image, not to mention this is a habitat for nourishing the soul!
so I refuse to leave all kinds of books lying around, and I will file them separately and in their proper places. In this way, it is convenient to take and use, and secondly, it will not be chaotic. I will hide the old books and unpopular books in the dark in the wooden door below. For some rare books of ancient books whose faces have long been gaunt due to years of wear and long-term touch, I will spend some time to beautify them, and the brand-new look will make people shine and be pleasing to the eye. Mr. Wang sometimes calls me boastful, which may be true, but I think it is a kind of harmony. So sometimes, in order to find a suitable position for a book, I will take pains to try and arrange it, and even put all my favorite prose books in the most conspicuous position, because I think these beautiful things should be paid more attention to by people.
I remember that when I was a child, I was born in a scholarly family, and I was helpless without a study at home. Especially when the Cultural Revolution "broke the capitalism", we were very afraid of things and scared ourselves. We turned in the precious wealth that our father had worked hard for a long time, and burned it. It was a pity that all the good books went up in smoke in an instant. Later, if you want to read such a book, you have to borrow it from others. After marriage, the bedside table is the first bookcase in my family. For a family of five and four college students, we don't have a study, so many books can't be put down. Cartons are used as bookcases and under the bed as stacks. If anyone's house leaks, it will suffer. Although we have moved several times and handled a large number, the study and bedroom have been mixed, which has brought great inconvenience to our lives.
Frankly speaking, I am the most uneducated one in my family, and my taste is not high, but I have always loved literature and books, and I always feel that the new bookcases are not very dry. Every June 6th, I move them out to see the sun and bask in mildew. I like the smell of the sun after being sunburned, I like books that are dry and firm and turn up noisily, and I like to use bookmarks when reading. Even if I don't, I always use business cards or small notes to mark them when I stop halfway. I never have the heart to crease the pages. I hate turning pages with my fingers, curling books, and I don't want to read crumpled and dirty rotten books. Even if the content is wonderful, it will turn my stomach, let alone make me an eyesore in the bookcase.
In the old days, due to the limitation of family conditions, I left a study complex. Now my study is small, but simple, accurate, fresh and elegant. The happiest thing is that there is a book of my own on the shelf-Ordinary Years. This is a collection of essays I have published, the crystallization of many years' hard work. Whenever I look at it, I know it warmly.
